Overview
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy, pharmacokinetics, safety, and immunogenicity of KN019 after intravenous administration on background methotrexate in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis and inadequate response to methotrexate.
Detailed Description
This study is designed to provide efficacy data in support of the proposed claims of reducing signs and symptoms, improvement in physical function, and 1 year safety data for KN019 dosed at 5 and 10 mg/kg in patients with inadequate response to stable weekly doses of background methotrexate.

- •Patients must have been taking methotrexate for at least 3 months with at least a weekly dose of 7.5-25 mg, and a stable dose for 28 days prior to treatment (Day 1)
- •The patient must have active disease at both screening and baseline, as defined by having both:
- •6 tender/painful joints on motion (out of 68 joints assessed); and; 6 swollen joints (out of 66 joints assessed); CRP ≥ 7 mg/L, or ESR ≥28 mm/h

- •History of any other autoimmune rheumatic disease.
- •Patients who have previously received CTLA4-Ig therapy for any reason.
Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Percentage of Participants the proportion of subjects meeting the American College of Rheumatology criteria for 20% improvement (ACR 20) on Day 169
Time Frame: At Day 169
The ACR 20 is based on 20% improvement (compared with baseline values) in tender and swollen joint counts and on 20% improvement in 3 of the remaining 5 core set measures (participant global assessment of pain, participant global assessment of disease activity, physician global assessment of disease activity, participant assessment of physical function) and 1 acute phase reactant value.
