Efficacy and Safety of CMAB008 Compared with Innovator Infliximab in Patients with Moderate-to-Severe Rheumatoid Arthritis Receiving Concomitant Methotrexate: A Randomized, Double-blind, Multi-center, Phase III Non-inferiority Study.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

The aim of this work is to verify the non-inferior efficacy and safety of CMAB008 compared with innovator infliximab in rheumatoid arthritis patients combined with methotrexate.

Methods

We conducted a randomized, double-blinded, parallel, positive control design, multicenter study, with a stable dose of methotrexate. Patients were enrolled randomly with a ratio of 1:1 to receive intravenously CMAB008 3 mg/kg or innovator infliximab 3 mg/kg at weeks 0, 2, 6, 14, 22 and 30. The primary efficacy endpoint was American College of Rheumatology 20% improvement criteria (ACR20) response rate at week 30. The non-inferiority was established if the lower limit of the one-sided 97.5% confidence interval (CI) for the difference was more than - 15% and the equivalence was estab
