Protocol summary

Study aim
Determination of the effect of Adalimumab on mitochondrial function and Sonic hedgehog signaling pathway in peripheral blood mononuclear cells in rheumatoid arthritis patients
Design
Before and after clinical trial, no control group, no randomization, pilot study on 10 patients, The final sample size will be calculated using the results of an pilot study.
Settings and conduct
Prospective study, comparative clinical trial (before and after treatment), rheumatoid arthritis patients in Shahid Beheshti Medical Center, Hamadan. Confirmation of disease based on ACR criteria.

During the study, patients continued the initial treatment protocol, including conventional DMARDs, including methotrexate. Treatment with Adalimumab is started at the same time. Blood samples before and after 12 weeks of treatment, tests related to mitochondrial function and Sonic hedgehog messaging pathway, oxidative stress and apoptosis
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion critria: Informed and voluntary consent Passing the initial treatment period Sero positive patients will be included in the study Preparation for receiving biological medicine with physician approval Exclusion critria: All patients with a history of autoimmune, inflammatory, infectious disease in the last 6 months Taking biologic anti-TNF drug Previous treatment with adalimumab
Intervention groups
There is only one intervention group: Rheumatoid arthritis patients who are prepared to receive adalimumab with a doctor's approval. The effect of the drug on them before and after treatment is evaluated. The drug will be injected 40 mg every two weeks for 12 weeks.
Main outcome variables
Reactive Oxygen Species, Mitochondrial membrane potential, Adenosine Triphosphate
