At onset, what remission rate is reported?

• A. 30%
• B. 56%
• C. 13.5%
• D. 70%

Answer: (A)

Remission rate at onset is about how many patients meet remission criteria right after starting therapy, a snapshot of early response. If the reported onset remission rate is 30%, that means roughly three in ten participants showed remission at the initial assessment after beginning treatment. This figure sets a baseline for how effective the intervention appears to be in the very early phase and can be used to compare later follow-up data on durability or to gauge how much additional therapy might be needed. Keep in mind that what counts as remission depends on the study’s specific criteria, so the exact meaning hinges on those definitions.
