
To evaluate the effects of filgotinib on work productivity, fatigue, 
and general quality of life as measured by SF-36, FACIT-Fatigue, 
EQ-5D and WPAI-RA
The exploratory objectives of this study include: 
Study Design:
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo- and active-controlled, 
Phase 3 study in adult male and female subjects with active RA who 
have an inadequate response to MTX (MTX-IR). The study is designed 
to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of filgotinib as well as 
its effect on work productivity, fatigue, and quality of life. 
Approximately 1650 subjects will be randomized in a 3:3:2:3 ratio to 
filgotinib 200 mg, filgotinib 100 mg, active comparator (adalimumab), 
or placebo to match (PTM) administered for up to 52 weeks, all in the 
context of a weekly stable dose of MTX: 

Filgotinib 200 mg group: filgotinib (200 mg q.d.) + PTM filgotinib 
100 mg (PTM q.d.) + PTM adalimumab (PTM s.c. injection q2w)  
(N=450)

Filgotinib 100 mg group: filgotinib (100 mg q.d.) + PTM filgotinib 
200 mg (PTM q.d.) + PTM adalimumab (PTM s.c. injection q2w) 
(N=450)

Active comparator group: PTM filgotinib 200 mg (PTM q.d.) + 
PTM filgotinib 100 mg (PTM q.d.) + adalimumab (40 mg s.c. 
injection q2w) (N=300)

Placebo control group: PTM filgotinib 200 mg (PTM q.d.) + PTM
filgotinib 100 mg (PTM q.d.) + PTM adalimumab (PTM s.c. 
injection q2w) (N=450)

Randomization will be stratified by geographic region, prior exposure 
to biologic disease modifying antirheumatic drugs (bDMARDs), and 
presence of rheumatoid factor (RF) or anti-CCP (cyclic citrullinated 
peptide) antibody (Ab) at screening.
At Week 14, subjects who have not achieved at least 20% improvement 
from Day 1 in both swollen joint count (SJC) and tender joint count 
(TJC) will discontinue investigational study drug dosing but will 
continue with study visits and assessments per protocol. All subjects 
meeting this criterion who discontinue from investigational therapy are 
to receive standard of care treatment for their RA as determined by the 
investigator. 
At Week 24, all subjects assigned to placebo + MTX will be reassigned 
1:1 to either filgotinib 100 mg q.d. or 200 mg q.d. in addition to MTX 
in a blinded fashion and will continue in the study per protocol up to 
Week 52.
All subjects who continue on study drug will be evaluated for loss of 
therapeutic response from Week 30 through Week 52. Subjects failing 
to maintain at least a 20% improvement from Day 1 in TJC and SJC, 
(which is confirmed at 2 consecutive visits), will discontinue from 
investigational study drug therapy but will continue with study visits 
and assessments per protocol. All subjects meeting this criterion who 
discontinue from investigational study drug dosing are to receive 
standard of care treatment for their RA as determined by the 
investigator.
All subjects who have received at least one dose of study drug and exit 
the study early will complete an early termination (ET) visit at the time 
of study discontinuation, with a follow up visit four weeks after the last 
dose of study drug (Post Treatment Week 4), regardless of dosing
duration.
At completion of the 52-week dosing period, subjects who have not 
discontinued assigned study drug dosing, will be provided the option to 
enroll into a separate Long Term Extension (LTE) study 
(GS-US-417-0304).

b) ≥3 documented erosions on radiographs of the hands, wrists or 
feet by central reading if both antibodies (ie, RF, anti-CCP) are 
negative (based on central laboratory),
OR
c) Serum CRP ≥6 mg/L based on central laboratory value
5) Ongoing treatment with a stable dose of MTX as described below:
a) Use of oral MTX on a continuous basis for at least 12 weeks 
prior to Day 1 and on a stably prescribed dose of 
7.5-25 mg/weekly for at least 4 weeks prior to Day 1. Stable 
doses of <7.5 mg/week are allowed only in the presence of 
intolerance or toxicity to higher doses or where higher doses are
prohibited by the local label or local clinical practice. Doses 
>25 mg weekly are not permitted during the study.
b) Subjects should be receiving an adequate and prescribed stable 
dose of folic acid (≥5 mg/week total dose or as per local clinical
practice) which should be confirmed or initiated at Screening, 
and continued throughout the study. 
c) Subjects may use concomitant hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) 
≤400 mg/day or chloroquine ≤250 mg/day during the study with 
the prescription having been stable for at least 4 weeks prior to 
Day 1.
6) Subjects that have failed prior therapy with a bDMARD are not 
eligible to participate.  Subjects with prior exposure to one 
bDMARD may be enrolled (approximately 20% of total study 
population) if there is documented evidence of limited exposure 
(ie, less than 3 months) to the bDMARD .
Study Procedures/
Frequency:
Participating subjects will visit the clinical study center at Screening, 
Day 1, Weeks 2, 4, 8, 12, 14, 16, 20, 24, 26, 30, 36, 44, and 52 or ET. 
For those subjects not entering the LTE, a follow-up visit will be 
planned 4 weeks after the last dose of study drug (Post Treatment
Week 4). Consequently, subjects are planned to be in the study for 
approximately 60 weeks.
During the Screening period, the subject’s radiographs (hands, wrists, 
and feet) will be sent for blinded central scoring. In addition, 
information on demographics, medical history/concomitant diseases, 
prior and current RA medication will be collected. A physical 
examination,, a 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG), and clinical 
laboratory assessments will be conducted to determine the subject’s 
eligibility for study participation. The screening window may be 
extended to up to 42 days prior to the Day 1 visit for subjects who

Efficacy:
The primary endpoint is the proportion of subjects who achieve an 
ACR20 response at Week 12.
The key secondary endpoints are:

The proportion of subjects who achieve DAS28 (CRP)≤3.2 at 
Week 12 

Change from Baseline in the HAQ-DI score at Week 12

The proportion of subjects who achieve DAS28 (CRP)<2.6 at 
Week 24 

Change from Baseline in mTSS at Week 24
Pharmacokinetics:  
Plasma concentrations of filgotinib and its metabolite (GS-829845) will 
be analyzed. 
Statistical Methods:
The primary analysis set for efficacy analyses will be the Full Analysis 
Set (FAS), which includes all randomized subjects who received at 
least one dose of study drug.
The primary endpoint is the proportion of subjects who achieve an 
ACR20 response at Week 12. The primary analysis will consist of a 
superiority test of filgotinib 200 mg compared to placebo based on the 
ACR20 response rate at Week 12. Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel approach 
adjusting for the randomization stratification factors will be used for 
the hypothesis testing at the 2-sided 0.05-level. 
The following hypothesis testing will commence after the primary 
analysis reaches statistical significance, and will be tested according to 
the hierarchical testing principle at the 2-sided 0.05-level. If a null 
hypothesis is not rejected, formal sequential testing will be stopped and 
only nominal significance will be reported for the remaining 
hypotheses:
1) Superiority of filgotinib 200 mg compared to placebo based on the 
response rate of DAS28 (CRP)≤3.2 at Week 12
2) Superiority of filgotinib 200 mg compared to placebo based on the 
change from Baseline in HAQ-DI at Week 12
3) Superiority of filgotinib 200 mg compared to placebo based on the 
response rate of DAS28 (CRP)<2.6 at Week 24
4) Superiority of filgotinib 100 mg compared to placebo based on the 
ACR20 response rate at Week 12
5) Superiority of filgotinib 100 mg compared to placebo based on the 
response rate of DAS28 (CRP)≤3.2 at Week 12

9) Superiority of filgotinib 100 mg compared to placebo based on the 
change from Baseline in mTSS at Week 24
10) Non-inferiority of filgotinib 200 mg compared to adalimumab 
based on the response rate of DAS28 (CRP)≤3.2 at Week 12
11) Non-inferiority of filgotinib 100 mg compared to adalimumab 
based on the response rate of DAS28 (CRP)≤3.2 at Week 12 
If non-inferiority of at least one filgotinib dose compared to 
adalimumab based on the response rate of DAS28 (CRP)≤3.2 at 
Week 12 is demonstrated, then a superiority test of the respective 
filgotinib dose compared to adalimumab will be performed.
All continuous endpoints will be summarized using an 8-number 
summary (n, mean, standard deviation [SD], median, 1st quartile [Q1], 
3rd quartile [Q3], minimum, maximum) by treatment group. All 
categorical endpoints will be summarized by the number and 
percentage of subjects who meet the endpoint definition.
Safety endpoints will be analyzed by the number and percent of 
subjects with events or abnormalities for categorical values or 
8-number summary (n, mean, SD, median, Q1, Q3, minimum, 
maximum) for continuous data by treatment group.
Sample size is determined based on the superiority test of filgotinib 
200 mg compared to placebo on the change from Baseline in mTSS at 
Week 24. When assuming a difference of 0.4 between filgotinib and 
placebo on change from Baseline in mTSS at Week 24 and a common 
standard deviation of 1.85, 450 subjects in each of the filgotinib group 
and placebo control group are required to obtain 90% power at a 
2-sided 0.05-level.
A sample size of 450 subjects in each of the filgotinib groups and 
placebo control group will provide over 95% power to detect an 
increase in ACR20 response rate from 45% to 65% between the 
placebo control group and the filgotinib group respectively, using a 
2-sided 0.05-level test.

Based on {Liu et al 2014}, 450 subjects in each of the filgotinib 
200 mg and placebo group, and 300 subjects in the adalimumab group, 
will provide over 90% power at 2-sided 0.05 significance level to 
demonstrate that filgotinib 200 mg preserves more than 50% of the 
effect of adalimumab with respect to the response rate of DAS28 
(CRP)≤3.2 at Week 12, assuming both filgotinib 200 mg and 
adalimumab groups have similar response rates of DAS28 (CRP)≤3.2.  
Given this study has a placebo group, assay sensitivity can be 
established through a direct comparison of adalimumab to placebo.
In summary, the total sample size will be 1650 (450 subjects per group 
for filgotinib 100 mg, 200 mg and placebo groups; 300 subjects for 
active comparator group).
This study will be conducted in accordance with the guidelines of Good Clinical Practice (GCP) 
including archiving of essential documents.

