To evaluate the responsiveness of the EULAR Sjögren's Syndrome Patient Reported Index (ESSPRI) and EULAR Sjögren's Syndrome Disease Activity Index (ESSDAI) in patients with primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) treated with rituximab. ⋯ ESSPRI and ESSDAI are sensitive measures of change in disease activity after therapeutic intervention, which supports the usefulness of these indices for future clinical trials in patients with pSS. The responsiveness of ESSDAI was greater than that of ESSPRI.
