SAT0110 Efficacy and Safety of Pateclizumab (Anti-Lymphotoxin-Alpha) in Dmard-Ir Patients: Results of a Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Head-To-Head Phase 2 Study with Adalimumab
Abstract:Background
Pateclizumab (formerly MLTA3698A), a novel humanized IgG1 antibody against soluble and membrane isoforms of lymphotoxin-alpha, is being investigated as a targeted therapy for rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
Objectives
To compare the efficacy and safety of subcutaneous Pateclizumab (PTZ) vs placebo (PBO) and adalimumab (ADA) in patients with active RA and an inadequate response to DMARDs.
Methods
RA patients on oral DMARDs were randomized (2:2:1) to receive PTZ 360 mg, ADA 40 mg, or PBO every 2 weeks.… Show more
