4.1 Therapeutic indications 
 
Rheumatoid arthritis 
 
Hyrimoz in combination with methotrexate, is indicated for: 
 
• the treatment of moderate to severe, active rheumatoid arthritis in adult patients when the 

response to disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs including methotrexate has been 
inadequate. 

• the treatment of severe, active and progressive rheumatoid arthritis in adults not 
previously treated with methotrexate. 

 
Hyrimoz can be given as monotherapy in case of intolerance to methotrexate or when 
continued treatment with methotrexate is inappropriate.

4 

 

(acne inversa) in adults and adolescents from 12 years of age with an inadequate response to 
conventional systemic HS therapy (see sections 5.1 and 5.2). 
 
Crohn’s disease 
 
Hyrimoz is indicated for treatment of moderately to severely active Crohn’s disease in adult patients 
who have not responded despite a full and adequate course of therapy with a corticosteroid and / or an 
immunosuppressant; or who are intolerant to or have medical contraindications for such therapies. 
 
Paediatric Crohn's disease 
 
Hyrimoz is indicated for the treatment of moderately to severely active Crohn's disease in paediatric 
patients (from 6 years of age) who have had an inadequate response to conventional therapy including 
primary nutrition therapy and a corticosteroid and / or an immunomodulator, or who are intolerant to 
or have contraindications for such therapies. 
 
Ulcerative colitis 
 
Hyrimoz is indicated for treatment of moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis in adult 
patients who have had an inadequate response to conventional therapy including corticosteroids and 
6-mercaptopurine (6-MP) or azathioprine (AZA), or who are intolerant to or have medical 
contraindications for such therapies. 
 
Uveitis 
 
Hyrimoz is indicated for the treatment of non-infectious intermediate, posterior and panuveitis in 
adult patients who have had an inadequate response to corticosteroids, in patients in need of 
corticosteroid-sparing, or in whom corticosteroid treatment is inappropriate. 
 
Paediatric uveitis 
 
Hyrimoz is indicated for the treatment of paediatric chronic non-infectious anterior uveitis in patients 
from 2 years of age who have had an inadequate response to or are intolerant to conventional therapy, 
or in whom conventional therapy is inappropriate. 
 
4.2 Posology and method of administration 
 
Hyrimoz treatment should be initiated and supervised by specialist physicians experienced in the 
diagnosis and treatment of conditions for which Hyrimoz is indicated. Ophthalmologists are advised 
to consult with an appropriate specialist before initiation of treatment with Hyrimoz (see section 4.4). 
Patients treated with Hyrimoz should be given the Patient Reminder Card. 
 
After proper training in injection technique, patients may self-inject with Hyrimoz if their 
physician determines that it is appropriate and with medical follow-up as necessary. 
 
During treatment with Hyrimoz, other concomitant therapies (e.g., corticosteroids and / or 
immunomodulatory agents) should be optimised. 
 
Posology 
 
Rheumatoid arthritis 
 
The recommended dose of Hyrimoz for adult patients with rheumatoid arthritis is 40 mg 
adalimumab administered every other week as a single dose via subcutaneous injection. 
Methotrexate should be continued during treatment with Hyrimoz. 
 
Glucocorticoids, salicylates, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, or analgesics can be continued 



5 

 

during treatment with Hyrimoz. Regarding combination with disease-modifying anti-rheumatic 
drugs other than methotrexate see sections 4.4 and 5.1. 
 
In monotherapy, some patients who experience a decrease in their response to Hyrimoz 40 mg 
every other week may benefit from an increase in dosage to 40 mg adalimumab every week or 
80 mg every other week. 
 
Available data suggest that the clinical response is usually achieved within 12 weeks of treatment. 
Continued therapy should be reconsidered in a patient not responding within this time period. 
 
Dose interruption 
 
There may be a need for dose interruption, for instance before surgery or if a serious infection occurs. 
 
Available data suggest that re-introduction of adalimumab after discontinuation for 70 days or 
longer resulted in the same magnitudes of clinical response and similar safety profile as before 
dose interruption. 
 
Ankylosing spondylitis, axial spondyloarthritis without radiographic evidence of AS and psoriatic 
arthritis 
 
The recommended dose of Hyrimoz for patients with ankylosing spondylitis, axial spondyloarthritis 
without radiographic evidence of AS and for patients with psoriatic arthritis is 40 mg adalimumab 
administered every other week as a single dose via subcutaneous injection. 
 
Available data suggest that the clinical response is usually achieved within 12 weeks of treatment. 
Continued therapy should be reconsidered in a patient not responding within this time period. 
 
Psoriasis 
 
The recommended dose of Hyrimoz for adult patients is an initial dose of 80 mg administered 
subcutaneously, followed by 40 mg subcutaneously given every other week starting one week after 
the initial dose. 
 
Continued therapy beyond 16 weeks should be carefully reconsidered in a patient not responding 
within this time period. 
 
Beyond 16 weeks, patients with inadequate response to Hyrimoz 40 mg every other week may benefit 
from an increase in dosage to 40 mg every week or 80 mg every other week. The benefits and risks of 
continued 40 mg weekly or 80 mg every other week therapy should be carefully reconsidered in a 
patient with an inadequate response after the increase in dosage (see section 5.1). If adequate response 
is achieved with 40 mg every week or 80 mg every other week, the dosage may subsequently be 
reduced to 40 mg every other week. 
 
Hidradenitis suppurativa 
 
The recommended Hyrimoz dose regimen for adult patients with hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is 
160 mg initially at Day 1 (given as four 40 mg injections in one day or as two 40 mg injections per 
day for two consecutive days), followed by 80 mg two weeks later at Day 15 (given as two 40 mg 
injections in one day). Two weeks later (Day 29) continue with a dose of 40 mg every week or 80 mg 
every other week (given as two 40 mg injections in one day). Antibiotics may be continued during 
treatment with Hyrimoz, if necessary. It is recommended that the patient should use a topical 
antiseptic wash on their HS lesions on a daily basis during treatment with Hyrimoz. 
 
Continued therapy beyond 12 weeks should be carefully reconsidered in a patient with no 
improvement within this time period.  
 



6 

 

Should treatment be interrupted, Hyrimoz 40 mg every week or 80 mg every other week may be re-
introduced (see section 5.1).  
 
The benefit and risk of continued long-term treatment should be periodically evaluated 
(see section 5.1). 
 
Crohn’s disease 
 
The recommended Hyrimoz induction dose regimen for adult patients with moderately to severely 
active Crohn’s disease is 80 mg at week 0 followed by 40 mg at week 2. In case there is a need for a 
more rapid response to therapy, the regimen 160 mg at week 0 (given as four 40 mg injections in one 
day or as two 40 mg injections per day for two consecutive days), 80 mg at week 2 (given as two 
40 mg injections in one day), can be used with the awareness that the risk for adverse events is higher 
during induction. 
 
After induction treatment, the recommended dose is 40 mg every other week via subcutaneous 
injection. Alternatively, if a patient has stopped Hyrimoz and signs and symptoms of disease recur, 
Hyrimoz may be re-administered. There is little experience from re-administration after more than 
8 weeks since the previous dose. 
 
During maintenance treatment, corticosteroids may be tapered in accordance with clinical practice 
guidelines.  
 
Some patients who experience decrease in their response to Hyrimoz 40 mg every other week 
may benefit from an increase in dosage to 40 mg Hyrimoz every week or 80 mg every other week. 
 
Some patients who have not responded by week 4 may benefit from continued maintenance therapy 
through week 12. Continued therapy should be carefully reconsidered in a patient not responding 
within this time period. 
 
Ulcerative colitis 
 
The recommended Hyrimoz induction dose regimen for adult patients with moderate to severe 
ulcerative colitis is 160 mg at week 0 (given as four 40 mg injections in one day or as two 40 mg 
injections per day for two consecutive days) and 80 mg at week 2 (given as two 40 mg injections in 
one day). After induction treatment, the recommended dose is 40 mg every other week via 
subcutaneous injection. 
 
During maintenance treatment, corticosteroids may be tapered in accordance with clinical practice 
guidelines.  
 
Some patients who experience decrease in their response to Hyrimoz 40 mg every other week 
may benefit from an increase in dosage to 40 mg Hyrimoz every week or 80 mg every other week. 
 
Available data suggest that the clinical response is usually achieved within 2–8 weeks of 
treatment. Hyrimoz therapy should not be continued in patients failing to respond within this 
time period. 
 
Uveitis 
 
The recommended dose of Hyrimoz for adult patients with uveitis is an initial dose of 80 mg, 
followed by 40 mg given every other week starting one week after the initial dose. There is limited 
experience in the initiation of treatment with adalimumab alone. Treatment with Hyrimoz can be 
initiated in combination with corticosteroids and/or with other non-biologic immunomodulatory 
agents. Concomitant corticosteroids may be tapered in accordance with clinical practice starting two 
weeks after initiating treatment with Hyrimoz.

4.4 Special warnings and precautions for use 
 
Traceability 
 
In order to improve traceability of biological medicinal products, the name and the batch number of 
the administered product should be clearly recorded. 
 
Infections 
 
Patients taking TNF-antagonists are more susceptible to serious infections. Impaired lung function 
may increase the risk for developing infections. Patients must therefore be monitored closely for 
infections, including tuberculosis, before, during and after treatment with Hyrimoz. Because the 
elimination of adalimumab may take up to four months, monitoring should be continued throughout 
this period. 
 
Treatment with Hyrimoz should not be initiated in patients with active infections including chronic or 
localised infections until infections are controlled. In patients who have been exposed to tuberculosis 
and patients who have travelled in areas of high risk of tuberculosis or endemic mycoses, such as 
histoplasmosis, coccidioidomycosis, or blastomycosis, the risk and benefits of treatment with 
Hyrimoz should be considered prior to initiating therapy (see Other opportunistic infections). 
 
Patients who develop a new infection while undergoing treatment with Hyrimoz should be monitored 
closely and undergo a complete diagnostic evaluation. Administration of Hyrimoz should be 



11 

 

discontinued if a patient develops a new serious infection or sepsis, and appropriate antimicrobial or 
antifungal therapy should be initiated until the infection is controlled. Physicians should exercise 
caution when considering the use of Hyrimoz in patients with a history of recurring infection or with 
underlying conditions which may predispose patients to infections, including the use of concomitant 
immunosuppressive medications. 
 
Serious infections 
 
Serious infections, including sepsis, due to bacterial, mycobacterial, invasive fungal, parasitic, viral, 
or other opportunistic infections such as listeriosis, legionellosis and pneumocystis have been reported 
in patients receiving adalimumab. 
 
Other serious infections seen in clinical trials include pneumonia, pyelonephritis, septic arthritis and 
septicaemia. Hospitalisation or fatal outcomes associated with infections have been reported. 
 
Tuberculosis 
 
Tuberculosis, including reactivation and new onset of tuberculosis, has been reported in patients 
receiving adalimumab. Reports included cases of pulmonary and extra-pulmonary (i.e. 
disseminated) tuberculosis. 
 
Before initiation of therapy with Hyrimoz, all patients must be evaluated for both active and inactive 
(“latent”) tuberculosis infection. This evaluation should include a detailed medical assessment of 
patient history of tuberculosis or possible previous exposure to people with active tuberculosis and 
previous and/or current immunosuppressive therapy. Appropriate screening tests (i.e. tuberculin skin 
test and chest X-ray) should be performed in all patients (local recommendations may apply). It is 
recommended that the conduct and results of these tests are recorded in the Patient Reminder Card. 
Prescribers are reminded of the risk of false negative tuberculin skin test results, especially in patients 
who are severely ill or immunocompromised. 
 
If active tuberculosis is diagnosed, Hyrimoz therapy must not be initiated (see section 4.3). 
 
In all situations described below, the benefit / risk balance of therapy should be very carefully 
considered. 
 
If latent tuberculosis is suspected, a physician with expertise in the treatment of tuberculosis should 
be consulted. 
 
If latent tuberculosis is diagnosed, appropriate treatment must be started with anti-tuberculosis 
prophylaxis treatment before the initiation of Hyrimoz, and in accordance with local 
recommendations. 
 
Use of anti-tuberculosis prophylaxis treatment should also be considered before the initiation of 
Hyrimoz in patients with several or significant risk factors for tuberculosis despite a negative test 
for tuberculosis and in patients with a past history of latent or active tuberculosis in whom an 
adequate course of treatment cannot be confirmed. 
 
Despite prophylactic treatment for tuberculosis, cases of reactivated tuberculosis have occurred in 
patients treated with adalimumab. Some patients who have been successfully treated for active 
tuberculosis have redeveloped tuberculosis while being treated with adalimumab. 
 
Patients should be instructed to seek medical advice if signs / symptoms suggestive of a 
tuberculosis infection (e.g., persistent cough, wasting/weight loss, low grade fever, listlessness) 
occur during or after therapy with Hyrimoz. 
 



12 

 

Other opportunistic infections 
 
Opportunistic infections, including invasive fungal infections have been observed in patients 
receiving adalimumab. These infections have not consistently been recognised in patients taking 
TNF-antagonists and this has resulted in delays in appropriate treatment, sometimes resulting in 
fatal outcomes.  
 
For patients who develop the signs and symptoms such as fever, malaise, weight loss, sweats, 
cough, dyspnoea, and / or pulmonary infiltrates or other serious systemic illness with or without 
concomitant shock an invasive fungal infection should be suspected and administration of 
Hyrimoz should be promptly discontinued. Diagnosis and administration of empiric antifungal 
therapy in these patients should be made in consultation with a physician with expertise in the 
care of patients with invasive fungal infections. 
 
Hepatitis B reactivation 
 
Reactivation of hepatitis B has occurred in patients receiving a TNF-antagonist including 
adalimumab, who are chronic carriers of this virus (i.e. surface antigen positive). Some cases have 
had a fatal outcome. Patients should be tested for HBV infection before initiating treatment with 
Hyrimoz. For patients who test positive for hepatitis B infection, consultation with a physician with 
expertise in the treatment of hepatitis B is recommended. 
 
Carriers of HBV who require treatment with Hyrimoz should be closely monitored for signs and 
symptoms of active HBV infection throughout therapy and for several months following 
termination of therapy. Adequate data from treating patients who are carriers of HBV with anti-viral 
therapy in conjunction with TNF-antagonist therapy to prevent HBV reactivation are not available. 
In patients who develop HBV reactivation, Hyrimoz should be stopped and effective anti-viral 
therapy with appropriate supportive treatment should be initiated. 
 
Neurological events 
 
TNF-antagonists including adalimumab have been associated in rare instances with new onset or 
exacerbation of clinical symptoms and / or radiographic evidence of central nervous system 
demyelinating disease including multiple sclerosis and optic neuritis, and peripheral demyelinating 
disease, including Guillain-Barré syndrome. Prescribers should exercise caution in considering 
the use of Hyrimoz in patients with pre-existing or recent-onset central or peripheral nervous 
system demyelinating disorders; discontinuation of Hyrimoz should be considered if any of these 
disorders develop. There is a known association between intermediate uveitis and central 
demyelinating disorders. Neurologic evaluation should be performed in patients with non-
infectious intermediate uveitis prior to the initiation of Hyrimoz therapy and regularly during 
treatment to assess for pre-existing or developing central demyelinating disorders. 
 
Allergic reactions 
 
Serious allergic reactions associated with adalimumab were rare during clinical trials. Non-serious 
allergic reactions associated with adalimumab were uncommon during clinical trials. Reports of 
serious allergic reactions including anaphylaxis have been received following adalimumab 
administration. If an anaphylactic reaction or other serious allergic reaction occurs, administration of 
Hyrimoz should be discontinued immediately and appropriate therapy initiated. 
 
Immunosuppression 
 
In a study of 64 patients with rheumatoid arthritis that were treated with adalimumab, there was 
no evidence of depression of delayed-type hypersensitivity, depression of immunoglobulin 
levels, or change in enumeration of effector T-, B-, NK-cells, monocyte / macrophages, and 
neutrophils. 
 



13 

 

Malignancies and lymphoproliferative disorders 
 
In the controlled portions of clinical trials of TNF-antagonists, more cases of malignancies including 
lymphoma have been observed among patients receiving a TNF-antagonist compared with control 
patients. However, the occurrence was rare. In the post marketing setting, cases of leukaemia have 
been reported in patients treated with a TNF-antagonist. There is an increased background risk for 
lymphoma and leukaemia in rheumatoid arthritis patients with long-standing, highly active, 
inflammatory disease, which complicates the risk estimation. With the current knowledge, a possible 
risk for the development of lymphomas, leukaemia, and other malignancies in patients treated with a 
TNF-antagonist cannot be excluded. 
 
Malignancies, some fatal, have been reported among children, adolescents and young adults (up to 
22 years of age) treated with TNF-antagonists (initiation of therapy ≤ 18 years of age), including 
adalimumab in the post marketing setting. Approximately half the cases were lymphomas. The other 
cases represented a variety of different malignancies and included rare malignancies usually 
associated with immunosuppression. A risk for the development of malignancies in children and 
adolescents treated with TNF-antagonists cannot be excluded. 
 
Rare postmarketing cases of hepatosplenic T-cell lymphoma have been identified in patients treated 
with adalimumab. This rare type of T-cell lymphoma has a very aggressive disease course and is 
usually fatal. Some of these hepatosplenic T-cell lymphomas with adalimumab have occurred in 
young adult patients on concomitant treatment with azathioprine or 6-mercaptopurine used for 
inflammatory bowel disease. The potential risk with the combination of azathioprine or 6-
mercaptopurine and Hyrimoz should be carefully considered. A risk for the development of 
hepatosplenic T-cell lymphoma in patients treated with Hyrimoz cannot be excluded 
(see section 4.8). 
 
No studies have been conducted that include patients with a history of malignancy or in whom 
treatment with adalimumab is continued following development of malignancy. Thus additional 
caution should be exercised in considering Hyrimoz treatment of these patients (see section 4.8). 
 
All patients, and in particular patients with a medical history of extensive immunosuppressant therapy 
or psoriasis patients with a history of PUVA treatment should be examined for the presence of non- 
melanoma skin cancer prior to and during treatment with Hyrimoz. Melanoma and Merkel cell 
carcinoma have also been reported in patients treated with TNF-antagonists including adalimumab 
(see section 4.8). 
 
In an exploratory clinical trial evaluating the use of another TNF-antagonist, infliximab, in patients 
with moderate to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), more malignancies, mostly 
in the lung or head and neck, were reported in infliximab-treated patients compared with control 
patients. All patients had a history of heavy smoking. Therefore, caution should be exercised when 
using any TNF-antagonist in COPD patients, as well as in patients with increased risk for malignancy 
due to heavy smoking. 
 
