What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Percentage of Participants with Assessment in Ankylosing Spondylitis (ASAS) 20 response at Week 12.
ASAS20 is defined as a >= 20% improvement and an absolute improvement of >= 1 units (on a scale of 0 to 10) from Baseline in at least 3 of the 4 domains (patient's global assessment, back pain, function and inflammation) with no deterioration in the remaining domain (where deterioration is defined as a worsening of >= 20% and a net worsening of >= 1 unit [on a scale of 0 to 10])
Measured: Week 12
Secondary outcomes (8)
Percentage of Participants with Assessment in Ankylosing Spondylitis (ASAS) 20 response at Week 24.
ASAS20 is defined as a >= 20% improvement and an absolute improvement of >= 1 units (on a scale of 0 to 10) from Baseline in at least 3 of the 4 domains (patient's global assessment, back pain, function and inflammation) with no deterioration in the remaining domain (where deterioration is defined as a worsening of >= 20% and a net worsening of >= 1 unit [on a scale of 0 to 10]) at Week 24.
Measured: Week 24
Percentage of Participants with Assessment in Ankylosing Spondylitis (ASAS) 40 response at Week 12 and Week 24.
ASAS40 is defined as a >= 40% improvement and an absolute improvement of ≥ 2 units (on a scale of 0 to 10) from Baseline in at least 3 of the 4 domains (patient's global assessment, back pain, function and inflammation) with no worsening at all in the remaining domain.
Measured: Week 12 and Week 24
Percentage of Participants with Assessment in Ankylosing Spondylitis (ASAS) 5/6 response at Week 12 and Week 24.
ASAS5/6 is defined as an improvement of at least 20 % in at least five of these six domains (patient global, pain, function, inflammation, CRP, and spinal mobility).
Measured: Week 12 and Week 24
Change from baseline in Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI)
BASDAI is a commonly used measure to define disease activity levels in axSpA patients. It consists of 6 questions on a 0 through 10 numeric rating scale (NRS) (0 being no problem and 10 being the worst problem) pertaining to the 5 major symptoms of AS: Fatigue, Spinal pain, Joint pain/swelling, Areas of localized tenderness, Morning stiffness duration, and Morning stiffness severity.
Measured: Week 12 and Week 24
Change from baseline in Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index (BASFI) at Week 12 and Week 24.
The BASFI is a validated patient reported outcome (PRO) instrument for use in the AS patient population. It consists of 10 items measured on a 0 to 10 NRS, which assesses the ability to perform activities known to be problematic to AS patients such as dressing, bending, reaching, turning, and climbing steps. The total scores range from 0 to 10.
Measured: Week 12 and Week 24
Change from baseline in Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Metrology Index (BASMI) at Week 12 and Week 24.
The BASMI will be conducted at the visits specified to evaluate spinal mobility in a participan.
Measured: Week 12 and Week 24
Change from baseline in Short-Form-36-Health Survey (SF-36) at Week 12 and Week 24.
SF-36 is a standardized survey evaluating 8 aspects of functional health and wellbeing: physical and social functioning, physical and emotional role limitations, bodily pain, general health, vitality, mental health. The score for a section is an average of the individual question scores, which are scaled 0-100 (0=no functioning, 100=highest level of functioning). Missing data at Week 12 were imputed by LOCF if data at an early visit (discontinuation visit) were available.
Measured: Week 12 and Week 24
Change from baseline in Ankylosing Spondylitis Quality of Life (ASQoL) at Week 12 and Week 24.
The ASQoL is an 18-item axSpA-specific Quality of Life (QoL) PRO measure validated in the AS patient population. Concepts measured include activities of daily life, emotional functioning, pain, fatigue, and sleep problems. Each item on ASQoL is given a score of "1" or "0," where a score of "1" is given when an item is affirmed indicating adverse QoL. Total scores can range from 0 (good QoL) to 18 (poor QoL).
Measured: Week 12 and Week 24

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2/3 study testing SHR0302 in people with Ankylosing Spondylitis, run by Jiangsu HengRui Medicine Co., Ltd. at 1 site in China.
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 6 inclusion and 4 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 27 Jul 2023. 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 China. 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 combined phase mean?
Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
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?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
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 with Assessment in Ankylosing Spondylitis (ASAS) 20 response at Week 12. (time frame: Week 12). 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 NCT04481139, which also lists 1 linked publication.
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 27 Jul 2023.
