•To evaluate the effect of filgotinib compared to placebo in active PsA as assessed by the ACR20 response at Week 12 |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
•To evaluate the effect of filgotinib on core domains of PsA (e.g. peripheral arthritis, psoriatic skin disease, enthesitis and dactylitis) as assessed by MDA, VLDA, ACR responses, PASI including BSA responses, SPARCC Enthesitis Index and LEI, LDI including TDC, PASDAS, DAPSA, mNAPSI, and PhGAP •To evaluate the effect of filgotinib on physical function in active PsA as assessed by HAQ-DI •To evaluate the effect of filgotinib on fatigue and quality of life in active PsA as assessed by FACIT-Fatigue, SF-36v2, and PsAID-12 •To evaluate the safety and tolerability of filgotinib

E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
Subjects who meet any of the following exclusion criteria are not to be enrolled in this study. •Known hypersensitivity to the study drug, the metabolites or the formulation excipients •Prior PsA or psoriasis treatment with ≥4 bioDMARDs •Prior exposure to a JAK inhibitor >2 doses •Any active / recent infection, as specified in Section 4.3 of the Protocol •Any chronic and / or uncontrolled medical condition that would put the subject at increased risk during study participation or circumstances which may make a subject unlikely or unable to complete or comply with study procedures and requirements, per investigator judgement •Any moderately to severely active musculoskeletal or skin disorder other than PsA or plaque psoriasis that would interfere with assessment of study parameters, as per judgement of the investigator NOTE: Prior history of reactive arthritis or axial spondyloarthritis is permitted if there is documentation of change in diagnosis to PsA or additional diagnosis of PsA •Any history of an inflammatory arthropathy with onset before age 16 years old •Active autoimmune disease that would interfere with assessment of study parameters or increase risk to the subject by participating in the study (e.g. uveitis, inflammatory bowel disease, uncontrolled thyroiditis, systemic vasculitis, transverse myelitis), per judgement of investigator •Presence of any extra-articular manifestations typically associated with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), such as rheumatoid nodules, rheumatoid lung, or other signs / symptoms, as per judgement of investigator •Pregnancy or nursing females •Active drug or alcohol abuse, as per judgement of investigator •Unwilling or unable to follow protocol requirements
