NCT02831855

Brief Summary

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.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • 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

    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 Outcomes (23)

  • Double Blind Phase: Change From Randomization in DAS28-4 ESR at Week 36

    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

    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

    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 Simplified Disease Activity Index (SDAI) at Weeks 36 and 48

    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: Percentage of Participants With Low Disease Activity (LDA) Assessed by DAS28-4 (ESR) Less Than or Equal to (<=) 3.2 at Weeks 36 and 48

    Weeks 36 and 48

  • +18 more secondary outcomes

Other Outcomes (2)

  • Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious AEs

    For OL Phase: Baseline up to Week 24; For DB Phase: Week 24 up to Week 52 (up to 28 days after last dose)

  • Number of Participants With Abnormal Laboratory Parameters

    For OL Phase: Baseline up to Week 24; For DB Phase: Week 24 up to Week 48

Study Arms (2)

CP-690,550 and methotrexate

EXPERIMENTAL

Open-label tofacitinib tablet and blinded methotrexate capsule

Drug: CP-690,550Drug: Methotrexate

CP-690,550 and placebo

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

open-label tofacitinib tablet and blinded matching placebo for methotrexate capsule

Drug: Placebo

Interventions

During the open-label run-in phase (Day 1 to Week 24), all subjects will receive one tablet open-label tofacitinib MR 11mg orally QD and open-label methotrexate capsule(s) orally every week at prior stabilized dose. During the double-blind phase, subjects who are randomized to the treatment arm will receive the same dosage of tofacitinib and methotrexate as describe above.

Also known as: tofacitinib
CP-690,550 and methotrexate

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • \- Must be 18 years of age or older.

  • Have ≥4 tender/painful joints on motion and ≥4 swollen joints (28 joint counts) at both Screening Visit and Baseline Visit (Visit 1).
  • Have moderate to severe disease activity as defined by CDAI\>10 and DAS28-4(ESR) ≥3.2 at Baseline Visit.
  • Have taken an oral MTX treatment regimen (15-25mg/week) continuously for at least 4 months prior to the screening visit and has taken a stable weekly dose of oral MTX with supplemental folic acid or folinic acid for at least 4 weeks prior to the baseline visit (conversion from parenteral MTX to oral MTX will require stabilization of the treatment regimen for at least 1 month).
  • Subjects must screen negative for active tuberculosis or inadequately treated tuberculosis infection (active or latent).

You may not qualify if:

  • Pregnant female subjects; breastfeeding female subjects; male subjects with partners currently pregnant; male subjects able to father children and female subjects of childbearing potential who are unwilling or unable to use 2 highly effective methods of contraception as outlined in this protocol for the duration of the study and for at least 3 months after the last dose of investigational product.
  • Subjects with infection or infection history; subjects with any current malignancy or a history of malignancy (except adequately treated or excised non-metastatic basal cell or squamous cell cancer of the skin or cervical carcinoma in situ); subjects with history of, or current evidence for, severe gastrointestinal narrowing (pathologic or iatrogenic); and subjects with history of documented diverticulitis.
  • Subjects with a history of insufficient response to ≥2 biologics, regardless of the class.
