- 240
- Adult male or female, at least 18 years old.
- Diagnosis of RA for = 3 months based on the 2010 ACR/EULAR classification criteria for RA.
- Subject meets the following minimum disease activity criteria:
•= 6 swollen joints (based on 66 joint counts) and = 6 tender joints (based on 68 joint counts) at Screening and Baseline Visits (Appendix E); and
•hsCRP = 3 mg/L (central lab) at Screening Visit.
- Subjects must have been treated for = 3 months with = 1 bDMARD therapy but continue to exhibit active RA or had to discontinue due to intolerability or toxicity, irrespective of treatment duration
- Subjects must have discontinued all bDMARDs prior to the first dose of study drug. The washout period for bDMARDs prior to the first dose of study drug is specified below or should be at least five times the mean terminal elimination half-life of a drug:
•= 4 weeks for etanercept;
•= 10 weeks for adalimumab, infliximab, certolizumab, golimumab, and tocilizumab;
•= 1 year for rituximab OR = 6 months if B cells have returned to pretreatment level or normal reference range (central lab) if pretreatment levels are not available.
- Females must not be pregnant, breastfeeding, or considering becoming pregnant during the study or for approximately 30 days after the last dose of study drug.
- For all females of child-bearing potential: a negative serum pregnancy test at the Screening Visit and a negative urine pregnancy test at baseline prior to the first dose of study drug.
- Female subjects of childbearing potential must practice at least 1 protocol-specified method of birth control that is effective from Study Day 1 through at least 30 days. Female subjects of non-childbearing potential do not need to use birth control.
- Dose of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and acetaminophen/paracetamol must have been at a stable dose = 1 week prior to the first dose of study drug; oral corticosteroids (equivalent to prednisone = 10 mg/day) or inhaled corticosteroids for stable medical conditions are allowed but must have been at a stable dose = 4 weeks prior to the first dose of study drug.
- Subjects must have discontinued all bDMARDs prior to the first dose of study drug. The washout period for bDMARDs prior to the first dose of study drug is specified below or should be at least five times the mean terminal elimination half-life of a drug:
•= 4 weeks for etanercept;
•= 10 weeks for adalimumab, infliximab, certolizumab, golimumab, and tocilizumab;
•= 1 year for rituximab OR = 6 months if B cells have returned to pretreatment level or normal reference range (central lab) if pretreatment levels are not available.
- Subjects must have discontinued all high-potency opiates at least 1 week and oral traditional Chinese medicine for at least 4 weeks prior to the first dose of study drug (refer to Section 5.3 for prohibited medications).
Are the trial subjects under 18? no
Number of subjects for this age range:
F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years) yes
F.1.2.1 Number of subjects for this age range 220
F.1.3 Elderly (>=65 years) yes
F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range 20
- History of any of the following cardiovascular conditions:
•Moderate to severe congestive heart failure (New York Heart Association Class III or IV)
•Recent history (within past 6 months) cerebrovascular accident (CVA), myocardial infarction, coronary stenting
•Uncontrolled hypertension as defined by a persistent systolic blood pressure (BP) > 160 mmHg or diastolic BP > 100 mmHg. For subjects with known hypertension, the subject's BP must be stable for at least 4 weeks on current, stable anti-hypertensive medications
•Prior unprovoked deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or pulmonary embolism (PE) (i.e., any spontaneous event not directly attributable to trauma or vascular instrumentation)
•Any other condition which, in the opinion of the Investigator, would put the subject at risk by participating in the protocol.
- Treated with intra-articular, intramuscular, intravenous, trigger point or tender point, intra-bursa, or intra-tendon sheath corticosteroids in the preceding 8 weeks prior to the first dose of study drug.
- Treated with any investigational drug within 30 days or five half-lives of the drug (whichever is longer) prior to the first dose of study drug or is currently enrolled in another clinical study.
- Receipt of any live vaccine within 4 weeks prior to the first dose of study drug, or expected need of live vaccination during study participation including at least 4 weeks after the last dose of oral study drug
- Any active or recurrent viral infection that, based on the Investigator's clinical assessment, makes the subject an unsuitable candidate for the study, including hepatitis B virus (HBV) or hepatitis C virus (HCV), recurrent or disseminated (even a single episode) herpes zoster, disseminated (even a single episode) herpes simplex, or human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
Active HBV, HCV and HIV are defined as:
•HBV: hepatitis B surface antigen (HBs Ag) positive (+) or, for hepatitis B core antibody (HBc Ab) positive subjects, detection of HBV deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) by polymerase chain reaction;
•HCV: HCV ribonucleic acid (RNA) detectable in any subject with anti-HCV antibody (HCV Ab);
- Have active tuberculosis (TB) or meets TB exclusionary parameters
- Have used known strong cytochrome P450 (CYP)3A inhibitors or strong CYP3A inducers from Screening through the end of the study.
- History of any malignancy except for successfully treated non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) or localized carcinoma in situ of the cervix.
- History of clinically significant (per Investigator's judgment) drug or alcohol abuse within the last 6 months.
- History of gastrointestinal perforation (other than appendicitis or penetrating injury), diverticulitis or significantly increased risk for gastrointestinal perforation per investigator judgment.
- Any conditions that could interfere with drug absorption including but not limited to short bowel syndrome.
- Recipient of an organ transplant.
- History of clinically significant medical conditions or any other reason that in the opinion of the Investigator would interfere with the subject's participation in this study or would make the subject an unsuitable candidate to receive study drug.
- Active infection(s) requiring treatment with parenteral anti-infectives within 30 days, or oral anti-infectives within 14 days prior to the first dose of study drug.
- History of an allergic reaction or significant sensitivity to constituents of the study drugs (and its excipients) and/or other products in the

Name Time Method Main Objective: The main objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ABBV-105, upadacitinib, and of ABBV-599 (ABBV-105 plus upadacitinib) vs placebo on a background of conventional synthetic DMARDs (csDMARDs) for the treatment of signs and symptoms of RA at 12 weeks in biological DMARD-inadequate response (bDMARD-IR) or bDMARD-intolerant subjects with moderately to severely active RA and to define optimal dose(s) for further development.;Secondary Objective: n/a;Primary end point(s): Change from baseline in disease activity score (DAS)28 (C-reactive protein [CRP]) at Week 12;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Week 12
