Rheumatoid Arthritis Clinical Trial
Official title:
Methotrexate Polyglutamate Levels as a Marker for the Clinical Outcome in the Treatment of Rheumatoid Arthritis A Multicenter, Randomized, Double-blind, Controlled Phase IV Trial
The primary objective is to determine whether erythrocyte polyglutamate levels are associated with objective clinical response in patients with rheumatoid arthritis after oral administration of low-dose methotrexate.The secondary aim of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of standard dose methotrexate versus a higher starting dose.

Primary | DAS-28 (Disease Activity Score in 28 Joints) | DAS stands for "Disease Activity Score" and is a measure of the activity of rheumatoid arthritis. In Europe the DAS is the recognized standard in research and clinical practice. The following parameters are included in the calculation: Number of joints tender to the touch (TEN) Number of swollen joints (SW) Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) Patient assessment of disease activity (VAS; mm) The DAS-28 is evaluated using a scale: 0 - 3.2: low disease activity 3.2 - 5.1: moderate disease activity > 5.1: severe disease activity |
