---

Brief description of study

The purpose of this study is to determine how safe and effective the study drug Olokizumab is, in patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) who are already receiving, but not fully responding to treatment with an existing medication called a tumour necrosis factor alpha inhibitor

Detailed Study Description

The goal of this Phase III study is to assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of OKZ in subjects with moderately to severely active RA who have responded inadequately to TNFi therapy. The primary endpoint of the trial is at Week 12. Olokizumab is expected to reduce the disease activity and improve physical function. The study is expected to provide safety information in a large group of subjects over at least a 24 week period.
