joint efficacy in PsA1,2
Improvement in signs and symptoms as measured by ACR20 from as early as Week 2 and maintained to Week 56, with statistically significantly greater improvement in ACR20 vs placebo at Week 12* and noninferiority vs adalimumab in ACR20 response at Week 12.†‡
See joint efficacy data
across key PsA manifestations1,2
Statistically significantly more patients treated with RINVOQ achieved PASI 75 vs placebo at Week 16,* and resolution of enthesitis and minimal disease activity vs placebo at Week 24,* with responses maintained at Week 56.

safety profile established in 9 clinical trials across rheumatology indications1-13
RINVOQ’s safety profile has been established across a robust clinical trial program in PsA, AS, and RA, representing more than 8,500 patient-years of exposure to RINVOQ 15 mg.§
See RINVOQ safety profile
*P≤0.001 vs placebo, statistically significant in the multiplicity-controlled analysis.
†P≤0.001 vs adalimumab for noninferiority, statistically significant in the multiplicity-controlled analysis.
‡Superiority to adalimumab could not be demonstrated.
§Patient-years of exposure are inclusive of all patients in the RINVOQ 15 mg treatment arms in the SELECT-PsA 1, SELECT-PsA 2, SELECT-AXIS 1, SELECT-EARLY, SELECT-COMPARE, SELECT-MONOTHERAPY, SELECT-NEXT, and SELECT-BEYOND registrational trials, and the SELECT-CHOICE clinical trial.
Rheumatoid arthritis indication1
RINVOQ is indicated for the treatment of moderate to severe active rheumatoid arthritis in adult patients who have responded inadequately to, or who are intolerant to one or more disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs). RINVOQ may be used as monotherapy or in combination with methotrexate.

[Button links to MOA video on the Videos & Perspectives page]
SELECT-PsA 1: A double-blind, active comparator-controlled Phase 3 study and open-label extension of 1,705 adult patients with active PsA and an inadequate response or intolerance to at least one non-biologic DMARD. Patients were randomized to RINVOQ 15 mg QD (n=429), upadacitinib 30 mg QD (n=423), placebo (n=423), or adalimumab 40 mg EOW (n=429). Stable treatment of NSAIDs, corticosteroids, and ≤2 non-biologic DMARDs were permitted, but not required. At Week 24, all patients randomized to placebo were switched to RINVOQ 15 mg or upadacitinib 30 mg once daily in a blinded manner. The primary endpoint was the proportion of patients achieving ACR20 at Week 12. The approved dose of RINVOQ in active PsA is 15 mg once daily. Upadacitinib 30 mg QD is not an approved dose in PsA.
ACR20: American College of Rheumatology 20% improvement in both tender and swollen joint counts, plus three of the following: patient assessments of pain, global disease activity and physical function, physician global assessment of disease activity and acute phase reactant (high sensitivity C-reactive protein); DMARD: disease-modifying antirheumatic drug; EOW: every other week; JAK: Janus kinase; PASI: Psoriasis Area Severity Index; QD: once daily.
