A Phase 3, Randomized, Double-Blind Study Comparing Upadacitinib (ABT-494) Monotherapy to Methotrexate (MTX) in Adults With Moderately to Severely Active Rheumatoid Arthritis With Inadequate Response to MTX
Abstract
The study objective of Period 1 of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy (signs and symptoms) of upadacitinib 30 mg once daily (QD) alone and upadacitinib 15 mg QD alone versus continuing MTX alone adults with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) with an inadequate response to MTX.
The study objective of Period 2 is to evaluate the long term safety, tolerability, and efficacy of upadacitinib 30 mg QD and 15 mg QD in adults with RA who had completed Period 1.
Conditions: Rheumatoid Arthritis.
Primary outcome: Percentage of Participants With an American College of Rheumatology 20% (ACR20) Response at Week 14; Percentage of Participants Achieving Low Disease Activity (LDA) Based on DAS28(CRP) at Week 14.
Enrollment: 648 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a randomized trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 2 of 5 (High · randomized trial). Randomized trials of a reasonable size are the strongest single-study design. Reported size: 648 participants or records.
