Rheumatoid arthritis

A double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized multiple dose phase 1b trial of a CDK4/6 inhibitor, TCK-276, in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis

Rheumatology (Oxford)Published Randomised controlled trial

Authors' conclusion

TCK-276 (≤175 mg) was well tolerated with no clinically meaningful safety signals in patients with active RA.

Primary result

As reported in the abstract

Safety and pharmacokinetics
  • No deaths, serious adverse events, clinically meaningful laboratory (incl. haematological), vital sign, ECG or cardiac telemetry changes
  • TCK-276 rapidly absorbed; half-life ≈6 to 12 h
  • No obvious accumulation; increase in exposure dose proportional
