Full title of the trial

A PHASE III, MULTICENTER, RANDOMIZED, DOUBLE-BLIND PLACEBO-CONTROLLED STUDY TO ASSESS THE EFFICACY AND SAFETY OF TOCILIZUMAB IN SUBJECTS WITH GIANT CELL ARTERITIS

A.3.1

Title of the trial for lay people, in easily understood, i.e. non-technical, language

A clinical study in which neither staff at the site nor the patient nor the sponsor's team know if the patient received drug with an active ingredient or drug without an active ingredient. The aim of this study is to find out if tocilizumab is an effective and safe treatment in patients with Giant Cell Arteritis, an inflammatory disease of the blood vessels.

Condition being studied is a rare disease

E.2 Objective of the trial

E.2.1

Main objective of the trial

To evaluate the efficacy of tocilizumab (TCZ) compared to placebo, in combination with a 26 week prednisone taper regimen, in patients with giant cell arteritis (GCA), as measured by the proportion of patients in sustained remission at Week 52 following induction and adherence to the protocol-defined prednisone taper regimen

E.2.2

Secondary objectives of the trial

To evaluate
•efficacy of TCZ in combination with a 26-wk prednisone taper regimen vs placebo in combination with the 52-wk prednisone taper regimen, in pts with GCA, as measured by the proportion of pts in sustained remission at Wk 52 following induction and adherence to the protocol-defined prednisone taper regimen
•efficacy of TCZ in combination with a 26-wk prednisone taper regimen vs both placebo groups, in pts with GCA, as measured by the following:
−Time to GCA disease flare after clinical remission
−Cumulative CS dose
•effect on pts QoL of TCZ in combination with a 26-wk prednisone taper regimen vs both placebo groups, in pts with GCA, based on the patient-reported outcome as measured by SF-36 and patient global assessment of disease activity on a visual analogue scale
•PK and PD of TCZ in combination with a 26-wk prednisone taper regimen in pts with GCA
•safety, tolerability, immunogenicity of TCZ in combination with a 26-wk prednisone taper regimen in pts with GCA
