ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryTime to Relapse (ToR) of Takayasu Arteritis (TAK) According to Protocol-defined Criteria Through the End of Double-blind PeriodFrom double-blind Week 0 up to end of double-blind period (up to 71.1 weeks)
ToR:time from randomization to 1st relapse through end of double-blind period (EDBP) per protocol-defined criteria with 5 categories:systemic (objective):body temperature \>=38.0°C, weight loss \>2kg in 4 weeks, arthralgia, swelling \& tenderness =\>2 joints; systemic (subjective):malaise, myalgia, headache, dizziness/vertigo at \>= grade 2, high inflammation markers (C-reactive protein \>=1.0mg/dL, erythrocyte sedimentation rate \>=30mm/hr), vascular symptoms:renovascular hypertension: if normal BP \<120/80mmHg risen to \>=140/90mmHg, or if normal BP \>=120/80mmHg, diastolic BP risen by \>=20mmHg, new bruits/loss of pulse/difference in systolic BP between left and right by \>=10mmHg/tenderness/spontaneous pain in carotid artery/chest/back region, aortic valve incompetence; ischemic symptoms:abdominal pain, seizure, syncope, intermittent claudication, ischemic cardiac pain. Relapse:\>=2 categories met criteria.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)Double-blind period: Double-blind Week 0 up to end of double-blind treatment period (56.1 weeks); OLE period: OL Week 0 up to end of OLE treatment period (48.1 weeks)
An adverse event (AE) was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship with the study intervention. TEAEs were defined as AEs with onset or worsening on or after date of first dose of study intervention through the day of last dose.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With Treatment-emergent Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)Double-blind period: Double-blind Week 0 up to end of double-blind treatment period (56.1 weeks); OLE: OL Week 0 up to end of OLE treatment period (48.1 weeks)
SAE is any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose may results in death, is life-threatening, requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect, is a suspected transmission of any infectious agent via a medicinal product. Treatment-emergent SAEs were defined as SAEs with onset or worsening on or after date of first dose of study intervention through the day of last dose.
SecondaryTime to Relapse of TAK According to Kerr's Criteria Through the End of Double-blind PeriodFrom double-blind Week 0 up to end of double-blind period (up to 71.1 weeks)
ToR was defined from the date of randomization to the judged date of relapse through the EDBP based on Kerr's definition: participants who met 2 or more categories in the following 4 categories were considered as relapse: systemic (objective):body temperature \>=38.0°C, weight loss \>2kg in 4 weeks, arthralgia, swelling \& tenderness =\>2 joints; systemic (subjective):malaise, myalgia, headache, dizziness/vertigo at \>= grade 2, high inflammation markers (C-reactive protein \>=1.0mg/dL, erythrocyte sedimentation rate \>=30mm/hr), vascular symptoms:renovascular hypertension: if normal BP \<120/80mmHg risen to \>=140/90mmHg, or if normal BP \>=120/80mmHg, diastolic BP risen by \>=20mmHg, new bruits/loss of pulse/difference in systolic BP between left and right by \>=10mmHg/tenderness/spontaneous pain in carotid artery/chest/back region, aortic valve incompetence; ischemic symptoms:abdominal pain, seizure, syncope, intermittent claudication, ischemic cardiac pain.
SecondaryTime to Relapse of TAK Based on Clinical Symptoms Through the End of Double-blind PeriodFrom double-blind Week 0 up to end of double-blind period (up to 71.1 weeks)
Time (in weeks) to relapse of TAK: time from randomization to the 1st relapse through the EDBP according to protocol-defined criteria with 5 categories: systemic (objective):body temperature \>=38.0°C, weight loss \>2kg in 4 weeks, arthralgia, swelling and tenderness =\>2 joints; systemic (subjective):malaise, myalgia, headache, dizziness/vertigo at \>= grade 2, high inflammation markers (C-reactive protein \>=1.0mg/dL, erythrocyte sedimentation rate \>=30mm/hr), vascular symptoms:renovascular hypertension: if normal BP \<120/80mmHg risen to \>=140/90mmHg, or if normal BP \>=120/80mmHg, diastolic BP risen by \>=20mmHg, new bruits/loss of pulse/difference in systolic BP between left and right by \>=10mmHg/tenderness/spontaneous pain in carotid artery/chest/back region, aortic valve incompetence; ischemic symptoms:abdominal pain, seizure, syncope, intermittent claudication, ischemic cardiac pain. Time to relapse was calculated by each category independently. Relapse:\>=2 categories met criteria.
