A Study to Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety, and Tolerability of IMVT-1402 in Adult Participants With Active, Difficult to Treat Rheumatoid Arthritis

April 21, 2026 updated by: Immunovant Sciences GmbH

A Phase 2b, Multicenter, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Randomized Withdrawal Study to Assess the Efficacy, Safety, and Tolerability of IMVT-1402 in Adult Participants With Active, Difficult to Treat, ACPA-Positive Rheumatoid Arthritis

This Phase 2b, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized withdrawal study is designed to assess the efficacy and safety of IMVT-1402 in adult participants with active, difficult-to-treat, anti-citrullinated protein autoantibody (ACPA) positive rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

Study Overview

Status

Active, not recruiting

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

The primary objective is to evaluate the effects of IMVT-1402 compared to placebo, as measured by the American College of Rheumatology 20% (ACR20) response at Week 28.

The total duration of study participation is expected to be up to 86 weeks for an individual participant with 16 weeks of open-label treatment, 12 weeks of blinded randomized treatment, and 48 weeks of optional long-term extension treatment.
