简要总结
This study is a multicenter, open-label, randomized controlled trial designed to preliminarily evaluate the efficacy and safety of telitacicept in patients with refractory rheumatoid arthritis during a 24-week treatment period followed by a 2-week follow-up period.
详细描述
The refractory rheumatoid arthritis is a heterogeneous subgroup of RA patients, whose disease has not been satisfactorily controlled with several lines of DMARDs using the treat-to-target strategy. In 2024, telitacicept was approved for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis in China, and several case reports have demonstrated its efficacy in refractory RA.
This study plans to enroll 420 adult patients with difficult-to-treat rheumatoid arthritis, randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either telitacicept (160mg qw) plus standard therapy or standard therapy alone for 24 weeks.

- •Subjects with clinical, radiological, or laboratory evidence of active tuberculosis at screening;
- •Subjects with clinically significant cardiovascular, respiratory, digestive, endocrine, hematologic, neurological, or psychiatric disorders, or any other serious and/or unstable disease or history thereof, that in the investigator's opinion would pose a safety risk if participating in this study;
