Brief summary

This study is a single centre, open label, randomized controlled study to compare the efficacy and safety between steroids plus tofacitinib and steroids alone in active IgG4-related diseases patients. It is expected to enroll a total of 58 IgG4 RD patients. The sample size of two groups is 1:1. The primary end points of this study is to compare the IgG4-RD response rate between two groups at 24 weeks.

Inclusion criteria

1. 18 ≤ Age ≤ 70 years old; 2. Complies with the 2019 ACR/EULAR IgG4 RD classification criteria 3. Patients with initial or recurrent active IgG4 RD (IgG4 RD RI ≥ 3 points). 4. Voluntary signing of informed consent: Patients must be given a written consent form when participating in the trial, and it is hoped that patients can comply with the requirements of the study follow-up plan and other protocols; 5. Female participants of childbearing age agreed to use effective contraceptive measures during the study period.

Exclusion criteria

1. Participants in other trials or those who have participated in clinical trials of other drugs within 2 months; 2. Individuals who have received live vaccine immunization within 2 weeks prior to enrollment, or who require live vaccine immunization during the trial period; 3. Merge other autoimmune diseases 4. Active infected individuals need to be excluded. Latent tuberculosis requires prevention with isoniazid 0.3g/d one month in advance; People with hepatitis B HBsAg+and HBV-DNA negative need to take anti hepatitis B virus drugs one month in advance. 5. Pregnant and lactating women, or women of childbearing age who have fertility requirements during the study period and within 6 months after the last dose of medication; 6.

Other researchers believe that it is not suitable for enrollment.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
IgG4-RD remission rate24 weekEvaluate treatment response by assessing changes in the IgG4 RD RI score and categorize it into three types: complete response (CR), partial response (PR), and no effect (NE, including no improvement or deterioration). IgG4 RD RI score\<3 and a decrease of ≥ 2 is considered CR; A decrease of ≥ 2 in IgG4 RD RI score but a maintenance of ≥ 3 is considered PR. If the patient's IgG4 RD RI score is initially 3 points, a decrease of 1 point after treatment is considered PR. Patients with no significant changes in tumor size and/or clinical presentation and a decrease in IgG4 RD RI score\<2 are considered NE.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
recurrence rate24 weekcompare the recurrence rates between two groups
serum IgG424 weekcompare the value of serum IgG4 between two groups
rate of adverse events24 weekCompare the incidence of treatment-related adverse events and treatment-related serious adverse events
