About this trial

The study includes adult patients with SAPHO syndrome (ORPHA: 793), meeting the modified classification criteria according to Kahn (2003), with the ineffectiveness of standard treatment (patient's global assessment of the disease on the VAS scale greater than or equal to 4 cm with accompanying pain on the VAS scale greater than or equal to 4 cm) treated with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs in a stable dose for at least 4 weeks and/or classical disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs in stable doses for at least 12 weeks.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Change in the scope of disease activity as assessed by the patient- a decrease in the overall disease activity on the Visual Analogue Scale by min. 50 percent and a decrease in pain assessed by the patient on the Visual Analogue Scale by min. 50 percent

Change in the scope of disease activity as assessed by the patient - a decrease in the overall disease activity as assessed by the patient on the Visual Analogue Scale by min. 50 percent after 12 weeks from randomization day and a decrease in pain assessed by the patient on the Visual Analogue Scale by min. 50 percent after 12 weeks from randomization day. The minimum value is - 0, and the maximum value is - 100 mm. The higher scores mean a worse outcome. A decrease by a minimum of 50 percent means a better outcome.

Time frame
12 weeks (day 85)

Secondary outcomes

1

Change in patient-assessed disease activity

Change in patient-assessed disease activity - a minimum 50 percent decrease in patient-assessed Visual Analogue Scale overall disease activity from the randomization score at weeks 4 and 8 and a minimum 50 percent decrease in patient-assessed Visual Analogue Scale pain from the score on daily basis randomization after 4 and 8 weeks. The minimum value is - 0, and the maximum is - 100 mm. The higher scores mean a worse outcome. A decrease by a minimum of 50 percent means a better outcome.

Time frame
after 4 and 8 weeks
2

Occurrence of remission

Occurrence of remission - complete resolution of osteoarticular and skin complaints in the patient's assessment - after 4, 8 and 12 weeks from randomization day

Time frame
after 4, 8 and 12 weeks
3

Occurrence of partial remission

Occurrence of partial remission - complete resolution of osteoarticular or skin symptoms in the patient's assessment - after 4, 8 and 12 weeks from randomization day

Time frame
after 4, 8 and 12 weeks
4

Occurrence of the patient acceptable symptom state (PASS score)

Occurrence of the patient acceptable symptom state (PASS score) after 4, 8 and 12 weeks from randomization day. Possible answer- "yes" or "no", with "yes" means a better outcome.

Time frame
after 4, 8 and 12 weeks
