Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Rheumatoid Arthritis
Interventions
Biological: ABT-122
Biological: Placebo
Registration Number
NCT01853033
Lead Sponsor
AbbVie
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of ABT-122 in subjects with Rheumatoid Arthritis.

Detailed Description

This is a phase 1, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multiple ascending dose study. Twenty-four subjects with Rheumatoid Arthritis will be selected to participate. Subjects will be randomized to receive either ABT-122 or placebo. ABT-122 or placebo will be administered as subcutaneous (under the skin) injections in three dosing groups.
