After 90 days of open-label etanercept, 51 responding children were randomized to continue etanercept or receive placebo in a double-blind comparison. The clinical primary endpoint, disease flare, was met in favor of etanercept (28% vs 81% with placebo; p=0.0030), but the randomized sample was small, limiting the strength of the evidence.

PF-06410293
Marketed by Pfizer
NCT02480153 · Phase 3 · completed
This was a randomized, quadruple-blind, active-controlled Phase 3 trial in 597 patients comparing PF-06410293 with adalimumab-EU on a hard clinical endpoint: ACR20 response at Week 12. The primary equivalence analysis succeeded, with the 95% confidence interval for the response rate difference falling entirely within the prespecified -14% to +14% margin (observed difference -2.98%, 95% CI -10.38% to 4.44%). The large sample size, blinding, active comparator, and met primary endpoint together provide strong evidence of equivalent efficacy.