INTRODUCTION
1.1.
Background
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic, systemic inflammatory disease that affects approximately 
1.3 million adults in the United States (US) {Helmick et al 2008}. Rheumatoid arthritis 
manifests principally as an attack on peripheral joints and may lead to marked destruction and 
deformity of joints, with considerable disability and impact on quality of life. It is characterized 
by the production of autoantibodies, synovial inflammation with formation of pannus tissue, and 
erosion of underlying cartilage and bone. Although people of any age can be affected, the onset 
of RA is most frequent between the ages of 40 and 50 years, and women are affected 3 times 
more often than men. While the cause of RA is still not completely understood, aberrant B-cell 
activation, T-cell co-stimulation, osteoclast differentiation, and cytokine release all have been 
implicated in its pathogenesis.
Treatment of RA is dependent on severity, the patient’s co–morbidities and initial response to 
therapy. Methotrexate (MTX) is a conventional disease modifying anti-rheumatic drug 
(DMARD) and continues to be the cornerstone of RA therapy {Singh et al 2012}. Patients with 
an inadequate response to conventional DMARD(s) are often treated with biologic therapies such 
as tumor necrosis factor inhibitors (TNFi) as an initial second line therapy. However, 
approximately 28% to 58% of RA patients with inadequate response to MTX fail TNFi as 
reviewed in {Redlich et al 2003}. In this setting, treatment guidelines recommend either
switching to another TNFi, alternate biologic, or to a small molecule drug {Singh et al 2012}. 
Despite significant advances in disease management in recent years, there remains a need for 
new treatments, since not all patients respond adequately to current therapies, have 
co-morbidities and some patients experience toxicities and/or intolerance that limit the use of 
approved therapies.
In November 2012, tofacitinib (Xeljanz®) became the first Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor to 
receive Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval for the treatment of adult patients with 
RA. Tofacitinib is a small molecule, has strong binding affinity for JAK1 and JAK3, and weaker 
affinity for JAK2. The extensive pre-clinical and clinical development programs demonstrated its 
mechanisms of action via anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive effects. The drug proved to 
be efficacious in treating the signs and symptoms of RA. However, the observed side-effects and 
risk profile of tofacitinib are similar to those of several existing anti-rheumatic agents with 
cytopenias, elevated levels of liver function enzymes, increased total cholesterol levels, with
increase in LDL typically exceeding those for HDL, and increased risk for infections including 
serious and opportunistic infections. At higher doses, tofacitinib treatment was associated with 
anemia, which is thought to be linked to inhibition of JAK2. 
While the pan JAK inhibitor tofacitinib has shown an early onset of action and long-term 
efficacy in RA as mono therapy and in combination with background conventional synthetic
disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (csDMARDs) therapy, dose levels were limited by side 
effects potentially mediated by its effect on JAK 2 and JAK 3. This highlights the need for more 
selective and targeted therapies with improved immunomodulatory and hematologic effects.

JAK1 is thought to be an integral part of RA pathogenesis due its role in transmitting 
inflammatory cytokine signaling. Hence, targeted inhibition of JAK1 has great potential for the 
treatment of RA with an improved safety and side effect profile. 
1.2.
Filgotinib
1.2.1.
General Information
Janus kinases are intracellular cytoplasmic tyrosine kinases (TYKs) that transduce cytokine 
signaling from membrane receptors through signal transducer and activator of transcription 
(STAT) to the nucleus of cells. JAK inhibitors block the signaling of various cytokines, growth 
factors, and hormones, including the pro-inflammatory cytokine interleukin (IL)-6. 
Four different types of JAKs are known, JAK1, JAK2, JAK3, and TYK2 which co-interact with 
different sets of membrane receptors. Inhibition of JAKs is a promising therapeutic option for a 
range of inflammatory conditions including RA and Crohn’s Disease (CD).
Filgotinib (GS-6034, formerly GLPG0634) is a potent and selective inhibitor of JAK1. The 
compound has shown good preliminary efficacy in RA and CD patients in Phase 2. No typical 
JAK2 side effects such as anemia were observed in clinical studies of up to 24 weeks duration. 
In humans, filgotinib is metabolized to form one major active metabolite GS-829845 (formerly 
G254445). Though the potency of this metabolite is lower than the parent molecule, the overall 
exposure and peak plasma concentration in humans is higher than seen in all tested animal 
species. As a consequence, dedicated pharmacology and toxicology studies have been performed 
with GS-829845.  Results from pharmacodynamics (PD) testing in healthy volunteers suggest 
that the clinical activity of filgotinib could result from the combination of the parent molecule 
and the metabolite.
For further information on filgotinib, refer to the current investigator’s brochure (IB).
1.2.2.
Nonclinical Pharmacology, Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, and 
Excretion (ADME) and Toxicology
Filgotinib and its metabolite, GS-829845 have been extensively characterized in nonclinical 
studies. This program includes cellular assays demonstrating potency and selectivity of the 
compound against JAK1; efficacy studies in rats and mice; repeat dose toxicity studies (up to 
26 weeks in the rat and 39 weeks in the dog), in vitro and in vivo safety pharmacology and 
genetic toxicology studies, and reproductive toxicology studies in rats and rabbits. Additional 
toxicology studies conducted include phototoxicity studies and dose-range finding studies in 
support of a definitive rat juvenile toxicity study and a 6 month carcinogenicity study in 
transgenic (TgrasH2) mice. A 2 year rat oral carcinogenicity study is ongoing.

1.2.2.1.
Primary and Secondary Pharmacology
Filgotinib is an adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-competitive inhibitor of JAK1. It is highly 
selective for inhibition of JAK1 over 451 other kinases evaluated in vitro. In cellular assays, it 
inhibits JAK/STAT-driven processes with half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) values 
from 179 nM onwards.  In human whole blood, JAK1 is inhibited by filgotinib with an IC50 of 
629 nM and exhibits approximately 30-fold selectivity over JAK2. Filgotinib demonstrated 
significant efficacy in the rat collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) model as well as in the mouse 
dextran sulphate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis model.
Metabolite GS-829845 exhibits a similar JAK1 selectivity profile but is approximately 10 to 
20-fold less potent than the parent filgotinib in in vitro assays. GS-829845 was as effective as 
filgotinib in the rat CIA model, but at doses that required a 10-fold higher exposure.
1.2.2.2.
Safety Pharmacology
Filgotinib and GS-829845 had no effects on the respiratory system and central nervous system 
(CNS) up to respectively 40- and 5-fold the exposure in RA subjects given filgotinib 200 mg q.d.
Filgotinib and GS-829845 had no relevant effects on cardiovascular parameters (human 
ether-a-gogo related gene [hERG] and dog telemetry studies), apart from a slight non-adverse 
increase in heart rate and arterial pressure with GS-829845 at exposures 7-fold that of the Cmax in 
subjects with RA treated with 200 mg q.d. filgotinib. There were no relevant effects on 
electrocardiogram (ECG) and QT.
1.2.2.3.
Nonclinical ADME
Filgotinib demonstrates good oral bioavailability in mice, rats, dogs, and minipigs but less in 
monkeys.  Plasma protein binding is low (< 70%) in all species, including humans.
The pharmacokinetics (PK) of filgotonib is generally dose proportional without gender 
differences.  No accumulation occurs with repeated dosing. The mean terminal half-life after oral 
administration is 4 and 5 hours (h) in rats and dogs, respectively.
In the rat, filgotinib showed a rapid and even distribution throughout the body.  High 
concentrations were observed only in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract and urinary bladder. 
Filgotinib does not penetrate into central nervous system (CNS) tissues.  The distribution of 
filgotinib indicates some affinity for melanin-containing tissues.
Excretion is nearly complete within 24 h (rat) and 48 h (dog) post-dosing.  In the rat, fecal and 
urinary excretion accounted for 40% and 53% of the administered dose, respectively, with a bile 
secretion of about 15%.  In the dog, fecal excretion was the primary route of excretion, 
accounting for 59% of the administered dose, with urinary excretion accounting for 25%.

In vitro metabolism studies in all species revealed one major metabolite (GS-829845). The 
formation of GS-829845 is mediated by carboxylesterases (CES) and is not dependent on 
cytochrome P450 (CYP).
In vitro experiments have shown that drug-drug interactions with filgotinib and GS-829845 are 
unlikely.  There is no inhibition or induction of CYPs or uridine 5’-disphosphate 
glucuronosyltransferases (UGTs), and no relevant inhibition of key drug transporters, including 
the organic anion transporters (OATs) involved in the renal elimination of MTX, by filgotinib or 
GS-829845.
1.2.2.4.
Nonclinical Toxicology
In repeat oral dose toxicity studies in both rats and dogs, the primary target tissues identified for 
filgotinib were the lymphoid tissues which is expected based on the pharmacology of JAK 
inhibition. Additional filgotinib-related findings were observed in the male reproductive organs 
of both species, and in the incisor teeth of rats only. Effects on the lymphoid system were fully 
reversible. Testicular toxicity demonstrated partial reversibility, however sperm counts remained 
low. A dose of 200 mg/day of filgotinib results in an estimated mean clinical AUC of 
2.80 μg∙h/mL, which represents an exposure margin of 2.3, 1.8, and 3.4-fold when considering 
the mean AUC in male dogs at the no-observed-effect-levels (NOELs) in the 26 week and
39 week chronic toxicity studies, and the 39 week targeted exposure toxicity study, respectively.
GS-829845-related findings in general repeat dose toxicity studies were similar to those of the 
parent filgotinib, however no testicular toxicity was noted following administration of 
GS-829845.
Filgotinib and GS-829845 were non-genotoxic when evaluated in the bacterial mutagenicity 
assay, the in vitro mouse lymphoma mutagenicity assay, and the rat bone marrow micronucleus 
assay.
In embryofetal development studies, filgotinib and GS-829845 caused embryolethality and 
teratogenicity in rats and rabbits at exposures similar to the human exposure at 200 mg q.d. of 
filgotinib in subjects with RA.  Administration of filgotinib did not affect female fertility but 
impaired fertility was observed in male rats at exposures approximately 15-fold the human 
exposure at 200 mg of filgotinib in subjects with RA. GS-829845 did not have any effects on 
fertility parameters in either male or female rats.
In an in vitro phototoxicity study in 3T3 cells, the metabolite GS-829845 was positive for 
phototoxic potential and results with filgotinib were equivocal. A follow-up in vivo rat 
phototoxicity assay revealed a lack of phototoxic potential for both compounds.
1.2.3.
Clinical Trials of Filgotinib
Comprehensive data from the Phase 1 and 2 programs are available to support development into 
Phase 3. As of January 2016, filgotinib has been administered to more than 150 healthy subjects, 
more than 1000 RA subjects, and more than 150 subjects with CD. A detailed description of all 
clinical studies can be found in the IB.

Phase 2b GLPG0634-CL-203, filgotinib with MTX in RA
In GLPG0634-CL-203, subjects with active RA on stable dose of MTX were randomized to
receive either placebo or one of three total daily doses of filgotinib (50 mg, 100 mg, or 200 mg)
on a once or twice daily schedule for 24 weeks. The primary objective of the study was to
evaluate the efficacy of different doses and dose regimens of filgotinib compared to placebo at 
Week 12.
The percentage of American College of Rheumatology (ACR) 20 responders was statistically
significantly higher in the 100 mg and 200 mg once daily, and 100 mg twice daily dose
groups at Week 12 and in the 100 mg and 200 mg once daily, and 50 mg and 100 mg
twice daily dose groups at Week 24. The percentage of ACR50 responders was statistically
significantly higher compared with placebo across all filgotinib dose groups and regimens at
both Weeks 12 and 24 (Table 1-1). The percentage of ACR70 responders was statistically
significantly higher in the filgotinib 200 mg once daily and 100 mg twice daily dose groups
compared with placebo at Week 12 and across all filgotinib dose groups and regimens at
Week 24. A dose-response was observed for all three parameters. In addition, 
theACR20response appeared to plateau at Week 8 in the majority of filgotinib treatment groups
and was maintained up to Week 24. At Week 24, the ACR50 response was maintained and the
ACR70 response continued to increase compared with Week 12.
Starting at week 2 response was observed for ACR20 and ACR50. No statistically significant

