A Phase IIb Study for ALX-0061 Monotherapy in Subjects With Rheumatoid Arthritis

NCT02287922

CompletedPhase 2

Sponsor: Ablynx, a Sanofi company

Conditions: Rheumatoid Arthritis

Interventions: ALX-0061, Placebo, Tocilizumab

Countries: United States, Belgium, Bulgaria, Czechia, Georgia, Germany, Hungary, Mexico

The primary objective of this study is: \- To assess the efficacy and safety of dose regimens of ALX-0061 monotherapy administered subcutaneously (s.c.) to subjects with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The secondary objectives of this study are: * To assess the effects of ALX-0061 on quality of life, the pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and immunogenicity of ALX-0061 and to explore potential dose regimens for ALX-0061 monotherapy, based on safety and efficacy, for further clinical development. * To obtain parallel descriptive information concerning the efficacy and safety of tocilizumab (TCZ) s.c. in the same clinical trial RA population.
