Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 6 Mar 2025

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The objective of this study is to identify a panel of immunological molecular and cellular biomarkers able to predict the success of major dose-reduction or discontinuation of abatacept in rheumatoid arthritis patients

Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Prior treatment

  • RA negative for ACPA (anti-citrullinated proteins antibodies) or not fulfilling ACR/EULAR criteria

Age

  • Age \< 18 years

Other

  • Abatacept discontinuation due to serious adverse event, loss of efficacy or pregnancy project

Who the study is looking for

  • Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients (\> pr = 18 years) fulfilling the 2010 ACR/EULAR criteria
  • Associated to high levels (\> 3 x upper limit of normal in UA/ml) of ACPA measured by the usual anti-CCP(cyclic citrullinated proteins)2 test at the start of abatacept treatment
  • Receiving IV (intravenous) or SC (subcutaneous) abatacept alone or in combination with a conventional Disease Modyfying AntiRheumatic Drugs (cDMARD) (methotrexate, leflunomide, sulfasalasin in monotherapy or in combination) according to the usual scheme or in tapering phase
  • Without intra-articular injections of corticosteroids during the last 6 months prior to down-titration of abatacept
  • Having discontinued corticosteroids at he time of entrance in the study
  • In deep remission (Disease Activity Score (DAS) 28 ESR (or CRP) \< 2.6 without clinical synovitis) since at least 1 year
  • In sonographic remission at the time of enrollment (absence of PD (Power Doppler)-positive synovitis on 28 joints defined by a score \< 2 on a 0-3 semi-quantitative scale for each joint)