With current data it is not known if adalimumab treatment influences the risk for developing dysplasia 
or colon cancer. All patients with ulcerative colitis who are at increased risk for dysplasia or colon 
carcinoma (for example, patients with long-standing ulcerative colitis or primary sclerosing 
cholangitis), or who had a prior history of dysplasia or colon carcinoma should be screened for 
dysplasia at regular intervals before therapy and throughout their disease course. This evaluation 
should include colonoscopy and biopsies per local recommendations. 
 
Haematologic reactions 
 
Rare reports of pancytopenia including aplastic anaemia have been reported with TNF-antagonists. 
Adverse events of the haematologic system, including medically significant cytopenia (e.g. 
thrombocytopenia, leukopenia) have been reported with adalimumab. All patients should be advised 
to seek immediate medical attention if they develop signs and symptoms suggestive of blood 



14 

 

dyscrasias (e.g. persistent fever, bruising, bleeding, pallor) while on Hyrimoz. Discontinuation of 
Hyrimoz therapy should be considered in patients with confirmed significant haematologic 
abnormalities. 
 
Vaccinations 
 
Similar antibody responses to the standard 23-valent pneumococcal vaccine and the influenza 
trivalent virus vaccination were observed in a study in 226 adult subjects with rheumatoid arthritis 
who were treated with adalimumab or placebo. No data are available on the secondary 
transmission of infection by live vaccines in patients receiving adalimumab. 
 
It is recommended that paediatric patients, if possible, be brought up to date with all immunisations in 
agreement with current immunisation guidelines prior to initiating Hyrimoz therapy. 
 
Patients on Hyrimoz may receive concurrent vaccinations, except for live vaccines. Administration 
of live vaccines (e.g., BCG vaccine) to infants exposed to adalimumab in utero is not recommended 
for 5 months following the mother’s last adalimumab injection during pregnancy. 
 
Congestive heart failure 
 
In a clinical trial with another TNF-antagonist worsening congestive heart failure and increased 
mortality due to congestive heart failure have been observed. Cases of worsening congestive heart 
failure have also been reported in patients receiving adalimumab. Hyrimoz should be used with 
caution in patients with mild heart failure (NYHA class I/II). Hyrimoz is contraindicated in 
moderate to severe heart failure (see section 4.3). Treatment with Hyrimoz must be discontinued in 
patients who develop new or worsening symptoms of congestive heart failure. 
 
Autoimmune processes 
 
Treatment with Hyrimoz may result in the formation of autoimmune antibodies. The impact of 
long-term treatment with adalimumab on the development of autoimmune diseases is unknown. If 
a patient develops symptoms suggestive of a lupus-like syndrome following treatment with 
Hyrimoz and is positive for antibodies against double-stranded DNA, further treatment with 
Hyrimoz should not be given (see section 4.8). 
 
Concurrent administration of biologic DMARDs or TNF-antagonists 
 
Serious infections were seen in clinical studies with concurrent use of anakinra and another 
TNF-antagonist, etanercept, with no added clinical benefit compared to etanercept alone. Because of 
the nature of the adverse events seen with the combination of etanercept and anakinra therapy, similar 
toxicities may also result from the combination of anakinra and other TNF-antagonists. Therefore, the 
combination of adalimumab and anakinra is not recommended (see section 4.5).  
Concomitant administration of adalimumab with other biologic DMARDs (e.g, anakinra and 
abatacept) or other TNF-antagonists is not recommended based upon the possible increased risk for 
infections, including serious infections and other potential pharmacological interactions (see 
section 4.5). 
 
Surgery 
 
There is limited safety experience of surgical procedures in patients treated with adalimumab. The 
long half-life of adalimumab should be taken into consideration if a surgical procedure is planned. 
A patient who requires surgery while on Hyrimoz should be closely monitored for infections, and 
appropriate actions should be taken. There is limited safety experience in patients undergoing 
arthroplasty while receiving adalimumab. 
 



15 

 

Small bowel obstruction 
 
Failure to respond to treatment for Crohn’s disease may indicate the presence of fixed fibrotic 
stricture that may require surgical treatment. Available data suggest that adalimumab does not 
worsen or cause strictures. 
 
Elderly 
 
The frequency of serious infections among adalimumab-treated subjects over 65 years of age 
(3.7 %) was higher than for those under 65 years of age (1.5 %). Some of those had a fatal 
outcome. Particular attention regarding the risk for infection should be paid when treating the 
elderly. 
 
Paediatric population 
 
See Vaccinations above. 
 
Sodium content 
 
This medicinal product contains less than 1 mmol sodium (23 mg) per 0.8 ml dose, that is to say 
essentially ‘sodium-free’. 
 
4.5 Interaction with other medicinal products and other forms of interaction 
 
Adalimumab has been studied in rheumatoid arthritis, polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis and 
psoriatic arthritis patients taking adalimumab as monotherapy and those taking concomitant 
methotrexate. Antibody formation was lower when adalimumab was given together with 
methotrexate in comparison with use as monotherapy. Administration of adalimumab without 
methotrexate resulted in increased formation of antibodies, increased clearance and reduced efficacy 
of adalimumab (see section 5.1). 
 
The combination of adalimumab and anakinra is not recommended (see section 4.4 “Concurrent 
administration of biologic DMARDs or TNF-antagonists”). 
 
The combination of adalimumab and abatacept is not recommended (see section 4.4 “Concurrent 
administration of biologic DMARDs or TNF-antagonists”). 
 
4.6 Fertility, pregnancy and lactation 
 
Women of child bearing potential 
 
Women of childbearing potential should consider the use of adequate contraception to prevent 
pregnancy and continue its use for at least five months after the last Hyrimoz treatment. 
 
Pregnancy 
 
A large number (approximately 2100) of prospectively collected pregnancies exposed to 
adalimumab resulting in live birth with known outcomes, including more than 1500 exposed during 
the first trimester, does not indicate an increase in the rate of malformation in the newborn. 
 
In a prospective cohort registry, 257 women with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) or Crohn’s disease (CD) 
treated with adalimumab at least during the first trimester and 120 women with RA or CD not treated 
with adalimumab were enrolled. The primary endpoint was the birth prevalence of major birth 
defects. The rate of pregnancies ending with at least one live born infant with a major birth defect 
was 6/69 (8.7 %) in the adalimumab-treated women with RA and 5/74 (6.8 %) in the untreated 
women with RA (unadjusted OR 1.31, 95 % CI 0.38–4.52) and 16/152 (10.5 %) in the adalimumab-
treated women with CD and 3/32 (9.4 %) in the untreated women with CD (unadjusted OR 1.14, 



16 

 

95 % CI 0.31–4.16). The adjusted OR (accounting for baseline differences) was 1.10 (95% CI 0.45–
2.73) with RA and CD combined. There were no distinct differences between adalimumab-treated 
and untreated women for the secondary endpoints spontaneous abortions, minor birth defects, 
preterm delivery, birth size and serious or opportunistic infections and no stillbirths or malignancies 
were reported. The interpretation of data may be impacted due to methodological limitations of the 
study, including small sample size and non-randomized design. 
 
In a developmental toxicity study conducted in monkeys, there was no indication of maternal 
toxicity, embryotoxicity or teratogenicity. Preclinical data on postnatal toxicity of adalimumab are 
not available (see section 5.3). 
 
Due to its inhibition of TNFα, adalimumab administered during pregnancy could affect normal 
immune responses in the newborn. Adalimumab should only be used during pregnancy if clearly 
needed. 
 
Adalimumab may cross the placenta into the serum of infants born to women treated with 
adalimumab during pregnancy. Consequently, these infants may be at increased risk for infection. 
Administration of live vaccines (e.g., BCG vaccine) to infants exposed to adalimumab in utero is not 
recommended for 5 months following the mother’s last adalimumab injection during pregnancy. 
 
Breast-feeding 
 
Limited information from the published literature indicates that adalimumab is excreted in 
breast milk at very low concentrations with the presence of adalimumab in human milk at 
concentrations of 0.1 % to 1 % of the maternal serum level. Given orally, immunoglobulin G 
proteins undergo intestinal proteolysis and have poor bioavailability. No effects on the 
breastfed newborns / infants are anticipated. Consequently, Hyrimoz can be used during 
breastfeeding. 
 
Fertility 
 
Preclinical data on fertility effects of adalimumab are not available. 
 
4.7 Effects on ability to drive and use machines 
 
Hyrimoz may have a minor influence on the ability to drive and use machines. Vertigo and 
visual impairment may occur following administration of Hyrimoz (see section 4.8). 
 
4.8 Undesirable effects 
 
Summary of the safety profile 
 
Adalimumab was studied in 9,506 patients in pivotal controlled and open label trials for up to 
60 months or more. These trials included rheumatoid arthritis patients with short term and long 
standing disease, juvenile idiopathic arthritis (polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis and enthesitis-
related arthritis) as well as axial spondyloarthritis (ankylosing spondylitis and axial spondyloarthritis 
without radiographic evidence of AS), psoriatic arthritis, Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, psoriasis, 
hidradenitis suppurativa and uveitis patients. The pivotal controlled studies involved 6,089 patients 
receiving adalimumab and 3,801 patients receiving placebo or active comparator during the controlled 
period. 
 
The proportion of patients who discontinued treatment due to adverse events during the double-blind, 
controlled portion of pivotal studies was 5.9 % for patients taking adalimumab and 5.4 % for control-
treated patients. 
 



17 

 

The most commonly reported adverse reactions are infections (such as nasopharyngitis, upper 
respiratory tract infection and sinusitis), injection site reactions (erythema, itching, haemorrhage, pain 
or swelling), headache and musculoskeletal pain. 
 
Serious adverse reactions have been reported for adalimumab. TNF-antagonists, such as adalimumab 
affect the immune system and their use may affect the body’s defence against infection and cancer.  
 
Fatal and life-threatening infections (including sepsis, opportunistic infections and TB), HBV 
reactivation and various malignancies (including leukaemia, lymphoma and HSTCL) have also been 
reported with use of adalimumab. 
 
Serious haematological, neurological and autoimmune reactions have also been reported. These 
include rare reports of pancytopenia, aplastic anaemia, central and peripheral demyelinating events 
and reports of lupus, lupus-related conditions and Stevens-Johnson syndrome. 
 
Paediatric population 
 
In general, the adverse events in paediatric patients were similar in frequency and type to those seen 
in adult patients. 
 
Tabulated list of adverse reactions 
 
The following list of adverse reactions is based on experience from clinical trials and on 
postmarketing experience and are displayed by system organ class (SOC) and frequency in table 6 
below: very common (≥ 1/10); common (≥ 1/100 to < 1/10); uncommon (≥ 1/1,000 to < 1/100); 
rare (≥ 1/10,000 to < 1/1,000); and not known (cannot be estimated from the available data). 
Within each frequency grouping, undesirable effects are presented in order of decreasing 
seriousness.  
 
The highest frequency seen among the various indications has been included. An asterisk (*) 
appears in the SOC column if further information is found elsewhere in sections 4.3, 4.4 and 4.8.

Hidradenitis suppurativa 
 
The safety profile for patients with HS treated with adalimumab weekly was consistent with the 
known safety profile of adalimumab. 
 
Uveitis 
 
The safety profile for patients with uveitis treated with adalimumab every other week was 
consistent with the known safety profile of adalimumab. 
 
Description of selected adverse reactions 
 
Injection site reactions 
 
In the pivotal controlled trials in adults and children, 12.9 % of patients treated with adalimumab 
developed injection site reactions (erythema and / or itching, haemorrhage, pain or swelling), 
compared to 7.2 % of patients receiving placebo or active control. Injection site reactions generally 
did not necessitate discontinuation of the medicinal product. 
 
Infections 
 
In the pivotal controlled trials in adults and children, the rate of infection was 1.51 per patient year in 
the adalimumab-treated patients and 1.46 per patient year in the placebo and active control-treated 
patients. The infections consisted primarily of nasopharyngitis, upper respiratory tract infection, and 
sinusitis. Most patients continued on adalimumab after the infection resolved. 
 
The incidence of serious infections was 0.04 per patient year in adalimumab-treated patients and 
0.03 per patient year in placebo and active control-treated patients. 
 
In controlled and open label adult and paediatric studies with adalimumab, serious infections 
(including fatal infections, which occurred rarely) have been reported, which include reports of 
tuberculosis (including miliary and extra-pulmonary locations) and invasive opportunistic infections 



23 

 

(e.g. disseminated or extrapulmonary histoplasmosis, blastomycosis, coccidioidomycosis, 
pneumocystis, candidiasis, aspergillosis and listeriosis). Most of the cases of tuberculosis occurred 
within the first eight months after initiation of therapy and may reflect recrudescence of latent 
disease. 
 
Malignancies and lymphoproliferative disorders 
 
No malignancies were observed in 249 paediatric patients with an exposure of 655.6 patient years 
during adalimumab trials in patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (polyarticular juvenile 
idiopathic arthritis and enthesitis-related arthritis). In addition, no malignancies were observed in 
192 paediatric patients with an exposure of 498.1 patient years during adalimumab trials in 
paediatric patients with Crohn’s disease. No malignancies were observed in 77 paediatric patients 
with an exposure of 80.0 patient years during an adalimumab trial in paediatric patients with chronic 
plaque psoriasis. No malignancies were observed in 60 paediatric patients with an exposure of 58.4 
patient years during an adalimumab trial in paediatric patients with uveitis. 
 
During the controlled portions of pivotal adalimumab trials in adults of at least 12 weeks in 
duration in patients with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, 
axial spondyloarthritis without radiographic evidence of AS, psoriatic arthritis, psoriasis, 
hidradenitis suppurativa, Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis and uveitis, malignancies, other than 
lymphoma and non-melanoma skin cancer, were observed at a rate (95% confidence interval) of 
6.8 (4.4, 10.5) per 1,000 patient years among 5,291 adalimumab-treated patients versus a rate of 
6.3 (3.4, 11.8) per 1,000 patient years among 3,444 control patients (median duration of treatment 
was 4.0 months for adalimumab and 3.8 months for control-treated patients). The rate (95 % 
confidence interval) of non-melanoma skin cancers was 8.8 (6.0, 13.0) per 1,000 patient years 
among adalimumab-treated patients and 3.2 (1.3, 7.6) per 1,000 patient years among control 
patients. Of these skin cancers, squamous cell carcinomas occurred at rates (95 % confidence 
interval) of 2.7 (1.4, 5.4) per 1,000 patient years among adalimumab-treated patients and 0.6 (0.1, 
4.5) per 1,000 patient years among control patients. The rate (95 % confidence interval) of 
lymphomas was 0.7 (0.2, 2.7) per 1,000 patient years among adalimumab-treated patients and 0.6 
(0.1, 4.5) per 1,000 patient years among control patients. 
 
When combining controlled portions of these trials and ongoing and completed open label extension 
studies with a median duration of approximately 3.3 years including 6,427 patients and over 26,439 
patient years of therapy, the observed rate of malignancies, other than lymphoma and non-melanoma 
skin cancers is approximately 8.5 per 1,000 patient years. The observed rate of non-melanoma skin 
cancers is approximately 9.6 per 1,000 patient years, and the observed rate of lymphomas is 
approximately 1.3 per 1,000 patient years. 
 
In post-marketing experience from January 2003 to December 2010, predominantly in patients 
with rheumatoid arthritis, the reported rate of malignancies is approximately 2.7 per 1,000 patient 
treatment years. The reported rates for non-melanoma skin cancers and lymphomas are 
approximately 0.2 and 0.3 per 1,000 patient treatment years, respectively (see section 4.4). 
 
Rare post-marketing cases of hepatosplenic T-cell lymphoma have been reported in patients 
treated with adalimumab (see section 4.4). 
 
Autoantibodies 
 
Patients had serum samples tested for autoantibodies at multiple time points in rheumatoid arthritis 
studies I–V. In these trials, 11.9 % of patients treated with adalimumab and 8.1 % of placebo and 
active control-treated patients that had negative baseline anti-nuclear antibody titres reported positive 
titres at week 24. Two patients out of 3,441 treated with adalimumab in all rheumatoid arthritis and 
psoriatic arthritis studies developed clinical signs suggestive of new-onset lupus-like syndrome. The 
patients improved following discontinuation of therapy. No patients developed lupus nephritis or 
central nervous system symptoms.

Hepato-biliary events 
 
In controlled Phase 3 trials of adalimumab in patients with rheumatoid arthritis and psoriatic arthritis 
with a control period duration ranging from 4 to 104 weeks, ALT elevations ≥ 3 x ULN occurred in 
3.7 % of adalimumab-treated patients and 1.6 % of control-treated patients. 
 
In controlled Phase 3 trials of adalimumab in patients with polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis 
who were 4 to 17 years and enthesitis-related arthritis who were 6 to 17 years, ALT elevations 
≥ 3 x ULN occurred in 6.1 % of adalimumab-treated patients and 1.3 % of control-treated patients. 
Most ALT elevations occurred with concomitant methotrexate use. No ALT elevations ≥ 3 x ULN 
occurred in the Phase 3 trial of adalimumab in patients with polyarticular juvenile idiopathic 
arthritis who were 2 to < 4 years. 
 
In controlled Phase 3 trials of adalimumab in patients with Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis 
with a control period ranging from 4 to 52 weeks. ALT elevations ≥ 3 x ULN occurred in 0.9 % of 
adalimumab-treated patients and 0.9 % of controlled-treated patients. 
 
In the Phase 3 trial of adalimumab in patients with paediatric Crohn’s disease which evaluated 
efficacy and safety of two body weight adjusted maintenance dose regimens following body weight 
adjusted induction therapy up to 52 weeks of treatment, ALT elevations ≥ 3 x ULN occurred in 
2.6 % (5 / 192) of patients of whom 4 were receiving concomitant immunosuppressants at baseline. 
 
In controlled Phase 3 trials of adalimumab in patients with plaque Psoriasis with a control period 
duration ranging from 12 to 24 weeks, ALT elevations ≥ 3 x ULN occurred in 1.8 % of adalimumab-
treated patients and 1.8 % of control-treated patients. 
 
No ALT elevations ≥ 3 x ULN occurred in the Phase 3 trial of adalimumab in paediatric patients 
with plaque psoriasis. 
 
In controlled trials of adalimumab (initial doses of 160 mg at week 0 and 80 mg at week 2, followed by 
40 mg every week starting at week 4), in patients with hidradenitis suppurativa with a control period 
duration ranging from 12 to 16 weeks, ALT elevations ≥ 3 x ULN occurred in 0.3 % of adalimumab-
treated patients and 0.6 % of control-treated patients. 
 
In controlled trials of adalimumab (initial doses of 80 mg at week 0 followed by 40 mg every other 
week starting at week 1) in adult patients with uveitis up to 80 weeks with a median exposure of 
166.5 days and 105.0 days in adalimumab-treated and control-treated patients, respectively, ALT 
elevations ≥ 3 x ULN occurred in 2.4 % of adalimumab-treated patients and 2.4 % of control-treated 
patients. 
 
