Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Number of Participants With Adverse Events
An adverse event (AE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation subject administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. The investigator assessed the relationship of each event to the use of study drug as either probably related, possibly related, probably not related or not related. A serious adverse event (SAE) is an event that results in death, is life-threatening, requires or prolongs hospitalization, results in a congenital anomaly, persistent or significant disability/incapacity or is an important medical event that, based on medical judgment, may jeopardize the subject and may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent any of the outcomes listed above. Treatment-emergent events (TEAEs/TESAEs) are defined as any event with an onset date on or after the first dose of study drug and up to 70 days after the last dose. See the Adverse Event section for details.

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long term efficacy and safety of adalimumab participants with non-infectious intermediate-, posterior- or pan-uveitis.
Detailed Description
This study was initially planned to run for 78 weeks but was extended for ethical reasons, to avoid leaving participants untreated who had responded well to adalimumab treatment, so that participants were allowed to remain in the study until regulatory and/or reimbursement approval for the treatment of uveitis in adults was obtained for their respective countries. Data were collected through Week 366 (maximum), but because of decreasing sample size that became too small toward the end of the study to allow for meaningful conclusion, data cut off for efficacy analyses (intent to treat [ITT] population) occurred at Week 246, as less than 10% of participants in the ITT set had visits beyond this timepoint.

Title
Percentage of Participants With Grade ≤0.5+ in Anterior Chamber (AC) Cells in Both Eyes on Slit Lamp Exam According to Standardization of Uveitis Nomenclature (SUN) Criteria Over Time
Description
Slit lamp examinations were conducted at each visit to assess AC cell count. The number of AC cells observed within a 1 mm * 1 mm slit beam was used to determine the grade according to the Standardization of Uveitis Nomenclature (SUN) criteria: Grade 0: ˂ 1 cell; Grade 0.5+: 1 - 5 cells; Grade 1+: 6 - 15 cells; Grade 2+: 16 - 25 cells; Grade 3+: 26 - 50 cells; and Grade 4+: ≥ 50 cells.
Time Frame
Weeks 0, 2, 4, 8, 12, 18, 30, 42, 54, 66, 78, 90, 102, 114, 126, 138, 150, 162, 174, 186, 198, 210, 222, 234, and 246
Title
Percentage of Participants Achieving a ≥50% Reduction in Immunosuppression Load Relative to Baseline Over Time Among Participants With Inactive Uveitis at Study Entry
Description
Immunosuppression load was assessed using a weighted semiquantitative scale, applying grades ranging from 0 to 9 for each immunosuppressive agent on a scale for the total daily dose in milligrams per kilogram per day or per week if dosed weekly. A higher score indicating a higher immunosuppression load and a lower or decreased score indicated improvement or less need for immunosuppressive therapy. The grading scheme was used to accommodate the simultaneous use of multiple agents and provided a combined, single numeric score for the total immunosuppression load per unit body weight per day at each visit. For participants receiving multiple medications, the sum of the grading scores for each drug was used to calculate a total immunosuppression score at each visit. Data not presented after Week 234 as no participants remained on study as of Week 234.

Title
Percentage of Participants With Grade ≤0.5+ in VH in Both Eyes on Indirect Ophthalmoscopy According to NEI/SUN Criteria Over Time
Description
Vitreous haze was measured using dilated indirect ophthalmoscopy (DIO) and assessed by the Investigator according to NEI and SUN criteria:
Grade 0: No evident vitreous haze; Grade 0.5+: Slight blurring of the optic disc margin because of the haze; normal striations and reflex of the nerve fiber layer cannot be visualized; Grade 1+: Permits a better definition of both the optic nerve head and the retinal vessels (compared to higher grades); Grade 2+: Permits better visualization of the retinal vessels (compared to higher grades); Grade 3+: Permits the observer to see the optic nerve head, but the borders are quite blurry; Grade 4+: Optic nerve head is obscured.

Title
Change in National Eye Institute (NEI) Visual Functioning Questionnaire (VFQ-25) Score at Each Study Time Point Relative to Baseline for Participants Who Had Inactive Uveitis at Study Entry Over Time
Description
The National Eye Institute (NEI) Visual Functioning Questionnaire (VFQ-25) is an ocular disease-specific survey that measures the influence of visual disability and visual symptoms on generic health domains such as emotional well-being and social functioning, in addition to task-oriented domains related to daily visual functioning.The VFQ-25 consists of a base set of 25 vision-targeted questions plus an additional single-item general health rating question. The overall composite score ranges from 0 to 100, where higher scores or increases in score indicate better vision-related functioning. Baseline was defined as Week 0 for participants with inactive uveitis.
