  Purpose

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of fostamatinib compared to placebo on ambulatory blood pressure in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis who are taking a disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drug (DMARD).

The study will last for 57 days.

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Mean change from baseline in 24-hour mean ambulatory systolic blood pressure [ Time Frame: 4 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Mean change from baseline in 24-hour mean ambulatory diastolic blood pressure [ Time Frame: 4 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • Mean change from baseline in mean daytime (6am-10pm) systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure, night time (10pm-6am) systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure, awake and sleeping systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure [ Time Frame: 4 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • Mean change from baseline in clinic systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure and in morning pre-dose and evening post-dose home systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure [ Time Frame: 4 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • Mean change from completion/discontinuation to follow-up in clinical measurement of systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure [ Time Frame: week 4 to week 5 ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • Efficacy based on Disease Activity Score based on a 28 joint count (DAS28) [ Time Frame: 4 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    The DAS28 is based on a count of 28 swollen and tender joints, with a score ranging from 0 to 9.4, and can be used to objectively evaluate a patient's response to treatment.

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Male and female patients aged 18 or over diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis after the age of 16
  • Active rheumatoid arthritis defined as: ≥4 swollen joints and ≥4 tender/painful joints (from 28 joint count) and either erythrocyte sedimentation rate ≥28 mm/h, or C-reactive protein ≥10 mg/L.
  • Currently taking one of the following disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs: methotrexate, sulfasalazine, hydroxychloroquine or chloroquine.
  • Patients without essential hypertension or with essential hypertension if their blood pressure is controlled (<140/90 mmHg) with anti-hypertensive medications being stable at least 4 weeks prior to randomisation.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Females who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
  • Certain inflammatory conditions (other than rheumatoid arthritis), connective tissue diseases or chronic pain disorders
  • History of liver problems that have required previous investigations
  • Evidence of tuberculosis infection
  • Conditions that preclude or render difficult the 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring technique.
