Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Interventional

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.
  • Phase 2

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 75 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

INCLUSION CRITERIA

Subjects will be eligible to begin study participation if they meet all of the following inclusion criteria:

  • Subjects must give written informed consent
  • Male or female subjects ≥18 to ≤75 years of age (at randomization in Study ELN100226-RA201)
  • Subjects must have been randomized in Study ELN100226-RA201;
  • Subjects who have completed the Month 6 visit of Study ELN100226-RA201 OR Subjects who have an inadequate therapeutic response (defined as a < 20% reduction from baseline [Month 0 in Study ELN100226-RA201] for both painful/tender and swollen joint counts) after receiving at least 4 infusions of study drug and has not been rescued with other RA medications during the treatment phase of Study ELN100226-RA201;
  • Subjects must be taking MTX at the same dose last used in Study ELN100226-RA201;
  • Female subjects of childbearing potential agreed to use adequate, contraceptive methods (either intrauterine device [IUD], oral or depot contraceptive, or barrier plus spermicide). Female subjects of childbearing potential used adequate contraception for at least 2 months prior to study entry and continued contraception for at least 3 months after their last infusion of study drug;
  • Subjects must be willing and able to complete all planned study procedures.

EXCLUSION CRITERIA

Subjects will be excluded from the study if they meet any of the following exclusion criteria:

  • Females who are pregnant or breastfeeding or those planning to become pregnant in the next 14 months;
  • Subjects who have experienced anaphylaxis, angioedema, urticaria, clinical syndrome diagnostic of serum sickness, or biopsy-proven vasculitis to a previous infusion of study drug;
  • Subjects who received rescue intervention in Study ELN100226-RA201, defined as an increase in dose of an existing permitted concomitant treatment of RA or the introduction of a new treatment of RA;
  • Subject who are expected to be unavailable for the duration of the trial, likely to be noncompliant with the Protocol, or who are felt to be unsuitable by the Investigator for any other reason;
  • Subjects with a history of a malignancy (other than surgically excised basal or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin);
  • Subjects with a history of clinically significant and/or persistent gastrointestinal, pulmonary, chronic infection, cardiovascular, renal, hepatic, neurological, dermatological, immunological, major psychiatric (including drug or alcohol abusers) or hematological illness, which in the opinion of the Investigator places the subject at unacceptable risk for participation in the study;
  • Subjects who intend to donate blood or blood products during the period of the study or within one month following completion of the study.

The number and proportion of subjects with SAEs
The number and percentage of subjects who discontinue early from the study due to an AE
Assessment of clinical laboratory parameters, physical examination, and vital signs.

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
September 1, 2004

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
