Methotrexate Withdrawal Study of Tofacitinib Modified Release Formulation in Subjects With Rheumatoid Arthritis

November 13, 2019 updated by: Pfizer

A PHASE 3B/4 RANDOMIZED DOUBLE BLIND PLACEBO CONTROLLED STUDY OF METHOTREXATE (MTX) WITHDRAWAL IN SUBJECTS WITH RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS (RA) TREATED WITH TOFACITINIB 11MG MODIFIED RELEASE (MR) FORMULATION

This study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tofacitinib modified release formulation (11mg QD) versus tofacitinib modified release formulation plus continued methotrexate treatment in subjects with moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis who are insufficiently responding to their stable dose of methotrexate treatment.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Double Blind Phase: Change From Randomization in Disease Activity Score in 28 Joints Using 4 Variables (DAS28-4) (Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate [ESR]) at Week 48
Time Frame: Randomization (last non-missing measurement on or prior to the first dosing date in DB phase at Week 24), Week 48
DAS28 is a measure of disease activity in participants with rheumatoid arthritis. DAS28-4 (ESR) was calculated from swollen joint count (SJC) and tender/painful joint count (TJC) using 28 joints count, ESR (millimeters per hour [mm/hr]) and participant global assessment of arthritis (PtGA) on a 100 millimeter (mm) visual analog scale (VAS: scores ranging from 0 mm [very well] to 100 mm [worst], higher scores indicate worse health condition). Total DAS28-4 (ESR) score range: 0 (none) to 9.4 (extreme disease activity), higher score indicated more disease activity. DAS28-4 (ESR) less than or equal to (<=) 3.2 implied low disease activity and greater than (>) 3.2 to <=5.1 implied moderate disease activity, >5.1 implied high disease activity, and DAS28-4 (ESR) less than (<) 2.6 implied remission. DAS28-4 (ESR) = 0.56*sqrt(TJC28) + 0.28*sqrt(SJC28) + 0.70*In(ESR in mm/hour) + 0.014*PtGA in mm; ln = natural logarithm, sqrt = square root of.
Randomization (last non-missing measurement on or prior to the first dosing date in DB phase at Week 24), Week 48

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Double Blind Phase: Change From Randomization in DAS28-4 ESR at Week 36
Time Frame: Randomization (last non-missing measurement on or prior to the first dosing date in DB phase at Week 24), Week 36
DAS28 is a measure of disease activity in participants with rheumatoid arthritis. DAS28-4 (ESR) was calculated from SJC and TJC using 28 joints count, ESR (mm/hr) and PtGA on a 100 millimeter (mm) VAS (VAS: scores ranging from 0 mm [very well] to 100 mm [worst], higher scores indicate worse health condition). Total DAS28-4 (ESR) score range: 0 (none) to 9.4 (extreme disease activity), higher score indicated more disease activity. DAS28-4 (ESR) less than or equal to (<=) 3.2 implied low disease activity and greater than (>) 3.2 to <=5.1 implied moderate disease activity, >5.1 implied high disease activity, and DAS28-4 (ESR) less than (<) 2.6 implied remission. DAS28-4 (ESR) = 0.56*sqrt(TJC28) + 0.28*sqrt(SJC28) + 0.70*In(ESR in mm/hour) + 0.014*PtGA in mm; ln = natural logarithm, sqrt = square root of.
Randomization (last non-missing measurement on or prior to the first dosing date in DB phase at Week 24), Week 36
Double Blind Phase: Change From Randomization in DAS28-4 (C-reactive Protein [CRP]) at Weeks 36 and 48
Time Frame: Randomization (last non-missing measurement on or prior to the first dosing date in DB phase at Week 24), Weeks 36 and 48
DAS28 is a measure of disease activity in participants with rheumatoid arthritis. DAS28-4 (CRP) was calculated from SJC and TJC using 28 joints count, CRP (milligrams per liter [mg/L]) and PtGA on a 100 mm VAS (VAS: scores ranging from 0 mm [very well] to 100 mm [worst], higher scores indicate worse health condition). Total DAS28-4 (CRP) score range: 0 (none) to 9.4 (extreme disease activity), higher score indicated more disease activity. DAS28-4 (CRP) <= 3.2 implied low disease activity and > 3.2 to <=5.1 implied moderate disease activity, >5.1 implied high disease activity, and DAS28-4 (CRP) < 2.6 implied remission. DAS28-4 (CRP) = 0.56*sqrt(TJC28) + 0.28*sqrt(SJC28) + 0.36*ln(CRP in mg/L +1) + 0.014*PtGA in mm+ 0.96; ln = natural logarithm, sqrt = square root of.
Randomization (last non-missing measurement on or prior to the first dosing date in DB phase at Week 24), Weeks 36 and 48
Double Blind Phase: Change From Randomization in Clinical Disease Activity Index (CDAI) at Weeks 36 and 48
Time Frame: Randomization (last non-missing measurement on or prior to the first dosing date in DB phase at Week 24), Weeks 36 and 48
CDAI was calculated from tender and swollen joints using 28 joint count, PtGA and physician global assessment of arthritis (PhyGA). PtGA and PhyGA both were assessed on 0-10 centimeter (cm) VAS scale (VAS: scores ranging from 0 cm [very well] to 10 cm [worst]), where higher scores indicated greater affliction due to disease activity).

Time Frame: Randomization (last non-missing measurement on or prior to the first dosing date in DB phase at Week 24), Weeks 36 and 48
HAQ-DI assesses the degree of difficulty a participant has experienced during the past week in 8 domains of daily living activities: dressing/grooming; arising; eating; walking; reach; grip; hygiene; and other activities..