At Weeks 12 and 24 the mean decrease in Disease Activity Score for 28 joint count using 
c-reactive protein ( DAS28[CRP]) was statistically significantly greater across all filgotinib 
dose groups and regimens compared with placebo. A dose-response was observed. No
statistically significant difference was apparent between the once and twice daily regimens. At
Weeks 12 and 24, the mean decrease in Simplified Diagnostic Activity Index ( SDAI) and
Clinical Disease Activity Index (CDAI) score was statistically significantly greater across all
filgotinib dose groups and regimens compared with placebo (with the exception of filgotinib
50 mg once daily dose group at Week 12) . In addition, the mean SDAI and CDAI scores were
maintained after Week 12 in the 50 mg daily dose groups and continued to improve up to 
Week 24 in the 100 mg and 200 mg daily dose groups.
No unexpected safety findings were noted. Overall, no differences were observed in the 
incidence of treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs) reported for subjects in any of the 
dosing groups, including placebo, for the duration of the study. TEAEs were reported for 51.2% 
of “All Placebo Exposed” subjects (ie, all subjects combined who received placebo during either 
the entire 24 weeks or only during the first 12 weeks) and 51.5% of “All filgotinib Exposed” 
subjects (ie, all subjects combined who received filgotinib during either the entire 24 weeks or 
only during the last 12 weeks, irrespective of dose).
A total of 15 subjects had ≥1 serious TEAE; 4 subjects in the placebo group (4.7%) and 
11 subjects (2.0%) in one of the filgotinib groups. One of these subjects with ≥1 serious TEAE, 
who received filgotinib 100 mg twice daily with concurrent MTX, died during the second 
12 weeks of the study period due to pneumonia and septic shock. Out of the 15 subjects with a 
serious TEAE, 11 subjects had a serious TEAE due to which the study medication was stopped 
and the subject discontinued the study. A total of 23 subjects had ≥1 AE leading to permanent 
discontinuation of the study medication and the study; 2 subjects (2.3%) in the placebo group 
and 21 subjects (3.9%) in one of the filgotinib groups (including a subject in the filgotinib 
100 mg q.d. group who had a pre-dosing AE which was ongoing throughout the study, for which 
the study medication was permanently discontinued). Most of the serious TEAEs and the AEs 
leading to discontinuation (by preferred term) were experienced by a single subject.
For the duration of the study, the most common (≥10%) TEAEs reported by SOC in subjects 
from both the placebo and filgotinib dosing groups, were Infections and Infestations and 
Gastrointestinal disorders. There were no differences between subjects who received placebo or 
filgotinib in the severity of TEAEs (most TEAEs were mild or moderate; severe TEAEs were 
observed in 1.2% of “All Placebo Exposed” subjects and in 2.2% of “All filgotinib Exposed” 
subjects). Treatment-related TEAEs were generally reported more often for subjects in the 
filgotinib dosing groups than in the placebo group (9.3% with placebo and 20.3% with 
filgotinib); however, within the different filgotinib dosing groups, no clear dose relationships 
were observed.
Six serious infections were reported (1 in placebo arm, 5 in filgotinib arm). All 6 serious and 
one additional non-serious infection in the filgotinib group led to dosing discontinuation. Up to 
Week 24, herpes zoster infections were observed in 5 subjects (1 placebo treated patient and 
4 filgotinib). No cases of tuberculosis, opportunistic infections, lymphoma, or cancer were 
reported throughout the 24-week dosing period.

Laboratory data were consistent with prior phase 2 studies and no new safety findings were 
observed from laboratory data. A summary of laboratory findings of interest, including 
hemoglobin, neutrophil, lymphocyte, creatinine, lipid, and hormone data are summarized below. 
Up to Week 12, small increases were observed in mean hemoglobin concentrations in the 
filgotinib 200 mg daily dose groups (increase of 4.4 g/L from baseline in the filgotinib 100 mg
bid group). Thereafter, hemoglobin mean concentrations appeared to plateau and remain stable 
until Week 24 (increase of 4.9 g/L from baseline in the filgotinib 100 mg bid group). 
Up to Week 4, dose-dependent decreases were observed in mean absolute neutrophil counts in 
the filgotinib treatment groups. Mean absolute neutrophil counts appeared to plateau and 
remained stable until Week 24. No decreases in mean absolute lymphocyte counts were 
observed, including lymphocyte subsets. 
Up to Week 4, dose-dependent decreases were observed in mean absolute platelet counts in the 
filgotinib treatment groups. Mean absolute platelet counts appeared to plateau and remained 
stable. Dose-dependent increases in the filgotinib groups were observed in mean creatinine 
concentrations during the first 4 weeks of the study for most filgotinib treatment groups (up to 
Week 8 for the filgotinib 100 mg bid group) that subsequently plateaued and remained stable up 
to Week 24. 
Up to Week 4, dose-dependent increases were observed in mean concentrations of total 
cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, and triglycerides in all 
filgotinib treatment groups. All these lipid parameters further increased up to Week 8 in the 
filgotinib 200 mg daily dose groups. Thereafter, these increases appeared to plateau and 
maintained at stable mean concentrations up to Week 24. At Week 24, mean increases were 
observed of 0.7 mmol/L in total cholesterol, 0.3 mmol/L in LDL cholesterol, 0.3 mmol/L in HDL 
cholesterol, and 0.1 mmol/L in triglycerides in the filgotinib 100 mg bid group.
In male subjects, small non dose-dependent increases were observed in total and free testosterone 
during the study (at Week 24, mean increases were 3.4 nmol/L for total and 51.7 pmol/L for free 
testosterone in the filgotinib 100 mg bid group). For FSH, inhibin B, LH, and prolactin, small 
changes (both increases and decreases) were observed during the study, without any trends of 
larger changes in male subjects of one or more of the different treatment groups.
GLPG0634-CL-204, Filgotinib administered as monotherapy in RA Subjects
The primary objective of study GLPG0634-CL-204 was to evaluate the efficacy of three doses
of filgotinib q.d. compared to placebo at Week 12.
As shown in Table 1-2, the percentage of ACR20 and ACR50 responders at week 12 was
statistically significantly higher across all filgotinib dose groups compared with placebo. The
percentage of ACR70 responders in the filgotinib 100 mg and 200 mg once daily dose groups
was statistically significantly higher compared with placebo. At Week 24, the ACR50
response was maintained and the ACR70 response showed continued improvement . An early
onset of response was observed for ACR20 (from Week 1 in the filgotinib 200 mg once daily

200 mg once daily dose group and Week 4 across all other filgotinib dose groups), and ACR70
(Week 4 in the filgotinib 200 mg once daily dose group). The time to ACR20/50/70 response
was shorter in all filgotinib dose groups compared with placebo.

At Week 12, the mean decrease in DAS28(CRP) was statistically significantly greater across all 
filgotinib dose groups compared with placebo. At Week 24, the mean decrease in
DAS28(CRP) was maintained in the 50 mg once daily dose group and showed a small 
improvement in the highest dose groups. In addition, at Week 12, the percentage of subjects
with DAS28(CRP) remission was higher across all filgotinib dose groups compared with
placebo. Differences vs. placebo were not statistically significant for any of the filgotinib dose 
groups. The number of subjects with DAS28(CRP) < 2.6 and < 3.2 were higher across all
filgotinib dose groups compared with placebo at Week 12; differences vs. placebo were
statistically significant for the filgotinib 200 mg once daily dose group.
Safety data revealed no differences in the incidence of TEAEs reported for subjects in any of the 
treatment groups, including placebo, during both the first 12 weeks of treatment and the full 
24 weeks of treatment. TEAEs were reported for 38.9% of “All Placebo Exposed” subjects 
(ie, all subjects combined who received placebo during the first 12 weeks) and 41.3% of “All 
filgotinib Exposed” subjects (ie, all subjects combined who received filgotinib during either the

No deaths were reported and a total of 9 subjects had a serious TEAE; 1 subject (1.4%) during 
placebo dosing and 8 subjects (2.9%) during filgotinib dosing. No serious TEAE (by preferred 
term) was experienced by more than 1 subject, and all subjects recovered from their serious 
TEAEs. Out of the 9 subjects with a serious TEAE, 3 subjects had a serious TEAE for which the 
study medication was stopped and the subject discontinued the study. There were no differences 
in incidences of AEs leading to discontinuation among all the different dosing groups, including 
placebo. A total of 11 subjects had ≥1 TEAE leading to discontinuation of the study medication; 
4 subjects (5.6%) during placebo dosing and 7 subjects (2.5%) during filgotinib dosing.
During the whole study, the most common TEAEs reported by System Organ Class in subjects 
from both the placebo and filgotinib treatment groups, were ‘Infections and Infestations’ and 
‘Gastrointestinal disorders’. There were no differences between subjects who received placebo or 
filgotinib in the severity of TEAEs (most TEAEs were mild or moderate; severe TEAEs were 
observed in 1.4% of “All Placebo Exposed” subjects and in 1.1% of “All filgotinib Exposed” 
subjects). Treatment-related TEAEs were generally reported more often for subjects in the 
filgotinib treatment groups than in the placebo group (9.7% with placebo and 16.7% with 
filgotinib); however, within the different filgotinib treatment group, no clear dose relationships 
were observed.
Low numbers of infections were reported as serious (4 subjects with filgotinib) or led to 
discontinuation of the study medication (2 serious infections; ie, cellulitis and pneumonia) were 
observed during the study. Up to Week 24, 1 subject (filgotinib 50 mg q.d. group) had a herpes 
zoster infection. No cases of tuberculosis, opportunistic infections, lymphoma, or cancer were 
reported throughout the 24-week treatment period.
Laboratory data were consistent with prior studies and no new safety findings were observed.

Rationale for this Study
Over the last decade, changes in RA treatment strategies, accompanied by advances in drug 
development and the addition of targeted biological therapies, have greatly improved the 
outcomes for subjects with RA. Despite these developments, therapeutic challenges remain. The
current conventional and biologic disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (bDMARDs) may be
ineffective or produce only partial responses in some subjects and may be associated with 
significant safety and tolerability concerns. There is a medical need for simple, orally 
administered therapies with novel and targeted mechanisms of action that can effectively 
improve the disease course while being safe and well-tolerated.

Filgotinib is an orally administered, small molecule inhibitor of JAK1, an intracellular tyrosine 
kinase dysregulated in subjects with inflammatory disorders including RA. Filgotinib has 
demonstrated clinical activity and a favorable safety and tolerability profile in Phase 2 studies in 
subjects with moderately to severely active RA.
1.4.1.
Rationale for Study Design
GS-US-417-0301 is a Phase 3 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled and 
active-comparator study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of filgotinib in subjects with 
active RA who have an inadequate response to MTX therapy (MTX-IR). Filgotinib will be 
administered orally for up to 52 weeks. The objectives of the study are to evaluate the efficacy of 
filgotinib on: the signs and symptoms of RA, on physical function, radiographic progression, 
work productivity, fatigue, and quality of life. In addition, the safety, tolerability, and 
pharmacokinetics (PK) of filgotinib will be assessed.
All subjects in this study are required to maintain background therapy with MTX. Methotrexate 
is the most commonly prescribed first line csDMARD in the treatment of moderately to severely 
active RA and has been shown to reduce the signs and symptoms of disease as well as to inhibit
radiographic progression {Lopez-Olivo et al 2014}. The placebo control used in this study will 
allow assessment of the filgotinib safety and tolerability profile and establish the efficacy 
contribution that filgotinib may provide in combination with MTX. Nonresponders at Week 14,
as defined in protocol Section 3.2, will discontinue investigational therapy but will continue with 
study visits and assessments per protocol. All subjects who discontinue from investigational 
therapy, are to receive standard of care treatment for their RA as determined by the investigator. 
The duration of placebo will be limited.  All subjects in the placebo arm will be reallocated 
1:1 to 100 mg or 200 mg of filgotinib at Week 24. Reallocation of treatment assignment at 
Week 24 will be performed in a blinded manner. Given the slowly progressive nature of RA, 
14 weeks of placebo in Non-responders on accepted background therapy is considered both 
clinically and ethically appropriate and allows an acceptable time period in which to assess initial 
response to therapy. The use of placebo is critical in evaluating subject reported and subjective 
outcomes, which can be highly variable and influenced by placebo therapy. The placebo effect is 
well-established in RA studies and inclusion of the placebo arm is critical to evaluation of the 
overall risk:benefit profile of added filgotinib therapy. Finally, the provision of best supportive 
care in the context of the trial, as well as the limited duration and eventual opportunity for 
subjects to transition to filgotinib, make the use of placebo ethically acceptable for the specified 
duration.
This study includes an active comparator, adalimumab, a monoclonal antibody directed against 
tumor nectrosis factor α (TNF-α). The inclusion of the active comparator will allow comparison
of the efficacy and safety of filgotinib to an approved and frequently prescribed product 
indicated for use in patients who have an inadequate response to MTX therapy.
The study eligibility criteria are consistent with those of recent clinical trials evaluating novel 
investigational treatments for RA. Subjects should meet the 2010 ACR/ European League 
Against Rheumatism (EULAR) criteria for RA. Subjects are required to have active disease

