Study Summary

This was a Phase II, randomized, open-label, multicenter study designed to evaluate the immune response to vaccines after administration of 1000 mg of rituximab in subjects with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who were receiving background methotrexate (MTX).

Primary Outcome

The immune response to tetanus toxoid adsorbed booster vaccine was measured in serum samples immediately prior to and 4 weeks after vaccine administration. The tetanus antibody test was an ELISA that used tetanus toxoid as a capturing reagent and alkaline phosphatase-conjugated anti-human IgG (γ) for detection. For patients with pre-vaccination tetanus antibody titers \< 0.1 IU/mL, a positive immune response was defined as an antibody titer ≥ 0.2 IU/mL. For patients with pre-vaccination tetanus

Interventions

  • DRUG Methotrexate
  • DRUG Methylprednisone
  • BIOLOGICAL C. albicans
  • BIOLOGICAL Tetanus toxoid adsorbed booster vaccine
