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

NCT02629159

Active Not RecruitingPhase 3

Sponsor: AbbVie

Conditions: Rheumatoid Arthritis

Interventions: Placebo for Adalimumab, Adalimumab, Placebo for Upadacitinib, Upadacitinib

Countries: United States, Argentina, Australia, Austria, Belarus, Belgium, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Brazil

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.

* Subjects must have been on oral or parenteral methotrexate (MTX) therapy greater than or equal to 3 months and on a stable prescription of greater than or equal to 15 to 25 mg/week (or greater than or equal to 10 mg/week in subjects intolerant of MTX at doses greater than or equal to 12.5 mg/week) for at least 4 weeks prior to the first dose of study drug. In addition all subjects should take a dietary supplement of folic acid or folinic acid throughout the study participation.
* Meets the following minimum disease activity criteria: greater than or equal to 6 swollen joints (based on 66 joint counts) and greater than or equal to 6 tender joints (based on 68 joint counts) at Screening and Baseline Visits.
* At least one of the following at Screening: greater than or equal to 3 bone erosions on x-ray OR greater than or equal to 1 bone erosion and a positive rheumatoid factor OR greater than or equal to 1 bone erosion and a positive anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide autoantibodies.
* Subjects with prior exposure to only one biological disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (bDMARD) (except adalimumab) may be enrolled (up to 20% of total study population) if they have documented evidence of intolerance to the bDMARD or limited exposure (less than 3 months), but required washout periods need to be satisfied.
* Except for MTX, subject must have discontinued all conventional synthetic disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (csDMARDs).

Exclusion Criteria:

* Prior exposure to any Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor (including but not limited to tofacitinib, baricitinib, and filgotinib).
* Subjects who have been exposed to adalimumab or who are considered inadequate responders to bDMARD therapy as determined by the Investigator.
* History of inflammatory joint disease other than RA. History of secondary Sjogren's Syndrome is permitted.