defined as ≥6 swollen and ≥6 tender joints at both Screening and Day 1. In addition, subjects are 
required to have one of the following: an elevated CRP, or the presence of either 3 or more 
documented joint erosions on radiographs if seronegative, or 1 documented joint erosions on 
radiographs if seropositive for anti-CCP antibody or RF. The study duration of up to 52 weeks 
allows sufficient time for demonstrating the safety and tolerability of therapy, reduction in
disease activity, and confirmation that clinical benefit is sustained over time.
1.4.2.
Rationale for the Outcome Measures
Safety and tolerability will be assessed by the evaluation of adverse events (AEs), selected 
clinical laboratory parameters, vital signs, physical examinations, and ECGs, all of which are 
standard safety evaluations in clinical research studies.
The ACR20, ACR50, and ACR70 responses and the DAS28 (CRP) are considered reliable 
measures of response to treatment and disease activity, respectively in subjects with RA. 
Comparison between the treatment groups of the proportions of subjects achieving an ACR20 
response at Week 12 and the proportions of subjects achieving low disease activity in 
DAS28 (CRP) allows for interpretation of a clinically meaningful response and these measures 
have been shown to achieve high discriminatory capacity.
Evaluation of the continuous outcome measures of DAS28 (CRP) and American College of 
Rheumatology N (ACR-N) as secondary endpoints enable the demonstration of improvement 
and magnitude of benefit. The EULAR response criteria classify subjects as non-, moderate-, or 
good responders depending on the extent of change and the level of disease activity reached. 
These response criteria are useful when describing clinically meaningful therapeutic results. The
CDAI and the SDAI have been widely used in clinical studies to demonstrate the impact of a
study drug on controlling disease activity in patients with RA.
Assessing quality of life (measured by the Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness 
Therapy-Fatigue [FACIT-Fatigue], 36-item short form health survey [SF-36], and EuroQol 
5-Dimension [EQ-5D]) at Day 1 and during the course of study treatment provides insight into 
the effects on modifying RA disease course and impact on daily life. Treatment satification will 
be assessed by using the Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medication (TSQM) at Day 1 
and during the couse of the study. Assessing the change in economic impact (Work Productivity 
and Activity Impairment [WPAI] and Healthcare Resource Utilization) of RA over the course of 
the study provides insight into the subject’s ability to work and other daily activities as well as 
the impact on the burden of healthcare resources.
Radiographs have been widely used in assessing structural joint damage associated with RA and 
are therefore essential in evaluating the efficacy of a study drug. Reduction in radiographic 
evidence of structural damage progression is an important predictor of long-term benefits in 
delaying or preventing the progression to disability related to RA. While X-ray remains the 
widely accepted method for assessing progression of structural joint damage, evaluation by MRI 
may provide specific advantages and an exploratory assessment of structural joint damage by 
MRI will also be made during the study.  Radiologic data using validated scoring methods will 
be used to demonstrate efficacy in this domain.

Rationale for the Choice of Dose and Dosing Interval
Enrolled subjects will be randomized to receive filgotinib (100 mg or 200 mg), active 
comparator (adalimumab), or placebo. The 100 mg and 200 mg q.d. dose regimens of filgotinib
are based on efficacy and safety data from the Phase 1 and 2 studies, and are supported by 
non-clinical safety studies.
In seven  Phase 1 studies conducted in healthy subjects (GPLG0634-CL-101, -102, -103, -104, 
-105, -107, and -110), filgotinib administered at doses up to 450 mg q.d. for up to 10 days were 
safe and well tolerated.
In the two Phase 2a studies in subjects with RA (Study GLPG0634-CL-201 and -202), 
dosingwith filgotinib was well tolerated and achieved a high level of efficacy at a 200 mg daily 
dose (ACR20 response of 75-92% at Week 4). Administration of a higher filgotinib dose 
(300 mg) did not demonstrate greater efficacy, therefore, the highest dose to be tested in this 
study will be 200 mg q.d.
In two Phase 2b studies, filgotinib at total daily doses of 50 mg, 100 mg, or 200 mg, 
administered in addition to a background therapy with MTX (GLPG0634-CL-203) or as 
monotherapy (GLPG0634-CL-204) was shown to be safe and efficacious in subjects with 
moderately to severely active RA who had an inadequate response to MTX alone(Section 1.2.3).
Exposure-response analysis based on data from all Phase 2 studies indicated a dose-dependent 
increase in efficacy (ACR20/50/70, DAS28[CRP]), with a plateau at the 200 mg total daily dose 
on the dose-response curve. Additionally, in Study GLPG0634-CL-203, no statistically 
significant difference in efficacy was observed at 200 mg daily dose, administered as 200 mg
q.d. or 100 mg b.i.d. These results are consistent with the relationship observed between 
filgotinib exposures and pSTAT1 activation (ex-vivo) following single and multiple filgotinib 
doses, where maximal inhibition of pSTAT1 (~78%) was achieved at or above 200 mg total 
daily dose and intermediate inhibition (~47%) at 100 mg {Namour et al 2015}. 
Safety data collected across Phase 2 clinical studies showed no dose-dependent trends in the 
incidence of AEs or SAEs, including infections, or laboratory abnormalities with the exception 
of  a numerical increase in select gastrointestinal AEs (eg, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and 
upper abdominal pain). This numerical increase  was observed in the 200 mg compared to the 
100 mg dose.  However, the overall frequency was low and clinical relevance is unknown. 
Filgotinib, administered at a dose of 100 mg or 200 mg daily was found to be safe and well 
tolerated. The safety profile was consistent with that observed for an immunomodulatory 
compound administered to subjects with RA. 
Overall, the 100 mg and 200 mg once-daily dose regimens have been proposed based on the 
safety and efficacy data from the Phase 2 studies in RA and the observed plateau in the pSTAT1 
response which indicates doses above 200 mg are unlikely to add additional benefit. Inclusion of 
multiple doses in the proposed Phase 3 trials will enable establishment of an appropriate nominal 
dose for the treatment of RA and determine the regimen with the most favorable risk:benefit 
profile in these populations.

Risk/Benefit Assessment for the Study
As of January 2016,  Filgotinib has been administered to more than 150 healthy subjects as 
single doses ranging from 1 to 200 mg, and as multiple doses at 25 to 100 mg twice daily, and 
200, 300, and 450 mg daily for 10 days. In addition, filgotinib has been administered to more 
than 1000 RA subjects and more than 150 subjects with Crohn’s Disease at daily doses ranging 
from 50-200 mg. In general, filgotinib has been safe and well tolerated in all populations studied.
Nonclinical studies in rats and dogs identified the testes and lymphoid tissue as target organs for 
filgotinib in long term repeat-dose toxicity studies. In both species, histopathological changes in 
the testes included germ cell depletion and degeneration, with reduced sperm content and 
increased cell debris in the epididymis and reduction in fertility in rats. The dog was determined 
to be the most sensitive species. A dose of 200 mg/day of filgotinib results in an estimated mean 
clinical AUC of 2.8 μg∙h/mL, which represents an exposure margin of 2.3, 1.8, and 3.4-fold 
when considering the mean AUC in male dogs at the no-observed-effect-levels (NOELs) in the
26 week and 39 week chronic toxicity studies, and the 39 week targeted exposure toxicity study, 
respectively. Decreased lymphocytes observed in nonclinical studies have not been shown in 
clinical studies.
Filgotinib has shown an increased risk of embryofetal malformations at exposures similar to 
human doses; the use of highly effective contraception in the subject population will be 
implemented in the study to mitigate this risk.
No clinically relevant impact on cardiovascular parameters (including vital signs and ECG), 
respiratory or neurologic function has been observed in Phase 1 and 2 trials of filgotinib.  Across 
phase 2 trials in RA, filgotinib was well tolerated.In the RA studies (including the open label 
extension Darwin 3), infections were reported more commonly in the filgotinib groups, including 
serious infections leading to hospitalization, and even death. The most common system organ 
classes (SOC) with AEs were infectionsand infestations, and gastrointestional disorders. Dose 
dependent decreases in the phase 2b studies were observed in mean neutrophil counts and 
platelet counts (but mean changes in both remained within normal laboratory reference ranges), 
and there were no decreases in lymphocytes or lymphocyte subsets. Hemoglobin levels slightly 
improved (increased) with filgotinib treatment, confirming that no anemia was induced. Mild and 
clinically insignificant serum creatinine increases were noted in both Phase 2b studies, with 
stabilization by Week 24.  Neutrophil decreases (in the RA population) and a potential increased 
risk of infection may be considered risks consistent with the mechanism of JAK inhibition.  
Overall clinical findings and laboratory changes are consistent with selective JAK1 inhibition 
and based on Phase 2 data the expected benefit of using filgotinib as proposed in this study is 
considered to outweigh any associated risks.
Adalimumab is a TNFα inhibitor that is indicated and commonly used in the target population of 
this trial with well established safety and efficacy profile (Humira US PI, Humira EU SmPC). 
The dose and duration of adalimumab treatment proposed in this study are in line with posology 
approved globally (Humira US PI, Humira EU SmPC).

Risks asscoated with the use of adalimumab are well characterized, and are described in 
approved local product information. Adalimumab is associated with an increased risk for 
developing serious infections that may lead to hospitalization or death. Opportunistic infections 
due to bacterial, mycobacterial, invasive fungal, viral, parasitic, or other opportunistic pathogens 
have been reported with TNFα inhibitors. Reactivation of latent TB has been reported. All 
subjects will be tested for TB before study start as outlined in the exclusion criteria and will be 
carefully monitored for signs and symptoms of infection during and after the study. Study drug 
will be discontinued for serious infections as outlined in section 3.5. An increase of non-
melanoma skin cancers, hematologic cancers and a potential increase of other cancers has been 
reported with use of TNFα inhibitors. Subjects will undergo regular assessments, including 
physical examination and haematological assessments. 
TNFα inhibitors are commonly used as first line therapy in MTX-IR RA patients. Their efficacy 
in this patient population has been well established. Overall, the benefit of using adalimumab as 
proposed in this study is considered to outweigh any associated risks.  
An independent data monitoring committee (DMC) appointed to monitor the study (with an 
interim safety analysis after the first 100 subjects complete 12 weeks of treatment) will provide 
an additional level of risk mitigation.
The overall risk:benefit balance of this study is considered favorable. For additional information 
about the risks of filgotinib, reference is made to the investigator brochure.

