The RINVOQ study program1

RINVOQ demonstrated consistent clinical remission rates across patient populations studied1

*RINVOQ is not indicated for MTX-naive patients.
Primary endpoint: clinical remission (DAS28 [CRP]<2.6) compared to placebo.

bDMARD: biological disease-modifying antirheumatic drug; csDMARD-IR: inadequate responder to conventional synthetic DMARDs; DAS28 (CRP): disease activity score with 28-joint count (C-reactive protein); DMARD: disease-modifying antirheumatic drug; MTX: methotrexate.

RINVOQ met every primary and ranked secondary endpoint in its Phase 3 registrational studies1-7

Endpoints across all studies

RINVOQ is not indicated for MTX-naive patients. All primary and ranked key secondary endpoints were multiplicity-controlled and met statistical significance denoted by a P-value ≤0.05. All endpoints were assessed at Week 12, if not indicated otherwise:

*Assessment at Week 14.
Assessment at Week 24.
Assessment at Week 26.
§In SELECT-COMPARE, all comparisons were for RINVOQ + MTX vs placebo + MTX, unless indicated otherwise.

ACR20/50: improvement of at least 20%/50% in the American College of Rheumatology core criteria; CDAI: Clinical Disease Activity Index; CR: clinical remission; CRP: C-reactive protein; csDMARD: conventional synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drug; DAS28 (CRP): disease activity score with 28-joint count (C-reactive protein); EMA: European Medicines Agency; FACIT-F: Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Fatigue; FDA: Food and Drug Administration; HAQ-DI: Health Assessment Questionnaire-Disability Index; LDA: low disease activity; mTSS: modified total Sharp score; MTX: methotrexate; PCS: physical component summary; SF-36: Short Form-36.
