Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Rheumatoid Arthritis related 1.Class IV RA according to ACR revised response criteria (Section 17.2) 2.Felty’s syndrome (RA, splenomegaly, and granulocytopenia) 3.History of prosthetic or native joint infection Other medical conditions 4.Planned surgical intervention during the duration of the study 5.Active infection or history of infections as follows: •any active infection for which systemic anti-infectives were used within 28 days prior to first dose of IP •a serious infection, defined as requiring hospitalization or intravenous (IV) anti infectives within 8 weeks prior to the first dose of investigational product •recurrent or chronic infections or other active infection that, in the opinion of the Investigator, might cause this study to be detrimental to the subject 6.Known history of human immunodeficiency virus 7.Hepatitis B surface antigen (HbsAg) or Hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibody positivity at screening 8.Uncontrolled, clinically significant systemic disease such as diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular disease including moderate to severe heart failure (New York Heart Association [NYHA] class III/IV), renal disease, liver disease or hypertension 9.Malignancy within 5 years EXCEPT treated and considered cured cutaneous squamous or basal cell carcinoma, in situ cervical cancer, OR in situ breast ductal carcinoma 10.History of neurologic symptoms suggestive of central nervous system demyelinating disease 11.Major chronic inflammatory disease or connective tissue disease other than RA, with the exception of secondary Sjögren’s syndrome 12.Concurrent medical condition that, in the opinion of the Investigator, could cause this study to be detrimental to the subject Laboratory abnormalities 13.Laboratory abnormalities at screening, including any of the following: •Hemoglobin < 9 g/dL •Platelet count < 100,000/mm3 •White blood cell count < 3,000 cells/mm3 •Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and/or alanine aminotransferase (ALT) = 2.0 x the upper limit of normal •Creatinine clearance < 50 mL/min (Cockroft-Gault formula) •Any other laboratory abnormality, which, in the opinion of the Investigator, will prevent the subject from completing the study or will interfere with the interpretation of the study results

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: The primary objective for this study is to assess the efficacy of ABP 501 compared with adalimumab.;Secondary Objective: The secondary objectives are to assess the safety and immunogenicity of ABP 501 compared with adalimumab.;Primary end point(s): The primary efficacy endpoint is risk ratio (RR) of ACR20 (20% improvement in ACR core set measurements);Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: The primary efficacy endpoint is risk ratio (RR) of ACR20 (20% improvement in ACR core set measurements) at week 24. To achieve ACR20 response, at least 20% improvement compared to baseline is required for both swollen and tender joint counts), as well as for 3 out of the following 5 additional parameters: •Subject's Global Health Assessment (on a 0 to 10 horizontal scale) •Investigator's Global Health Assessment (on a 0 to 10 horizontal scale) •Subject's assessment of pain (on a 100-mm visual analogue scale (VAS); •Health Assessment Questionnaire – Disability Index •CRP

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): Secondary efficacy endpoints include change from baseline of DAS28-CRP, RR of ACR20 responses, and RR of ACR50 (50% improvement in ACR core set measurements) and ACR70 (70% improvement in ACR core set measurements) ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Secondary efficacy endpoints include change from baseline of DAS28-CRP at each time point (weeks 2, 4, 8, 12, 18, and 24), RR of ACR20 responses at weeks 2 and 8, and RR of ACR50 and ACR70 responses at week 24.