Across all indications in clinical trials patients with raised ALT were asymptomatic and in most cases 
elevations were transient and resolved on continued treatment. However, there have also been post- 
marketing reports of liver failure as well as less severe liver disorders that may precede liver failure, 
such as hepatitis including autoimmune hepatitis in patients receiving adalimumab. 
 
Concurrent treatment with azathioprine/6-mercaptopurine 
 
In adult Crohn’s disease studies, higher incidences of malignant and serious infection-related adverse 
events were seen with the combination of adalimumab and azathioprine / 6-mercaptopurine compared 
with adalimumab alone.

Reporting of suspected adverse reactions 
 
Reporting suspected adverse reactions after authorisation of the medicinal product is important. It 
allows continued monitoring of the benefit/risk balance of the medicinal product. Healthcare 
professionals are asked to report any suspected adverse reactions via the national reporting system 
listed in Appendix V. 
 
4.9 Overdose 
 
No dose-limiting toxicity was observed during clinical trials. The highest dose level evaluated has 
been multiple intravenous doses of 10 mg / kg, which is approximately 15 times the recommended 
dose. 
 
 
5. PHARMACOLOGICAL PROPERTIES 
 
5.1 Pharmacodynamic properties 
 
Pharmacotherapeutic group: Immunosuppressants, Tumour Necrosis Factor alpha (TNF-α) inhibitors, 
ATC code: L04AB04 
 
Hyrimoz is a biosimilar medicinal product. Detailed information is available on the website of the 
European Medicines Agency http://www.ema.europa.eu. 
 
Mechanism of action 
 
Adalimumab binds specifically to TNF and neutralises the biological function of TNF by blocking its 
interaction with the p55 and p75 cell surface TNF receptors.  
Adalimumab also modulates biological responses that are induced or regulated by TNF, including 
changes in the levels of adhesion molecules responsible for leukocyte migration (ELAM-1, VCAM-1, 
and ICAM-1 with an IC50 of 0.1–0.2 nM). 
 
Pharmacodynamic effects 
 
After treatment with adalimumab, a rapid decrease in levels of acute phase reactants of inflammation 
(C-reactive protein (CRP) and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR)) and serum cytokines (IL-6) was 
observed, compared to baseline in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Serum levels of matrix 
metalloproteinases (MMP-1 and MMP-3) that produce tissue remodelling responsible for cartilage 
destruction were also decreased after adalimumab administration. Patients treated with adalimumab 
usually experienced improvement in haematological signs of chronic inflammation. 
 
A rapid decrease in CRP levels was also observed in patients with polyarticular juvenile idiopathic 
arthritis, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis and hidradenitis suppurativa after treatment with 
adalimumab. In patients with Crohn’s disease, a reduction of the number of cells expressing 
inflammatory markers in the colon including a significant reduction of expression of TNF-α was 
seen. Endoscopic studies in intestinal mucosa have shown evidence of mucosal healing in 
adalimumab-treated patients.  
 
Clinical efficacy and safety 
 
Rheumatoid arthritis 
 
Adalimumab was evaluated in over 3,000 patients in all rheumatoid arthritis clinical trials. The 
efficacy and safety of adalimumab were assessed in five randomised, double-blind and well-
controlled studies. Some patients were treated for up to 120 months duration. 
 
RA study I evaluated 271 patients with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis who were 



26 

 

≥ 18 years old, had failed therapy with at least one disease-modifying, anti-rheumatic drug and had 
insufficient efficacy with methotrexate at doses of 12.5 to 25 mg (10 mg if methotrexate-intolerant) 
every week and whose methotrexate dose remained constant at 10 to 25 mg every week. Doses of 20, 
40 or 80 mg of adalimumab or placebo were given every other week for 24 weeks. 
 
RA study II evaluated 544 patients with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis who were 
≥ 18 years old and had failed therapy with at least one disease-modifying, anti-rheumatic drugs. Doses 
of 20 or 40 mg of adalimumab were given by subcutaneous injection every other week with placebo on 
alternative weeks or every week for 26 weeks; placebo was given every week for the same duration. 
No other disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs were allowed. 
 
RA study III evaluated 619 patients with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis who were 
≥ 18 years old, and who had an ineffective response to methotrexate at doses of 12.5 to 25 mg or have 
been intolerant to 10 mg of methotrexate every week. There were three groups in this study. The first 
received placebo injections every week for 52 weeks. The second received 20 mg of adalimumab every 
week for 52 weeks. The third group received 40 mg of adalimumab every other week with placebo 
injections on alternate weeks. Upon completion of the first 52 weeks, 457 patients enrolled in an open-
label extension phase in which 40 mg of adalimumab / MTX was administered every other week up to 
10 years. 
 
RA study IV primarily assessed safety in 636 patients with moderately to severely active rheumatoid 
arthritis who were ≥ 18 years old. Patients were permitted to be either disease-modifying, anti-
rheumatic drug-naïve or to remain on their pre-existing rheumatologic therapy provided that therapy 
was stable for a minimum of 28 days. These therapies include methotrexate, leflunomide, 
hydroxychloroquine, sulfasalazine and / or gold salts. Patients were randomised to 40 mg of 
adalimumab or placebo every other week for 24 weeks. 
 
RA study V evaluated 799 methotrexate-naïve, adult patients with moderate to severely active early 
rheumatoid arthritis (mean disease duration less than 9 months). This study evaluated the efficacy of 
adalimumab 40 mg every other week / methotrexate combination therapy, adalimumab 40 mg every 
other week monotherapy and methotrexate monotherapy in reducing the signs and symptoms and 
rate of progression of joint damage in rheumatoid arthritis for 104 weeks. Upon completion of the 
first 104 weeks, 497 patients enrolled in an open-label extension phase in which 40 mg of 
adalimumab was administered every other week up to 10 years. 
 
The primary end point in RA studies I, II and III and the secondary endpoint in RA study IV was the 
percentage of patients who achieved an ACR 20 response at week 24 or 26. The primary endpoint in 
RA study V was the percent of patients who achieved an ACR 50 response at week 52. RA studies 
III and V had an additional primary endpoint at 52 weeks of retardation of disease progression (as 
detected by X-ray results). RA study III also had a primary endpoint of changes in quality of life.  
 
ACR response 
 
The percentage of adalimumab-treated patients achieving ACR 20, 50 and 70 responses was consistent 
across RA studies I, II and III. The results for the 40 mg every other week dose are summarised in 
table 7.

In RA studies I–IV, all individual components of the ACR response criteria (number of tender and 
swollen joints, physician and patient assessment of disease activity and pain, disability index 
(HAQ) scores and CRP (mg / dl) values) improved at 24 or 26 weeks compared to placebo. In RA 
study III, these improvements were maintained throughout 52 weeks. 
 
In the open-label extension for RA study III, most patients who were ACR responders maintained 
response when followed for up to 10 years. Of 207 patients who were randomised to adalimumab 
40 mg every other week, 114 patients continued on adalimumab 40 mg every other week for 
5 years. Among those, 86 patients (75.4 %) had ACR 20 responses; 72 patients (63.2 %) had ACR 
50 responses; and 41 patients (36 %) had ACR 70 responses. Of 207 patients, 81 patients continued 
on adalimumab 40 mg every other week for 10 years. Among those, 64 patients (79.0 %) had ACR 
20 responses; 56 patients (69.1 %) had ACR 50 responses; and 43 patients (53.1 %) had ACR 70 
responses. 
 
In RA study IV, the ACR 20 response of patients treated with adalimumab plus standard of care 
was statistically significantly better than patients treated with placebo plus standard of care 
(p < 0.001). 
 
In RA studies I–IV, adalimumab-treated patients achieved statistically significant ACR 20 and 50 
responses compared to placebo as early as one to two weeks after initiation of treatment. 
 
In RA study V with early rheumatoid arthritis patients who were methotrexate naïve, 
combination therapy with adalimumab and methotrexate led to faster and significantly greater 
ACR responses than methotrexate monotherapy and adalimumab monotherapy at week 52 and 
responses were sustained at week 104 (see table 8).

In the open-label extension for RA study V, ACR response rates were maintained when followed 
for up to 10 years. Of 542 patients who were randomised to adalimumab 40 mg every other week, 
170 patients continued on adalimumab 40 mg every other week for 10 years. Among those, 154 
patients (90.6 %) had ACR 20 responses; 127 patients (74.7 %) had ACR 50 responses; and 102 
patients (60.0 %) had ACR 70 responses. 
 
At week 52, 42.9 % of patients who received adalimumab / methotrexate combination therapy 
achieved clinical remission (DAS28 < 2.6) compared to 20.6 % of patients receiving methotrexate 
monotherapy and 23.4% of patients receiving adalimumab monotherapy. 
Adalimumab / methotrexate combination therapy was clinically and statistically superior to 
methotrexate (p < 0.001) and adalimumab monotherapy (p < 0.001) in achieving a low disease 
state in patients with recently diagnosed moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis. The response for 
the two monotherapy arms was similar (p = 0.447).  
Of 342 subjects originally randomized to adalimumab monotherapy or adalimumab / methotrexate 
combination therapy who entered the open-label extension study, 171 subjects completed 10 years 
of adalimumab treatment. Among those, 109 subjects (63.7 %) were reported to be in remission at 
10 years.

Radiographic response 
 
In RA study III, where adalimumab-treated patients had a mean duration of rheumatoid arthritis 
of approximately 11 years, structural joint damage was assessed radiographically and expressed 
as change in modified Total Sharp Score (TSS) and its components, the erosion score and joint 
space narrowing score. Adalimumab / methotrexate patients demonstrated significantly less 
radiographic progression than patients receiving methotrexate alone at 6 and 12 months (see 
table 9). 
 
In the open-label extension of RA Study III, the reduction in rate of progression of structural 
damage is maintained for 8 and 10 years in a subset of patients. At 8 years, 81 of 207 patients 
originally treated with 40 mg adalimumab every other week were evaluated radiographically. 
Among those, 48 patients showed no progression of structural damage defined by a change from 
baseline in the mTSS of 0.5 or less. At 10 years, 79 of 207 patients originally treated with 40 mg 
adalimumab every other week were evaluated radiographically. Among those, 40 patients showed 
no progression of structural damage defined by a change from baseline in the mTSS of 0.5 or less.

Following 52 weeks and 104 weeks of treatment, the percentage of patients without progression 
(change from baseline in modified Total Sharp Score ≤ 0.5) was significantly higher with 
adalimumab / methotrexate combination therapy (63.8 % and 61.2 % respectively) compared to 
methotrexate monotherapy (37.4 % and 33.5 % respectively, p < 0.001) and adalimumab monotherapy 
(50.7 %, p < 0.002 and 44.5 %, p < 0.001 respectively). 
 
In the open-label extension of RA study V, the mean change from baseline at Year 10 in the modified 
Total Sharp Score was 10.8, 9.2 and 3.9 in patients originally randomised to methotrexate 
monotherapy, adalimumab monotherapy and adalimumab / methotrexate combination therapy, 
respectively. The corresponding proportions of patients with no radiographic progression were 
31.3 %, 23.7 % and 36.7 % respectively. 
 
Quality of life and physical function 
 
Health-related quality of life and physical function were assessed using the disability index of the 
Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ) in the four original adequate and well-controlled trials, 
which was a pre-specified primary endpoint at week 52 in RA study III. All doses / schedules of 
adalimumab in all four studies showed statistically significantly greater improvement in the disability 
index of the HAQ from baseline to Month 6 compared to placebo and in RA study III the same was 
seen at week 52. Results from the Short Form Health Survey (SF 36) for all doses / schedules of 
adalimumab in all four studies support these findings, with statistically significant physical component 
summary (PCS) scores, as well as statistically significant pain and vitality domain scores for the 40 mg 
every other week dose. A statistically significant decrease in fatigue as measured by functional 
assessment of chronic illness therapy (FACIT) scores was seen in all three studies in which it was 
assessed (RA studies I, III, IV). 
 
In RA study III, most subjects who achieved improvement in physical function and continued 
treatment maintained improvement through week 520 (120 months) of open-label treatment. 
Improvement in quality of life was measured up to week 156 (36 months) and improvement 
was maintained through that time. 
 
In RA study V, the improvement in the HAQ disability index and the physical component of the SF 36 
showed greater improvement (p < 0.001) for adalimumab / methotrexate combination therapy versus 
methotrexate monotherapy and adalimumab monotherapy at week 52, which was maintained through 
week 104. Among the 250 subjects who completed the open-label extension study, improvements in 
physical function were maintained through 10 years of treatment.

Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) 
 
Polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis (pJIA) 
 
The safety and efficacy of adalimumab was assessed in two studies (pJIA I and II) in children with 
active polyarticular or polyarticular course juvenile idiopathic arthritis, who had a variety of JIA 
onset types (most frequently rheumatoid-factor negative or positive polyarthritis and extended 
oligoarthritis). 
 
pJIA I 
 
The safety and efficacy of adalimumab were assessed in a multicentre, randomised, double-blind, 
parallel-group study in 171 children (4–17 years old) with polyarticular JIA. In the open-label lead in 
phase (OL LI) patients were stratified into two groups, MTX (methotrexate)-treated or non-MTX-
treated. Patients who were in the non-MTX stratum were either naïve to or had been withdrawn from 
MTX at least two weeks prior to study drug administration. Patients remained on stable doses of 
NSAIDs and or prednisone (≤ 0.2 mg / kg / day or 10 mg / day maximum). In the OL LI phase all 
patients received 24 mg / m2 up to a maximum of 40 mg adalimumab every other week for 16 weeks. 
The distribution of patients by age and minimum, median and maximum dose received during the 
OL LI phase is presented in table 11.

Patients demonstrating a paediatric ACR 30 response at week 16 were eligible to be randomised 
into the double blind (DB) phase and received either adalimumab 24 mg / m2 up to a maximum of 
40 mg, or placebo every other week for an additional 32 weeks or until disease flare. Disease flare 
criteria were defined as a worsening of ≥ 30 % from baseline in ≥ 3 of 6 paediatric ACR core 
criteria, ≥ 2 active joints, and improvement of > 30 % in no more than 1 of the 6 criteria. After 
32 weeks or at disease flare, patients were eligible to enrol into the open label extension phase 
(table 12).

Amongst those who responded at week 16 (n = 144), the paediatric ACR 30 / 50 / 70 /90 
responses were maintained for up to six years in the OLE phase in patients who received 
adalimumab throughout the study. Over all 19 subjects, of which 11 of the baseline age group 4 to 
12 and 8 of the baseline age group 13 to 17 years were treated 6 years or longer. 
 
Overall responses were generally better and, fewer patients developed antibodies when treated with 
the combination of adalimumab and MTX compared to adalimumab alone. Taking these results into 
consideration, Hyrimoz is recommended for use in combination with MTX and for use as 
monotherapy in patients for whom MTX use is not appropriate (see section 4.2). 
 
pJIA II 
 
The safety and efficacy of adalimumab was assessed in an open-label, multicentre study in 32 children 
(2–< 4 years old or aged 4 and above weighing < 15 kg) with moderately to severely active polyarticular 
JIA. The patients received 24 mg / m2 body surface area (BSA) of adalimumab up to a maximum of 
20 mg every other week as a single dose via SC injection for at least 24 weeks. During the study, most 
subjects used concomitant MTX, with fewer reporting use of corticosteroids or NSAIDs. 
 
At week 12 and week 24, PedACR30 response was 93.5 % and 90.0 %, respectively, using the 
observed data approach. The proportions of subjects with PedACR50 / 70 / 90 at week 12 and week 24 
were 90.3 % / 61.3 % / 38.7 % and 83.3 % / 73.3 % / 36.7 %, respectively. Amongst those who 
responded (paediatric ACR 30) at week 24 (n = 27 out of 30 patients), the paediatric ACR 30 
responses were maintained for up to 60 weeks in the OLE phase in patients who received adalimumab 
throughout this time period. Overall, 20 subjects were treated for 60 weeks or longer. 
 
Enthesitis-related arthritis 
 
The safety and efficacy of adalimumab were assessed in a multicentre, randomised, double-blind study in 
46 paediatric patients (6 to 17 years old) with moderate enthesitis-related arthritis. Patients were 
randomised to receive either 24 mg / m2 body surface area (BSA) of adalimumab up to a maximum of 
40 mg, or placebo every other week for 12 weeks. The double-blind period is followed by an open-label 
(OL) period during which patients received 24 mg / m2 BSA of adalimumab up to a maximum of 40 mg 
every other week subcutaneously for up to an additional 192 weeks. The primary endpoint was the 
percent change from Baseline to week 12 in the number of active joints with arthritis (swelling not due 



33 

 

to deformity or joints with loss of motion plus pain and/or tenderness), which was achieved with mean 
percent decrease of -62.6 % (median percent change -88.9 %) in patients in the adalimumab group 
compared to -11.6 % (median percent change -50.0 %) in patients in the placebo group. Improvement 
in number of active joints with arthritis was maintained during the OL period through week 156 for 
the 26 of 31 (84 %) patients in the adalimumab group who remained in the study. Although not 
statistically significant, the majority of patients demonstrated clinical improvement in secondary 
endpoints such as number of sites of enthesitis, tender joint count (TJC), swollen joint count (SJC), 
paediatric ACR 50 response, and paediatric ACR 70 response. 
 
Axial spondyloarthritis 
 
Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) 
 
Adalimumab 40 mg every other week was assessed in 393 patients in two randomised, 24 week 
double-blind, placebo-controlled studies in patients with active ankylosing spondylitis (mean baseline 
score of disease activity [Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI)] was 6.3 in 
all groups) who have had an inadequate response to conventional therapy. Seventy-nine (20.1 %) 
patients were treated concomitantly with disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs, and 37 (9.4 %) 
patients with glucocorticoids. The blinded period was followed by an open-label period during which 
patients received adalimumab 40 mg every other week subcutaneously for up to an additional 
28 weeks. Subjects (n = 215, 54.7 %) who failed to achieve ASAS 20 at weeks 12, or 16 or 20 
received early escape open-label adalimumab 40 mg every other week subcutaneously and were 
subsequently treated as non-responders in the double-blind statistical analyses. 
 
In the larger AS study I with 315 patients, results showed statistically significant improvement of 
the signs and symptoms of ankylosing spondylitis in patients treated with adalimumab compared to 
placebo. Significant response was first observed at week 2 and maintained through 24 weeks 
(table 13).

The safety and efficacy of adalimumab were assessed in two randomized, double-blind placebo-
controlled studies in patients with non-radiographic axial spondyloarthritis (nr-axSpA). Study nr-
axSpA I evaluated patients with active nr-axSpA. Study nr-axSpA II was a treatment withdrawal 
study in active nr-axSpA patients who achieved remission during open-label treatment with 
adalimumab. 
 
