A Study to Assess Adverse Events, Change in Disease Activity, and How the Drug Moves Through the Body in Children With Juvenile Psoriatic Arthritis (jPsA) Receiving Subcutaneously Injected Risankizumab or Adalimumab

Study Purpose

Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a type of arthritis that happens when the body's immune system attacks healthy cells and tissues causing joint pain, stiffness, and swelling. Symptoms can get worse and go away for periods of time. PsA that begins before a patient's 16th birthday is called juvenile PsA (jPsA).This study will evaluate how safe risankizumab is for the treatment of psoriatic arthritis and to assess change in disease symptoms. Risankizumab is being studied for the treatment of jPsA and adalimumab is approved for the treatment of jPsA. Participants are placed in 1 of 2 groups, called treatment arms. Each group receives a different treatment. There is a 1 in 4 chance that participants will be assigned to receive adalimumab. Approximately 40 juvenile participants with jPsA will be enrolled at approximately 30 sites worldwide. Participants will receive risankizumab and adalimumab as subcutaneous (SC) injections based on body weight. At the start of Period 1, participants are randomized to receive risankizumab or adalimumab for 24 weeks. Participants who respond to the study treatment received in Period 1, will continue to receive the same treatment in Period 2 for another 100 weeks. Those with worsening jPsA symptoms in Period 2 will be withdrawn from the study. Participants who receive adalimumab are followed for safety for 70 days after the last study treatment. Participants who receive risankizumab are followed for 140 days after the last study treatment. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care (due to study procedures). Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires.

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	5 Years - 18 Years
Gender	All

More Inclusion & Exclusion Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

- Diagnosis of juvenile psoriatic arthritis (jPsA) according to International League of Associations for Rheumatology criteria for at least 6 months prior to screening.

- Active Disease in >= 3 joints at screening and at Baseline (swelling not due to deformity, or limitation of motion with pain, tenderness, or both) are eligible for inclusion in the study.

- Have had an inadequate response (lack of efficacy after minimum 2-month duration of therapy at maximally tolerated dose), or intolerance to previous or current treatment with at least 1 of the following conventional synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (csDMARDs): methotrexate (MTX), sulfasalazine, leflunomide, or hydroxychloroquine.

Exclusion Criteria:

- Have any other autoimmune disease, rheumatic disease (including systemic Juvenile idiopathic arthritis [JIA], rheumatoid factor-positive or rheumatoid factor-negative polyarticular JIA, extended oligoarticular JIA, persistent oligoarticular JIA, enthesitis-related arthritis, and undifferentiated JIA), or overlap syndrome.

- Prior inadequate response to drugs in the anti-TNF, IL-23 inhibitor, and IL-12/23 inhibitor classes.

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.	NCT06100744
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 3
