A Study Comparing Upadacitinib (ABT-494) to Placebo and to Adalimumab in Adults With Rheumatoid Arthritis Who Are on a Stable Dose of Methotrexate and Who Have an Inadequate Response to Methotrexate
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
Placebo for Adalimumab: Administered by subcutaneous injection once every other week
Adalimumab: Administered by subcutaneous injection once every other week
Placebo for Upadacitinib: Tablets taken orally once a day
Upadacitinib: Tablets taken orally once a day
Study summary
The purpose of this study was to assess efficacy, including inhibition of radiographic progression, and safety with upadacitinib versus placebo and versus an active comparator, adalimumab, in adults with with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who are on a stable background of methotrexate (MTX and who have an inadequate response to MTX.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Percentage of Participants With an American College of Rheumatology 20% (ACR20) Response at Week 12 — Baseline and Week 12
The primary endpoint for United States (US)/Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulatory purposes was ACR 20% response (ACR20) at Week 12. Participants who met the following 3 conditions for improvement from baseline were classified as meeting the ACR20 response criteria: 1. ≥ 20% improvement in 68-tender joint count; 2. ≥ 20% improvement in 66-swollen joint count; and 3. ≥ 20% improvement in at least 3 of the 5 following parameters: * Physician global assessment of disease activity * Patient global assessment of disease activity * Patient assessment of pain * Health Assessment Questionnaire - Disability Index (HAQ-DI) * High-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP). - Percentage of Participants Achieving Clinical Remission (CR) Based on DAS28(CRP) at Week 12 — Week 12
The primary endpoint for European Union (EU)/European Medicines Agency (EMA) regulatory purposes was clinical remission, based on a Disease Activity Score 28 (DAS28)-CRP score of \< 2.6 at Week 12. The DAS28 is a composite index used to assess rheumatoid arthritis disease activity, calculated based on the tender joint count (out of 28 evaluated joints), swollen joint count (out of 28 evaluated joints), Patient's Global Assessment of Disease Activity (0-100 mm), and hsCRP (in mg/L). Scores on the DAS28 range from 0 to approximately 10, where higher scores indicate more disease activity. A DAS28 score less than 2.6 indicates clinical remission.
