Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Multicenter, Phase IIb Dose Finding Study of GLPG0634 Administered for 24 Weeks in Combination With Methotrexate to Subjects With Moderately to Severely Active Rheumatoid Arthritis Who Have an Inadequate Response to Methotrexate Alone
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating GLPG0634 and Placebo for Rheumatoid Arthritis. Completed, enrolled 599 participants across 142 sites in 22 countries.
Detailed Summary
Participants suffering from active rheumatoid arthritis despite continued treatment with methotrexate were evaluated for improvement of disease activity (efficacy) when taking GLPG0634 (3 different doses - 50 milligram \[mg\], 100 mg and 200 mg daily -, each evaluated as once daily \[QD\] and twice daily \[BID\] regimen) or matching placebo for 24 weeks. •During the course of the study, patients were also examined for any side effects that could occur (safety and tolerability), and the amount of GLPG0634 present in the blood (Pharmacokinetics) as well as the effects of GLPG0634 on disease- and mechanism of action-related parameters in the blood (Pharmacodynamics) were determined. Also, the effects of different doses and dose regiments of GLPG0634 administration on participants' disability, fatigue, and quality of life were evaluated.
