A Study to Assess Efficacy and Safety of Filgotinib in Active Psoriatic Arthritis

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Psoriatic Arthritis
Interventions
Drug: Placebo Oral Tablet
Registration Number
NCT03101670
Lead Sponsor
Galapagos NV
Brief Summary

This is a multicenter, Phase 2, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in subjects with moderately to severely active Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA) who have an inadequate response or are intolerant to conventional disease-modifying therapy. A total of approximately 124 subjects will be randomized to one of 2 treatment arms in a 1:1 ratio: oral filgotinib tablets q.d. or matching placebo tablets q.d. The Screening visit will occur within 28 days before study drug administration. At Day 1 (Baseline), eligible subjects will be randomized to treatment for a duration of 16 weeks. The study is concluded with a Follow-up period lasting until 4 weeks after the last dose. Consequently, each subject will stay in the study for a maximum of 24 weeks (from Screening visit to Follow-up visit).