Study nr-axSpA I 
 
In study nr-axSpA I, adalimumab 40 mg every other week was assessed in 185 patients in a 
randomised, 12 week double-blind, placebo-controlled study in patients with active nr-axSpA (mean 
baseline score of disease activity [Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI)] 
was 6.4 for patients treated with adalimumab and 6.5 for those on placebo) who have had an 
inadequate response to or intolerance to ≥ 1 NSAIDs, or a contraindication for NSAIDs. 
 
Thirty-three (18 %) patients were treated concomitantly with disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs, 
and 146 (79 %) patients with NSAIDs at baseline. The double-blind period was followed by an open-
label period during which patients receive adalimumab 40 mg every other week subcutaneously for up 



35 

 

to an additional 144 weeks. Week 12 results showed statistically significant improvement of the signs 
and symptoms of active nr-axSpA in patients treated with adalimumab compared to placebo 
(table 14).

In the open-label extension, improvement in the signs and symptoms was maintained with 
adalimumab therapy through week 156. 
 
Inhibition of inflammation 
 
Significant improvement of signs of inflammation as measured by hs-CRP and MRI of both 
Sacroiliac Joints and the Spine was maintained in adalimumab-treated patients through week 
156 and week 104, respectively. 
 
Quality of life and physical function 
 
Health-related quality of life and physical function were assessed using the HAQ-S and the SF-36 
questionnaires. Adalimumab showed statistically significantly greater improvement in the HAQ-S 
total score and the SF-36 Physical Component Score (PCS) from baseline to week 12 compared to 
placebo. Improvement in health-related quality of life and physical function was maintained during 
the open- label extension through week 156. 
 
Study nr-axSpA II 
 
673 patients with active nr-axSpA (mean baseline disease activity [BASDAI] was 7.0) who had an 
inadequate response to ≥ 2 NSAIDs, or an intolerance to or a contraindication for NSAIDs enrolled 
into the open-label period of Study nr-axSpA II during which they received adalimumab 40 mg eow 
for 28 weeks. These patients also had objective evidence of inflammation in the sacroiliac joints or 



36 

 

spine on MRI or elevated hs-CRP. Patients who achieved sustained remission for at least 12 weeks 
(N=305) (ASDAS < 1.3 at weeks 16, 20, 24, and 28) during the open-label period were then 
randomized to receive either continued treatment with adalimumab 40 mg eow (N=152) or placebo 
(N=153) for an additional 40 weeks in a double-blind, placebo-controlled period (total study duration 
68 weeks). Subjects who flared during the double-blind period were allowed adalimumab 40 mg eow 
rescue therapy for at least 12 weeks. 
 
The primary efficacy endpoint was the proportion of patients with no flare by Week 68 of the study. 
Flare was defined as ASDAS ≥ 2.1 at two consecutive visits four weeks apart. A greater proportion 
of patients on adalimumab had no disease flare during the double-blind period, when compared with 
those on placebo (70.4% vs. 47.1%, p<0.001) (Figure 1).

Among the 68 patients who flared in the group allocated to treatment withdrawal, 65 completed 
12 weeks of rescue therapy with adalimumab, out of which 37 (56.9%) had regained remission 
(ASDAS < 1.3) after 12 weeks of restarting the open-label treatment.  
 
By week 68, patients receiving continuous adalimumab treatment showed statistically significant 
greater improvement of the signs and symptoms of active nr-axSpA as compared to patients allocated 
to treatment withdrawal during the double-blind period of the study (table 15).

Psoriatic arthritis 
 
Adalimumab, 40 mg every other week, was studied in patients with moderately to severely active 
psoriatic arthritis in two placebo-controlled studies, PsA studies I and II. PsA study I with 24 week 
duration, treated 313 adult patients who had an inadequate response to non-steroidal anti-
inflammatory drug therapy and of these, approximately 50 % were taking methotrexate. PsA study 
II with 12-week duration, treated 100 patients who had an inadequate response to DMARD therapy. 
Upon completion of both studies, 383 patients enrolled in an open-label extension study, in which 
40 mg adalimumab was administered every other week (eow). 
 
There is insufficient evidence of the efficacy of adalimumab in patients with ankylosing 
spondylitis-like psoriatic arthropathy due to the small number of patients studied.

ACR responses in PsA study I were similar with and without concomitant methotrexate therapy. 
ACR responses were maintained in the open-label extension study for up to 136 weeks. 
 
Radiographic changes were assessed in the psoriatic arthritis studies. Radiographs of hands, wrists, 
and feet were obtained at baseline and week 24 during the double-blind period when patients were on 
adalimumab or placebo and at week 48 when all patients were on open-label adalimumab. A modified 
Total Sharp Score (mTSS), which included distal interphalangeal joints (i.e. not identical to the TSS 
used for rheumatoid arthritis), was used. 
 
Adalimumab treatment reduced the rate of progression of peripheral joint damage compared with 
placebo treatment as measured by change from baseline in mTSS (mean ± SD) 0.8 ± 2.5 in the 
placebo group (at week 24) compared with 0.0 ± 1.9; (p < 0.001) in the adalimumab group (at week 
48). 
 
In subjects treated with adalimumab with no radiographic progression from baseline to week 48 
(n=102), 84 % continued to show no radiographic progression through 144 weeks of treatment. 
Adalimumab-treated patients demonstrated statistically significant improvement in physical function 
as assessed by HAQ and Short Form Health Survey (SF 36) compared to placebo at week 24. 
Improved physical function continued during the open label extension up to week 136. 
 
Psoriasis 
 
The safety and efficacy of adalimumab were studied in adult patients with chronic plaque psoriasis 
(≥ 10 % BSA involvement and Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) ≥ 12 or ≥ 10) who were 
candidates for systemic therapy or phototherapy in randomised, double-blind studies. 73 % of patients 
enrolled in Psoriasis Studies I and II had received prior systemic therapy or phototherapy. The safety 
and efficacy of adalimumab were also studied in adult patients with moderate to severe chronic 
plaque psoriasis with concomitant hand and / or foot psoriasis who were candidates for systemic 
therapy in a randomised double-blind study (Psoriasis Study III). 
 
Psoriasis Study I (REVEAL) evaluated 1,212 patients within three treatment periods. In period A, 
patients received placebo or adalimumab at an initial dose of 80 mg followed by 40 mg every other 
week starting one week after the initial dose. After 16 weeks of therapy, patients who achieved at 
least a PASI 75 response (PASI score improvement of at least 75 % relative to baseline), entered 
period B and received open-label 40 mg adalimumab every other week. Patients who maintained 
≥PASI 75 response at week 33 and were originally randomised to active therapy in period A, were 
re-randomised in period C to receive 40 mg adalimumab every other week or placebo for an 
additional 19 weeks. Across all treatment groups, the mean baseline PASI score was 18.9 and the 
baseline Physician’s Global Assessment (PGA) score ranged from “moderate” (53 % of subjects 
included) to “severe” (41 %) to “very severe” (6 %). 
 
Psoriasis Study II (CHAMPION) compared the efficacy and safety of adalimumab versus 
methotrexate and placebo in 271 patients. Patients received placebo, an initial dose of MTX 7.5 mg 
and thereafter dose increases up to week 12, with a maximum dose of 25 mg or an initial dose of 
80 mg adalimumab followed by 40 mg every other week (starting one week after the initial dose) for 
16 weeks. There are no data available comparing adalimumab and MTX beyond 16 weeks of therapy. 
Patients receiving MTX who achieved a ≥PASI 50 response at week 8 and / or 12 did not receive 
further dose increases. Across all treatment groups, the mean baseline PASI score was 19.7 and the 
baseline PGA score ranged from “mild” (< 1 %) to “moderate” (48 %) to “severe” (46 %) to “very 
severe” (6 %). 
 
Patients participating in all Phase 2 and Phase 3 psoriasis studies were eligible to enrol into an open- 
label extension trial, where adalimumab was given for at least an additional 108 weeks. 
 
In Psoriasis Studies I and II, a primary endpoint was the proportion of patients who achieved a 
PASI 75 response from baseline at Week 16 (see tables 17 and 18).

In Psoriasis Study I, 28 % of patients who were PASI 75 responders and were re-randomised to 
placebo at week 33 compared to 5 % continuing on adalimumab, p < 0.001, experienced “loss of 
adequate response” (PASI score after week 33 and on or before week 52 that resulted in a < PASI 50 
response relative to baseline with a minimum of a 6-point increase in PASI score relative to week 
33). Of the patients who lost adequate response after re-randomisation to placebo who then enrolled 
into the open-label extension trial, 38 % (25 / 66) and 55 % (36 / 66) regained PASI 75 response 
after 12 and 24 weeks of re-treatment, respectively. 
 
A total of 233 PASI 75 responders at week 16 and week 33 received continuous adalimumab therapy 
for 52 weeks in Psoriasis Study I, and continued adalimumab in the open-label extension trial. PASI 75 
and PGA of clear or minimal response rates in these patients were 74.7 % and 59.0 %, respectively, 
after an additional 108 weeks of open-label therapy (total of 160 weeks). In an analysis in which all 
patients who dropped out of the study for adverse events or lack of efficacy, or who dose-escalated, 
were considered non-responders, PASI 75 and PGA of clear or minimal response rates in these patients 
were 69.6 % and 55.7 %, respectively, after an additional 108 weeks of open-label therapy (total of 
160 weeks). 
 
A total of 347 stable responders participated in a withdrawal and retreatment evaluation in an open- 
label extension study. During the withdrawal period, symptoms of psoriasis returned over time with 
a median time to relapse (decline to PGA “moderate” or worse) of approximately 5 months. None of 
these patients experienced rebound during the withdrawal period. A total of 76.5 % (218 / 285) of 
patients who entered the retreatment period had a response of PGA “clear” or “minimal” after 16 
weeks of retreatment, irrespective of whether they relapsed during withdrawal (69.1 % [123 / 178] 
and 88.8 % [95 / 107] for patients who relapsed and who did not relapse during the withdrawal 
period, respectively). A similar safety profile was observed during retreatment as before withdrawal. 
Significant improvements at week 16 from baseline compared to placebo (Studies I and II) and MTX 
(Study II) were demonstrated in the DLQI (Dermatology Life Quality Index). In Study I, 
improvements in the physical and mental component summary scores of the SF-36 were also 



40 

 

significant compared to placebo. 
 
In an open-label extension study, for patients who dose escalated from 40 mg every other week to 
40 mg weekly due to a PASI response below 50 %, 26.4 % (92 / 349) and 37.8 % (132 / 349) of 
patients achieved PASI 75 response at week 12 and 24, respectively. 
 
Psoriasis Study III (REACH) compared the efficacy and safety of adalimumab versus placebo in 
72 patients with moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis and hand and/or foot psoriasis. Patients 
received an initial dose of 80 mg adalimumab followed by 40 mg every other week (starting one week 
after the initial dose) or placebo for 16 weeks. At week 16, a statistically significantly greater 
proportion of patients who received adalimumab achieved PGA of 'clear' or 'almost clear' for the 
hands and/or feet compared to patients who received placebo (30.6% versus 4.3 %, respectively 
[P = 0.014]). 
 
Psoriasis Study IV compared efficacy and safety of adalimumab versus placebo in 217 adult patients 
with moderate to severe nail psoriasis. Patients received an initial dose of 80 mg adalimumab 
followed by 40 mg every other week (starting one week after the initial dose) or placebo for 26 weeks 
followed by open-label adalimumab treatment for an additional 26 weeks. Nail psoriasis assessments 
included the Modified Nail Psoriasis Severity Index (mNAPSI), the Physician’s Global Assessment of 
Fingernail Psoriasis (PGA-F) and the Nail Psoriasis Severity Index (NAPSI) (see table 19). 
Adalimumab demonstrated a treatment benefit in nail psoriasis patients with different extents of skin 
involvement (BSA ≥ 10 % (60 % of patients) and BSA < 10 % and ≥ 5 % (40 % of patients)).

Paediatric plaque psoriasis 
 
The efficacy of adalimumab was assessed in a randomised, double-blind, controlled study of 114 
paediatric patients from 4 years of age with severe chronic plaque psoriasis (as defined by a 
PGA ≥ 4 or > 20 % BSA involvement or > 10 % BSA involvement with very thick lesions or PASI 
≥ 20 or ≥ 10 with clinically relevant facial, genital, or hand/ foot involvement) who were 
inadequately controlled with topical therapy and heliotherapy or phototherapy. 
 
Patients received adalimumab 0.8 mg / kg eow (up to 40 mg), 0.4 mg / kg eow (up to 20 mg), or 
methotrexate 0.1–0.4 mg / kg weekly (up to 25 mg). At Week 16, more patients randomised to 
adalimumab 0.8 mg / kg had positive efficacy responses (e.g., PASI 75) than those randomised to 
0.4 mg / kg eow or MTX (table 20).

Patients who achieved PASI 75 and PGA clear or minimal were withdrawn from treatment for up to 
36 weeks and monitored for loss of disease control (i.e. a worsening of PGA by at least 2 grades). 
Patients were then re-treated with adalimumab 0.8 mg / kg eow for an additional 16 weeks and 
response rates observed during retreatment were similar to the previous double-blind period: PASI 75 
response of 78.9 % (15 of 19 subjects) and PGA clear or minimal of 52.6 % (10 of 19 subjects). 
 
In the open label period of the study, PASI 75 and PGA clear or minimal responses were 
maintained for up to an additional 52 weeks with no new safety findings. 
 
Hidradenitis suppurativa 
 
The safety and efficacy of adalimumab were assessed in randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled 
studies and an open-label extension study in adult patients with moderate to severe hidradenitis 
suppurativa (HS) who were intolerant, had a contraindication or an inadequate response to at least a 
3-month trial of systemic antibiotic therapy. The patients in HS-I and HS-II had Hurley Stage II or III 
disease with at least 3 abscesses or inflammatory nodules. 
 
Study HS-I (PIONEER I) evaluated 307 patients with 2 treatment periods. In period A, patients 
received placebo or adalimumab at an initial dose of 160 mg at week 0, 80 mg at week 2, and 40 mg 
every week starting at week 4 to week 11. Concomitant antibiotic use was not allowed during the 
study. After 12 weeks of therapy, patients who had received adalimumab in period A were re-
randomised in period B to 1 of 3 treatment groups (adalimumab 40 mg every week, adalimumab 
40 mg every other week, or placebo from week 12 to week 35). Patients who had been randomised to 
placebo in period A were assigned to receive adalimumab 40 mg every week in period B. 
 
Study HS-II (PIONEER II) evaluated 326 patients with 2 treatment periods. In period A, patients 
received placebo or adalimumab at an initial dose of 160 mg at week 0 and 80 mg at week 2 and 
40 mg every week starting at week 4 to week 11. 19.3 % of patients had continued baseline oral 
antibiotic therapy during the study. After 12 weeks of therapy, patients who had received 
adalimumab in period A were re-randomised in period B to 1 of 3 treatment groups (adalimumab 
40 mg every week, adalimumab 40 mg every other week, or placebo from week 12 to week 35). 
Patients who had been randomised to placebo in period A were assigned to receive placebo in 
period B. 
 
Patients participating in Studies HS-I and HS-II were eligible to enrol into an open-label extension 
study in which adalimumab 40 mg was administered every week. Mean exposure in all adalimumab 
population was 762 days. Throughout all 3 studies patients used topical antiseptic wash daily. 
 
Clinical Response 
 
Reduction of inflammatory lesions and prevention of worsening of abscesses and draining fistulas 
was assessed using Hidradenitis Suppurativa Clinical Response (HiSCR; at least a 50 % reduction in 
total abscess and inflammatory nodule count with no increase in abscess count and no increase in 
draining fistula count relative to Baseline). Reduction in HS-related skin pain was assessed using a 
Numeric Rating Scale in patients who entered the study with an initial baseline score of 3 or greater 
on a 11 point scale. 



42 

 

 
At week 12, a significantly higher proportion of patients treated with adalimumab versus placebo 
achieved HiSCR. At week 12, a significantly higher proportion of patients in Study HS-II 
experienced a clinically relevant decrease in HS-related skin pain (see table 21). Patients treated with 
adalimumab had significantly reduced risk of disease flare during the initial 12 weeks of treatment.

Treatment with adalimumab 40 mg every week significantly reduced the risk of worsening of 
abscesses and draining fistulas. Approximately twice the proportion of patients in the placebo group 
in the first 12 weeks of Studies HS-I and HS-II, compared with those in the adalimumab group 
experienced worsening of abscesses (23.0 % vs 11.4 %, respectively) and draining fistulas (30.0 % 
vs 13.9 %, respectively). 
 
Greater improvements at week 12 from baseline compared to placebo were demonstrated in 
skin-specific health-related quality of life, as measured by the Dermatology Life Quality Index 
(DLQI; Studies HS-I and HS-II), patient global satisfaction with medication treatment as 
measured by the Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire – medication (TSQM; Studies HS-I and 
HS-II), and physical health as measured by the physical component summary score of the SF-36 
(Study HS-I). 
 
In patients with at least a partial response to adalimumab 40 mg weekly at week 12, the HiSCR 
rate at week 36 was higher in patients who continued weekly adalimumab than in patients in 
whom dosing frequency was reduced to every other week, or in whom treatment was withdrawn 
(see table 22).

  12 weeks of treatment. 
b patients meeting protocol-specified criteria for loss of response or no 

improvement were required to discontinue from the studies and were counted as 
non-responders. 

 
 
Among patients who were at least partial responders at week 12, and who received continuous weekly 
adalimumab therapy, the HiSCR rate at week 48 was 64.3 % and at week 96 was 65.1 %. Longer term 
treatment with adalimumab 40 mg weekly for 96 weeks identified no new safety findings.  
 
Among patients whose adalimumab treatment was withdrawn at week 12 in Studies HS-I and 
HS-II, the HiSCR rate 12 weeks after re-introduction of adalimumab 40 mg weekly returned 
to levels similar to that observed before withdrawal (56.0 %). 
 
Adolescent hidradenitis suppurativa 
 
There are no clinical trials with adalimumab in adolescent patients with HS. Efficacy of adalimumab 
for the treatment of adolescent patients with HS is predicted based on the demonstrated efficacy and 
exposure-response relationship in adult HS patients and the likelihood that the disease course, 
pathophysiology, and drug effects are substantially similar to that of adults at the same exposure 
levels. Safety of the recommended adalimumab dose in the adolescent HS population is based on 
cross-indication safety profile of adalimumab in both adults and paediatric patients at similar or more 
frequent doses (see section 5.2). 
 
