Active Conventional Therapy Compared to Three Different Biologic Treatments in Early Rheumatoid Arthritis With Subsequent Dose Reduction

7 de julho de 2022 atualizado por: Ronald van Vollenhoven, prof., Karolinska Institutet

A Multicenter, Randomized, Open-label, Blinded-assessor, Phase 4 Study in Patients With Early Rheumatoid Arthritis to Compare Active Conventional Therapy Versus Three Biologic Treatments, and Two De-escalation Strategies in Patients Who Respond to Treatment

This is an international (Sweden, Finland, Norway, Denmark, Iceland and the Netherlands) trial designed to compare the safety and efficacy of active conventional therapy (ACT) and three biologic treatments in subjects with early rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The global aim of this study is to assess and compare

  1. the proportion of subjects who achieve remission with ACT versus three different biologic therapies (Certolizumab-pegol, Abatacept or Tocilizumab)
  2. two alternative de-escalation strategies in patients who respond to first-line therapy.

Descrição

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Subject is ≥18 years of age.
  2. Subject has a diagnosis of RA as defined by the newly established ACR/EULAR criteria, 2010. (Patients should also be classified according to the 1987-revised ACR-classification criteria, without this being an inclusion criteria).
  3. <24 months from arthritis symptom debut (symptom duration will be registered).
  4. Subject must have DAS28 (CRP) > 3.2.
  5. ≥ 2 swollen joints AND ≥ 2 tender joints.
  6. Subject must fulfill one of the following three criteria: RF positive OR ACPA positive OR CRP >10 mg/L.
  7. Female subject is either not of childbearing potential (postmenopausal, surgically sterile etc.), or is of childbearing potential and practicing one of the following methods of birth control throughout the study and for 150 days after study completion:

    • Intrauterine device (IUD)
    • Contraceptives (oral, parenteral, patch) for three months prior to study drug administration)
    • A vasectomized partner
  8. Female subjects of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test at the Screening visit.
  9. Subject is judged to be in good general health as determined by the principal investigator based upon the results of medical history, laboratory profile, physical examination, chest X-ray (CXR), and 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) performed at Screening.
  10. Subjects must be able and willing to provide written informed consent and comply with the requirements of this study protocol.
  11. Subjects must be able and willing to self-administer s.c. injections or have a qualified person available to administer s.c. injections.

  3. Subjects has had a dose of prednisone (or equivalent) >7.5 mg/day or has had a dose change within the preceding 4 weeks.

    2. Positive serum human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG).
