About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Parallel Group, International Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Ocrelizumab Compared to Placebo in Patients With Active Rheumatoid Arthritis Who Have an Inadequate Response to at Least One Anti-TNF-α Therapy

This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of ocrelizumab, compared with placebo, in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis who have an inadequate response to at least one anti-TNF-alpha therapy. Patients will be randomized to receive placebo, 200mg of intravenous ocrelizumab, or 500mg of i.v. ocrelizumab on days 1 and 15. A repeat course of i.v. treatment will be administered at weeks 24 and 26. All patients will receive stable doses of either concomitant methotrexate (7.5-25mg/week) or leflunomide (10-20mg po daily) and may receive additional DMARDs. The treatment period is planned for 48 weeks (until primary analysis) and then participants will enter the open label phase until the drug is commercialized. Target sample size is 1000.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Percentage of Participants With American College of Rheumatology 20 (ACR20) Responses

    ACR20 response: greater than or equal to (≥) 20% improvement in tender or swollen joint counts and 20% improvement in 3 of the following 5 criteria: 1) Physician's global assessment of disease activity, 2) participant assessment of disease activity, 3) Patient Assessment of Pain (visual analog scale [VAS]), 4) participant assessment of functional disability via a Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ), and 5) erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) at each visit.

    Measured: Weeks 24 and 48

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Percentage of Participants With a Major Clinical Response

    Major clinical response was defined as achieving an ACR70 response and maintaining this response for a consecutive period of at least 6 months.

    Measured: Week 48

  2. Percentage of Participants Achieving Disease Activity Score (DAS28) Remission

    The DAS28 score is a measure of the patient's disease activity calculated using the tender joint count (TJC) [28 joints], swollen joint count (SJC) [28 joints], patient's global assessment of disease activity [visual analog scale: 0=no disease activity to 100=maximum disease activity] and the erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) for a total possible score of 0 to approximately 10. Scores below 2.6 indicate best disease control and scores above 5.1 indicate worse disease control. DAS28 Remission is defined as a DAS28 score < 2.6.

    Measured: Weeks 24 and 48

  3. Change in DAS28 From Baseline

    The DAS28 score is a measure of the patient's disease activity calculated using the tender joint count (TJC) [28 joints], swollen joint count (SJC) [28 joints], patient's global assessment of disease activity [visual analog scale: 0=no disease activity to 100=maximum disease activity] and the erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) for a total possible score of 0 to approximately 10.

    Measured: Weeks 24 and 48

  4. Percentage of Participants With EULAR Response Rates of Good/ Moderate

    The EULAR response rate was based on the assessment of disease activity using the DAS28. The EULAR response criteria included not only change in disease activity but current disease activity. To be classified as responders, participants had to have a significant change in DAS28 and a low current disease activity. There were 4 categories of EULAR response rates: good, moderate, good/moderate, and none.

    Measured: Weeks 24 and 48

  5. Percentage of Participants Achieving an ACR50 Response

    ACR50 response is defined as a ≥ 50% improvement (reduction) compared with baseline for both total joint count-68 joints (TJC68) and swollen joint count-66 joints (SJC66), as well as for three of the additional five ACR core set variables: physician's global assessment of disease activity (MDG), patient's global assessment of disease activity (PGA), patient's assessment of pain, Health Assessment Questionnaire with Disability Index (HAQ-DI), and C-Reactive Protein (CRP).

    Measured: Weeks 24 and 48

  6. Percentage of Participants Achieving an ACR70 Response

    ACR70 response is defined as a ≥ 70% improvement (reduction) compared with Baseline for both total joint count-68 joints (TJC68) and swollen joint count-66 joints (SJC66), as well as for three of the additional five ACR core set variables: physician's global assessment of disease activity (MDG), patient's global assessment of disease activity (PGA), patient's assessment of pain, HAQ-DI and CRP.

    Measured: Weeks 24 and 48

  7. Percentage of Participants With a Reduction in the HAQ-DI Score

    Health Assessment Questionnaire - Disability Index (HAQ-DI): The Stanford Health Assessment Questionnaire disability index is a patient reported questionnaire specific for RA. It consists of 20 questions referring to eight component. Reduction in the HAQ-DI score of 0.25 units from baseline to weeks 24 and 48 represented a minimal clinically relevant improvement.

    Measured: Weeks 24 and 48

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Leflunomide, Methotrexate and Ocrelizumab in people with Rheumatoid Arthritis, run by Genentech, Inc. at 266 sites in 25 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Aug 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 266 sites in United States, Canada, Germany, Japan, Spain and 20 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 12 Aug 2019). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Percentage of Participants With American College of Rheumatology 20 (ACR20) Responses (time frame: Weeks 24 and 48). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00476996, which also lists 2 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 Aug 2019.