Crohn’s disease 
 
The safety and efficacy of adalimumab were assessed in over 1500 patients with moderately to 
severely active Crohn’s disease (Crohn’s Disease Activity Index (CDAI) ≥ 220 and ≤ 450) in 
randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled studies. Concomitant stable doses of 
aminosalicylates, corticosteroids, and / or immunomodulatory agents were permitted and 80 % of 
patients continued to receive at least one of these medications. 
 
Induction of clinical remission (defined as CDAI < 150) was evaluated in two studies, CD Study I 
(CLASSIC I) and CD Study II (GAIN). In CD Study I, 299 TNF-antagonist naïve patients were 
randomised to one of four treatment groups; placebo at weeks 0 and 2, 160 mg adalimumab at week 
0 and 80 mg at week 2, 80 mg at week 0 and 40 mg at week 2, and 40 mg at week 0 and 20 mg at 
week 2. In CD Study II, 325 patients who had lost response or were intolerant to infliximab were 
randomised to receive either 160 mg adalimumab at week 0 and 80 mg at week 2 or placebo at 
Weeks 0 and 2. The primary non-responders were excluded from the studies and therefore these 
patients were not further evaluated. 
 
Maintenance of clinical remission was evaluated in CD study III (CHARM). In CD study III, 854 
patients received open-label 80 mg at week 0 and 40 mg at week 2. At week 4 patients were 
randomised to 40 mg every other week, 40 mg every week, or placebo with a total study duration 



44 

 

of 56 weeks. Patients in clinical response (decrease in CDAI ≥ 70) at week 4 were stratified and 
analysed separately from those not in clinical response at week 4. Corticosteroid taper was 
permitted after week 8. 
 
CD study I and CD study II induction of remission and response rates are presented in table 23.

Similar remission rates were observed for the 160 / 80 mg and 80 / 40 mg induction regimens by 
week 8 and adverse events were more frequently noted in the 160 / 80 mg group. 
 
In CD study III, at week 4, 58 % (499 / 854) of patients were in clinical response and were assessed 
in the primary analysis. Of those in clinical response at week 4, 48 % had been previously exposed 
to other TNF-antagonists. Maintenance of remission and response rates are presented in table 24. 
Clinical remission results remained relatively constant irrespective of previous TNF-antagonist 
exposure. Disease-related hospitalisations and surgeries were statistically significantly reduced with 
adalimumab compared with placebo at week 56.

Among patients who were not in response at week 4, 43 % of adalimumab maintenance patients 
responded by week 12 compared to 30 % of placebo maintenance patients. These results suggest that 
some patients who have not responded by Week 4 benefit from continued maintenance therapy 
through Week 12. Therapy continued beyond 12 weeks did not result in significantly more 
responses (see section 4.2). 
 
117 / 276 patients from CD study I and 272 / 777 patients from CD studies II and III were 
followed through at least 3 years of open-label adalimumab therapy. 88 and 189 patients, 
respectively, continued to be in clinical remission. Clinical response (CR-100) was maintained 
in 102 and 233 patients, respectively. 
 
Quality of life 
 
In CD study I and CD study II, statistically significant improvement in the disease-specific 
inflammatory bowel disease questionnaire (IBDQ) total score was achieved at week 4 in patients 
randomised to adalimumab 80 / 40 mg and 160 / 80 mg compared to placebo and was seen at 
weeks 26 and 56 in CD study III as well among the adalimumab treatment groups compared to the 
placebo group. 
 
Paediatric Crohn’s disease 
 
Adalimumab was assessed in a multicentre, randomised, double-blind clinical trial designed to 
evaluate the efficacy and safety of induction and maintenance treatment with doses dependent on 
body weight (< 40 kg or ≥ 40 kg) in 192 paediatric subjects between the ages of 6 and 
17 (inclusive) years, with moderate to severe Crohn’s disease (CD) defined as Paediatric Crohn’s 
Disease Activity Index (PCDAI) score > 30. Subjects had to have failed conventional therapy 
(including a corticosteroid and/or an immunomodulator) for CD. Subjects may also have previously 
lost response or been intolerant to infliximab. 
 
All subjects received open-label induction therapy at a dose based on their Baseline body weight: 
160 mg at week 0 and 80 mg at week 2 for subjects ≥ 40 kg, and 80 mg and 40 mg, respectively, for 
subjects < 40 kg. 
 



46 

 

At week 4, subjects were randomised 1:1 based on their body weight at the time to either the Low 
Dose or Standard Dose maintenance regimens as shown in table 25.

Statistically significant increases (improvement) from Baseline to week 26 and 52 in Body Mass 
Index and height velocity were observed for both treatment groups. 
 
Statistically and clinically significant improvements from Baseline were also observed in both 
treatment groups for quality of life parameters (including IMPACT III). 
 
One hundred patients (n = 100) from the Paediatric CD Study continued in an open-label long-term 
extension study. After 5 years of adalimumab therapy, 74.0 % (37 / 50) of the 50 patients remaining 
in the study continued to be in clinical remission, and 92.0 % (46 / 50) of patients continued to be in 
clinical response per PCDAI. 
 
Ulcerative colitis 
 
The safety and efficacy of multiple doses of adalimumab were assessed in adult patients with 
moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (Mayo score 6 to 12 with endoscopy subscore of 2 to 
3) in randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled studies. 
 
In study UC-I, 390 TNF-antagonist naïve patients were randomised to receive either placebo at 
weeks 0 and 2, 160 mg adalimumab at week 0 followed by 80 mg at week 2, or 80 mg adalimumab at 
week 0 followed by 40 mg at week 2. After week 2, patients in both adalimumab arms received 40 mg 
eow. Clinical remission (defined as Mayo score ≤ 2 with no subscore > 1) was assessed at week 8. 
 
In study UC-II, 248 patients received 160 mg of adalimumab at week 0, 80 mg at week 2 and 40 mg 
eow thereafter, and 246 patients received placebo. Clinical results were assessed for induction of 
remission at week 8 and for maintenance of remission at week 52. 
 
Patients induced with 160 / 80 mg adalimumab achieved clinical remission versus placebo at week 
8 in statistically significantly greater percentages in study UC-I (18 % vs. 9 % respectively, 
p = 0.031) and study UC-II (17 % vs. 9 % respectively, p = 0.019). In study UC-II, among those 
treated with adalimumab who were in remission at week 8, 21 / 41 (51 %) were in remission at 
week 52.

  Of those patients who had a response at week 8, 47 % were in response, 29 % were in 
remission, 41 % had mucosal healing, and 20 % were in steroid-free remission for ≥ 90 
days at week 52. 
 
Approximately 40 % of patients in study UC-II had failed prior anti-TNF treatment with infliximab. 
The efficacy of adalimumab in those patients was reduced compared to that in anti-TNF naïve 
patients. Among patients who had failed prior anti-TNF treatment, week 52 remission was achieved 
by 3 % on placebo and 10 % on adalimumab. 
 
Patients from studies UC-I and UC-II had the option to roll over into an open-label long-term 
extension study (UC III). Following 3 years of adalimumab therapy, 75 % (301 / 402) continued to be 
in clinical remission per partial Mayo score. 
 
Hospitalisation rates 
 
During 52 weeks of studies UC-I and UC-II, lower rates of all-cause hospitalisations and UC-related 
hospitalisations were observed for the adalimumab-treated arm compared to the placebo arm. The 
number of all cause hospitalisations in the adalimumab treatment group was 0.18 per patient year vs. 
0.26 per patient year in the placebo group and the corresponding figures for UC-related 
hospitalisations were 0.12 per patient year vs. 0.22 per patient year. 
 
Quality of life 
 
In study UC-II, treatment with adalimumab resulted in improvements in the Inflammatory Bowel 
Disease Questionnaire (IBDQ) score. 
 
Uveitis 
 
The safety and efficacy of adalimumab were assessed in adult patients with non-infectious 
intermediate, posterior, and panuveitis, excluding patients with isolated anterior uveitis, in two 
randomised, double-masked, placebo-controlled studies (UV I and II). Patients received placebo or 
adalimumab at an initial dose of 80 mg followed by 40 mg every other week starting one week after 



49 

 

the initial dose. Concomitant stable doses of one non-biologic immunosuppressant were permitted. 
 
Study UV I evaluated 217 patients with active uveitis despite treatment with corticosteroids (oral 
prednisone at a dose of 10 to 60 mg / day). All patients received a 2-week standardised dose of 
prednisone 60 mg / day at study entry followed by a mandatory taper schedule, with complete 
corticosteroid discontinuation by week 15. 
 
Study UV II evaluated 226 patients with inactive uveitis requiring chronic corticosteroid treatment 
(oral prednisone 10 to 35 mg / day) at baseline to control their disease. Patients subsequently 
underwent a mandatory taper schedule, with complete corticosteroid discontinuation by week 19. 
 
The primary efficacy endpoint in both studies was ‘time to treatment failure’. Treatment failure was 
defined by a multi-component outcome based on inflammatory chorioretinal and/or inflammatory 
retinal vascular lesions, anterior chamber (AC) cell grade, vitreous haze (VH) grade and best 
corrected visual acuity (BCVA). 
 
Patients who completed studies UV I and UV II were eligible to enroll in an uncontrolled long-term 
extension study with an originally planned duration of 78 weeks. Patients were allowed to continue 
on study medication beyond week 78 until they had access to adalimumab.  
 
Clinical Response 
 
Results from both studies demonstrated statistically significant reduction of the risk of treatment 
failure in patients treated with adalimumab versus patients receiving placebo (see table 29). Both 
studies demonstrated an early and sustained effect of adalimumab on the treatment failure rate versus 
placebo (see Figure 2).

Note: P# = Placebo (Number of Events/Number at Risk); A# = Adalimumab (Number of 
Events/Number at Risk). 
 
In Study UV I statistically significant differences in favour of adalimumab versus placebo were 
observed for each component of treatment failure. In Study UV II, statistically significant differences 
were observed for visual acuity only, but the other components were numerically in favour of 
adalimumab. 
 
Of the 424 subjects included in the uncontrolled long-term extension of studies UV I and UV II, 
60 subjects were regarded ineligible (e.g. due to deviations or due to  complications secondary to 
diabetic retinopathy, due to cataract surgery or vitrectomy) and were excluded from the primary 
analysis of efficacy. Of the 364 remaining patients, 269 evaluable patients (74 %) reached 78 weeks of 
open-label adalimumab treatment. Based on the observed data approach, 216 (80.3 %) were in 
quiescence (no active inflammatory lesions, AC cell grade ≤ 0.5+, VH grade ≤ 0.5+) with a 
concomitant steroid dose ≤ 7.5 mg per day, and 178 (66.2 %) were in steroid-free quiescence. BCVA 
was either improved or maintained (< 5 letters deterioration) in 88.6 % of the eyes at week 78. Data 
beyond Week 78 were generally consistent with these results but the number of enrolled subjects 
declined after this time. Overall, among the patients who discontinued the study, 18 % discontinued due 



51 

 

to adverse events, and 8 % due to insufficient response to adalimumab treatment. 
 
Quality of Life 
 
Patient reported outcomes regarding vision-related functioning were measured in both clinical 
studies, using the NEI VFQ-25. Adalimumab was numerically favoured for the majority of subscores 
with statistically significant mean differences for general vision, ocular pain, near vision, mental 
health, and total score in study UV I, and for general vision and mental health in study UV II. Vision 
related effects were not numerically in favour of adalimumab for colour vision in study UV I and for 
colour vision, peripheral vision and near vision in study UV II.  
 
Paediatric Uveitis 
 
The safety and efficacy of adalimumab was assessed in a randomized, double-masked, controlled 
study of 90 paediatric patients from 2 to < 18 years of age with active JIA-associated non-infectious 
anterior uveitis who were refractory to at least 12 weeks of methotrexate treatment. Patients received 
either placebo or 20 mg adalimumab (if < 30 kg) or 40 mg adalimumab (if ≥ 30 kg) every other week 
in combination with their baseline dose of methotrexate. 
 
The primary endpoint was ‘time to treatment failure’. The criteria determining treatment failure were 
worsening or sustained non-improvement in ocular inflammation, partial improvement with 
development of sustained ocular co-morbidities or worsening of ocular co-morbidities, non-permitted 
use of concomitant medications, and suspension of treatment for an extended period of time. 
 
Clinical Response 
 
Adalimumab significantly delayed the time to treatment failure, as compared to placebo (See 
Figure 3, P < 0.0001 from log rank test).The median time to treatment failure was 24.1 weeks for 
subjects treated with placebo, whereas the median time to treatment failure was not estimable for 
subjects treated with adalimumab because less than one-half of these subjects experienced treatment 
failure. Adalimumab significantly decreased the risk of treatment failure by 75% relative to placebo, 
as shown by the hazard ratio (HR = 0.25 [95% CI: 0.12, 0.49]).

uveitis study 

 
 
Immunogenicity 
 
Anti-adalimumab antibodies may develop during adalimumab treatment. 
Formation of anti-adalimumab antibodies is associated with increased clearance and reduced 
efficacy of adalimumab. There is no apparent correlation between the presence of anti-adalimumab 
antibodies and the occurrence of adverse events. 
 
Paediatric population 
 
The European Medicines Agency has deferred the obligation to submit the results of the studies with 
the reference medicinal product containing adalimumab in one or more subsets of the paediatric 
population in ulcerative colitis (see section 4.2 for information on paediatric use). 
 
5.2 Pharmacokinetic properties 
 
Absorption and distribution 
 
After subcutaneous administration of a single 40 mg dose, absorption and distribution of adalimumab 
was slow, with peak serum concentrations being reached about 5 days after administration. The 
average absolute bioavailability of adalimumab estimated from three studies following a single 40 mg 
subcutaneous dose was 64 %. After single intravenous doses ranging from 0.25 to 10 mg / kg, 
concentrations were dose proportional. After doses of 0.5 mg / kg (~40 mg), clearances ranged from 
11 to 15 ml / hour, the distribution volume (Vss) ranged from 5 to 6 litres and the mean terminal 
phase half-life was approximately two weeks. Adalimumab concentrations in the synovial fluid from 
several rheumatoid arthritis patients ranged from 31–96 % of those in serum. 
 
Following subcutaneous administration of 40 mg of adalimumab every other week in adult 
rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients the mean steady-state trough concentrations were 
approximately 5 µg / ml (without concomitant methotrexate) and 8 to 9 µg / ml (with concomitant 
methotrexate), respectively. The serum adalimumab trough levels at steady-state increased roughly 



53 

 

proportionally with dose following 20, 40 and 80 mg subcutaneous dosing every other week and 
every week. 
 
Following the administration of 24 mg / m2 (up to a maximum of 40 mg) subcutaneously every other 
week to patients with polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) who were 4 to 17 years the mean 
trough steady-state (values measured from week 20 to 48) serum adalimumab concentration was 
5.6 ± 5.6 µg / ml (102 % CV) for adalimumab without concomitant methotrexate and 
10.9 ± 5.2 µg / ml (47.7 % CV) with concomitant methotrexate. 
 
In patients with polyarticular JIA who were 2 to < 4 years old or aged 4 and above 
weighing < 15 kg dosed with adalimumab 24 mg / m2, the mean trough steady-state serum 
adalimumab concentrations was 6.0 ± 6.1 µg / ml (101 % CV) for adalimumab without 
concomitant methotrexate and 7.9 ± 5.6 µg / ml (71.2 % CV) with concomitant methotrexate. 
 
Following the administration of 24 mg / m2 (up to a maximum of 40 mg) subcutaneously every other 
week to patients with enthesitis-related arthritis who were 6 to 17 years, the mean trough steady-state 
(values measured at week 24) serum adalimumab concentrations were 8.8 ± 6.6 μg / ml for 
adalimumab without concomitant methotrexate and 11.8 ± 4.3 μg / ml with concomitant 
methotrexate. 
 
In adult patients with psoriasis, the mean steady-state trough concentration was 5 µg / ml 
during adalimumab 40 mg every other week monotherapy treatment. 
 
Following the administration of 0.8 mg / kg (up to a maximum of 40 mg) subcutaneously every 
other week to paediatric patients with chronic plaque psoriasis, the mean ± SD steady-state 
adalimumab trough concentration was approximately 7.4 ± 5.8 µg / ml (79 % CV). 
 
Following subcutaneous administration of 40 mg of adalimumab every other week in adult non-
radiographic axial spondyloarthritis patients, the mean (±SD) trough steady-state concentration at 
week 68 was 8.0 ± 4.6 µg/ml. 
 
In adult patients with hidradenitis suppurativa, a dose of 160 mg adalimumab on week 0 followed by 
80 mg on week 2 achieved serum adalimumab trough concentrations of approximately 7 to 8 μg / ml 
at week 2 and week 4. The mean steady-state trough concentration at week 12 through week 36 were 
approximately 8 to 10 μg / ml during adalimumab 40 mg every week treatment. 
 
Adalimumab exposure in adolescent HS patients was predicted using population pharmacokinetic 
modelling and simulation based on cross-indication pharmacokinetics in other paediatric patients 
(paediatric psoriasis, juvenile idiopathic arthritis, paediatric Crohn’s disease, and enthesitis-related 
arthritis). The recommended adolescent HS dosing schedule is 40 mg every other week. Since 
exposure to adalimumab can be affected by body size, adolescents with higher body weight and 
inadequate response may benefit from receiving the recommended adult dose of 40 mg every week.  
 
In patients with Crohn’s disease, the loading dose of 80 mg adalimumab on week 0 followed by 
40 mg adalimumab on week 2 achieves serum adalimumab trough concentrations of approximately 
5.5 µg / ml during the induction period. A loading dose of 160 mg adalimumab on week 0 followed 
by 80 mg adalimumab on week 2 achieves serum adalimumab trough concentrations of approximately 
12 µg / ml during the induction period. Mean steady-state trough levels of approximately 7 µg / ml 
were observed in Crohn’s disease patients who received a maintenance dose of 40 mg adalimumab 
every other week. 
 
In paediatric patients with moderate to severe CD, the open-label adalimumab induction dose was 
160 / 80 mg or 80 / 40 mg at weeks 0 and 2, respectively, dependent on a body weight cut-off of 
40 kg. At week 4, patients were randomised 1:1 to either the Standard Dose (40 / 20 mg eow) or 
Low Dose (20 / 10 mg eow) maintenance treatment groups based on their body weight. The mean 
(± SD) serum adalimumab trough concentrations achieved at week 4 were 15.7±6.6 µg/ml for 
patients ≥ 40 kg (160 / 80 mg) and 10.6 ± 6.1 µg / ml for patients < 40 kg (80 / 40 mg). 