Study Design
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo- and active-controlled, Phase 3 study in adult male 
and female subjects with active RA who have an inadequate response to MTX. The study is 
designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of filgotinib as well as its effect on
patient-reported outcomes, including work productivity, fatigue, and quality of life. In addition, 
PK will be assessed.
Adult male and female subjects with active RA will be screened to determine eligibility as per 
the inclusion and exclusion criteria (see Section 4.2 and 4.3, respectively). The Screening period 
will be up to 28 days.  The screening window may be extended to up to 42 days prior to the 
Day 1 visit for subjects who require repeat collection of radiographs.
Written informed consent must be obtained before any study-related procedures take place. 
During the Screening period, following signing of the informed consent form (ICF), radiographs 
(hands, wrists, and feet) will be sent for central review for confirmation of the number of 
documented joint erosions. Note that radiographs need to be sent for central review as soon as 
possible after capture and prior to Day 1 to allow for central reading and confirmation of the 
joint erosions for eligibility purposes. 
Subjects will be randomized in a 3:3:2:3 ratio to filgotinib 200 mg, filgotinib 100 mg, active 
comparator (adalimumab), or matching placebo controls administered for up to 52 weeks in a 
double blind fashion.
At Week 14, subjects who have not achieved a 20% improvement from Day 1 in both swollen 
joint count (SJC) and tender joint count (TJC) will discontinue investigational therapy but will 
continue with study visits and assessments per protocol. All subjects who discontinue from 
investigational therapy, are to receive standard of care  treatment for their RA as determined by 
the investigator. At Week 24 all subjects assigned to placebo + MTX will be reassigned 1:1 to 
either filgotinib 100 mg q.d. or 200 mg q.d. in addition to MTX in a blinded fashion and will 
continue the study through Week 52.

All subjects will be evaluated for loss of therapeutic response from Week 30 through the 
Week 52 study visit. Subjects failing to maintain at least a 20% improvement from Day 1 in TJC 
and SJC (as confirmed at 2 consecutive visits) will discontinue investigational therapy but will 
continue with study visits and assessments. All subjects who discontinue from investigational 
therapy are to receive standard of care treatment for their RA as determined by the investigator. 
Subjects who have received at least one dose of study drug and choose to prematurely terminate 
study participation for any reason should complete an ET visit at the time of study 
discontinuation, as well as a post dosing visit four weeks after the last dose of study drug 
(post treatment Week 4) regardless of dosing duration.
At completion of the 52-week treatment period, subjects (who did not discontinue assigned study 
drug or have not met criteria for loss of therapeutic response) will be provided the option to enter 
a Long Term Extension (LTE) study (GS-US-417-0304).
Subjects or trained caregivers will self-administer the adalimumab (or adalimumab placebo) 
injections and will not be asked to return to the clinical study center specifically to receive these 
injections. Subject (or caregiver) training on this self-injection will take place at Day 1 and can 
be repeated as required.
For those subjects not entering the LTE, a follow-up visit will be completed at Post Treatment 
Week 4. 
To enhance the safety monitoring during the study, a data monitoring committee (DMC) 
consisting of independent experts will be convened to periodically review the accumulating 
safety data for the study. In addition, a cardiovascular safety endpoint adjudication committee 
(CV-SEAC) will be convened to periodically review and adjudicate all possible major 
cardiovascular events (MACE).
The assessments planned to be performed at each visit are detailed in the study procedures table 
(Appendix 2). A schedule of the study design is provided below.

to Follow-up visit or entry into the LTE); the duration of dosing is up to 52 weeks.
3.5.
Criteria for Interruption or Discontinuation of Study Treatment
3.5.1.
Study drug interruption considerations:
The Gilead Medical Monitor should be consulted prior to study drug interruption when 
medically feasible. 
Study drug interruption should be considered in the following circumstances; prior to resumption 
of study drug, the investigator should discuss the case with the Gilead medical monitor:

Intercurrent illness that would, in the judgment of the investigator, affect assessments of 
clinical status to a significant degree.   

Subject is scheduled for elective or emergency surgery (excluding minor skin procedures 
under local or no anesthesia); timing of study drug pausing should be determined in 
consultation with the Gilead medical monitor.   

Any subject who develops a new infection during the study should undergo prompt and 
complete diagnostic testing appropriate for an immuncompromised individual, and the 
subject should be closely monitored.
NOTE: During the time of study drug interruption for any of the above, the subject may
continue to have study visits and to take part in procedures and assessments, if deemed 
medically appropriate by the investigator.
3.5.2.
Study drug discontinuation considerations:
The Gilead Medical Monitor should be consulted prior to study drug discontinuation when 
medically feasible. 
Study medication should be permanently discontinued in the following instances:

Any opportunistic infection

Any serious infection that requires antimicrobial therapy or hospitalization, or any infection 
that meets SAE reporting criteria. 

Complicated herpes zoster infection (with multi-dermatomal, disseminated, ophthalmic, or 
CNS involvement)

Evidence of active HCV during the study, as evidenced by HCV RNA positivity



Discontinuation of the study at the request of Gilead, a regulatory agency or an institutional 
review board or independent ethics committee (IRB/IEC)

Subject use of prohibited concurrent therapy may trigger study drug discontinuation; 
consultation should be made with the Gilead medical monitor.

Laboratory criteria:
After becoming aware of any of the below described abnormal laboratory changes occurring at 
any one time, an unscheduled visit (ie sequential visit) should occur to retest within 3 to 7 days
(except creatinine, which should be retested 7-14 days apart). 
2 sequential neutrophil counts <750 neutrophils/mm3 (SI: <0.75x109 cells/L) 
2 sequential platelet counts <75,000 platelets/mm3 (SI: <75.0x109 cells/L)
2 sequential AST or ALT elevations >3xULN and ≥1 total bilirubin value >2xULN or
accompanied by symptoms consistent with hepatic injury.1
2 sequential AST or ALT elevations >5xULN
2 sequential values for estimated creatinine clearance <35 mL/min based on the Cockroft Gault 
formulaSubjects who permanently discontinue study medication for any reason are to receive
standard of care treatment for their RA as determined by the investigator, and those subjects
should be encouraged to continue study, if deemed medically appropriate by the investigator.
Subjects who permanently discontinue study medication for  pregnancy should not continue in
the study; if there are any questions regarding permanent discontinuation, these should be
discussed with the Sponsor.
                                                
1 In each case, there is a need for additional investigations, such as review of ethanol, recreational drug and dietary 
supplement consumption; testing for acute hepatitis A, B or C infection and biliary tract imaging should be promptly 
discussed with the study Medical Monitor

Subjects withdrawing from the study should complete ET and Post Treatment Week 4 visits.
Subjects are free to withdraw from the study at any time without providing reason(s) for
withdrawal and without prejudice to further treatment. The reason(s) for withdrawal will be
documented in the electronic case report form (eCRF).
Reasonable efforts will be made to contact subjects who are lost to follow-up. All contacts and 
contact attempts must be documented in the subject’s file.
The Sponsor has the right to terminate the study at any time in case of safety concerns or if 
special circumstances concerning the study medication or the company itself occur, making 
further treatment of subjects impossible. In this event, the investigator(s) and relevant authorities 
will be informed of the reason for study termination.
3.6.
End of Study
End of Study is defined as when the last subject has completed 52 weeks of dosing plus the 4 
week post treatment visit or has entered the LTE. 
3.7.
Post Study Care
All subjects who meet criteria for clinical response (per protocol), and who complete 52 weeks 
of study assessments will be offered an opportunity to participate in a LTE study (GS-US-417-
0304). Subjects who discontinue early from the main study, or switch to standard of care 
treatment during the study, are not eligible for the LTE. The long term care of subjects who do 
not qualify or choose not to participate in the LTE will remain the responsibility of their primary 
treating physician.

INVESTIGATIONAL MEDICINAL PRODUCTS
5.1.
Randomization, Blinding and Treatment Codes
An Interactive Web Response System (IWRS) will be employed to manage subject 
randomization and treatment assignments. It is the responsibility of the investigator to ensure that 
the subject is eligible for the study prior to enrollment. Subjects will be assigned a Screening 
number at the time of consent. 
5.1.1.
Procedures for Breaking Treatment Codes
In the event of a medical emergency where breaking the blind is required to provide medical care 
to the subject, the investigator may obtain the individual subject treatment assignment directly
from the IWRS system. Gilead recommends, but does not require, that the investigator contact 
the Gilead Medical Monitor before breaking the blind. Treatment assignments should remain 
blinded unless that knowledge is necessary to determine emergency medical care for the subject. 
The rationale for unblinding must be clearly explained in source documentation and on the 
electronic case report form (eCRF), along with the date on which the treatment assignment was 
unblinded. The investigator is requested to contact the Gilead Medical Monitor promptly in case 
of any treatment unblinding.
Blinding of study treatment is critical to the integrity of this Phase 3 clinical trial and therefore, if 
a subject’s treatment assignment is disclosed to the investigator, the subject will have study drug
discontinued. 
Gilead Drug Safety and Public Health (DSPH) may independently unblind cases for expedited 
reporting of suspected unexpected serious adverse reactions (SUSARs) to Regulatory 
Authorities.

Randomization 
Subjects will be randoinly allocated to a dosing group according to a pre-specified randomization 
scheme prepared by an independent statistician. Upon qualification for the study, subjects will be 
randomized using a computerized IWRS system. Randomization will be stratified by geographic 
region, prior exposure to bDMARD, and presence of RF or anti-CCP Ab at screening. 
Subjects with prior exposure to a TNFa, inhibitor (with the exception of adalimumab) or a 
bDMARD for RA may be enrolled in the study (up to 20% of the enrolled population) if they did 
not fail previous TNFa, inhibitor or bDMARD due to lack of efficacy and ifthere is documented 
evidence of limited exposure (less than 3 months). 
For each subject at each visit, the clinic will contact the IWRS system and for the appropriate kit 
number to be dispensed. The kit will contain the relevant study diugs for the period until the next 
dispensation visit.

An independent joint assessor with adequate training and experience in performing joint 
assessments will be designated at each study site to perform all joint assessments, and should be 
blinded to the other study assessments performed on that day. The joint assessor should 
preferably be a rheumatologist; however, if a rheumatologist is not available, it should be a 
health care worker with experience in performing joint assessments. The assessor should remain 
the same throughout the study per subject, as much as possible. It is required that the designated 
joint assessor identify an appropriate back up assessor to provide coverage if the designated joint 
assessor is absent.
6.7.1.2.
Subject’s Global Assessment of Disease Activity
The Subject’s Global assessment of Disease Activity will be performed at the time points 
indicated in the study procedures table (Appendix 2). The Subject’s Global assessment of 
Disease Activity should be completed before any other study procedures
The Subject’s Global Assessment of Disease Activity will be recorded on a 0-100 mm visual 
analog scale (VAS), with 0 indicating “no arthritis” and 100 indicating “severe arthritis”.
6.7.1.3.
Physician’s Global Assessment of Disease Activity
The Physician’s Global assessment of Disease Activity will be performed at the time points 
indicated in the study procedures table (Appendix 2).
The Physician’s Global Assessment of Disease Activity will be recorded on a 0-100 mm VAS, 
with 0 indicating “no disease activity” and 100 indicating “maximum disease activity”. The 
evaluating physician and the subject should complete the global assessments independently of 
each other.
6.7.1.4.
Serum CRP
The subject’s serum CRP will be measured at the time points indicated in the study procedures 
table (Appendix 2).

