A Study to Assess the Pharmacokinetics of Certolizumab Pegol in Adults With Active Rheumatoid Arthritis

Study Purpose

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics and safety of certolizumab pegol in adults with active rheumatoid arthritis.

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms	No
Study Type An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes. An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes. Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.	Interventional
Eligible Ages	18 Years - 69 Years
Gender	All

- Participant has a body mass index within the range 18.0 kg/m2 to 35.0 kg/m2 (inclusive) - Male or female.

- A female participant is eligible to participate if: i) she is not pregnant, ii) not breastfeeding, iii) at least one of the following conditions applies: 1.

Exclusion Criteria:

- Participant has a known hypersensitivity to any components of the study medication(including polyethylene glycol) or comparative drugs (and/or an investigational device) as stated in this protocol.

- Participant has clinically significant electrocardiogram (ECG) abnormalities at Screening.

- Participant has previously been exposed to certolizumab pegol (CZP) - Participant has failed treatment with ≥1 tumor necrosis factor (TNF) α inhibitor or was a primary failure for any TNFα antagonist.

A primary failure is defined as no clinical disease improvement within the first 12 weeks of treatment (study participants who demonstrated clinical response within 12 weeks of treatment and subsequently lost response after 12 weeks of treatment are eligible)

- Participant has received a live vaccination within 6 weeks prior to Screening or intends to have a live vaccination during the course of the study or within 3 months following CZP treatment in the study.

- Participant has received any investigational drug or experimental procedure within 90 days prior to the first dose of IMPinvestigational medicinal product (IMP) - Participant has a laboratory abnormality at Screening, including any of the following: 1.

>3.0x upper limit of normal (ULN) of any of the following: alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alkaline phosphatase (ALP); or >ULN total bilirubin (>1.5x ULN total bilirubin if the participant has a documented pre-study diagnosis of Gilbert's syndrome) 2. white blood cell count <3.00x103/μL. 3. absolute neutrophil count (ANC) <1.5x103/μL. 4. lymphocyte count <500 cells/μL. 5. hemoglobin <8.5 g/dL. 6. Any other laboratory abnormality, which, in the opinion of the Investigator, will prevent the study participant from completing the study or will interfere with the interpretation of the study results

Trial Details

Trial ID: This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.	NCT04740814
Phase Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans. Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data. Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs. Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.	Phase 1
