Primary Sjögren's Syndrome
Brief summary
This is a Phase 2, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 12-week proof-of-concept study to assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of UCB5857 in subjects with primary Sjögren's Syndrome (pSS). The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy on overall disease activity and safety of UCB5857 added to current treatment relative to placebo in subjects with pSS.
