Secondary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
Number of achievers in Assessment in
Ankylosing spondylitis (ASAS20)
response criteria at week 6 and week 12, where
the achievers are defined
as subjects experiencing at least 20 %
improvement and an absolute improvement of at
least one unit as compared to baseline in at least
3 out of four domains, with no deterioration
(defined as a worsening of at least
20 % or an absolute increase of at least one unit
from baseline) in the Remaining domain.

The four domains of response criteria are

during the previous week (assessed by 0-10cm
VAS)
2. Subjects assessment of pain during the
previous week, represented by total back pain
score (assessed by 0-10cm VAS)
3. Function, represented by Bath Ankylosing
Spondylitis Functional Index (BASFI)
score, (assessed by 0-10cm VAS)
4. Inflammation represented by the mean of the severity and duration of morning stiffness (i.e question 5 and 6 of the BASDAI assessed by 0-10cm vas) 
At week 6 and 12 (EOS)

Brief Summary   Adalimumab is a biosimilar which is an anti TNF medicine. TNF are found in the synovial fluid of subjects with AS and plays an important role in pathologic inflammation. Adalimumab binds specifically to TNF-alpha and blocks its interaction. This phase Iv study will be conducted to assess safety and efficacy of biosimilar adalimumab injection where primary endpoint is to assess safety and secondary endpoint is to assess efficacy through number of achievers improved on ASAS 20 criteria.
