Arm Description

Participants will be administered with 100 mg ABBV-3373 by intravenous infusion and placebo to adalimumab by subcutaneous injection every other week for 12 weeks. After 12 weeks, participants will receive placebo to adalimumab every other week until Week 22.

Participants will be administered with placebo to ABBV-3373 by intravenous infusion and 80 mg adalimumab by subcutaneous injection every other week for 12 weeks. After 12 weeks, participants will receive 80 mg adalimumab subcutaneously every other week until Week 22.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Change From Baseline to Week 12 in Disease Activity Score (DAS) 28 (C-reactive Protein [CRP])
The DAS28 (CRP) is a composite index used to assess rheumatoid arthritis disease activity, calculated based on the tender joint count (out of 28 evaluated joints), swollen joint count (out of 28 evaluated joints), Patient's Global Assessment of Disease Activity (measured on a visual analog scale [VAS] from 0-100 mm), and hsCRP (in mg/L). Scores on the DAS28 (CRP) range from 0.96 to approximately 10, where higher scores indicate more disease activity. A negative change from Baseline in DAS28 (CRP) indicates improvement in disease activity.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Change From Baseline to Week 12 in Clinical Disease Activity Index (CDAI)
The clinical disease activity index (CDAI) is a composite index for assessing disease activity based on the summation of the counts of tender joint count (out of 28 evaluated joints) and swollen joint count (out of 28 evaluated joints), Patient Global Assessment of Disease Activity and Physician Global Assessment of Disease Activity both measured on a VAS from 0 to 10 cm. The total CDAI score ranges from 0 to 76 with higher scores indicating higher disease activity. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement in disease activity.
Change From Baseline in Simplified Disease Activity Index (SDAI)
The SDAI is the numerical sum of five outcome parameters: tender and swollen joint count (based on a 28-joint assessment), Patient Global Assessment of Disease Activity and Physician Global Assessment of Disease Activity both measured on a VAS from 0-10 cm and level of CRP (in mg/dL; normal < 1 mg/dL). The SDAI has a range from 0 to 86, with higher scores indicating higher disease activity. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement in disease activity.
Change From Baseline to Week 12 in DAS28 (Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate [ESR])
The DAS28 (ESR) is a composite index used to assess rheumatoid arthritis disease activity, calculated based on the tender joint count (out of 28 evaluated joints), swollen joint count (out of 28 evaluated joints), Patient's Global Assessment of Disease Activity (measured on a VAS from 0-100 mm), and ESR (in mm/hr). Scores on the DAS28 (ESR) range from 0 to approximately 10, where higher scores indicate more disease activity. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement in disease activity.
Percentage of Participants Achieving Low Disease Activity (LDA) Based on DAS28 (CRP) at Week 12
The DAS28 (CRP) is a composite index used to assess rheumatoid arthritis disease activity, calculated based on the tender joint count (out of 28 evaluated joints), swollen joint count (out of 28 evaluated joints), Patient's Global Assessment of Disease Activity (measured on a VAS from 0-100 mm), and hsCRP (in mg/L). Scores on the DAS28 (CRP) range from 0.96 to approximately 10, where higher scores indicate more disease activity. A DAS28 (CRP) score less than or equal to 3.2 indicates low disease activity.
Percentage of Participants With an American College of Rheumatology 50% (ACR50) Response at Week 12
Participants who met the following 3 conditions for improvement from Baseline were classified as meeting the ACR50 response criteria: ≥ 50% improvement in 68-tender joint count; ≥ 50% improvement in 66-swollen joint count; and ≥ 50% improvement in at least 3 of the 5 following parameters: Physician global assessment of disease activity Patient global assessment of disease activity Patient assessment of pain Health Assessment Questionnaire - Disability Index (HAQ-DI) High-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP).

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This study will assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of ABBV-3373 in participants with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) on background methotrexate (MTX) compared with adalimumab.
Detailed Description
This study consists of a 12-week double-blind active-controlled phase and a 12 week double-blind extension period. In the active-controlled period of the first 12 weeks of treatment, participants are randomized to receive either ABBV-3373 100 mg intravenously (IV) every other week (EOW) or adalimumab 80 mg subcutaneously (SC) EOW according to a 2:1 ratio. At Week 12, the administration of ABBV-3373 was to stop to assess the durability of the observed clinical effects up to 24 weeks. Participants randomized to ABBV-3373 were to receive placebo injections, whereas participants randomized into the adalimumab arm were to continue their 80 mg dosing.

Yes
IPD Sharing Plan Description
AbbVie is committed to responsible data sharing regarding the clinical trials we sponsor. This includes access to anonymized, individual and trial-level data (analysis data sets), as well as other information (e.g., protocols and clinical study reports), as long as the trials are not part of an ongoing or planned regulatory submission. This includes requests for clinical trial data for unlicensed products and indications.
IPD Sharing Time Frame
Data requests can be submitted at any time and the data will be accessible for 12 months, with possible extensions considered.
IPD Sharing Access Criteria
Access to this clinical trial data can be requested by any qualified researchers who engage in rigorous, independent scientific research, and will be provided following review and approval of a research proposal and Statistical Analysis Plan (SAP) and execution of a Data Sharing Agreement (DSA).
