What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early This study
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published

Summary

This phase 2 trial tests an experimental drug called JS005 in Chinese adults with active non-radiographic axial spondyloarthritis, a form of inflammatory back pain that does not yet show damage on X-rays. Participants receive either a low, medium, or high dose of JS005 or a placebo as a series of injections over 16 weeks. The study measures how well the drug reduces symptoms and inflammation, and checks for side effects.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
an experimental anti-IL-17A monoclonal antibody called JS005
What this could lead to
If successful, JS005 could offer a new treatment option for people with non-radiographic axial spondyloarthritis, reducing pain and inflammation.
What could go wrong
This is an early phase 2 trial with only 23 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The drug may not work better than placebo or could have side effects.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Patients who do not meet the modified New York criteria for AS in 1984; Meet the 2009 axSpA classification criteria recommended by International Assessment Society of Axial Spondyloarthritis (ASAS): inflammatory back pain for at least 3 months; Age of onset \< 45 years; Sacroiliitis on MRI with≥ 1 axial spondyloarthritis features or HLA-B27 positive with ≥ 2 SpA features (MRI and X-ray of sacroiliac joint as confirmed by central readers). 2. Objective signs of inflammation at screening: active inflammation of the sacroiliac joints on MRI and/or high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) \> upper limit of normal without other diagnoses to explain the MRI results or elevated hsCRP. 3. Active axSpA at screening and baseline: assessed by total Bath ankylosing spondylitis disease activity index (BASDAI) ≥ 4 (0-10 scale) and spinal pain ≥ 4 (according to the 0-10 NRS scale, BASDAI question #2). 4. Voluntarily participate in this clinical trial and sign the informed consent form. 5. Male or female aged between 18 and 65 years (both inclusive) at the time of signing informed consent. Female subjects of childbearing age are required to have a confirmed negative result of urine and/or serum pregnancy test performed within 3 days before randomization and agree to use reliable contraceptive measures during the study; Male subjects and their female partners of childbearing age must agree to use reliable contraception during the study. 6. Patients meet at least one of the following: 1) have an inadequate or ineffective response to NSAIDs, 2) have been intolerant to at least one dose of NSAIDs, 3) have contraindications to NSAIDs therapy. Inadequate or ineffective response to NSAIDs is defined as no remission after continuous treatment with standard doses of at least 2 NSAIDs for a total of no less than 4 weeks and no less than 2 weeks for each NSAID. 7. Patients regularly taking NSAIDs as part of their AS therapy are required to maintain a stable dose for at least 2 weeks prior to randomization. 8. Patients using tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα) inhibitors must have experienced an inadequate response to the standard treatment dose for at least 3 months, or have been intolerant to TNFα inhibitors. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Unable or unwilling to undergo MRI. 2. Previous exposure to JS005 or any other biologic drug directly targeting IL-17 or IL-17 receptor. 3. Have taken high potency analgesics (e.g., opiates of methadone, hydromorphone, morphine) within 2 weeks prior to randomization. 4. Previous treatment with any intra-articular injection (e.g., glucocorticoids) within 4 weeks prior to randomization. 5. Previous treatment with any biological immunomodulating agents other than the TNFα inhibitors. 6. Treatment with JAK inhibitor agents within 8 weeks prior to randomization and unwilling to discontinue during the study.
