简要总结
Thus study will test an experimental drug called Z-102 (combination of prednisolone and dipyridamole) to treat patients with moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis.
详细描述
The primary objective of the study was to demonstrate the efficacy of Z102 (2.7 mg prednisolone/360 mg dipyridamole) versus placebo on the Disease Activity Score 28 using C reactive protein (DAS28-CRP) in subjects with rheumatoid arthritis at the study endpoint of 12 weeks

结局指标
主要结局
Change From Baseline in DAS28-CRP at 12 Weeks
时间窗: baseline to week 12
The primary efficacy endpoint was the mean change in Disease Activity Score 28 using C-reactive protein (DAS28-CRP) from baseline to Week 12. The DAS28-CRP is a composite measure of inflammation in Rheumatoid Arthritis and incorporates a tender and swollen joint count, CRP and Patient Global Assessment of Disease Activity expressed in a Gaussian distribution of variables ranging from 0 to 10. A DAS28-CRP score of \<3.2 suggests a low level of disease activity, while a score of \>5.1 suggests a high level of disease activity. Using the DAS-CRP as a continuous scale allows investigators (and clinicians) to measure a clinically meaningful endpoint following institution of a therapeutic intervention. In RA, clinical remission would therefore be graded as a DAS28 score of ≤3.2 with disease flare accompanying scores of ≥5.1; well-controlled disease is best characterized as fitting in between these two scores.

- Change From Baseline in DAS28-CRP Individual Components at 12 Weeks(Baseline to week 12)
- Percentage of Subjects Achieving ACR20, ACR50 and ACR70 at 12 Weeks(Week 12)
