Study Summary

The RESET-RA study will assess the safety and efficacy of the SetPoint System (study device) for the treatment of adult patients with active, moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis who have had an inadequate response or intolerance to biologic or targeted synthetic Disease-Modifying Anti-Rheumatic Drugs (DMARDs). The study device contains a miniaturized stimulator (implant) that is surgically placed under general anesthesia on the vagus nerve through a small incision on the left side of the neck (implant procedure). The study will enroll up to 250 subjects at up to 45 sites. All eligible subjects will undergo the implant procedure. Half of the subjects will receive active stimulation (treatment) and the other half will receive non-active stimulation (control). After completing primary endpoint assessments at Week 12, there will be a one-way crossover of control subjects to active stimulation and a 252-week open-label follow-up with all subjects (treatment and control) receiving active stimulation to evaluate long-term safety.

Primary Outcome

Response is defined as achieving at least 20% improvement from baseline to Week 12 in tender and swollen joint counts of 28 joints (scale 0=best to 28=worst) and 3 out of the following 5 measures: Health Assessment Questionnaire Disability Index (HAQ-DI) score (scale 0=no difficulty to 3=unable to do), subject global assessment (0=best to 10=worst), subject pain (0=no pain to 10=worst), evaluator's global assessment (0=best to 10=worst), or high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) concentrati
