  19. Change From Baseline in Severity of Peripheral Arthritis by Tender (TJC) and Swollen Joint Count (SJC) Scores of 44 Joints

    The number of tender and painful joints was determined by examination of 46 joints (23 joints on each side of the participants body). The 46 joints are assessed and classified as tender or not tender. Sum of all joints checked to be tender/painful divided by number of evaluable joints which is multiplied by 46 to obtain TJC score. The scores ranges from 0 (no tender/painful joints) to 46 (all joints tender/painful). Swollen joint count SJC was determined by examination of 44 joints (22 joints on each side of the participants body). The joints are classified as swollen or not swollen. Sum of all joints checked to be swollen divided by number of evaluable joints which is multiplied by 44 to obtain SJC score. Score ranges from 0 (not swollen) to 44 (all joints swollen).

  21. Change From Baseline in the Fatigue Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) Score

    The Fatigue Severity NRS is a participant-administered, single-item, 11-point horizontal scale anchored at 0 and 10, with 0 representing "no fatigue" and 10 representing "as bad as you can imagine". Participants rate their fatigue (feeling tired or worn out) by circling the one number that describes their worst level of fatigue during the previous 24 hours. LS Mean was derived from MMRM with treatment, geographic region, screening MRI/CRP status, baseline value, visit, baseline value-by-visit, and treatment-by-visit interaction as fixed factors.

  22. Change From Baseline in ASAS Health Index (ASAS HI)

    ASAS-HI is a disease-specific health-index instrument designed to assess the impact of interventions for SpA, including axSpA. The 17-item instrument has scores ranging from 0 (good health) to 17 (poor health). Each item consists of one question that the participant needs to respond to with either "I agree" (score of 1) or "I do not agree" (score of 0). A score of "1" is given where the item is affirmed, indicating adverse health. All item scores are summed to give a total score or index. LS Mean was derived MMRM with treatment, geographic region, screening MRI/CRP status, baseline value, visit, baseline value-by-visit, and treatment-by-visit interaction as fixed factors.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 52

  23. Change From Baseline in the Jenkins Sleep Evaluation Questionnaire (JSEQ)

    Jenkins Sleep Evaluation Questionnaire (JSEQ) is a 4 item scale designed to estimate sleep problems in clinical research. The JSEQ assesses the frequency of sleep disturbance in 4 categories: 1) trouble falling asleep, 2) waking up several times during the night, 3) having trouble staying asleep (including waking up far too early), and 4) waking up after the usual amount of sleep feeling tired and worn out. Patients report the numbers of days they experience each of these problems in the past month on a 6 point Likert Scale ranging from 0 = "no days" to 5 = "22-30 days. The total JSEQ score ranges from 0 to 20, with higher scores indicating greater sleep disturbance. LS Mean was derived from using MMRM with treatment, geographic region, screening MRI/CRP status, baseline value, visit, baseline value-by-visit, and treatment-by-visit interaction as fixed factors.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 52

  24. Change From Baseline in the Work Productivity Activity Impairment Spondyloarthritis (WPAI-SpA) Scores

    The WPAI-SpA consists of 6 questions to determine employment status, hours missed from work because of SpA, hours missed from work for other reasons, hours actually worked, the degree to which SpA affected work productivity while at work, and the degree to which SpA affected activities outside of work. The WPAI-SpA has been validated in the rad-axSpA patient population. Four scores are derived: percentage of absenteeism, percentage of presenteeism (reduced productivity while at work), an overall work impairment score that combines absenteeism and presenteeism, and percentage of impairment in activities performed outside of work. The computed percentage range for each sub-scale was from 0-100, with higher scores indicating greater impairment and less productivity. LS Mean was derived from ANCOVA with treatment, geographic region, screening MRI/CRP status and baseline value.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 52

  25. Change From Baseline in ASAS-Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug (NSAID) Score

    ASAS-NSAID score is used to present the NSAID intake by considering the type of NSAID, the total dose, \& the number of days taking NSAID during a period of interest (PI). For NSAID equivalent scoring system, range is from 0 to 100, the higher the score, the greater the NSAID intake. ASAS-NSAID score= (equivalent NSAID score) x (days of intake during PI) x (days per week)/(PI in days).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Ixekizumab in people with Axial Spondyloarthritis, run by Eli Lilly and Company at 109 sites in 16 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 8 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Mar 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 109 sites in United States, Japan, Argentina, South Korea, Mexico and 11 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 13 Mar 2020). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Percentage of Participants Achieving an Assessment of Spondyloarthritis International Society 40 (ASAS40) Response (time frame: Week 16). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02757352, which also lists 10 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 13 Mar 2020.