Health Assessment Questionnaire – Disability Index and Pain Scale
The functional status of the subject will be assessed using the HAQ-DI at the time points 
indicated in the study procedures table (Appendix 2) and should be completed before any other 
study procedures. The HAQ-DI is a 20-question instrument that assesses the degree of difficulty 
a person has in accomplishing tasks in 8 domains (dressing, arising, eating, walking, hygiene, 
reaching, gripping and errands/chores). Responses are scored on a 4-point Likert scale from 0, 
indicating no difficulty, to 3, indicating inability to perform a task in that area. The need for aids 
or help from another person will also be recorded. The HAQ-DI total score ranges from 0 to 
3 with higher scores indicating greater dysfunction.

As part of the HAQ-DI, subjects will be asked to assess their average pain during the last week 
on a 0-100 mm VAS, with 0 indicating “no pain” and 100 indicating “severe pain”. This 
assessment should be completed before the joint examination. This pain score will be used to 
drive the ACR20/50/70.
6.7.1.6.
FACIT-Fatigue Scale
The FACIT-Fatigue (version 4) will be completed at the time points indicated in the study 
procedures table (Appendix 2) and should be completed before any other study procedures where 
local language questionaires are available.
The FACIT-Fatigue scale measures an individual’s level of fatigue during their usual daily 
activities over the past week. It consists of 13 questions with a 7-day recall period on a 5-point 
Likert scale, with 0 indicating “not at all” and 4 indicating “very much”. The total score ranges 
from 0 to 52. Higher scores indicate a better the quality of life .
6.7.1.7.
36-Item Short-form Health Survey
The SF-36 (version 2) will be completed at the time points indicated in the study procedures 
table (Appendix 2) and should be completed before any other study procedures. 
The SF-36 is a health related quality of life instrument consisting of 36 questions belonging to 
8 domains in 2 components and covers a 4-week recall period:

physical well-being: 4 domains: physical functioning (10 items), role physical (4 items), 
bodily pain (2 items), and general health perceptions (5 items)

mental well-being: 4 domains: vitality (4 items), social functioning (2 items), role emotional 
(3 items), and mental health (5 items).
The remaining item (health transition) is not part of the above domains but is kept separately. 
These scales will be rescaled from 0 to 100 (converting the lowest possible score to 0 and the 
highest possible score to 100), with higher scores indicating a better quality of life. The SF-36 is 
not disease specific and has been validated in numerous health states.
6.7.1.8.
EuroQol 5 Dimensions 
The EQ-5D questionnaire will be completed at the time points indicated in the study procedures 
table (Appendix 2) and should be completed before any other study procedures where local 
language questionaires are available. 
The EQ-5D is a standard measure of health status developed by the EuroQol Group to provide a 
simple, generic measure of health for clinical and economical appraisal {The EuroQol Group 
1990}. The EQ-5D is not disease specific and has been validated in numerous health states.

The tool consists of the EQ-5D descriptive system and the EQ VAS. The descriptive part 
comprises 5 dimensions (mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and 
anxiety/depression). Each of these 5 dimensions has 3 levels (no problem, some problems, and 
severe problems). Results for each of the 5 dimensions are combined into a 5-digit number to 
describe the subject’s health state. The VAS records the subject’s health on a 0-100 mm VAS 
scale, with 0 indicating “the worst health you can imagine” and 100 indicating “the best health 
you can imagine”.
6.7.1.9.
Work Productivity and Activity Impairment for Rheumatoid Arthritis 
The WPAI-RA is a questionnaire developed to measure impairments in work activities in 
subjects with RA {Zhang et al 2010} and will be completed at the time points indicated in the 
study procedures table (Appendix 2) and should  be completed before any other study procedures
where local language questionaires are available. 
The questionnaire consists of 6 questions (currently employed, work time missed due to RA, 
Work time missed due to other reasons, hours actually worked, degree RA affected productivity 
while working [0-10 VAS; with 0 indicating no effect and 10 indicating RA completely 
prevented the subject from working], and degree RA affected productivity in regular unpaid 
activities [0-10 VAS; with 0 indicating no effect and 10 indicating RA completely prevented the 
subject’s daily activities]). The recall period for questions 2 to 6 is 7 days.
Four main outcomes (expressed in percentages) can be obtained from the WPAI-RA: percentage 
of work time missed due to RA, percentage of impairment due to RA, percentage of overall work 
impairment due to RA, percentage of activity impairment due to RA. Note that for subjects who 
did not work during the 7 days covered by the WPAI-RA, the percent overall work impairment 
will be equal to the percent of work time missed due to RA.
6.7.1.10.
Healthcare Resource Utilization
The Healthcare Resource Utilization Questionnaire is designed to assess healthcare usage during 
the previous three months across a number of direct medical cost domains. 
This questionnaire should be completed by the patient prior to any procedures being performed 
at the visit, if possible where local language questionaires are available.
6.7.1.11.
Hands, Wrists, and Feet Radiographs
Hands, wrists, and feet radiographs will be taken at the time points indicated in the study 
procedures table (Appendix 2). Note that if a subject discontinues the study early and has had

ADVERSE EVENTS AND TOXICITY MANAGEMENT
7.1.
Definitions of Adverse Events, Adverse Reactions, and Serious Adverse 
Events
7.1.1.
Adverse Events
An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study subject 
administered a medicinal product, which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the 
treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and/or unintended sign, symptom, or disease 
temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to 
the medicinal product. AEs may also include pre- or post-treatment complications that occur as a 
result of protocol specified procedures, lack of efficacy, overdose, drug abuse/misuse reports, or 
occupational exposure. Preexisting events that increase in severity or change in nature during or 
as a consequence of participation in the clinical study will also be considered AEs.
An AE does not include the following:

Medical or surgical procedures such as surgery, endoscopy, tooth extraction, and transfusion. 
The condition that led to the procedure may be an adverse event and must be reported.

Pre-existing diseases, conditions, or laboratory abnormalities present or detected before the 
screening visit that do not worsen

Situations where an untoward medical occurrence has not occurred (eg, hospitalization for 
elective surgery, social and/or convenience admissions)

Overdose without clinical sequelae (see Section 7.7.1)

Any medical condition or clinically significant laboratory abnormality with an onset date 
before the consent form is signed and not related to a protocol-associated procedure is not an 
AE. It is considered to be pre-existing and should be documented on the medical history 
CRF.
7.1.2.
Serious Adverse Events
A serious adverse event (SAE) is defined as an event that, at any dose, results in the following:

Death

Life-threatening (Note: The term “life-threatening” in the definition of “serious” refers to an 
event in which the subject was at risk of death at the time of the event; it does not refer to an 
event that hypothetically might have caused death if it were more severe.)

In-patient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization

Filgotinib 
Protocol GS-US-417-0301
Final
Gilead Sciences, Inc. 
Amendment 1
CONFIDENTIAL
Page 74
05 July 2016

Persistent or significant disability/incapacity

A congenital anomaly/birth defect

A medically important event or reaction: such events may not be immediately 
life-threatening or result in death or hospitalization but may jeopardize the subject or may 
require intervention to prevent one of the other outcomes constituting SAEs. Medical and 
scientific judgment must be exercised to determine whether such an event is a reportable 
under expedited reporting rules. Examples of medically important events include intensive 
treatment in an emergency room or at home for allergic bronchospasm; blood dyscrasias or 
convulsions that do not result in hospitalization; and development of drug dependency or 
drug abuse. For the avoidance of doubt, infections resulting from contaminated medicinal 
product will be considered a medically important event and subject to expedited reporting 
requirements.
7.1.3.
Clinical Laboratory Abnormalities and Other Abnormal Assessments as 
Adverse Events or Serious Adverse Events
Laboratory abnormalities without clinical significance are not recorded as AEs or SAEs. 
However, laboratory abnormalities (eg, clinical chemistry, hematology, and urinalysis) that 
require medical or surgical intervention or lead to study drug interruption, modification, or 
discontinuation must be recorded as an AE, as well as an SAE, if applicable. In addition, 
laboratory or other abnormal assessments (eg, electrocardiogram, x-rays, vital signs) that are 
associated with signs and/or symptoms must be recorded as an AE or SAE if they meet the 
definition of an AE or SAE as described in Sections 7.1.1 and 7.1.2 f the laboratory abnormality 
is part of a syndrome, record the syndrome or diagnosis (eg, anemia), not the laboratory result 
(ie, decreased hemoglobin).
For specific information on handling of clinical laboratory abnormalities in this study, please 
refer to Section 7.5.
7.2.
Assessment of Adverse Events and Serious Adverse Events
The investigator or qualified subinvestigator is responsible for assessing AEs and SAEs for 
causality and severity, and for final review and confirmation of accuracy of event information 
and assessments.
7.2.1.
Assessment of Causality for Study Drugs and Procedures
The investigator or qualified subinvestigator is responsible for assessing the relationship to study 
drug(s) using clinical judgment and the following considerations:

No: Evidence exists that the adverse event has an etiology other than the study drug. For 
SAEs, an alternative causality must be provided (eg, pre-existing condition, underlying 
disease, intercurrent illness, or concomitant medication).

Yes: There is reasonable possibility that the event may have been caused by the 
investigational medicinal product.

Filgotinib 
Protocol GS-US-417-0301

Gilead Sciences, Inc. 
Amendment 1
CONFIDENTIAL
Page 75
05 July 2016
It should be emphasized that ineffective treatment should not be considered as causally related in 
the context of adverse event reporting. 
The relationship to study procedures (eg, invasive procedures such as venipuncture or biopsy) 
should be assessed using the following considerations:

No: Evidence exists that the adverse event has an etiology other than the study procedure.

Yes: The adverse event occurred as a result of protocol procedures, (eg., venipuncture)
7.2.2.
Assessment of Severity 
The severity of AEs will be graded using the modified CTCAE, version 4.03. For each episode, 
the highest grade attained should be reported.
If a CTCAE criterion does not exist, the investigator should use the grade or adjectives: 
Grade 1 (mild), Grade 2 (moderate), Grade 3 (severe), Grade 4 (life-threatening) or 
Grade 5 (fatal) to describe the maximum intensity of the adverse event. For purposes of 
consistency with the CTCAE, these intensity grades are defined in Table 7-1 and Appendix 4.

