Korea Xeljanz Post-marketing Surveillance for Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis
South Korea10 participantsStarted 2024-04-12
Plain-language summary
This study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of Xeljanz in Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA) patients in routine clinical practice in Korea. JIA patients experience persistent joint pain, swelling and stiffness. This is a prospective observational study.
Xeljanz is a JAK inhibitor. It was first approved in 2014 for rheumatoid arthritis patients in Korea. The ministry of Food and Drug Safety in Korea mandates for a drug manufacturer to report the post-marketing surveillance after drug's approval or indication extension. This study is to see the safety and effectiveness of Xeljanz in Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis patients in routine clinical practice in Korea.
This study is seeking patients who:
* Are 2 to less than 18 years of age;
* Are given Xeljanz for the treatment of JIA.
The study sponsor will monitor patients' treatment experience for up to 44 weeks. This will help assess the safety and effects of this study medicine.

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
