Overview

Brief Summary

The goal of this study is to determine the safety and tolerability of orally taken probiotic (R-2487) in patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis.

Patients will take an oral dosage of probiotic (R-2487) and physicians will assess and measure their Rheumatoid Arthritis. Blood and fecal evaluations of inflammation and assessment of probiotic (R-2487) on fecal level will also be measured.

Inclusion Criteria

  • Ages 18-75 years (Inclusive).
  • Able to provide written informed consent.
  • Men or women (not nursing or pregnant) who have active RA, defined as symptoms of RA prior to screening and have satisfied the ACR/EULAR 2010 criteria for the classification of RA prior to signing the informed consent.
  • Subjects must have a CDAI \> 10.0 at screening and have at least 3 tender and at least 3 swollen joints (excluding distal interphalangeal) at screening and at Day 1, based on the DAS28 joint count.
  • Subjects may be able to be on hydroxychloroquine, methotrexate, and leflunomide. Sulfasalazine use is not permitted.
  • Subjects may have received targeted synthetic DMARDs such as tofacitinib, baricitinib, and investigational therapies for RA if they have been washed out for 1 month prior to screening.
  • Subjects receiving oral corticosteroids must be on a stable dose and at the equivalent of ≤10 mg prednisone daily for at least 4 weeks. Subjects may not receive an IM, IV or IA administration of a corticosteroid within 4 weeks prior to screening visit or initiation of therapy.
  • All male and female subjects who are biologically capable of having children must agree to use a medically acceptable method of birth control for the duration of the study. All female subjects who are biologically capable of having children must have a negative pregnancy test result before administration of study drug. Any pregnancy that occurs in the female partner of a male subject in the trial must be reported if it occurs at any time during the study.
  • Refrain from receiving any type of vaccinations during the study period (to include but not limited to influenza, COVID, shingles, tetanus, hepatitis, pneumonia, HPV, DPT, MMR, and polio).

Exclusion Criteria

  • Pregnancy (females, unless surgically sterile or at least two years post- menopausal must have a negative serum pregnancy test within 14 days prior to receiving the study drug and a negative urine pregnancy test on Study Day 0 before receiving the study drug).
  • Nursing mothers.
  • Subjects with autoimmune disease other than RA \[e.g., psoriasis, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), vasculitis, seronegative spondylarthritis, Inflammatory Bowel Disease, Sjogren's syndrome\] or currently active fibromyalgia.
  • Subjects should not receive any of the following medications:
  • Rituximab within 12 months prior to Day 1,
  • Abatacept within 3 months prior to Day 1,
  • Infliximab, Adalimumab, Certolizumab, Tocilizumab, Cyclosporine, or
  • Mycophenolate mofetil within 2 months prior to Day 1, or
  • Etanercept, Anakinra, Immunoglobulin, or blood products within 28 days prior to Day 1
  • Prior immunotherapy, including systemic corticosteroids, such prednisone, biologics, Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors (such as tofacitinib, baricitinib or upadacitinib), ozanimod, or investigational therapy must have completed at least 5 half-lives or 30 days, whichever is longer, prior to Day 0, unless otherwise specified. In the case of cell-depleting therapies, such as B or T cell depletion, cell counts must have recovered to acceptable or baseline levels (use of licensed agents for indications not listed in the package insert is permitted).