Adverse Events 
Final 
Amendment 1 
Following initiation of study medication, collect all AEs, regardless of cause or relationship, 
until 30-days after last administrntion of study drng(s) must be reported to the CRF/eCRF 
database as instrncted. 
All AEs should be followed up until resolution or until the adverse event is stable, if possible. 
Gilead Sciences may request that certain AEs be followed beyond the protocol defined follow up 
period. 
Serious Adverse Events 
All SAEs, regardless of cause or relationship, that occurs after the subject first consents to 
paiiicipate in the study (ie, signing the info1med consent) and throughout the duration of the 
study, including the protocol-required post treatment follow-up period, must be reported to the 
CRF/eCRF database and Gilead Drng Safety and Public Health (DSPH) as instructed. This also 
includes any SAEs resulting from protocol-associated procedures perfonned after infonned 
consent is signed. 
Any SAEs and deaths that occur after the post tl'eatment follow-up visit but within 30-days of the 
last dose of study drng(s), regai·dless of causality, should also be repo1ied. Investigators ai·e not 
obligated to actively seek SAEs after the protocol defined follow up periodhowever, if the 
investigator learns of any SAEs that occur after study paiiicipation has concluded and the event 
is deemed relevant to the use of study drng(s), he/she should promptly document and report the 
event to Gilead DSPH. 
• 
All AEs and SAEs will be recorded in the CRF/eCRF database within the timelines outlined 
in the CRF/eCRF completion guideline. 
Electl'onic Serious Adverse Event ( eSAE) Repo1iing Process 
• 
Site personnel record all SAE data in the eCRF database and from there tr·ansmit the SAE 
info1mation to Gilead DSPH within 24 hours of the investigator's knowledge of the event 
Detailed instructions can be found in the eCRF completion guidelines. 
• 
If for any reason it is not possible to record the SAE info1mation electr·onically, ie, the eCRF 
database is not functioning, record the SAE on the paper serious adverse event reporting 
fo1m and submit within 24 hours as described above.

If an SAE has been reported via a paper form because the eCRF database has been locked, no 
further action is necessary.

All AEs and SAEs will be recorded in the eCRF database within the timelines outlined in the 
eCRF completion guideline. 

For fatal or life-threatening events, copies of hospital case reports, autopsy reports, and other 
documents are also to be submitted by e-mail or fax when requested and applicable. 
Transmission of such documents should occur without personal subject identification, 
maintaining the traceability of a document to the subject identifiers.

Additional information may be requested to ensure the timely completion of accurate safety 
reports.

Any medications necessary for treatment of the SAE must be recorded onto the concomitant 
medication section of the subject’s CRF/eCRF and the event description section of the SAE 
form.
7.4.
Gilead Reporting Requirements
Depending on relevant local legislation or regulations, including the applicable US FDA Code of 
Federal Regulations, the EU Clinical Trials Directive (2001/20/EC) and relevant updates, and 
other country-specific legislation or regulations, Gilead may be required to expedite to 
worldwide regulatory agencies reports of SAEs, serious adverse drug reactions (SADRs), or 
suspected unexpected serious adverse reactions (SUSARs). In accordance with the EU Clinical 
Trials Directive (2001/20/EC), Gilead or a specified designee will notify worldwide regulatory 
agencies and the relevant IEC in concerned Member States of applicable SUSARs as outlined in 
current regulations.
Assessment of expectedness for SAEs will be determined by Gilead using reference safety 
information specified in the investigator’s brochure or relevant local label as applicable. 
All investigators will receive a safety letter notifying them of relevant SUSAR reports associated 
with any study drug(s). The investigator should notify the IRB or IEC of SUSAR reports as soon 
as is practical, where this is required by local regulatory agencies, and in accordance with the 
local institutional policy. 
7.5.
Clinical Laboratory Abnormalities and Other Abnormal Assessments as 
Adverse Events or Serious Adverse Events
Laboratory abnormalities are usually not recorded as AEs or SAEs. However, laboratory 
abnormalities (eg, clinical chemistry, hematology, and urinalysis) independent of the 
underlying medical condition that require medical or surgical intervention or lead to 
investigational medicinal product interruption or discontinuation must be recorded as an AE, as 
well as an SAE, if applicable. In addition, laboratory or other abnormal assessments 
(eg, electrocardiogram, X-rays, vital signs) that are associated with signs and/or symptoms must 

Filgotinib 
Protocol GS-US-417-0301
Final
Gilead Sciences, Inc. 
Amendment 1

Page 78
05 July 2016
be recorded as an AE or SAE if they meet the definition of an AE (or SAE) as described in 
Sections 7.1.1 and 7.1.2. If the laboratory abnormality is part of a syndrome, record the 
syndrome or diagnosis (ie, anemia) not the laboratory result (ie, decreased hemoglobin).
Adverse events will be coded using the most recent version of the Medical Dictionary for 
Regulatory Activities (MedDRA). Severity should be recorded and graded according to the 
Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Version 4.03, which can be 
found at:
http://www.hrc.govt.nz/sites/default/files/CTCAE%20manual%20-%20DMCC.pdf
For AEs associated with laboratory abnormalities, the event should be graded on the basis of the 
clinical severity in the context of the underlying conditions; this may or may not be in agreement 
with the grading of the laboratory abnormality.
All clinical and clinically significant laboratory toxicities will be managed according to uniform 
guidelines detailed in Appendix 3 and as outlined below.
7.5.1.
Grades 1 and 2 Laboratory Abnormality or Clinical Event
Continue study drug at the discretion of the investigator.
7.5.2.
Grades 3 Laboratory Abnormality or Clinical Event

For Grade 3 clinically significant laboratory abnormality or clinical event, investigational 
medicinal product may be continued if the event is considered to be unrelated to 
investigational medicinal product.

For a Grade 3 clinical event, or clinically significant laboratory abnormality confirmed by 
repeat testing, that is considered to be related to investigational medicinal product, 
investigational medicinal product should be withheld until the toxicity returns to ≤Grade 2.

If a laboratory abnormality recurs to ≥Grade 3 following re-challenge with investigational 
medicinal product and is considered related to investigational medicinal product, then 
investigational medicinal product should be permanently discontinued and the subject 
managed according to local clinical practice. Recurrence of laboratory abnormalities 
considered unrelated to investigational medicinal product may not require permanent 
discontinuation.
7.5.3.
Grades 4 Laboratory Abnormality or Clinical Event

For a Grade 4 clinical event or clinically significant Grade 4 laboratory abnormality 
confirmed by repeat testing that is considered related to investigational medicinal product, 
investigational medicinal product should be permanently discontinued and the subject 
managed according to local clinical practice. The subject should be followed as clinically 
indicated until the laboratory abnormality returns to baseline or is otherwise explained,

whichever occurs first. A clinically significant Grade 4 laboratory abnormality that is not 
confirmed by repeat testing should be managed according to the algorithm for the new 
toxicity grade.
Investigational medicinal product may be continued without dose interruption for a clinically 
non-significant Grade 4 laboratory abnormality (eg, Grade 4 CK after strenuous exercise or 
triglyceride elevation that is nonfasting or that can be medically managed) or a clinical event 
considered unrelated to investigational medicinal product.
7.6.
Toxicity Management 
Treatment-emergent toxicities will be noted by the investigator and brought to the attention of 
the Gilead Sciences medical monitor, who will have a discussion with the investigator and 
decide the appropriate course of action. Whether or not considered treatment-related, all subjects 
experiencing AEs must be monitored periodically until symptoms subside, any abnormal 
laboratory values have resolved or returned to baseline levels or they are considered irreversible, 
or until there is a satisfactory explanation for the changes observed.
Grade 3 or 4 clinically significant laboratory abnormalities should be managed as outlined in 
Appendix 3 and Sections 7.5.2 and 7.5.3.
Any questions regarding toxicity management should be directed to the Gilead Sciences 
Medical Monitor.
7.7.
Special Situations Reports
7.7.1.
Definitions of Special Situations
Special situation reports include all reports of medication error, abuse, misuse, overdose, reports 
of AE associated with product complaints, occupational exposure with an AE, pregnancy reports 
(regardless of an associated AE), and AE in an infant following potential exposure from 
breastfeeding.  
Medication error is any unintentional error in the prescribing, dispensing, or administration of a 
medicinal product while in the control of the health care provider, subject, or consumer. 
Abuse is defined as persistent or sporadic intentional excessive use of a medicinal product by a 
subject.
Misuse is defined as any intentional and inappropriate use of a medicinal product that is not in 
accordance with the protocol instructions or the local prescribing information.
An overdose is defined as an accidental or intentional administration of a quantity of a medicinal 
product given per administration or cumulatively which is above the maximum recommended 
dose as per protocol or in the product labelling (as it applies to the daily dose of the subject in 
question). In cases of a discrepancy in drug accountability, overdose will be established only 
when it is clear that the subject has taken the excess dose(s). Overdose cannot be established 
when the subject cannot account for the discrepancy except in cases in which the investigator has 
reason to suspect that the subject has taken the additional dose(s).

Product complaint is defined as complaints arising from potential deviations in the manufacture, 
packaging, or distribution of the medicinal product.
Occupational exposure is defined as exposure to a medicinal product as a result of one's 
professional or non-professional occupation.
7.7.2.
Instructions for Reporting Special Situations
7.7.2.1.
Instructions for Reporting Pregnancies
The investigator should report pregnancies in female study subjects that are identified after 
initiation of study drug and throughout the study, including the post study drug follow-up period, 
to Gilead DSPH using the pregnancy report form within 24 hours of becoming aware of the 
pregnancy. 
Refer to Section 7.3 and the CRF/eCRF completion guidelines for full instructions on the 
mechanism of pregnancy reporting.
The pregnancy itself is not considered an AE nor is an elective abortion to terminate a pregnancy 
without medical reasons.
Any premature termination of pregnancy (eg, a spontaneous abortion, an induced therapeutic 
abortion due to complications or other medical reasons) must be reported within 24 hours as an 
SAE. The underlying medical reason for this procedure should be recorded as the AE term.
A spontaneous abortion is always considered to be an SAE and will be reported as described in 
Sections 7.1.1 and 7.1.2. Furthermore, any SAE occurring as an adverse pregnancy outcome post 
study must be reported to Gilead DSPH.
The subject should receive appropriate monitoring and care until the conclusion of the 
pregnancy. The outcome should be reported to Gilead using the pregnancy outcome report form. 
If the end of the pregnancy occurs after the study has been completed, the outcome should be 
reported directly to Gilead DSPH. Gilead DSPH contact information is as follows:
Email: 
 and Fax: 
 
Pregnancies of female partners of male study subjects exposed to study drugs must also be 
reported and relevant information should be submitted to Gilead DSPH using the pregnancy and 
pregnancy outcome forms within 24 hours. Monitoring of the subject should continue until the 
conclusion of the pregnancy. If the end of the pregnancy occurs after the study has been 
completed, the outcome should be reported directly to Gilead DSPH,
fax number 
 or email 
 
Refer to Appendix 5 for Pregnancy Precautions, Definition for Female of Childbearing Potential, 
and Contraceptive Requirements.

Reporting Other Special Situations
All other special situation reports must be reported on the special situations report form and 
forwarded to  Gilead DSPH within 24 hours of the investigator becoming aware of the situation. 
These reports must consist of situations that involve study drug(s) and/or Gilead concomitant 
medications, but do not apply to non-Gilead concomitant medications. 
Special situations involving non-Gilead concomitant medications does not need to be reported on 
the special situations report form; however, for special situations that result in AEs due to a non-
Gilead concomitant medication, the AE should be reported on the AE form. 
Any inappropriate use of concomitant medications prohibited by this protocol should not be 
reported as “misuse,” but may be more appropriately documented as a protocol deviation.
Refer to Section 7.3 and the CRF/eCRF completion guidelines for full instructions on the 
mechanism of special situations reporting.
All clinical sequelae in relation to these special situation reports will be reported as AEs or SAEs 
at the same time using the AE CRF/eCRF and/or the SAE report form. Details of the symptoms 
and signs, clinical management, and outcome will be reported, when available.

Efficacy Analysis
8.5.1.
Primary Analysis
The primary endpoint for the study is the proportion of subjects who achieve an ACR20 response 
at Week 12. The primary analysis will consist of a superiority test of filgotinib 200 mg compared 
to placebo based on the ACR20 response rate at Week 12. Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel (CMH)
approach adjusting for the randomization stratification factors will be used for the hypothesis
testing at the 2-sided 0.05-level. Subjects who do not have sufficient measurements to establish 
efficacy at Week 12 will be considered as failures (ie, non-responder imputation [NRI]).  
Sensitivity analyses will be conducted and described in the statistical analysis plan (SAP).