54 

 

 
For patients who stayed on their randomised therapy, the mean (± SD) adalimumab trough 
concentrations at week 52 were 9.5 ± 5.6 µg / ml for the Standard Dose group and 3.5 ± 2.2 µg / ml 
for the Low Dose group. The mean trough concentrations were maintained in patients who continued 
to receive adalimumab treatment eow for 52 weeks. For patients who dose-escalated from eow to 
weekly regimen, the mean (± SD) serum concentrations of adalimumab at week 52 were 
15.3 ± 11.4 μg / ml (40 / 20 mg, weekly) and 6.7 ± 3.5 μg / ml (20 / 10 mg, weekly). 
 
In patients with ulcerative colitis, a loading dose of 160 mg adalimumab on week 0 followed by 80 mg 
adalimumab on week 2 achieves serum adalimumab trough concentrations of approximately 12 µg / ml 
during the induction period. Mean steady-state trough levels of approximately 8 µg / ml were 
observed in ulcerative colitis patients who received a maintenance dose of 40 mg adalimumab every 
other week. 
 
In adult patients with uveitis, a loading dose of 80 mg adalimumab on week 0 followed by 40 mg 
adalimumab every other week starting at week 1, resulted in mean steady-state concentrations of 
approximately 8 to 10 µg/ml. 
 
Adalimumab exposure in paediatric uveitis patients was predicted using population pharmacokinetic 
modelling and simulation based on cross-indication pharmacokinetics in other paediatric patients 
(paediatric psoriasis, juvenile idiopathic arthritis, paediatric Crohn’s disease, and enthesitis-related 
arthritis). No clinical exposure data are available on the use of a loading dose in children < 6 years. 
The predicted exposures indicate that in the absence of methotrexate, a loading dose may lead to an 
initial increase in systemic exposure. 
 
Population pharmacokinetic and pharmacokinetic / pharmacodynamic modelling and simulation 
predicted comparable adalimumab exposure and efficacy in patients treated with 80 mg every other 
week when compared with 40 mg every week (including adult patients with RA, HS, UC, CD or Ps, 
patients with adolescent HS, and paediatric patients ≥ 40 kg with CD). 
 
Exposure-response relationship in paediatric population 
 
On the basis of clinical trial data in patients with JIA (pJIA and ERA), an exposure-response 
relationship was established between plasma concentrations and PedACR 50 response. The apparent 
adalimumab plasma concentration that produces half the maximum probability of PedACR 50 
response (EC50) was 3 μg/ml (95% CI: 1-6 μg/ml). 
 
Exposure-response relationships between adalimumab concentration and efficacy in paediatric patients 
with severe chronic plaque psoriasis were established for PASI 75 and PGA clear or minimal, 
respectively. PASI 75 and PGA clear or minimal increased with increasing adalimumab 
concentrations, both with a similar apparent EC50 of approximately 4.5 μg/mL (95% CI 0.4-47.6 and 
1.9-10.5, respectively). 
 
Elimination 
 
Population pharmacokinetic analyses with data from over 1,300 RA patients revealed a trend toward 
higher apparent clearance of adalimumab with increasing body weight. After adjustment for weight 
differences, gender and age appeared to have a minimal effect on adalimumab clearance. The serum 
levels of free adalimumab (not bound to anti-adalimumab antibodies, AAA) were observed to be 
lower in patients with measurable AAA. 
 
Hepatic or renal impairment 
 
Adalimumab has not been studied in patients with hepatic or renal impairment.

5.3 Preclinical safety data 
 
Non-clinical data reveal no special hazard for humans based on studies of single dose toxicity, 
repeated dose toxicity, and genotoxicity. 
 
An embryo-foetal developmental toxicity / perinatal developmental study has been performed in 
cynomolgus monkeys at 0, 30 and 100 mg / kg (9–17 monkeys / group) and has revealed no 
evidence of harm to the foetuses due to adalimumab. Neither carcinogenicity studies, nor a standard 
assessment of fertility and postnatal toxicity, were performed with adalimumab due to the lack of 
appropriate models for an antibody with limited cross-reactivity to rodent TNF and to the 
development of neutralising antibodies in rodents.

6. Contents of the pack and other information 
7. Instructions for use  
 
1. What Hyrimoz is and what it is used for 
 
Hyrimoz contains the active substance adalimumab, a medicine that acts on your body’s immune 
(defence) system.  
 
Hyrimoz is intended for the treatment of the following inflammatory diseases: 
• polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis, 
• enthesitis-related arthritis 
• paediatric plaque psoriasis, 
• paediatric Crohn’s disease, 
• paediatric non-infectious uveitis.  
 
The active ingredient in Hyrimoz, adalimumab, is a monoclonal antibody. Monoclonal antibodies are 
proteins that attach to a specific target in the body.  
 
The target of adalimumab is another protein called tumour necrosis factor (TNFα), which is present at 
increased levels in the inflammatory diseases listed above. By attaching to TNFα, Hyrimoz blocks its 
action and reduces the inflammation in these diseases. 
 
Polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis and enthesitis-related arthritis 
 
Polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis and enthesitis-related arthritis are inflammatory diseases of 
the joints that usually first appear in childhood.  
 
Hyrimoz is used to treat polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis in children and adolescents aged 2 



84 

 

to 17 years and enthesitis-related arthritis in children and adolescents aged 6 to 17 years. Patients 
may first be given other disease-modifying medicines, such as methotrexate. If these medicines do not 
work well enough, patients will be given Hyrimoz to treat their polyarticular juvenile idiopathic 
arthritis or enthesitis-related arthritis. 
 
Paediatric plaque psoriasis  
 
Plaque psoriasis is an inflammatory skin condition that causes red, flaky, crusty patches of skin 
covered with silvery scales. Plaque psoriasis can also affect the nails, causing them to crumble, 
become thickened and lift away from the nail bed which can be painful. Psoriasis is believed to be 
caused by a problem with the body’s immune system that leads to an increased production of skin 
cells. 
 
Hyrimoz is also used to treat severe plaque psoriasis in children and adolescents aged 4 to 17 years for 
whom medicines applied to the skin and treatment with UV light have either not worked very well or 
are not suitable. 
 
Paediatric Crohn’s disease  
 
Crohn’s disease is an inflammatory disease of the gut. 
 
Hyrimoz is used to treat moderate to severe Crohn’s disease in children and adolescents aged 6 to 17 
years.  
 
Your child may first be given other medicines. If these medicines do not work well enough, your child  
will be given Hyrimoz to reduce the signs and symptoms of his / her disease. 
 
Paediatric non-infectious uveitis  
 
Non-infectious uveitis is an inflammatory disease affecting certain parts of the eye. The inflammation 
leads to a decrease of vision and / or the presence of floaters in the eye (black dots or wispy lines that 
move across the field of vision). Hyrimoz works by reducing this inflammation. 
 
Hyrimoz is used to treat children from 2 years of age with chronic non-infectious uveitis with 
inflammation affecting the front of the eye. 
 
Your child may first be given other medicines. If these medicines do not work well enough, your child 
will be given Hyrimoz to reduce the signs and symptoms of his / her disease. 
 
 
2. What you need to know before your child uses Hyrimoz 
 
Do not use Hyrimoz 
 
• if your child is allergic to adalimumab or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in 

section 6). 

• if your child has a severe infection, including tuberculosis, sepsis (blood poisoning) or other 
opportunistic infections (unusual infections associated with a weakened immune system). It is 
important that you tell your doctor if your child shows symptoms of infections, e.g. fever, 
wounds, feeling tired, dental problems (see “Warnings and precautions”). 

• if your child has moderate or severe heart failure. It is important to tell your doctor if your child 
has had or has a serious heart condition (see “Warnings and precautions”). 

 
Warnings and precautions 
 
Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using Hyrimoz. 



85 

 

 
Allergic reaction 
 
• If your child has allergic reactions with symptoms such as chest tightness, wheezing, dizziness, 

swelling or rash, do not inject more Hyrimoz and contact your doctor immediately, since in rare 
cases, these reactions can be life-threatening. 

 
Infection 
 
• If your child has an infection, including long-term or localised infection (for example leg ulcer), 

consult your doctor before starting Hyrimoz. If you are unsure, contact your doctor. 

• Your child might get infections more easily while he / she is receiving Hyrimoz treatment. This 
risk may increase if your child’s lung function is reduced. These infections may be more serious 
and include tuberculosis, infections caused by viruses, fungi, parasites or bacteria, or other 
unusual infectious organisms and sepsis (blood poisoning).  

• In rare cases, these infections may be life-threatening. It is important to tell your doctor if your 
child shows symptoms such as fever, wounds, feeling tired or dental problems. Your doctor may 
recommend temporarily stopping Hyrimoz. 

 
Tuberculosis (TB) 
 
• As cases of tuberculosis have been reported in patients treated with adalimumab, your doctor 

will check your child for signs and symptoms of tuberculosis before starting Hyrimoz. This will 
include a thorough medical evaluation including your child’s medical history and screening tests 
(for example chest X-ray and a tuberculin test). The conduct and results of these tests should be 
recorded on your child’s Patient Reminder Card. It is very important that you tell your doctor if 
your child has ever had tuberculosis, or if he / she has been in close contact with someone who 
has had tuberculosis. Tuberculosis can develop during therapy even if your child has had 
preventative treatment for tuberculosis. If symptoms of tuberculosis (persistent cough, weight 
loss, listlessness, mild fever), or any other infection appear during or after therapy tell your 
doctor immediately. 

 
Travel / recurrent infection 
 
• Tell your doctor if your child has lived or travelled in regions where fungal infections such as 

histoplasmosis, coccidioidomycosis or blastomycosis are common. 

• Tell your doctor if your child has a history of recurrent infections or other conditions that 
increase the risk of infections. 

 
Hepatitis B virus 
 
• Tell your doctor if your child is a carrier of the hepatitis B virus (HBV), if he / she has active 

HBV infection or if you think he / she might be at risk of contracting HBV. Your doctor should 
test your child for HBV. Adalimumab can reactivate HBV infection in people who carry this 
virus. In some rare cases, especially if your child is taking other medicines that suppress the 
immune system, reactivation of HBV infection can be life-threatening. 

 
Surgery or dental procedures 
 
• If your child is about to have surgery or dental procedures tell your doctor that your child is 

taking Hyrimoz. Your doctor may recommend temporarily stopping Hyrimoz. 
 



86 

 

Demyelinating disease 
 
• If your child has or develops demyelinating disease (a disease that affects the insulating layer 

around the nerves, such as multiple sclerosis), your doctor will decide if he / she should receive 
or continue to receive Hyrimoz. Tell your doctor immediately if he / she experiences symptoms 
like changes in vision, weakness in arms or legs or numbness or tingling in any part of the body. 

 
Vaccine 
 
• Certain vaccines contain living but weakened forms of disease-causing bacteria or viruses and 

should not be given during treatment with Hyrimoz in case they cause infections. Check with 
your doctor before your child receives any vaccines. It is recommended that, if possible, 
children be given all the scheduled vaccinations for their age before they start treatment with 
Hyrimoz.  
If your child receives Hyrimoz while she is pregnant, her baby may be at higher risk for getting 
an infection for up to about five months after the last dose she received during pregnancy. It is 
important that you tell her baby's doctors and other health care professionals about your child’s 
Hyrimoz use during herpregnancy so they can decide when her baby should receive any 
vaccine. 

 
Heart failure 
 
• It is important to tell your doctor if your child has had or has a serious heart condition. If your 

child has mild heart failure and is being treated with Hyrimoz, the heart failure status must be 
closely monitored by your doctor. If your child develops new or worsening symptoms of heart 
failure (e.g. shortness of breath, or swelling of your feet), you must contact your doctor 
immediately.  

 
Fever, bruising, bleeding or looking pale 
 
• In some patients the body may fail to produce enough of the blood cells that fight off infections 

or help stop bleeding. If your child develops a fever that does not go away, or he / she bruises or 
bleeds very easily or looks very pale, call your doctor right away. Your doctor may decide to 
stop treatment. 

 
Cancer 
 
• There have been very rare cases of certain kinds of cancer in children and adults taking 

adalimumab or other TNFα blockers. People with more serious rheumatoid arthritis who have 
had the disease for a long time may have a higher than average risk of getting lymphoma and 
leukaemia (cancers that affect blood cells and bone marrow). If your child takes Hyrimoz, the 
risk of getting lymphoma, leukaemia, or other cancers may increase. On rare occasions, a 
specific and severe type of lymphoma has been observed in patients taking adalimumab. Some 
of those patients were also treated with the medicines azathioprine or mercaptopurine. Tell your 
doctor if your child is taking azathioprine or mercaptopurine with Hyrimoz.  

• In addition cases of non-melanoma skin cancer have been observed in patients taking 
adalimumab. If new areas of damaged skin appear during or after treatment or if existing marks 
or areas of damage change appearance, tell your doctor. 

• There have been cases of cancers, other than lymphoma, in patients with a specific type of lung 
disease called chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) treated with another 
TNFα blocker. If your child has COPD, or is a heavy smoker, you should discuss with your 
doctor whether treatment with a TNFα blocker is appropriate. 



87 

 

Autoimmune diseases 

• On rare occasions, treatment with Hyrimoz could result in lupus-like syndrome. Contact your 
doctor, if symptoms such as persistent unexplained rash, fever, joint pain or tiredness occur. 
 

Children and adolescents 
 
• Do not give Hyrimoz to children with polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis below the age of 

2 years. 

• Do not give Hyrimoz to children with paediatric plaque psoriasis or paediatric ulcerative colitis 
below the age of 4 years. 

• Do not give Hyrimoz to children with paediatric Crohn’s disease below the age of 6 years. 

• Do not use the 40 mg pre-filled syringe if doses other than 40 mg are recommended. 
 
Other medicines and Hyrimoz 
 
Tell your doctor or pharmacist if your child is taking, has recently taken or might take any 
other medicines. 
 
Hyrimoz can be taken together with methotrexate or certain disease-modifying anti-rheumatic 
agents (sulfasalazine, hydroxychloroquine, leflunomide and injectable gold preparations), 
corticosteroids or pain medications including non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). 
 
Your child should not take Hyrimoz with medicines containing the active substances anakinra or 
abatacept due to increased risk of serious infection. The combination of adalimumab as well as other 
TNF-antagonists and anakinra or abatacept is not recommended based upon the possible increased 
risk for infections, including serious infections and other potential pharmacological interactions. If 
you have questions, please ask your doctor. 
 
Pregnancy and breast-feeding 
 
• Your child should consider the use of adequate contraception to prevent pregnancy and continue 

its use for at least 5 months after the last Hyrimoz treatment. 

• If your child is pregnant, thinks she may be pregnant or is planning to have a baby, ask her 
doctor for advice before taking this medicine. 

• Hyrimoz should only be used during a pregnancy if needed. 

• According to a pregnancy study, there was no higher risk of birth defects when the mother had 
received adalimumab during pregnancy compared with mothers with the same disease who did 
not receive adalimumab. 

• Hyrimoz can be used during breast-feeding. 

• If your child  receives Hyrimoz during her pregnancy, the baby may have a higher risk for 
getting an infection.  

• It is important that you tell her baby’s doctors and other health care professionals about her 
Hyrimoz use during her pregnancy before the baby receives any vaccine (for more information 
on vaccines see the “Warnings and precautions” section). 

 
Driving and using machines 
 
Hyrimoz may have a minor influence on the ability to drive, cycle or use machines. Room spinning 
sensation (vertigo) and vision disturbances may occur after taking Hyrimoz.

and leave it unopened on your work surface for about 15 to 30 minutes so that it reaches room 
temperature. 

• Take the syringe out of the blister. 
• Look through the viewing window. The solution should be colourless to slightly yellowish as 

well as clear to slightly opalescent. Do not use if any particulates and / or discolorations are 
observed. If you are concerned with the appearance of the solution, then contact your pharmacist 
for assistance.  

• Do not use the syringe if it is broken or the needle guard is activated. Return the syringe and the 
package it came in to the pharmacy. 

• Look at the expiration date (EXP) on your syringe. Do not use the syringe if the expiration date 
has passed.  

 
Contact your pharmacist if the syringe fails any of the above mentioned checks.  
 
1. Choosing your injection site:  
 

• The recommended injection site is the front of your thighs. 
You may also use the lower abdomen, but not the area 5 cm 
around your navel (belly button) (see Figure E).  

• Choose a different site each time you give yourself an 
injection.  

• Do not inject into areas where the skin is tender, bruised, red, 
scaly, or hard. Avoid areas with scars or stretch marks. If you 
have psoriasis, you should NOT inject directly into areas with 
psoriasis plaques.

7. Instructions for use  
 
1. What Hyrimoz is and what it is used for 
 
Hyrimoz contains the active substance adalimumab, a medicine that acts on your body’s immune 
(defence) system.  
 
Hyrimoz is intended for the treatment of the following inflammatory diseases: 
• rheumatoid arthritis, 
• polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis, 
• enthesitis-related arthritis, 
• ankylosing spondylitis, 
• axial spondyloarthritis without radiographic evidence of ankylosing spondylitis, 
• psoriatic arthritis, 
• psoriasis, 
• hidradenitis suppurativa, 
• Crohn’s disease, 
• ulcerative colitis and 
• non-infectious uveitis.  
 
The active ingredient in Hyrimoz, adalimumab, is a monoclonal antibody. Monoclonal antibodies are 
proteins that attach to a specific target in the body.  
 
The target of adalimumab is another protein called tumour necrosis factor (TNFα), which is present at 
increased levels in the inflammatory diseases listed above. By attaching to TNFα, Hyrimoz blocks its 



102 

 

action and reduces the inflammation in these diseases. 
 
Rheumatoid arthritis 
 
Rheumatoid arthritis is an inflammatory disease of the joints. 
 
Hyrimoz is used to treat rheumatoid arthritis in adults. If you have moderate to severe active 
rheumatoid arthritis, you may first be given other disease-modifying medicines, such as methotrexate. 
If these medicines do not work well enough, you will be given Hyrimoz to treat your rheumatoid 
arthritis. 
 
Hyrimoz can also be used to treat severe, active and progressive rheumatoid arthritis without 
previous methotrexate treatment. 
 
Hyrimoz can slow down the damage to the cartilage and bone of the joints caused by the disease and 
improve physical function. 
 
Usually, Hyrimoz is used with methotrexate. If your doctor considers that methotrexate is 
inappropriate, Hyrimoz can be given alone. 
 
Polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis and enthesitis-related arthritis 
 
Polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis and enthesitis-related arthritis are inflammatory diseases of 
the joints that usually first appear in childhood.  
 
Hyrimoz is used to treat polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis in children and adolescents aged 2 
to 17 years and enthesitis-related arthritis in children and adolescents aged 6 to 17 years. Patients 
may first be given other disease-modifying medicines, such as methotrexate. If these medicines do not 
work well enough, patients will be given Hyrimoz to treat their polyarticular juvenile idiopathic 
arthritis or enthesitis-related arthritis. 
 
