What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Change From Baseline (BL) in Disease Activity Score (DAS)28-C Reactive Protein (CRP) at Week 12
DAS28 is a measure based on assessment of 28 joints for tenderness and swelling (tender and swollen joint counts). Disease Activity Score 28-C reactive protein (DAS28-CRP) is derived using differential weighting given to 4 components: tender joint count (range: 0-28), swollen joint count (range: 0-28), patient global assessment (recorded on a visual analog scale [VAS] scale of 0-100 mm), and CRP (milligram per liter). DAS28-CRP score ranges from 0 to 9.4. The lower the DAS28-CRP score is, the better the participant has response (remission = score<2.6, low disease activity = score≤3.2). A negative value in change from BL indicates an improvement. Mixed Model Repeated Measures was used for statistical analysis, which used the change from BL of DAS28-CRP as an outcome and treatment, scheduled study visit, BL value of DAS28-CRP, treatment by visit interaction and BL by visit interaction as fixed effects. The model used the unstructured covariance matrix.
Measured: BL (defined as the last non-missing measurement collected prior to the first administration of study drug on Day 1), Week 12
Secondary outcomes (9)
DAS28-CRP Remission (<2.6) Rates at Week 24
DAS28-CRP is derived using differential weighting given to 4 components: tender joint count, swollen joint count, patient global assessment, and CRP. Remission is defined as DAS28-CRP score <2.6. Remission rate = the number of responders (who had remission) / (number of responders + non-responders + non-responder assigned by non-responder imputation [NRI] after removal of missingness due to COVID-19 and missing components at a given visit)
Measured: Week 24
Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Treatment Emergent Serious Adverse Events (TESAEs), and Withdrawals Due to TEAEs
An adverse event (AE) was any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical study subject, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention. A serious AE (SAE) was defined as any untoward medical occurrence that, at any dose: resulted in death; was life-threatening; required inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization; resulted in persistent disability/incapacity; was a congenital anomaly/birth defect; or other serious situations such as important medical events. TEAEs were events between first dose of study drug and up to follow-up visit that were absent before treatment or that worsened after treatment. AEs presented below were TEAEs. The investigator was required to use clinical judgment to assess the potential relationship between investigational product and each AE, to define an treatment-related AE.
Measured: From first dose of study intervention (Day 1) to Week 28
Number of Participants With Clinical Laboratory Abnormalities (Hematology and Chemistry, Without Regard to Baseline Abnormality)
Clinical laboratory abnormality was determined at the investigator's discretion.
Measured: From BL to Week 28
Number of Participants With Change From Baseline in Vital Signs Data Meeting the Pre-defined Categorical Summarization Criteria
Abnormality in change from BL in vital signs included: sitting/semi-supine diastolic blood pressure (BP) increase and decrease from BL of >=20mmHg, systolic BP increase and decrease from BL of >=30mmHg
Measured: From BL to Week 28
Number of Participants With Adverse Events of Special Interest
These AEs included severe and opportunistic infection AEs; herpes virus infection AEs; clinically significant categorical increases in hepatic enzymes AST, and ALT and total bilirubin, and potential cases meeting Hy's Law criteria for increased risk of drug induced liver injury (DILI); major adverse cardiovascular events, including pulmonary embolism and deep vein thrombosis, cerebrovascular accident; AEs for decreased renal function, acute kidney injury, clinically significant increases in serum creatinine (Scr) and decreases in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). Only participants with AEs mentioned above were reported in the table below.
Measured: From first dose of study intervention (Day 1) to Week 28
Change From Baseline in DAS28-CRP at Week 24
DAS28 is a measure based on assessment of 28 joints for tenderness and swelling (tender and swollen joint counts). DAS28-CRP is derived using differential weighting given to 4 components: tender joint count (range: 0-28), swollen joint count (range: 0-28), patient global assessment (recorded on a visual analog scale [VAS] scale of 0-100 mm), and CRP (milligram per liter). DAS28-CRP score ranges from 0 to 9.4. The lower the DAS28-CRP score is, the better the participant has response (remission = score<2.6, low disease activity = score≤3.2). A negative value in change from BL indicates an improvement.
