  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Percentage of Subjects With at Least One Adverse Event (AE) During the Study Period of 8 Years [From first dose of CZP up to 8 years]

      An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a subject or trial subject that is administered a drug or biologic (medicinal product) or that is using a medical device. The event does not necessarily have a causal relationship with that treatment or usage. First dose of CZP was at Baseline of one of the feeder studies C87011 [NCT00548834] or C87014 [NCT00544154] for subjects randomized to CZP, or at First Visit (Week 0) of this study for subjects randomized to Placebo.

      An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a subject or trial subject that is administered a drug or biologic (medicinal product) or that is using a medical device.

      The HAQ-DI assesses the degree of difficulty experienced in eight domains (Dressing and Grooming, Arising, Eating, Walking, Hygiene, Reach, Gripping, Other Activities) of daily living activities using 20 questions. The HAQ-DI is calculated by summing the domain scores and dividing them by the number of domains. It ranges from 0 (no difficulty) to 3 (unable to do). Negative values indicate an improvement from Baseline to the Post-Baseline Visit with larger negative values showing a better improvement.

    12. Secondary Outcome
    Title Change From Baseline in Health Assessment Questionnaire-Disability Index (HAQ- DI) at Completion Visit or Early Withdrawal Visit
    Description The HAQ-DI assesses the degree of difficulty experienced in eight domains (Dressing and Grooming, Arising, Eating, Walking, Hygiene, Reach, Gripping, Other Activities) of daily living activities using 20 questions. The HAQ-DI is calculated by summing the domain scores and dividing them by the number of domains. It ranges from 0 (no difficulty) to 3 (unable to do). Negative values indicate an improvement from Baseline to the Post-Baseline Visit with larger negative values showing a better improvement.
