About

The purpose of this study is to assess whether or not adalimumab (Humira®) can influence pain medication in participants with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and ankylosing spondylitis (AS) with or without comorbidities, which do not constitute a contraindication for adalimumab as stated in the released summary of product characteristics. Therefore it shall be evaluated if pain medication which is used in these participants is changed, reduced or stopped due to adalimumab treatment.

Full description

This is a non-interventional, observational study in which Humira (adalimumab) is prescribed in the usual manner in accordance with the terms of the local marketing authorization with regards to dose, population and indication. The assignment of the patient to a Humira-containing regimen has to be decided in advance and has to be current practice. The prescription of Humira is clearly separated from the decision to include the participant in this study.
