Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: •To assess the efficacy and safety of dose regimens of ALX-0061 administered s.c. in combination with MTX to subjects with active RA despite MTX therapy compared with placebo. ;Secondary Objective: •To assess the effects of ALX-0061 on quality of life, PK, PD, and immunogenicity of ALX 0061, and to define the optimal dose regimen for ALX 0061, based on safety and efficacy, for further clinical development.;Primary end point(s): Reduction of signs and symptoms of RA;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Week 12

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): - ACR20, ACR50, and ACR70 response over time. - Disease activity: Disease Activity Score using 28 joint counts (DAS28 using CRP and erythrocyte sedimentation rate [ESR]), Simplified Disease Activity Index (SDAI), Clinical Disease Activity Index (CDAI). - EULAR DAS28 response (good, moderate, or no response). - Remission using disease remission parameters: DAS28, SDAI, CDAI, Boolean. - Health Assessment Questionnaire-Disability Index (HAQ-DI). - Physical and mental component scores of Short Form Health Survey (SF-36). - Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Fatigue (FACIT-Fatigue). - Pharmacokinetics - Pharmacodynamics - Safety - Immunogenicity;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 24 weeks evaluation for secondary endopoints mentioned bove (first 7 bullet points) PK: 24 weeks PD, safety and immunogenicity: For the complete duration of the study
