    16. Baseline and Postbaseline Rheumatoid Factor Levels [At BL (week 0), weeks 24, 48, 96, 144, and 192.]

      Rheumatoid factor (RF or RhF) is an autoantibody (antibody directed against an organism's own tissues) most relevant in rheumatoid arthritis. It is an antibody against the Fc portion of Immunoglobulin (Ig)G, which is itself an antibody. RF and IgG join to form immune complexes which contribute to the disease process. RF levels are considered positive if value is >20 and considered negative if value is <20. Please see outcome 20 for change from BL data.

    17. Change From Baseline in Rheumatoid Factor Levels at Weeks 24, 48, 96, 144, and 192 [At BL (week 0), weeks 24, 48, 96, 144, and 192.]

      RF is an autoantibody (antibody directed against an organism's own tissues) most relevant in rheumatoid arthritis. It is an antibody against the Fc portion of Immunoglobulin (Ig)G, which is itself an antibody. RF and IgG join to form immune complexes which contribute to the disease process. RF levels are considered positive if value is >20 and considered negative if value is <20. Please refer to outcome 19 for BL and PBL values.

    18. Number of Participants Who Were Positive for Anti-abatacept and Anti-CTLA4-T Antibodies [At BL (week 0), weeks 24, 48, 72, 96, 120, 144, 168, and 192.]

      Validated enzyme-linked immunoassay (ELISA) method was used to measure anti-abatacept and anti-CTLA4-T antibody levels. For anti-abatacept antibody ELISA, a sample was considered seropositive if it had a titer of 400 or greater and if immunodepletion was observed. The responses that were negative in initial screen were reported as seronegative with a value of < 400. A sample was considered positive in CTLA4-T antibody ELISA if it had a titer of 25 or greater and if immunodepletion was observed.

    19. Abatacept PK Parameter: Total Body Clearance [Samples were collected predose at week 8, 12, 16, 24; end of infusion at week 12; and at week 13-15 visits.]

      Total body clearance is the rate and extent at which the drug is eliminated from the body. The clearance of a drug is used to understand the processes involved in drug elimination, distribution and metabolism.

    20. Abatacept PK Parameter: Area Under the Serum Concentration-time Curve at Steady State [Samples were collected predose at week 8, 12, 16, 24; end of infusion at week 12; and at week 13-15 visits.]

      Area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUCss) at steady state for each dosing interval was determined using the linear trapezoidal rule.

    21. Abatacept PK Parameter: Maximum Serum Concentration at Steady State [Samples were collected predose at week 8, 12, 16, 24; end of infusion at week 12; and at week 13-15 visits.]

      Maximum plasma concentration is the maximum observed serum drug concentration at steady state (Css max).

    22. Abatacept PK Parameter: Minimum Plasma Concentration at Steady State [Samples were collected predose at week 8, 12, 16, 24; end of infusion at week 12; and at week 13-15 visits.]

      Minimum Plasma Concentration (Cmin) is the minimum observed serum drug concentration at steady state.

    Outcome Measures

    1. Primary Outcome
    Title Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AE), Serious Adverse Events (SAE), and Discontinuations Due to AEs
    Description AE is defined as any new untoward medical occurrence or worsening of a pre-existing medical condition. SAE is any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose results in death, is life-threatening, requires inpatient hospitalization or causes prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, is a cancer, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect, results in the development of drug dependency or drug abuse, is an important medical event. Both subjective and objective AEs and SAEs are included.
    Time Frame From initiation of the study drug (31 Mar 2008) to data cutoff (27 Dec 2010). The overall mean duration of exposure to the study drug was approximately 3 years (34.3 ± 10.7 months).

    Title Percentage of Participants Who Achieved a Reduction of At Least 0.3 Units From Baseline in Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ) at Weeks 24, 48, 96, 144, 192
    Description The disability section of the full HAQ includes 20 questions to assess physical functions in 8 domains: dressing, arising, eating, walking, hygiene, reach, grip and common activities. The questions are evaluated on a 4-point scale: 0=without any difficulty, 1= with some difficulty, 2= with much difficulty, and 3= unable to do. Higher scores= greater dysfunction. A disability index was calculated by summing the worst scores in each domain and dividing by the number of domains answered. Clinically meaningful HAQ response=an improvement of at least 0.3 units from BL in HAQ.
    Time Frame At BL (week 0), weeks 24, 48, 96, 144, and 192.

    Description The SF-36 covers 8 health dimensions including 4 physical subscales (physical function, role functioning [physical], bodily pain, and general health) and 4 mental subscales (vitality, social function, role emotional, and mental health). All subscales were scored using norm-based methods that standardized the scores to a mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 10 in the general population. The scores range from 0 to 100, with a higher score indicating better quality of life. Improvements of > 3 points were considered clinically meaningful.Please see outcome 14 for change from BL data.

    Title Baseline and Postbaseline Rheumatoid Factor Levels
    Description Rheumatoid factor (RF or RhF) is an autoantibody (antibody directed against an organism's own tissues) most relevant in rheumatoid arthritis. It is an antibody against the Fc portion of Immunoglobulin (Ig)G, which is itself an antibody. RF and IgG join to form immune complexes which contribute to the disease process. RF levels are considered positive if value is >20 and considered negative if value is <20. Please see outcome 20 for change from BL data.
    Time Frame At BL (week 0), weeks 24, 48, 96, 144, and 192.
