RA - Efficacy - FACIT-F | HCP

FOR ADULTS WITH MODERATELY TO SEVERELY ACTIVE RA, IN COMBINATION WITH MTX

SIMPONI ARIA® IS THE FIRST AND ONLY ANTI-TNFα BIOLOGIC WITH FACIT-F IN THE LABEL

ACR20 response at Week 14 (primary endpoint): 59% of patients receiving SIMPONI ARIA® + MTX achieved ACR20 response vs 25% of patients receiving placebo + MTX (P<0.001)1,2

FACIT-Fatigue (FACIT-F) measures a patient's level of fatigue and tiredness over the last 7 days through a questionnaire consisting of 13 questions.2

Treatment with SIMPONI ARIA® resulted in improvement in fatigue as measured by FACIT-F3

The FACIT-F endpoint was not adjusted for multiplicity. Therefore, statistical significance has not been established.

Patients with a ≥4-point improvement in fatigue as measured by FACIT-F

facit-f-ra-2

The FACIT-F endpoint was not adjusted for multiplicity. Therefore, statistical significance has not been established.

The threshold for clinically meaningful improvement when assessing fatigue using FACIT-F in clinical trials was based on literature in RA that supports a change of ≥4-point improvement.

FACIT-F=Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Fatigue.

*The randomized (intent-to-treat) population was used for these analyses.

The same patients may not have responded at each time point.

Although not developed for patients with RA, FACIT-Fatigue has been used to assess fatigue in rheumatology, and its properties have been evaluated for the RA population.

§In rheumatology, a change of ≥4 points is considered meaningful and has been used as response definition in the RA population.

After Week 24, patients and doctors knew that all patients were on SIMPONI ARIA® (blinded active treatment), which may have affected the results.