SecondaryTime to Relapse of TAK in Each of the 5 Categories (Within Protocol-defined Criteria) Through the End of Double-blind PeriodFrom double-blind Week 0 up to end of double-blind period (up to 71.1 weeks)
Time to relapse of TAK: time from randomization date to the 1st relapse through the EDBP according to protocol-defined criteria with 5 categories: systemic (objective):body temperature \>=38.0°C, weight loss \>2kg in 4 weeks, arthralgia, swelling and tenderness =\>2 joints; systemic (subjective):malaise, myalgia, headache, dizziness/vertigo at \>= grade 2, high inflammation markers (C-reactive protein \>=1.0mg/dL, erythrocyte sedimentation rate \>=30mm/hr), vascular symptoms:renovascular hypertension: if normal BP \<120/80mmHg risen to \>=140/90mmHg, or if normal BP \>=120/80mmHg, diastolic BP risen by \>=20mmHg, new bruits/loss of pulse/difference in systolic BP between left and right by \>=10mmHg/tenderness/spontaneous pain in carotid artery/chest/back region, aortic valve incompetence; ischemic symptoms:abdominal pain, seizure, syncope, intermittent claudication, ischemic cardiac pain. Time to relapse was calculated by each category independently. Relapse:\>=2 categories met criteria.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Relapse of TAK in Each of the 5 Categories (Within Protocol-defined Criteria) Through the End of Double-blind PeriodFrom double-blind Week 0 up to end of double-blind period (up to 71.1 weeks)
Percentage of participants with time to relapse of TAK through the EDBP were reported. Protocol-defined criteria consisted of 5 categories: systemic (objective):body temperature \>=38.0°C, weight loss \>2kg in 4 weeks, arthralgia, swelling \& tenderness =\>2 joints; systemic (subjective):malaise, myalgia, headache, dizziness/vertigo at \>= grade 2, high inflammation markers (C-reactive protein \>=1.0mg/dL, erythrocyte sedimentation rate \>=30mm/hr), vascular symptoms:renovascular hypertension: if normal BP \<120/80mmHg risen to \>=140/90mmHg, or if normal BP \>=120/80mmHg, diastolic BP risen by \>=20mmHg, new bruits/loss of pulse/difference in systolic BP between left and right by \>=10mmHg/tenderness/spontaneous pain in carotid artery/chest/back region, aortic valve incompetence; ischemic symptoms: abdominal pain, seizure, syncope, intermittent claudication, ischemic cardiac pain.
SecondaryCumulative Oral Glucocorticoid (GC) Dose Through the End of Double-blind PeriodFrom double-blind Week 0 up to end of double-blind period (up to 71.1 weeks)
Cumulative oral GC dose (prednisolone or equivalent) through the end of double-blind period were reported. If the participant had relapse, oral GC dose (prednisolone or equivalent) used from randomization date to last observed date prior to the date of relapse were included in the analysis and if the participant had no relapse then oral GC dose used from randomization to last observed date through the end of double-blind period were included in the analysis.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Oral GC Dose Through the End of Double-blind PeriodBaseline (double-blind Week 0) up to end of double-blind period (up to 71.1 weeks)
Change from baseline in oral GC dose through the end of double-blind period were reported. Change from baseline was defined as the change between the GC dose at randomization and the last observed GC dose. If the participant had relapse, oral GC dose (prednisolone or equivalent) used from randomization date to last observed date prior to the date of relapse were included in the analysis and if the participant had no relapse then oral GC dose used from randomization to last observed date through the end of double-blind period were included in the analysis.
SecondaryNumber of Participants Achieving GC Dose of 5 mg/Day or Less Through the End of Double-blind PeriodFrom double-blind Week 0 up to end of double-blind period (up to 71.1 weeks)Number of participants who achieved GC dose of 5 mg/day or less through the end of double-blind period were reported.
