| Abstract | Background Adalimumab was effective in treating patients with nonradiographic axial spondyloarthritis (nr-axSpA) in the 12-week ABILITY-1 trial. We present long-term efficacy and safety results of adalimumab from the open-label ABILITY-1 extension, including the relationship between clinical and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) remission and impact of sustained clinical remission on physical function. Methods Patients received adalimumab 40 mg every other week or placebo for 12 weeks, then open-label adalimumab for up to 144 weeks. Clinical and safety data were collected through 3 years, and MRI data were collected until 2 years. Analyses were performed in the total population and subpopulation with positive MRI and/or elevated C-reactive protein (MRI/CRP-positive) at baseline. Clinical and MRI remission definitions included Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Score inactive disease (ASDAS ID; score < 1.3) and Spondyloarthritis Research Consortium of Canada (SPARCC) MRI score < 2 for sacroiliac joints (SIJs), spine, or both. Physical function was assessed using the Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index. Results Overall, 185 patients were included in the total population and 142 in the MRI/CRP-positive subpopulation; 65% and 68%, respectively, completed 3 years. Clinical, functional, and MRI improvements were similar and equally sustainable in both populations. At year 3, the percentages of patients in ASDAS ID in the MRI/CRP-positive subpopulation were 30%/33% (nonresponder imputation) and 46%/49% (observed) for those initially receiving adalimumab/placebo. At years 1 and 2, patients in ASDAS ID vs not had significantly greater improvements in SPARCC SIJ scores from baseline (P < 0.001). Among patients with baseline MRI scores ≥ 2 who achieved ASDAS ID at year 2, 44–68% also had MRI remission. Significantly more patients with sustained ASDAS ID through year 2 or 3 vs without achieved normal physical function (100% vs 48%; 100% vs 44%; both P < 0.001). No new safety concerns were observed. Conclusions In the ABILITY-1 study of nr-axSpA, adalimumab therapy provided sustained clinical and functional improvements through 3 years, as well as suppression of MRI axial inflammation, which was greater in patients who achieved clinical remission. Sustained clinical remission was associated with increased attainment of normal physical function. The safety profile of adalimumab was consistent with prior studies.

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
