Buch et al. evaluated the efficacy and safety of filgotinib in patients with moderately active rheumatoid arthritis and inadequate response to methotrexate in the FINCH 1 study. At Wk 12, ACR20 response rates were significantly higher with filgotinib 200 mg (77.9%) and 100 mg (67.8%) compared to placebo (43.8%). Safety profiles for both filgotinib doses were similar to adalimumab.

Among RA patients with an inadequate response or intolerance to bDMARDs, filgotinib (FIL) doses, compared to PBO resulted in significantly greater proportions achieving a clinical response at Wk12.Patients with active RA despite treatment with bDMARD therapy need treatment options. The FINCH 2 Phase 3 study compared the effects of FIL vs PBO for the treatment of RA patients with inadequate response or intolerance to ≥1 prior bDMARDs. Patients were randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio, receiving FIL 200 m...
