Article Synopsis
- Evobrutinib, a BTK inhibitor, was evaluated for safety and efficacy against teriflunomide in treating relapsing multiple sclerosis in two phase 3 trials involving nearly 2,300 participants across 52 countries.
- Participants aged 18-55 with specific disability scores were randomly assigned to receive either evobrutinib or teriflunomide, with both studies designed as double-blind to avoid bias among participants and researchers.
- The primary endpoint was the annualized relapse rate over 156 weeks, with data collected from June 2020 to October 2023, showing that 66-67% of the participants were female across the trials.
What Is This Summary About?: This summary explains the findings from a recent investigation that combined the results of over 1000 people from three clinical studies to understand the safety of evobrutinib. Evobrutinib is an oral medication (taken by mouth), being researched as a potential treatment for multiple sclerosis (MS). This medication was also investigated in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).

Objective: Evobrutinib is a highly selective, orally administered Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor. The objective of this phase II, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of evobrutinib in patients with active autoantibody-positive systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).
Methods: Patients were diagnosed with SLE by either the Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics criteria or at least four American College of Rheumatology criteria 6 months or more prior to screening, had an SLE Disease Activity Index-2000 score of 6 or more, were autoantibody-positive and on standard-of-care therapy.
Objective: Analyse the integrated safety profile of evobrutinib, a Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibitor (BTKi), using pooled data from multiple sclerosis (MS), rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) trials.
Methods: Phase II, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial data were analysed (N=1083; MS: n=213, 48 weeks (W); RA: n=390, 12W; SLE: n=480, 52W). The analysis included all patients who received ≥1 dose of evobrutinib (25 mg or 75 mg once daily, or 50 mg or 75 mgtwice daily) or placebo.