Ankylosing spondylitis and axial spondyloarthritis without radiographic evidence of ankylosing 
spondylitis 
 
Ankylosing spondylitis and axial spondyloarthritis without radiographic evidence of ankylosing 
spondylitis, are inflammatory diseases of the spine. 
 
Hyrimoz is used in adults to treat these conditions. If you have ankylosing spondylitis or axial 
spondyloarthritis without radiographic evidence of ankylosing spondylitis, you will first be given 
other medicines. If these medicines do not work well enough, you will be given Hyrimoz to reduce 
the signs and symptoms of your disease. 
 
Plaque psoriasis in adults and children 
 
Plaque psoriasis is an inflammatory skin condition that causes red, flaky, crusty patches of skin 
covered with silvery scales. Plaque psoriasis can also affect the nails, causing them to crumble, 
become thickened and lift away from the nail bed which can be painful. Psoriasis is believed to be 
caused by a problem with the body’s immune system that leads to an increased production of skin 
cells. 
 
Hyrimoz is used to treat moderate to severe plaque psoriasis in adults. Hyrimoz is also used to treat 
severe plaque psoriasis in children and adolescents aged 4 to 17 years for whom medicines applied to 
the skin and treatment with UV light have either not worked very well or are not suitable. 
 



103 

 

Psoriatic arthritis 
 
Psoriatic arthritis is an inflammatory disease of the joints associated with psoriasis. 
 
Hyrimoz is used to treat psoriatic arthritis in adults. Hyrimoz can slow down the damage to the 
cartilage and bone of the joints caused by the disease and improve physical function. 
 
Hidradenitis suppurativa in adults and adolescents 
 
Hidradenitis suppurativa (sometimes called acne inversa) is a long-term and often painful 
inflammatory skin disease. Symptoms may include tender nodules (lumps) and abscesses (boils) that 
may leak pus. 
It most commonly affects specific areas of the skin, such as under the breasts, the armpits, inner 
thighs, groin and buttocks. Scarring may also occur in affected areas. 
 
Hyrimoz is used to treat hidradenitis suppurativa in adults and adolescents from 12 years of age. 
Hyrimoz can reduce the number of nodules and abscesses you have, and the pain that is often 
associated with the disease. You may first be given other medicines. If these medicines do not work 
well enough, you will be given Hyrimoz. 
 
Crohn’s disease in adults and children 
 
Crohn’s disease is an inflammatory disease of the gut. 
 
Hyrimoz is used to treat Crohn’s disease in adults and children aged 6 to 17 years. If you have 
Crohn’s disease you will first be given other medicines. If you do not respond well enough to these 
medicines, you will be given Hyrimoz to reduce the signs and symptoms of your Crohn’s disease. 
 
Ulcerative colitis 
 
Ulcerative colitis is an inflammatory disease of the bowel. 
 
Hyrimoz is used to treat ulcerative colitis in adults. If you have ulcerative colitis you will first be 
given other medicines. If these medicines do not work well enough, you will be given Hyrimoz to 
reduce the signs and symptoms of your disease. 
 
Non-infectious uveitis in adults and children 
 
Non-infectious uveitis is an inflammatory disease affecting certain parts of the eye. The inflammation 
leads to a decrease of vision and / or the presence of floaters in the eye (black dots or wispy lines that 
move across the field of vision). Hyrimoz works by reducing this inflammation. 
 
Hyrimoz is used to treat  
• adults with non-infectious uveitis with inflammation affecting the back of the eye. 

• children from 2 years of age with chronic non-infectious uveitis with inflammation affecting the 
front of the eye. 

 
 
2. What you need to know before you use Hyrimoz 
 
Do not use Hyrimoz 
 
• if you are allergic to adalimumab or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in 

section 6). 

• if you have a severe infection, including tuberculosis, sepsis (blood poisoning) or other 
opportunistic infections (unusual infections associated with a weakened immune system). It is 



104 

 

important that you tell your doctor if you have symptoms of infections, e.g. fever, wounds, 
feeling tired, dental problems (see “Warnings and precautions”). 

• if you have moderate or severe heart failure. It is important to tell your doctor if you have had or 
have a serious heart condition (see “Warnings and precautions”). 

 
Warnings and precautions 
 
Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using Hyrimoz. 
 
Allergic reaction 
 
• If you have allergic reactions with symptoms such as chest tightness, wheezing, dizziness, 

swelling or rash, do not inject more Hyrimoz and contact your doctor immediately, since in rare 
cases, these reactions can be life-threatening. 

 
Infection 
 
• If you have an infection, including long-term or localised infection (for example leg ulcer), 

consult your doctor before starting Hyrimoz. If you are unsure, contact your doctor. 

• You might get infections more easily while you are receiving Hyrimoz treatment. This risk may 
increase if your lung function is reduced. These infections may be more serious and include 
tuberculosis, infections caused by viruses, fungi, parasites or bacteria, or other unusual 
infectious organisms and sepsis (blood poisoning).  

• In rare cases, these infections may be life-threatening. It is important to tell your doctor if you 
get symptoms such as fever, wounds, feeling tired or dental problems. Your doctor may 
recommend temporarily stopping Hyrimoz. 

 
Tuberculosis (TB) 
 
• As cases of tuberculosis have been reported in patients treated with adalimumab, your doctor 

will check you for signs and symptoms of tuberculosis before starting Hyrimoz. This will 
include a thorough medical evaluation including your medical history and screening tests (for 
example chest X-ray and a tuberculin test). The conduct and results of these tests should be 
recorded on your Patient Reminder Card. It is very important that you tell your doctor if you 
have ever had tuberculosis, or if you have been in close contact with someone who has had 
tuberculosis. Tuberculosis can develop during therapy even if you have had preventative 
treatment for tuberculosis. If symptoms of tuberculosis (persistent cough, weight loss, 
listlessness, mild fever), or any other infection appear during or after therapy tell your doctor 
immediately. 

 
Travel / recurrent infection 
 
• Tell your doctor if you have lived or travelled in regions where fungal infections such as 

histoplasmosis, coccidioidomycosis or blastomycosis are common. 

• Tell your doctor if you have a history of recurrent infections or other conditions that increase the 
risk of infections. 

 
Hepatitis B virus 
 
• Tell your doctor if you are a carrier of the hepatitis B virus (HBV), if you have active HBV 

infection or if you think you might be at risk of contracting HBV. Your doctor should test you 
for HBV. Adalimumab can reactivate HBV infection in people who carry this virus. In some 
rare cases, especially if you are taking other medicines that suppress the immune system, 
reactivation of HBV infection can be life-threatening. 



105 

 

 
Age over 65 years 
 
• If you are over 65 years you may be more susceptible to infections while taking Hyrimoz. You 

and your doctor should pay special attention to signs of infection while you are being treated 
with Hyrimoz. It is important to tell your doctor if you get symptoms of infections, such as 
fever, wounds, feeling tired or dental problems. 

 
Surgery or dental procedures 
 
• If you are about to have surgery or dental procedures tell your doctor that you are taking 

Hyrimoz. Your doctor may recommend temporarily stopping Hyrimoz. 
 
Demyelinating disease 
 
• If you have or develop demyelinating disease (a disease that affects the insulating layer around 

the nerves, such as multiple sclerosis), your doctor will decide if you should receive or continue 
to receive Hyrimoz. Tell your doctor immediately if you get symptoms like changes in your 
vision, weakness in your arms or legs or numbness or tingling in any part of your body. 

 
Vaccine 
 
• Certain vaccines contain living but weakened forms of disease-causing bacteria or viruses and 

should not be given during treatment with Hyrimoz in case they cause infections. Check with 
your doctor before you receive any vaccines. It is recommended that, if possible, children be 
given all the scheduled vaccinations for their age before they start treatment with Hyrimoz.  
If you receive Hyrimoz while you are pregnant, your baby may be at higher risk for getting an 
infection for up to about five months after the last dose you received during pregnancy. It is 
important that you tell your baby's doctors and other health care professionals about your 
Hyrimoz use during your pregnancy so they can decide when your baby should receive any 
vaccine. 

 
Heart failure 
 
• It is important to tell your doctor if you have had or have a serious heart condition. If you have 

mild heart failure and you are being treated with Hyrimoz, your heart failure status must be 
closely monitored by your doctor. If you develop new or worsening symptoms of heart failure 
(e.g. shortness of breath, or swelling of your feet), you must contact your doctor immediately.  

 
Fever, bruising, bleeding or looking pale 
 
• In some patients the body may fail to produce enough of the blood cells that fight off infections 

or help you to stop bleeding. If you develop a fever that does not go away, or you bruise or 
bleed very easily or look very pale, call your doctor right away. Your doctor may decide to stop 
treatment. 

 
Cancer 
 
• There have been very rare cases of certain kinds of cancer in children and adults taking 

adalimumab or other TNFα blockers. People with more serious rheumatoid arthritis who have 
had the disease for a long time may have a higher than average risk of getting lymphoma and 
leukaemia (cancers that affect blood cells and bone marrow). If you take Hyrimoz the risk of 
getting lymphoma, leukaemia, or other cancers may increase. On rare occasions, a specific and 
severe type of lymphoma has been observed in patients taking adalimumab. Some of those 
patients were also treated with the medicines azathioprine or mercaptopurine. Tell your doctor if 
you are taking azathioprine or mercaptopurine with Hyrimoz.  



106 

 

• In addition cases of non-melanoma skin cancer have been observed in patients taking 
adalimumab. If new areas of damaged skin appear during or after treatment or if existing marks 
or areas of damage change appearance, tell your doctor. 

• There have been cases of cancers, other than lymphoma, in patients with a specific type of lung 
disease called chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) treated with another 
TNFα blocker. If you have COPD, or are a heavy smoker, you should discuss with your doctor 
whether treatment with a TNFα blocker is appropriate for you. 

 
Autoimmune diseases 
 
• On rare occasions, treatment with Hyrimoz could result in lupus-like syndrome. Contact your 

doctor, if symptoms such as persistent unexplained rash, fever, joint pain or tiredness occur. 
 
Children and adolescents 
 
• Do not give Hyrimoz to children with polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis below the age of 

2 years. 

• Do not give Hyrimoz to children with paediatric plaque psoriasis or paediatric ulcerative colitis 
below the age of 4 years. 

• Do not give Hyrimoz to children with paediatric Crohn’s disease below the age of 6 years. 

• Do not use the 40 mg pre-filled syringe if doses other than 40 mg are recommended. 
 
Other medicines and Hyrimoz 
 
Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken or might take any other 
medicines. 
 
Hyrimoz can be taken together with methotrexate or certain disease-modifying anti-rheumatic 
agents (sulfasalazine, hydroxychloroquine, leflunomide and injectable gold preparations), 
corticosteroids or pain medications including non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). 
 
You should not take Hyrimoz with medicines containing the active substances anakinra or abatacept 
due to increased risk of serious infection. The combination of adalimumab as well as other TNF-
antagonists and anakinra or abatacept is not recommended based upon the possible increased risk for 
infections, including serious infections and other potential pharmacological interactions. If you have 
questions, please ask your doctor. 
 
Pregnancy and breast-feeding 
 
• You should consider the use of adequate contraception to prevent pregnancy and continue its 

use for at least 5 months after the last Hyrimoz treatment. 

• If you are pregnant, think you may be pregnant or are planning to have a baby, ask your doctor 
for advice before taking this medicine. 

• Hyrimoz should only be used during a pregnancy if needed. 

• According to a pregnancy study, there was no higher risk of birth defects when the mother had 
received adalimumab during pregnancy compared with mothers with the same disease who did 
not receive adalimumab. 

• Hyrimoz can be used during breast-feeding. 

• If you receive Hyrimoz during your pregnancy, your baby may have a higher risk for getting an 
infection.  



107 

 

• It is important that you tell your baby’s doctors and other health care professionals about your 
Hyrimoz use during your pregnancy before the baby receives any vaccine (for more information 
on vaccines see the “Warnings and precautions” section). 

 
Driving and using machines 
 
Hyrimoz may have a minor influence on your ability to drive, cycle or use machines. Room spinning 
sensation (vertigo) and vision disturbances may occur after taking Hyrimoz. 
 
Hyrimoz contains sodium 
 
This medicine contains less than 1 mmol of sodium (23 mg) per 0.4 ml dose, that is to say essentially 
‘sodium-free’. 
 
 
3. How to use Hyrimoz 
 
Always use this medicine exactly as your doctor or pharmacist has told you. Check with your doctor or 
pharmacist if you are not sure. 
 
Hyrimoz is available as a 40 mg pen as well as 20 mg and 40 mg pre-filled syringes for patients to

The active ingredient in Hyrimoz, adalimumab, is a monoclonal antibody. Monoclonal antibodies are 
proteins that attach to a specific target in the body.  
 



123 

 

The target of adalimumab is another protein called tumour necrosis factor (TNFα), which is present at 
increased levels in the inflammatory diseases listed above. By attaching to TNFα, Hyrimoz blocks its 
action and reduces the inflammation in these diseases. 
 
Rheumatoid arthritis 
 
Rheumatoid arthritis is an inflammatory disease of the joints. 
 
Hyrimoz is used to treat rheumatoid arthritis in adults. If you have moderate to severe active 
rheumatoid arthritis, you may first be given other disease-modifying medicines, such as methotrexate. 
If these medicines do not work well enough, you will be given Hyrimoz to treat your rheumatoid 
arthritis. 
 
Hyrimoz can also be used to treat severe, active and progressive rheumatoid arthritis without 
previous methotrexate treatment.  
 
Hyrimoz can slow down the damage to the cartilage and bone of the joints caused by the disease and 
improve physical function. 
 
Usually, Hyrimoz is used with methotrexate. If your doctor considers that methotrexate is 
inappropriate, Hyrimoz can be given alone. 
 
Polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis and enthesitis-related arthritis 
 
Polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis and enthesitis-related arthritis are inflammatory diseases of 
the joints that usually first appear in childhood.  
 
Hyrimoz is used to treat polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis in children and adolescents aged 2 
to 17 years and enthesitis-related arthritis in children and adolescents aged 6 to 17 years. Patients 
may first be given other disease-modifying medicines, such as methotrexate. If these medicines do not 
work well enough, patients will be given Hyrimoz to treat their polyarticular juvenile idiopathic 
arthritis or enthesitis-related arthritis. 
 
Ankylosing spondylitis and axial spondyloarthritis without radiographic evidence of ankylosing 
spondylitis 
 
Ankylosing spondylitis and axial spondyloarthritis without radiographic evidence of ankylosing 
spondylitis, are inflammatory diseases of the spine. 
 
Hyrimoz is used in adults to treat these conditions. If you have ankylosing spondylitis or axial 
spondyloarthritis without radiographic evidence of ankylosing spondylitis, you will first be given 
other medicines. If these medicines do not work well enough, you will be given Hyrimoz to reduce 
the signs and symptoms of your disease. 
 
Plaque psoriasis in adults and children 
 
Plaque psoriasis is an inflammatory skin condition that causes red, flaky, crusty patches of skin 
covered with silvery scales. Plaque psoriasis can also affect the nails, causing them to crumble, 
become thickened and lift away from the nail bed which can be painful. Psoriasis is believed to be 
caused by a problem with the body’s immune system that leads to an increased production of skin 
cells. 
 
Hyrimoz is used to treat moderate to severe plaque psoriasis in adults. Hyrimoz is also used to treat 
severe plaque psoriasis in children and adolescents aged 4 to 17 years for whom medicines applied 
to the skin and treatment with UV light have either not worked very well or are not suitable. 
 



124 

 

Psoriatic arthritis 
 
Psoriatic arthritis is an inflammatory disease of the joints associated with psoriasis. 
 
Hyrimoz is used to treat psoriatic arthritis in adults. Hyrimoz can slow down the damage to the 
cartilage and bone of the joints caused by the disease and improve physical function. 
 
Hidradenitis suppurativa in adults and adolescents 
 
Hidradenitis suppurativa (sometimes called acne inversa) is a long-term and often painful 
inflammatory skin disease. Symptoms may include tender nodules (lumps) and abscesses (boils) that 
may leak pus. 
It most commonly affects specific areas of the skin, such as under the breasts, the armpits, inner 
thighs, groin and buttocks. Scarring may also occur in affected areas. 
 
Hyrimoz is used to treat hidradenitis suppurativa in adults and adolescents from 12 years of age. 
Hyrimoz can reduce the number of nodules and abscesses you have, and the pain that is often 
associated with the disease. You may first be given other medicines. If these medicines do not work 
well enough, you will be given Hyrimoz. 
 
Crohn’s disease in adults and children 
 
Crohn’s disease is an inflammatory disease of the gut. 
 
Hyrimoz is used to treat Crohn’s disease in adults and children aged 6 to 17 years. If you have 
Crohn’s disease you will first be given other medicines. If you do not respond well enough to these 
medicines, you will be given Hyrimoz to reduce the signs and symptoms of your Crohn’s disease. 
 
Ulcerative colitis 
 
Ulcerative colitis is an inflammatory disease of the bowel. 
 
Hyrimoz is used to treat ulcerative colitis in adults. If you have ulcerative colitis you will first be 
given other medicines. If these medicines do not work well enough, you will be given Hyrimoz to 
reduce the signs and symptoms of your disease. 
 
Non-infectious uveitis in adults and children 
 
Non-infectious uveitis is an inflammatory disease affecting certain parts of the eye. The inflammation 
leads to a decrease of vision and / or the presence of floaters in the eye (black dots or wispy lines that 
move across the field of vision). Hyrimoz works by reducing this inflammation. 
 
Hyrimoz is used to treat  
• adults with non-infectious uveitis with inflammation affecting the back of the eye.  

• children from 2 years of age with chronic non-infectious uveitis with inflammation affecting the 
front of the eye. 

 
 
2. What you need to know before you use Hyrimoz 
 
Do not use Hyrimoz 
 
• if you are allergic to adalimumab or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in 

section 6). 

• if you have a severe infection, including tuberculosis, sepsis (blood poisoning) or other 
opportunistic infections (unusual infections associated with a weakened immune system). It is 



125 

 

important that you tell your doctor if you have symptoms of infections, e.g. fever, wounds, 
feeling tired, dental problems (see “Warnings and precautions”). 

• if you have moderate or severe heart failure. It is important to tell your doctor if you have had or 
have a serious heart condition (see “Warnings and precautions”). 

 
Warnings and precautions 
 
Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using Hyrimoz. 
 
Allergic reaction 
 
• If you have allergic reactions with symptoms such as chest tightness, wheezing, dizziness, 

swelling or rash, do not inject more Hyrimoz and contact your doctor immediately, since in rare 
cases, these reactions can be life-threatening. 

