ALSASP: Influence of Therapeutic Education in Patients With Joint Inflammation Treated With a Biological Treatment
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
To describe, with a patient reported score (BIOSECURE), the influence of an approved therapeutic education program (TEP) in patients with joint inflammation requiring a biological treatment initiation.
The hypothesis is that patients attending the TEP will display better cognitive and adaptation competences than patients with no TEP.
Patient's reported quality of life, disease related stress management, treatment adherence, socio-demographic factors, biological home administration modalities and if the biologic treatment is maintained at 12 months, will also be described.

Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Therapeutic Education Program Patient randomized in this arm will attend a 1 day long validated Therapeutic Education Program. This program will take place within 6 months after biologic treatment initiation. |
Other: Education program
Patient will participate to a education program.
|
No Intervention: No therapeutic Education Program Patient randomized in this arm will not attend a Therapeutic Education Program within 12 months after biologic treatment initiation. |
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- BIOSECURE patient self-questionnaire [Change from Baseline Biosecure's score at 6 months and at 12 month after biological treatment initiation]
Patients will address questions and role play scenario evaluating cognitive and adaptive competences. The Biosecure score is between 0 and 100.
