Study Stopped
Ofatumumab IV trials in RA were prematurely terminated because GSK refocused clinical development of autoimmune indications on the subcutaneous delivery.
Investigating Clinical Efficacy of Ofatumumab in Adult Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) Patients Who Had an Inadequate Response to MTX Therapy

Brief Summary
This is a phase III, double-blind, randomized, multicenter, and parallel group trial with a duration of 24 weeks, followed by a 120 week Open-label Period. the primary purpose of the study is to demonstrate the efficacy of ofatumumab in reducing clinical signs and symptoms in adult RA patients after a single course of ofatumumab.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Number of Participants With a 20% Improvement From Baseline in Their American College of Rheumatology (ACR) Score (ACR20) at Week 24
The ACR score was based on improvement from baseline in tender (TJC) and swollen joint counts (SJC). A participant had achieved ACR20 if he experienced \>=20% improvement from baseline in TJC and SJC and a \>=20% improvement from baseline in 3 out of 5 of the following assessments: participant pain assessment on a 100 millimeter (mm) visual analog scale (VAS), participant global assessment on a 100 mm VAS scale, physician global assessment on a 100 mm VAS scale, participant self-assessed disability, and C-reactive protein.