Measured: BL (defined as the last non-missing measurement collected prior to the first administration of study drug on Day 1), Week 24
American College of Rheumatology (ACR)20, ACR 50, ACR 70, and ACR 90 Responder Rates at Week 12 and Week 24
The American College of Rheumatology's definition for calculating improvement in rheumatoid arthritis (ACR20) is calculated as a >=20% improvement in tender and swollen joint counts and 20% improvement in 3 of the 5 remaining ACR core set measures: patient and physician global assessments, pain, disability, and CRP. Similarly, ACR50, ACR70, and ACR 90 were calculated with the respective percent improvement. Responder rate = number of responders (who had ACR20/50/70/90 response)/(number of responders + non-responders + non-responder assigned by non-responder imputation [NRI] after removal of missingness due to COVID-19 and missing components at a given visit)
Measured: BL (defined as the last non-missing measurement collected prior to the first administration of study drug on Day 1), Week 12, Week 24
Change From Baseline in the Tender/Painful and Swollen Joint Count at Week 12 and Week 24
The endpoint included Tender/Painful Joint Count 68 (TJC68) and 28 (TJC28). TJC68 was assessed by a blinded joint assessor to determine the number of joints that were considered tender or painful in upper body and upper/lower extremity. The response to pressure/motion on each joint was assessed using the following scale: Present/Absent/Not Done/Not Applicable (to be used for artificial or missing joints). The 28-joints set is the subset of 68 joints set including the following joints: shoulders, elbows, wrists, metacarpophalangeal joints, proximal interphalangeal joints, and knees. TJC28 was calculated by Pfizer from TJC68. Higher scores indicate higher level of disability.
Measured: BL (defined as the last non-missing measurement collected prior to the first administration of study drug on Day 1), Week 12, Week 24
Change From Baseline in the Physician's Global Assessment (PhGA) of Arthritis at Week 12 and Week 24
PhGA of Arthritis is an evaluation done by investigator based on the participant's disease signs, functional capacity and physical examination, and should be independent of the Patient's Global Assessment of Arthritis. The investigator's response was recorded using a 100 mm VAS. Physician's Global Assessment score ranges from 0 to 100. Higher scores indicate higher level of disability. A negative value in change from BL indicates an improvement.
Measured: BL (defined as the last non-missing measurement collected prior to the first administration of study drug on Day 1), Week 12, Week 24

Primary outcome
Change From Baseline (BL) in Disease Activity Score (DAS)28-C Reactive Protein (CRP) at Week 12
Time frame: BL (defined as the last non-missing measurement collected prior to the first administration of study drug on Day 1), Week 12
DAS28 is a measure based on assessment of 28 joints for tenderness and swelling (tender and swollen joint counts). Disease Activity Score 28-C reactive protein (DAS28-CRP) is derived using differential weighting given to 4 components: tender joint count (range: 0-28), swollen joint count (range: 0-28), patient global assessment (recorded on a visual analog scale [VAS] scale of 0-100 mm), and CRP (milligram per liter). DAS28-CRP score ranges from 0 to 9.4. The lower the DAS28-CRP score is, the better the participant has response (remission = score<2.6, low disease activity = score≤3.2). A negative value in change from BL indicates an improvement. Mixed Model Repeated Measures was used for statistical analysis, which used the change from BL of DAS28-CRP as an outcome and treatment, scheduled study visit, BL value of DAS28-CRP, treatment by visit interaction and BL by visit interaction as fixed effects. The model used the unstructured covariance matrix.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing PF-06650833, PF-06651600 and Tofacitinib in people with Rheumatoid Arthritis, run by Pfizer at 144 sites in 10 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 4 inclusion and 29 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Apr 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 144 sites in Poland, Hungary, Slovakia, Czechia, Bulgaria and 5 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. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
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 7 Apr 2023). 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?
Change From Baseline (BL) in Disease Activity Score (DAS)28-C Reactive Protein (CRP) at Week 12 (time frame: BL (defined as the last non-missing measurement collected prior to the first administration of study drug on Day 1), Week 12). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
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 7 Apr 2023.
