Brief Summary:
This study is designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of NDI-034858 in subjects with active Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA).
| Condition or disease | Intervention/treatment | Phase |
|---|---|---|
| Psoriatic Arthritis | Drug: NDI-034858 Other: Placebo | Phase 2 |
This is a Phase 2b, Randomized, Multi-center, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Multiple Dose Study .
Randomization to one of the treatments with NDI-034858 Dose 1, 2, 3 or placebo once daily (QD) will be based on a 1:1:1:1 scheme.
The maximum study duration per subject is approximately 20 weeks, including up to 30 days for the screening period, a 12-week treatment period, and a 4-week safety follow-up period.
Efficacy will be assessed using the ACR20 composite measure (including tender and swollen joint count, patient assessment of PsA pain visual analog scale (VAS), patient global PsA assessment VAS, physician global PsA assessment, HAQ-DI, and hsCRP) as well as the additional components. Efficacy for psoriasis among subjects who have ≥ 3% BSA) involvement on Day 1, will be measured using PASI, PGAs, and BSA.
Safety will be assessed by collecting AEs, recording vital signs, performing physical examinations, and evaluating clinical laboratory and ECGs results.

Primary Outcome Measures :
- Proportion of subjects achieving at least an American College of Rheumatology (ACR) 20 response [ Time Frame: Day 1 to Week 16 ]The ACR20 is a composite measure defined as both improvement of 20% in the number of tender (68) and number of swollen (66) joints, and a 20% improvement in three of the following five criteria: patient global assessment of psoriatic arthritis, physician global assessment of psoriatic arthritis, patient pain scale, disability history questionnaire (ie, HAQ-DI) and an acute phase reactant (ie, erythrocyte sedimentation rate [ESR] or hsCRP). For this primary endpoint, hsCRP will be used.
Secondary Outcome Measures :
- Proportion of subjects achieving at least an ACR-50 or ACR-70 response [ Time Frame: Day 1 to Week 16 ]The ACR-50 and ACR-70 are a composite measure defined as both improvement of 50% or 70%, respectively, in the number of tender (68) and number of swollen (66) joints, and a 50% or 70%, respectively, improvement in three of the following five criteria: patient global assessment of psoriatic arthritis, physician global assessment of psoriatic arthritis, patient pain scale, disability history questionnaire (ie, HAQ-DI) and an acute phase reactant (ie, ESR or CRP).
- Change from baseline in tender joint count (TJC) [ Time Frame: From screening until Week 12 ]The TJC 68 are a total score of points assigned for presence of tenderness in the following: Temporomandibular, sternoclavicular, acromioclavicular, shoulder, elbow, wrist, hip, knee, ankle, tarsus, typically assigned 2 points each; Metacarpophalangeal, finger proximal interphalangeal, metatarsophalangeal, toe proximal interphalangeal, typically assigned 10 points each; Distal interphalangeal, typically assigned 8 points.
- Change from baseline in swollen joint count (SJC) [ Time Frame: From screening until Week 12 ]The SJC 66 (SJC minus hip joints, which cannot be assessed for swelling) are a total score of points assigned for presence of swelling in the following: Temporomandibular, sternoclavicular, acromioclavicular, shoulder, elbow, wrist, knee, ankle, tarsus, typically assigned 2 points each; Metacarpophalangeal, finger proximal interphalangeal, metatarsophalangeal, toe proximal interphalangeal, typically assigned 10 points each; Distal interphalangeal, typically assigned 8 points.
- Change from baseline in Patient Global Assessment of Psoriatic Arthritis [ Time Frame: Day 1 to Week 16 ]Subjects will rate their assessment of their PsA using a VAS where 0 is 'very good, no symptoms' and 100 is 'very poor, severe symptoms'.
- Change from baseline in Patient Global Assessment of Psoriatic Arthritis pain [ Time Frame: Day 1 to Week 16 ]Subjects will rate their assessment of their PsA using a VAS where 0 is 'no pain' and 100 is 'most severe pain'.
- Change from baseline in Physician Global Assessment of Psoriatic Arthritis [ Time Frame: Day 1 to Week 16 ]The patients' overall disease status will be assessed, taking into account signs, symptoms, and function, of all components of joint and skin which is affected at the time of the visit and will rate this overall status using a VAS scale where 0 is 'very good, asymptomatic, and no limitation of normal activities' and 100 is 'very poor, very severe symptoms which are intolerable, and inability to carry out all normal activities'.
- Change from baseline in Health Activities Questionnaire - Disability Index (HAQ-DI) score [ Time Frame: Day 1 to Week 16 ]The HAQ-DI is comprised of eight domains: dressing, arising, eating, walking, hygiene, reach, grip, and activities. There are two or three questions per section. Scoring within each section is from 0 (without any difficulty) to 3 (unable to do). For each section the score given to that section is the worst score within the section (ie, if one question is scored 1 and another 2, then the score for the section is 2).
- Change from baseline in dactylitis count [ Time Frame: Day 1 to Week 16 ]The dactylitis count consists of totaling the number of single digits in the hands and feet with tenderness.
- Change from baseline in Leed's Enthesitis Index (LEI) [ Time Frame: Day 1 to Week 16 ]The LEI is comprised of review of six bilateral sites: Achilles tendon insertions, medial femoral condyles, and lateral epicondyles of the humerus. Tenderness at each site is quantified on a dichotomous basis: 0 means nontender and 1 means tender.
- Change from baseline in Physician Global Assessment of Psoriasis [ Time Frame: Day 1 to Week 16 ]The PGA is measured using a 0 to 4 scale with a 0 score meaning cleared and a 4 score meaning severe and a ≥ 2 grade improvement from baseline.
- Change from baseline in Disease Activity Score 28 with CRP(DAS28-CRP) [ Time Frame: Day 1 to Week 16 ]The DAS28-CRP describes the severity of PsA using clinical and laboratory data, specifically hsCRP. The DAS scores indicate how active a subject's psoriatic arthritis is currently and can be trended over time.
- Incidence of AEs and TAEs [ Time Frame: Day 1 to Week 16 ]The safety and tolerability of NDI-034858 will be assessed.