 
Infection 
 
• If you have an infection, including long-term or localised infection (for example leg ulcer), 

consult your doctor before starting Hyrimoz. If you are unsure, contact your doctor. 

• You might get infections more easily while you are receiving Hyrimoz treatment. This risk may 
increase if your lung function is reduced. These infections may be more serious and include 
tuberculosis, infections caused by viruses, fungi, parasites or bacteria, or other unusual 
infectious organisms and sepsis (blood poisoning).  

• In rare cases, these infections may be life-threatening. It is important to tell your doctor if you 
get symptoms such as fever, wounds, feeling tired or dental problems. Your doctor may 
recommend temporarily stopping Hyrimoz. 

 
Tuberculosis (TB) 
 
• As cases of tuberculosis have been reported in patients treated with adalimumab, your doctor 

will check you for signs and symptoms of tuberculosis before starting Hyrimoz. This will 
include a thorough medical evaluation including your medical history and screening tests (for 
example chest X-ray and a tuberculin test). The conduct and results of these tests should be 
recorded on your Patient Reminder Card. It is very important that you tell your doctor if you 
have ever had tuberculosis, or if you have been in close contact with someone who has had 
tuberculosis. Tuberculosis can develop during therapy even if you have had preventative 
treatment for tuberculosis. If symptoms of tuberculosis (persistent cough, weight loss, 
listlessness, mild fever), or any other infection appear during or after therapy tell your doctor 
immediately. 

 
Travel / recurrent infection 
 
• Tell your doctor if you have lived or travelled in regions where fungal infections such as 

histoplasmosis, coccidioidomycosis or blastomycosis are common. 

• Tell your doctor if you have a history of recurrent infections or other conditions that increase the 
risk of infections. 

 
Hepatitis B virus 
 
• Tell your doctor if you are a carrier of the hepatitis B virus (HBV), if you have active HBV 

infection or if you think you might be at risk of contracting HBV. Your doctor should test you 
for HBV. Adalimumab can reactivate HBV infection in people who carry this virus. In some 
rare cases, especially if you are taking other medicines that suppress the immune system, 
reactivation of HBV infection can be life-threatening. 



126 

 

 
Age over 65 years 
 
• If you are over 65 years you may be more susceptible to infections while taking Hyrimoz. You 

and your doctor should pay special attention to signs of infection while you are being treated 
with Hyrimoz. It is important to tell your doctor if you get symptoms of infections, such as 
fever, wounds, feeling tired or dental problems. 

 
Surgery or dental procedures 
 
• If you are about to have surgery or dental procedures tell your doctor that you are taking 

Hyrimoz. Your doctor may recommend temporarily stopping Hyrimoz. 
 
Demyelinating disease 

 
• If you have or develop demyelinating disease (a disease that affects the insulating layer around 

the nerves, such as multiple sclerosis), your doctor will decide if you should receive or continue 
to receive Hyrimoz. Tell your doctor immediately if you get symptoms like changes in your 
vision, weakness in your arms or legs or numbness or tingling in any part of your body. 

 
Vaccine 
 
• Certain vaccines contain living but weakened forms of disease-causing bacteria or viruses and 

should not be given during treatment with Hyrimoz in case they cause infections. Check with 
your doctor before you receive any vaccines. It is recommended that, if possible, children be 
given all the scheduled vaccinations for their age before they start treatment with Hyrimoz. 
If you receive Hyrimoz while you are pregnant, your baby may be at higher risk for getting an 
infection for up to about five months after the last dose you received during pregnancy. It is 
important that you tell your baby's doctors and other health care professionals about your 
Hyrimoz use during your pregnancy so they can decide when your baby should receive any 
vaccine. 

 
Heart failure 
 
• It is important to tell your doctor if you have had or have a serious heart condition. If you have 

mild heart failure and you are being treated with Hyrimoz, your heart failure status must be 
closely monitored by your doctor. If you develop new or worsening symptoms of heart failure 
(e.g. shortness of breath, or swelling of your feet), you must contact your doctor immediately.  

 
Fever, bruising, bleeding or looking pale 
 
• In some patients the body may fail to produce enough of the blood cells that fight off infections 

or help you to stop bleeding. If you develop a fever that does not go away, or you bruise or 
bleed very easily or look very pale, call your doctor right away. Your doctor may decide to stop 
treatment. 

 
Cancer 
 
• There have been very rare cases of certain kinds of cancer in children and adults taking 

adalimumab or other TNFα blockers. People with more serious rheumatoid arthritis who have 
had the disease for a long time may have a higher than average risk of getting lymphoma and 
leukaemia (cancers that affect blood cells and bone marrow). If you take Hyrimoz the risk of 
getting lymphoma, leukaemia, or other cancers may increase. On rare occasions, a specific and 
severe type of lymphoma has been observed in patients taking adalimumab. Some of those 
patients were also treated with the medicines azathioprine or mercaptopurine. Tell your doctor if 
you are taking azathioprine or mercaptopurine with Hyrimoz.  



127 

 

• In addition cases of non-melanoma skin cancer have been observed in patients taking 
adalimumab. If new areas of damaged skin appear during or after treatment or if existing marks 
or areas of damage change appearance, tell your doctor. 

• There have been cases of cancers, other than lymphoma, in patients with a specific type of lung 
disease called chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) treated with another 
TNFα blocker. If you have COPD, or are a heavy smoker, you should discuss with your doctor 
whether treatment with a TNFα blocker is appropriate for you. 

 
Autoimmune diseases 

• On rare occasions, treatment with Hyrimoz could result in lupus-like syndrome. Contact your 
doctor, if symptoms such as persistent unexplained rash, fever, joint pain or tiredness occur. 

 
Children and adolescents 
 
• Do not give Hyrimoz to children with polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis below the age of 

2 years. 

• Do not give Hyrimoz to children with paediatric plaque psoriasis or paediatric ulcerative colitis 
below the age of 4 years. 

• Do not give Hyrimoz to children with paediatric Crohn’s disease below the age of 6 years. 

• Do not use the 40 mg pre-filled pen if doses other than 40 mg are recommended. 
 
Other medicines and Hyrimoz 
 
Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken or might take any other 
medicines. 
 
Hyrimoz can be taken together with methotrexate or certain disease-modifying anti-rheumatic 
agents (sulfasalazine, hydroxychloroquine, leflunomide and injectable gold preparations), 
corticosteroids or pain medications including non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). 
 
You should not take Hyrimoz with medicines containing the active substances anakinra or abatacept 
due to increased risk of serious infection. The combination of adalimumab as well as other TNF-
antagonists and anakinra or abatacept is not recommended based upon the possible increased risk for 
infections, including serious infections and other potential pharmacological interactions. If you have 
questions, please ask your doctor. 
 
Pregnancy and breast-feeding 
 
• You should consider the use of adequate contraception to prevent pregnancy and continue its 

use for at least 5 months after the last Hyrimoz treatment. 

• If you are pregnant, think you may be pregnant or are planning to have a baby, ask your doctor 
for advice before taking this medicine. 

• Hyrimoz should only be used during a pregnancy if needed. 

• According to a pregnancy study, there was no higher risk of birth defects when the mother had 
received adalimumab during pregnancy compared with mothers with the same disease who did 
not receive adalimumab. 

• Hyrimoz can be used during breast-feeding. 

• If you receive Hyrimoz during your pregnancy, your baby may have a higher risk for getting an 
infection.  



128 

 

• It is important that you tell your baby’s doctors and other health care professionals about your 
Hyrimoz use during your pregnancy before the baby receives any vaccine (for more information 
on vaccines see the “Warnings and precautions” section). 

 
Driving and using machines 
 
Hyrimoz may have a minor influence on your ability to drive, cycle or use machines. Room spinning 
sensation (vertigo) and vision disturbances may occur after taking Hyrimoz. 
 
Hyrimoz contains sodium 
 
This medicine contains less than 1 mmol of sodium (23 mg) per 0.4 ml dose, that is to say essentially 
‘sodium-free’. 
 
 
3. How to use Hyrimoz 
 
Always use this medicine exactly as your doctor or pharmacist has told you. Check with your doctor 
or pharmacist if you are not sure.  
 
Hyrimoz is available as a 40 mg pen as well as 20 mg and 40 mg pre-filled syringes for patients to 
administer a full 20 mg or 40 mg dose.

{'Title': '1. what hyrimoz is and what it is used for', 'Section_Content': "hyrimoz contains the active substance adalimumab, a medicine that acts on your body's immune (defence) system. hyrimoz is intended for the treatment of the following inflammatory diseases: polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis, enthesitis-related arthritis paediatric plaque psoriasis, paediatric crohn's disease, paediatric non-infectious uveitis. the active ingredient in hyrimoz, adalimumab, is a monoclonal antibody. monoclonal antibodies are proteins that attach to a specific target in the body. the target of adalimumab is another protein called tumour necrosis factor (tnfα), which is present at increased levels in the inflammatory diseases listed above. by attaching to tnfα, hyrimoz blocks its action and reduces the inflammation in these diseases. polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis and enthesitis-related arthritis polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis and enthesitis-related arthritis are inflammatory diseases of the joints that usually first appear in childhood. hyrimoz is used to treat polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis in children and adolescents aged 2 84 to 17 years and enthesitis-related arthritis in children and adolescents aged 6 to 17 years. patients may first be given other disease-modifying medicines, such as methotrexate. if these medicines do not work well enough, patients will be given hyrimoz to treat their polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis or enthesitis-related arthritis. paediatric plaque psoriasis plaque psoriasis is an inflammatory skin condition that causes red, flaky, crusty patches of skin covered with silvery scales. plaque psoriasis can also affect the nails, causing them to crumble, become thickened and lift away from the nail bed which can be painful. psoriasis is believed to be caused by a problem with the body's immune system that leads to an increased production of skin cells. hyrimoz is also used to treat severe plaque psoriasis in children and adolescents aged 4 to 17 years for whom medicines applied to the skin and treatment with uv light have either not worked very well or are not suitable. paediatric crohn's disease crohn's disease is an inflammatory disease of the gut. hyrimoz is used to treat moderate to severe crohn's disease in children and adolescents aged 6 to 17 years. your child may first be given other medicines. if these medicines do not work well enough, your child will be given hyrimoz to reduce the signs and symptoms of his / her disease. paediatric non-infectious uveitis non-infectious uveitis is an inflammatory disease affecting certain parts of the eye. the inflammation leads to a decrease of vision and / or the presence of floaters in the eye (black dots or wispy lines that move across the field of vision). hyrimoz works by reducing this inflammation. hyrimoz is used to treat children from 2 years of age with chronic non-infectious uveitis with inflammation affecting the front of the eye. your child may first be given other medicines. if these medicines do not work well enough, your child will be given hyrimoz to reduce the signs and symptoms of his / her disease.", 'Entity_Recognition': [{'Text': 'hyrimoz', 'Type': 'PRODUCT_NAME', 'BeginOffset': 0, 'EndOffset': 0}, {'Text': 'hyrimoz', 'Type': 'TREATMENT', 'BeginOffset': 0,

{'Title': '2. what you need to know before your child uses hyrimoz', 'Section_Content': 'do not use hyrimoz if your child is allergic to adalimumab or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6). if your child has a severe infection, including tuberculosis, sepsis (blood poisoning) or other opportunistic infections (unusual infections associated with a weakened immune system). it is important that you tell your doctor if your child shows symptoms of infections, e.g. fever, wounds, feeling tired, dental problems (see "warnings and precautions"). if your child has moderate or severe heart failure. it is important to tell your doctor if your child has had or has a serious heart condition (see "warnings and precautions"). warnings and precautions talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using hyrimoz. allergic reaction if your child has allergic reactions with symptoms such as chest tightness, wheezing, dizziness, swelling or rash, do not inject more hyrimoz and contact your doctor immediately, since in rare cases, these reactions can be life-threatening. infection if your child has an infection, including long-term or localised infection (for example leg ulcer), consult your doctor before starting hyrimoz. if you are unsure, contact your doctor. your child might get infections more easily while he / she is receiving hyrimoz treatment. this risk may increase if your child\'s lung function is reduced. these infections may be more serious and include tuberculosis, infections caused by viruses, fungi, parasites or bacteria, or other unusual infectious organisms and sepsis (blood poisoning). in rare cases, these infections may be life-threatening. it is important to tell your doctor if your child shows symptoms such as fever, wounds, feeling tired or dental problems. your doctor may recommend temporarily stopping hyrimoz. tuberculosis (tb) as cases of tuberculosis have been reported in patients treated with adalimumab, your doctor will check your child for signs and symptoms of tuberculosis before starting hyrimoz. this will include a thorough medical evaluation including your child\'s medical history and screening tests (for example chest x-ray and a tuberculin test). the conduct and results of these tests should be recorded on your child\'s patient reminder card. it is very important that you tell your doctor if your child has ever had tuberculosis, or if he / she has been in close contact with someone who has had tuberculosis. tuberculosis can develop during therapy even if your child has had preventative treatment for tuberculosis. if symptoms of tuberculosis (persistent cough, weight loss, listlessness, mild fever), or any other infection appear during or after therapy tell your doctor immediately. travel / recurrent infection tell your doctor if your child has lived or travelled in regions where fungal infections such as histoplasmosis, coccidioidomycosis or blastomycosis are common. tell your doctor if your child has a history of recurrent infections or other conditions that increase the risk of infections. hepatitis b virus tell your doctor if your child is a carrier of the hepatitis b virus (hbv), if he / she has active hbv infection or if you think he / she might be at risk of contracting hbv. your doctor should test your child for hbv. adalimumab can reactivate hbv infection in people who carry this virus. in some rare cases, especially if your child is taking other medicines that suppress the immune system, reactivation of hbv infection can be life-threatening. surgery or dental procedures if your child is about to have surgery or dental procedures tell your doctor that your child is taking hyrimoz. your doctor may recommend temporarily stopping hyrimoz. demyelinating disease if your child has or develops demyelinating disease (a disease that affects the insulating layer around the nerves, such as multiple sclerosis), your doctor will decide if he / she should receive or continue to receive hyrimoz. tell your doctor immediately if he / she experiences symptoms like changes in vision, weakness in arms or legs or numbness or tingling in any part of the body. vaccine certain vaccines contain living but weakened forms of disease-causing bacteria or viruses and should not be given during treatment with hyrimoz in case they cause infections. check with your doctor before your child receives any vaccines. it is recommended that, if possible, children be given all the scheduled vaccinations for their age before they start treatment with hyrimoz. if your child receives hyrimoz while she is pregnant, her baby may be at higher risk for getting an infection for up to about five months after the last dose she received during pregnancy. it is important that you tell her baby\'s doctors and other health care professionals about your child\'s hyrimoz use during herpregnancy so they can decide when her baby should receive any vaccine. heart failure it is important to tell your doctor if your child has had or has a serious heart condition. if your child has mild heart failure and is being treated with hyrimoz, the heart failure status must be closely monitored by your doctor. if your child develops new or worsening symptoms of heart failure (e.g. shortness of breath, or swelling of your feet), you must contact your doctor immediately. fever, bruising, bleeding or looking pale in some patients the body may fail to produce enough of the blood cells that fight off infections or help stop bleeding. if your child develops a fever that does not go away, or he / she bruises or bleeds very easily or looks very pale, call your doctor right away. your doctor may decide to stop treatment. cancer there have been very rare cases of certain kinds of cancer in children and adults taking adalimumab or other tnfα blockers. people with more serious rheumatoid arthritis who have had the disease for a long time may have a higher than average risk of getting lymphoma and leukaemia (cancers that affect blood cells and bone marrow). if your child takes hyrimoz, the risk of getting lymphoma, leukaemia, or other cancers may increase. on rare occasions, a specific and severe type of lymphoma has been observed in patients taking adalimumab. some of those patients were also treated with the medicines azathioprine or mercaptopurine. tell your doctor if your child is taking azathioprine or mercaptopurine with hyrimoz. in addition cases of non-melanoma skin cancer have been observed in patients taking adalimumab. if new areas of damaged skin appear during or after treatment or if existing marks or areas of damage change appearance, tell your doctor. there have been cases of cancers, other than lymphoma, in patients with a specific type of lung disease called chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (copd) treated with another tnfα blocker. if your child has copd, or is a heavy smoker, you should discuss with your doctor whether treatment with a tnfα blocker is appropriate. autoimmune diseases on rare occasions, treatment with hyrimoz could result in lupus-like syndrome. contact your doctor, if symptoms such as persistent unexplained rash, fever, joint pain or tiredness occur. children and adolescents do not give hyrimoz to children with polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis below the age of 2 years. do not give hyrimoz to children with paediatric plaque psoriasis or paediatric ulcerative colitis below the age of 4 years. do not give hyrimoz to children with paediatric crohn\'s disease below the age of 6 years. do not use the 40 mg pre-filled syringe if doses other than 40 mg are recommended. other medicines and hyrimoz tell your doctor or pharmacist if your child is taking, has recently taken or might take any other medicines. hyrimoz can be taken together with methotrexate or certain disease-modifying anti-rheumatic agents (sulfasalazine, hydroxychloroquine, leflunomide and injectable gold preparations), corticosteroids or pain medications including non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (nsaids). your child should not take hyrimoz with medicines containing the active substances anakinra or abatacept due to increased risk of serious infection. the combination of adalimumab as well as other tnf-antagonists and anakinra or abatacept is not recommended based upon the possible increased risk for infections, including serious infections and other potential pharmacological interactions. if you have questions, please ask your doctor. pregnancy and breast-feeding your child should consider the use of adequate contraception to prevent pregnancy and continue its use for at least 5 months after the last hyrimoz treatment. if your child is pregnant, thinks she may be pregnant or is planning to have a baby, ask her doctor for advice before taking this medicine. hyrimoz should only be used during a pregnancy if needed. according to a pregnancy study, there was no higher risk of birth defects when the mother had received adalimumab during pregnancy compared with mothers with the same disease who did not receive adalimumab. hyrimoz can be used during breast-feeding. if your child receives hyrimoz during her pregnancy, the baby may have a higher risk for getting an infection. it is important that you tell her baby\'s doctors and other health care professionals about her hyrimoz use during her pregnancy before the baby receives any vaccine (for more information on vaccines see the "warnings and precautions" section). driving and using machines hyrimoz may have a minor influence on the ability to drive, cycle or use machines. room spinning sensation (vertigo) and vision disturbances may occur after taking hyrimoz. hyrimoz contains sodium this medicine contains less than 1 mmol of sodium (23 mg) per 0.4 ml dose, that is to say essentially \'sodium-free\'.', 'Entity_Recognition': [{'Text': 'hyrimoz', 'Type': 'PRODUCT_NAME', 'BeginOffset': 0, 'EndOffset': 0}, {'Text':
