Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The objective of this study was to verify the superiority of ASP015K alone or in combination with disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) over placebo in terms of efficacy in participants with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who had an inadequate response to DMARDs

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 3

Detailed Description

This was a multi-center, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, parallel-group, confirmatory study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ASP015K alone or in combination with DMARDs in participants with RA who had an inadequate response to DMARDs.

Etanercept was also administered as the reference drug in an open-label manner. The study drug was orally administered once daily (QD) after breakfast for 52 weeks. Etanercept was administered subcutaneously QD for 52 weeks. At Week 12, participants in the placebo group were switched to ASP015K.

The dose of ASP015K to be started at Week 12 for the placebo group was determined randomly at baseline in advance and switched in a blinded manner.

Participants in ASP015K group or placebo groups who had completed the study were eligible for participation in an open-label extension study (015K-CL-RAJ2).

    67. Number of Participants With Adverse Events During the First 12 Weeks [Week 0 to Week 12]

      Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were defined as any AE that started or worsened in severity after initial dose of study drug or reference drug through week 52 or withdrawal. TEAEs were summarized using MedDRA (Version 11.1) by System Organ Class (SOC) and Preferred Term (PT). Participants reporting more than 1 AE for a given MedDRA PT were counted only once for that term. Participants reporting more than 1 AE within a SOC were counted only once for the SOC total. Based on National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE) grade: grade 3 = severe or medically significant, grade 4 = life threatening, grade 5 = death related to AE.

    Participant Flow

    Recruitment Details Participants with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who had an inadequate response to disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) were enrolled in 142 sites in Japan, 11 sites in Korea and 12 sites in Taiwan.
    Pre-assignment Detail Participants were randomized in a 1:1:1:2 ratio to peficitinib 100 mg, 150 mg, placebo or etanercept groups at baseline. At week 12, participants in the placebo group were switched to receive either peficitinib at a dose of 100 mg or 150 mg. The dose of peficitinib administered to the placebo group from week 12 was determined in advance randomly.
    Arm/Group Title Peficitinib 100 mg Peficitinib 150 mg Placebo / Peficitinib 100 mg Placebo / Peficitinib 150 mg Etanercept
    Arm/Group Description Participants were assigned to receive peficitinib 100 mg/day for 52 weeks. Participants were assigned to receive peficitinib 150 mg/day for 52 weeks. Participants were assigned to receive placebo to peficitinib once a day until week 12 and peficitinib 100 mg/day from week 12 to week 52. Participants were assigned to receive placebo to peficitinib once a day until week 12 and peficitinib 150 mg/day from week 12 to week 52. Participants were administered 50 mg of subcutaneous etanercept once weekly for 52 weeks.

    10. Secondary Outcome
    Title Change From Baseline in DAS28-ESR Through Week 52
    Description DAS28-ESR response consisted of following parameters: TJC (28 joints), SJC (28 joints), ESR, SGA , and calculated according to below description. DAS28 = 0.56√(TJC) + 0.28√(SJC) + 0.70 ln ESR + 0.014 × SGA. DAS28-ESR scores range from 0 to approximately 10. Higher DAS28 score indicated greater disease activity.

    Description DAS28-CRP response consisted of following parameters: TJC (28 joints), SJC (28 joints), CRP, SGA, and calculated according to below description. DAS28 = 0.56√(TJC) + 0.28√(SJC) + 0.36 ln (CRP + 1) + 0.014 × SGA + 0.96. DAS28-CRP scores range from 0.96 to approximately 10.

    Title Change From Baseline in CDAI Score Through Week 52
    Description CDAI score consisted of following parameters: TJC (28 joints), SJC (28 joints), SGA, PGA, and calculated according to below description. CDAI = TJC + SJC + SGA + PGA. The CDAI score ranges from 0 to approximately 76. Higher CDAI indicates greater disease activity.

    Title Change From Baseline in Short Form Health Survey - 36 Questions, Version 2 (SF-36v2) Physical Component Summary Score at Week 12
    Description The SF-36v2 was scored for the 8 subscales (each range: 0-100 scale): 1. physical functioning, 2. role physical, 3. bodily pain, 4. general health, 5. vitality, 6. social functioning, 7. role-emotional, and 8. mental health. Physical Component Summary Score, Mental Component Summary Score and Roll/Social Component Summary Score were calculated based on the 2007 General Japanese Population Means and Standard Deviations and coefficient. Component summary measures had means of 50 in 2007 General Japanese Population and deviation was expressed by the scale of 10. Higher score indicated better health state.

    Title Change From Baseline in SF-36v2 Physical Component Summary Score Through Week 52
    Description The SF-36v2 was scored for the 8 subscales (each range: 0-100 scale): 1. physical functioning, 2. role physical, 3. bodily pain, 4. general health, 5. vitality, 6. social functioning, 7. role-emotional, and 8. mental health. Physical Component Summary Score, Mental Component Summary Score and Roll/Social Component Summary Score were calculated based on the 2007 General Japanese Population Means and Standard Deviations and coefficient. Component summary measures had means of 50 in 2007 General Japanese Population and deviation was expressed by the scale of 10. Higher score indicated better health state.

    Title Number of Participants With Adverse Events During the First 12 Weeks
    Description Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were defined as any AE that started or worsened in severity after initial dose of study drug or reference drug through week 52 or withdrawal. TEAEs were summarized using MedDRA (Version 11.1) by System Organ Class (SOC) and Preferred Term (PT). Participants reporting more than 1 AE for a given MedDRA PT were counted only once for that term. Participants reporting more than 1 AE within a SOC were counted only once for the SOC total. Based on National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE) grade: grade 3 = severe or medically significant, grade 4 = life threatening, grade 5 = death related to AE.
