About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Active-Controlled, Double-Blind, Phase 3 Study to Compare Efficacy and Safety of CT-P17 With Humira When Co-administered With Methotrexate in Patients With Moderate to Severe Active Rheumatoid Arthritis

This is a Phase III Study to Compare Efficacy and Safety of CT-P17 with Humira in Patients With Active Rheumatoid Arthritis

Read the detailed description

CT-P17, containing the active ingredient adalimumab, is a recombinant humanized monoclonal antibody that is being developed as a similar biological medicinal product to Humira. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate similar efficacy and safety of CT-P17 and Humira in patients with moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis when co-administered with methotrexate.

Being tested
CT-P17 SC, Humira SC
Medical subject headings
Arthritis, Rheumatoid

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. American College of Rheumatology(ACR)20 Response Rate at Week 24.

    ACR20 is defined as both improvement of 20% in the number of tender and number of swollen joints, and a 20% improvement in the three of the following five criteria: 1) patient global assessment of disease activity, 2) physician global assessment of disease activity, 3) functional ability measure using Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ), 4) visual analog pain scale, and 5) erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) or C-reactive protein (CRP)

    Measured: Week 24

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. ACR50 and ACR70 Response Rate at Week 24

    ACR50 and ACR70 are the same instruments with improvement levels defined as 50% and 70% respectively versus 20% for ACR20.

    Measured: Week 24

  2. ACR20, ACR50, and ACR70 Response Rate up to Week 52

    ACR20 is defined as both improvement of 20% in the number of tender and number of swollen joints, and a 20% improvement in the three of the following five criteria: 1) patient global assessment of disease activity, 2) physician global assessment of disease activity, 3) functional ability measure using Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ), 4) visual analog pain scale, and 5) erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) or C-reactive protein (CRP). ACR50 and ACR70 are the same instruments with improvement levels defined as 50% and 70% respectively versus 20% for ACR20.

    Measured: Up to Week 52

  3. Mean Change From Baseline in Disease Activity Measured by DAS28 (CRP)

    The Disease activity score (DAS28) (c-reactive protein [CRP]) score was derived using the following formulae:

    DAS28 (CRP) = 0.56*√(TJC28) + 0.28*√(SJC28) + 0.014*(GH) + 0.36*ln(CRP+1) + 0.96

    Where:

    TJC28 = 28 joint count for tenderness (0-28) SJC28 = 28 joint count for swelling (0-28) Ln (CRP) = natural logarithm of CRP (mg/L : 0.2-236.3 as observed in the study) GH = General Health component of the DAS (patient's global assessment of disease activity) (mm: 0-100).

    DAS28 (CRP) values range from 1.03 to 8.77 while higher values mean a higher disease activity.

    Measured: Week 24

  4. Mean Change From Baseline in Disease Activity Measured by DAS28 (CRP)

    The Disease activity score (DAS28) (c-reactive protein [CRP]) score was derived using the following formulae:

    DAS28 (CRP) = 0.56*√(TJC28) + 0.28*√(SJC28) + 0.014*(GH) + 0.36*ln(CRP+1) + 0.96

    Where:

    TJC28 = 28 joint count for tenderness (0-28) SJC28 = 28 joint count for swelling (0-28) Ln (CRP) = natural logarithm of CRP (mg/L : 0.2-236.3 as observed in the study) GH = General Health component of the DAS (patient's global assessment of disease activity) (mm: 0-100).

    DAS28 (CRP) values range from 1.03 to 8.77 while higher values mean a higher disease activity.

    Measured: Up to Week 52

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing CT-P17 SC and Humira SC in people with Rheumatoid Arthritis, run by Celltrion at 1 site in Bulgaria.

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 2 inclusion and 2 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 17 Nov 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Bulgaria. 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. 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 17 Nov 2021). 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?

American College of Rheumatology(ACR)20 Response Rate at Week 24. (time frame: Week 24). 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 NCT03789292, which also lists 2 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 17 Nov 2021.
