Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Primary objective of this study is to compare patient satisfaction with the prefilled syringe (PFS) and the auto-injector (AI), two different delivery devices for etanercept after 12 weeks of use, using a 10 point scale form totally dissatisfied to totally satisfied.Secondary evaluation focus on the identification of patient and device attributes associated with patient satisfaction.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Device: Enbrel (etanercept)
  • Device: Etanercept
Phase 3

Detailed Description

For the measures of patient's satisfaction with and perceptions of, their device, standard Likert scales are used. This allows the magnitude of individual's perceptions and satisfaction to be measured on a multipoint scale anchored at each end. In addition, the study will describe patient perceptions related to device attributes, which are of importance in describing overall patient perception. A range of potential device benefits (e.g. ease of use, convenience, injection site pain, injection anxiety, injection confidence) will be captured using a questionnaire. The study aims to characterize patient attributes that will indicate when one device may result in greater patient satisfaction than another. Patient attributes are composed of patient characteristics (e.g. age, sex, demographics, social and educational status psychological status, willingness to self-manage, injection experience) and Psoriasis characteristics (e.g. disease severity, disease duration, co morbidities, prior treatment, quality of life). The study will also take the opportunity to measure health outcome measures as there may be important differences in cost of training and patient support between the two devices.

Outcome Measures

1. Primary Outcome
Title Participant Satisfaction With Injection Device Evaluated at Week 12 for Modified Intent-to-treat (mITT) Population
Description Participant satisfaction was assessed by asking the question, "How satisfied are you with your injection device?" using a 0-10 point scale, where 0= totally dissatisfied and 10= totally satisfied.
Time Frame Week 12

Outcome Measure Data

Analysis Population Description
Modified intent-to-treat (mITT) analysis population included all randomized participants who received at least 1 injection of study medication and had at least 1 efficacy evaluation. Here, 'N' (number of participants analyzed) is signifying those participants who were evaluable for this measure.

7. Secondary Outcome
Title Influence of Psychological Status as Assessed by Hospital Anxiety Depression (HAD) Score on Participant Satisfaction With Injection Device
Description Participant satisfaction scored on a 10-point ordinal scale: 0=totally dissatisfied to 10=totally satisfied. Higher score = greater satisfaction with injection device. Psychological status was assessed using participant rated questionnaire with 2 subscales for anxiety (HAD-A) and depression (HAD-D). Total score: 0 to 21 for each subscale; higher score = greater severity of symptoms. Score categories were based on quartiles of HAD-A and HAD-D scores observed. Participants were divided into quarters: =< 4, > 4 to 7, > 7 to 10, > 10 for HAD-A and =< 3, > 3 to 5, > 5 to 8, > 8 for HAD-D.

Title Influence of Willingness to Self Manage as Assessed by Patient Activation Measure (PAM) on Participant Satisfaction With Injection Device
Description Participant satisfaction was scored on a 10-point ordinal scale: 0=totally dissatisfied to 10=totally satisfied. Higher scores indicated greater satisfaction for the injection device. The 13-item short form of the PAM survey assessed participants' knowledge, skill, and confidence for self-management; calibrated scale score ranged from 0 to 100. Higher scores indicated more confidence in managing participants' condition and lifestyle. Score categories were defined based on quartiles of PAM scores observed.

PGA of Psoriasis scale ranges from 0 (no psoriasis) to 5 (severe disease). 'Clear' and 'Almost clear' includes all participants who were scored as a 0 or 1. Score categories were defined based on quartiles of PGA scores observed. Participants were divided into: =< 3, > 3 to 4, > 4.

Title Influence of Psychological Status Assessed by Hospital Anxiety Depression (HAD) Score on Participant Perception
Description Participant perception: assessed with the 26 questions of the device attribute and participant questionnaire. Based on the scores assigned to 26 questions, participants were divided into 3 clusters (very satisfied, satisfied, less satisfied) using multiple correspondence analysis and an ascending hierarchical classification. Psychological status: assessed using participant rated questionnaire with 2 subscales for anxiety (HAD-A) and depression (HAD-D). Total score: 0 to 21 for each subscale; higher score = greater severity of symptoms. HAD score was determined for each cluster of participants.

57. Secondary Outcome
Title Influence of Prior Systemic Treatment or Topical Medication for Psoriasis on Participant Perception
Description Participant perception was assessed with the 26 questions of the device attribute and participant questionnaire. Based on the scores assigned to the 26 questions, participants were divided into 3 clusters (very satisfied, satisfied and less satisfied) using a multiple correspondence analysis and an ascending hierarchical classification. Numbers of participants with and without prior experience of systemic or topical treatment for psoriasis were determined for each cluster of participants.