Secondary Analyses
The following hypothesis testing will commence after the primary analysis reaches statistical 
significance, and will be tested according to the hierarchical testing principle at the 2-sided 
0.05-level. If a null hypothesis is not rejected, formal sequential testing will be stopped and only 
nominal significance will be reported for the remaining hypotheses:
1) Superiority of filgotinib 200 mg compared to placebo based on the response rate of DAS28 
(CRP)≤3.2 at Week 12. 
2) Superiority of filgotinib 200 mg compared to placebo based on the change from Baseline in 
HAQ-DI at Week 12. 
3) Superiority of filgotinib 200 mg compared to placebo based on the response rate of DAS28 
(CRP)<2.6 at Week 24. 
4) Superiority of filgotinib 100 mg compared to placebo based on ACR20 response rate at 
Week 12. 
5) Superiority of filgotinib 100 mg compared to placebo based on the response rate of DAS28 
(CRP)≤3.2 at Week 12. 
6) Superiority of filgotinib 100 mg compared to placebo based on the change from Baseline in 
HAQ-DI at Week 12. 
7) Superiority of filgotinib 100 mg compared to placebo based on the response rate of DAS28 
(CRP)<2.6 at Week 24. 
8) Superiority of filgotinib 200 mg compared to placebo based on the change from Baseline in 
mTSS at Week 24
9) Superiority of filgotinib 100 mg compared to placebo based on the change from Baseline in 
mTSS at Week 24.
10) Non-inferiority of filgotinib 200 mg compared to adalimumab based on the response rate of 
DAS28 (CRP)≤3.2 at Week 12.
11) Non-inferiority of filgotinib 100 mg compared to adalimumab based on the response rate 
DAS28 (CRP)≤3.2 at Week 12. 
For categorical endpoints (response rate of DAS28 [CRP]≤3.2 and DAS28 [CRP)<2.6), the same 
CMH approach with NRI as in the primary analysis will be adopted.  For continuous endpoints 
(HAQ-DI and mTSS), mixed-effects model for repeated measures (MMRM) will be used to 
evaluate treatment effect on change score from Baseline, with treatment, visit, stratification 
factors and baseline value included as fixed effects and subject being the random effect.  Missing 
change scores in HAQ-DI and mTSS due to early withdrawal or treatment reassignment will not 
be otherwise imputed using the MMRM approach. Sensitivity analyses will be conducted by 
imputing missing data via, for example, last observation carried forward (LOCF) and multiple 
imputation (MI) methods.

Adverse Events 
Final 
Amendment 1 
Clinical and laborato1y adverse events will be coded using the Medical Dictionaiy for 
Regulato1y Activities (MedDRA). System Organ Class (SOC), High-Level Group Te1m 
(HLGT), High-Level Te1m (HLT), Prefe1Ted Te1m (PT), and Lower-Level Te1m (LLT) will be 
attached to the clinical database. 
Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) are: 
• 
Any AEs with an onset date of on or after the study dmg sta1t date and no later than 30 days 
after pe1manent discontinuation of study diug or 
• 
Any AEs leading to premature discontinuation of study diug. 
Summaries (number and percentage of subjects) ofTEAEs by SOC and PT will be provided by 
treatment group. TEAEs will also be summarized by relationshiop to study diug and severity. fu 
addition, TEAEs leading to premature discontinuation of study diug will be summarized and 
listed. 
8.6.3. 
Laboratory Evaluations 
Selected laborato1y data will be summai·ized (n, mean, SD, median, QI, Q3, minimum, and 
maximum) by treatment group and study visit along with conesponding change from Baseline. 
The incidence of treatment-emergent graded laborato1y abno1malities will be summai·ized 
similai·ly. 
Graded laborato1y abno1malities will be defined using CTCAE 4.03 grading scale Appendix 4. 
8.7. 
Pharmacokinetic Analysis 
Plasma concentrations of filgotinib and its metabolite (GS-829845) will be listed and 
summarized for all subjects by treatment using descriptive statistics (eg, sample size, arithmetic 
mean, geometric mean, % coefficient of variation, standard deviation, median, minimum, and 
Exposure-response analyses may be perfonned. 
8.8. 
Biomarker Analysis 
Explorato1y analyses may be perfonned to evaluate the association of each biomarker or 
combination of biomai·kers with clinical outcomes, the modulation of biomai·kers related to 
mechanism of action and disease progression, and biomarker or combination of biomai·kers 
predictive of treatment response.

Exploratory biomarkers analyses that may enhance the understanding of the biological effects, 
the mechanism of action, or safety, may be performed. Biomarker objectives may be further 
described and updated based on evolving scientific knowledge of filgotinib. If an exploratory 
biomarker analysis is to be performed, biomarker analysis plan, with details on objectives and 
analysis methods, will be issued prior to the actual data analysis.
8.9.
Sample Size
Sample size is determined based on the superiority test of filgotinib 200 mg compared to placebo 
based on the change from Baseline in mTSS at Week 24. When assuming a difference of 
0.4 between filgotinib and placebo on change from Baseline in mTSS at Week 24 and a common 
standard deviation of 1.85, 450 subjects in each of the filgotinib 200 mg group and placebo 
control group are required to obtain 90% power at a 2-sided 0.05-level. 
A sample size of 450 subjects in each of the filgotinib groups and placebo control group will 
provide over 95% power to detect an increase in ACR20 response rate of 45% to 65% between 
the placebo control group and the filgotinib group respectively, using a 2-sided 0.05-level test.
Based on {Liu et al 2014}, 450 subjects in each of the filgotinib 200 mg group and placebo 
group, and 300 subjects in the adalimumab group, will provide over 90% power at 2-sided 
0.05 significance level to demonstrate that filgotinib 200 mg preserves more than 50% of the 
effect of adalimumab with respect to the response rate of DAS28 (CRP)≤3.2 at Week 12, 
assuming both filgotinib 200 mg and adalimumab groups have similar response rates of DAS28 
(CRP)≤3.2.  Given this study has a placebo group, assay sensitivity can be established through a 
direct comparison of adalimumab to placebo.
In summary, the total sample size will be 1650 (450 for the filgotinib 200 mg, filgotinib 100 mg, 
placebo groups, and 300 for the active comparator group).
8.10.
Data Monitoring Committee
An external multidisciplinary DMC will review the progress of the study and perform interim 
reviews of safety data and provide recommendation to Gilead whether the nature, frequency, and 
severity of adverse effects associated with study treatment warrant the early termination of the 
study in the best interests of the participants, whether the study should continue as planned, or 
the study should continue with modifications. 
The initial reviews will be conducted after approximately 100 subjects enrolled complete through 
12 weeks of treatment. The DMC’s specific activities will be defined by a mutually agreed 
charter, which will define the DMC’s membership, conduct and meeting schedule.
While the DMC will be asked to advise Gilead regarding future conduct of the study, including 
possible early study termination, Gilead retains final decision-making authority on all aspects of 
the study.

9.1.
Investigator Responsibilities
9.1.1.
Good Clinical Practice
The investigator will ensure that this study is conducted in accordance with the principles of the 
Declaration of Helsinki (as amended in Edinburgh, Tokyo, Venice, Hong Kong, and 
South Africa), International Conference on Harmonisation (ICH) guidelines, or with the laws and 
regulations of the country in which the research is conducted, whichever affords the greater 
protection to the study subject. These standards are consistent with the European Union Clinical 
Trials Directive 2001/20/EC and Good Clinical Practice Directive 2005/28/EC.
The investigator will ensure adherence to the basic principles of Good Clinical Practice, as 
outlined in 21 CFR 312, subpart D, “Responsibilities of Sponsors and Investigators,” 21 CFR, 
part 50, 1998, and 21 CFR, part 56, 1998.
The investigator and all applicable subinvestigators will comply with 21 CFR, Part 54, 1998, 
providing documentation of their financial interest or arrangements with Gilead, or proprietary 
interests in the investigational drug under study. This documentation must be provided prior to 
the investigator’s (and any subinvestigator’s) participation in the study. The investigator and 
subinvestigator agree to notify Gilead of any change in reportable interests during the study and 
for 1 year following completion of the study. Study completion is defined as the date when the 
last subject completes the protocol-defined activities.
9.1.2.
Institutional Review Board (IRB)/Independent Ethics Committee (IEC) 
Review and Approval
The investigator (or sponsor as appropriate according to local regulations) will submit this 
protocol, informed consent form, and any accompanying material to be provided to the subject 
(such as advertisements, subject information sheets, or descriptions of the study used to obtain 
informed consent) to an IRB/IEC. The investigator will not begin any study subject activities 
until approval from the IRB/IEC has been documented and provided as a letter to the 
investigator.
Before implementation, the investigator will submit to and receive documented approval from 
the IRB/IEC any modifications made to the protocol or any accompanying material to be 
provided to the subject after initial IRB/IECapproval, with the exception of those necessary to 
reduce immediate risk to study subjects.
9.1.3.
Informed Consent
The investigator is responsible for obtaining written informed consent from each individual 
participating in this study after adequate explanation of the aims, methods, objectives, and 
potential hazards of the study and before undertaking any study-related procedures. The 

Filgotinib 
Protocol GS-US-417-0301

investigator must use the most current IRB/IEC approved consent form for documenting written 
informed consent. Each informed consent (or assent as applicable) will be appropriately signed 
and dated by the subject and the person conducting the consent discussion, and also by an 
impartial witness if required by IRB/ IEC or local requirements. The consent form will inform 
subjects about genomic testing and sample retention, and their right to receive clinically relevant 
genomic analysis results.
9.1.4.
Confidentiality
The investigator must assure that subjects’ anonymity will be strictly maintained and that their 
identities are protected from unauthorized parties. Only subject initials, date of birth, another 
unique identifier (as allowed by local law) and an identification code  will be recorded on any 
form or biological sample submitted to the Sponsor, IRB/IEC, or laboratory. Laboratory 
specimens must be labeled in such as way as to protect subject identity while allowing the results 
to be recorded to the proper subject. Refer to specific laboratory instructions. NOTE: The 
investigator must keep a screening log showing codes, names, and addresses for all subjects 
screened and for all subjects enrolled in the trial. Subject data will be processed in accordance 
with all applicable regulations. 
The investigator agrees that all information received from Gilead, including but not limited to the 
investigator brochure, this protocol, CRF/eCRF, the study drug, and any other study information, 
remain the sole and exclusive property of Gilead during the conduct of the study and thereafter. 
This information is not to be disclosed to any third party (except employees or agents directly 
involved in the conduct of the study or as required by law) without prior written consent from 
Gilead. The investigator further agrees to take all reasonable precautions to prevent the 
disclosure by any employee or agent of the study site to any third party or otherwise into the 
public domain.
9.1.5.
Study Files and Retention of Records
The investigator must maintain adequate and accurate records to enable the conduct of the study 
to be fully documented and the study data to be subsequently verified. These documents should 
be classified into at least the following two categories: (1) investigator’s study file, and 
(2) subject clinical source documents.
The investigator’s study file will contain the protocol/amendments, CRF and query forms, 
IRB/IEC and governmental approval with correspondence, informed consent, drug records, staff 
curriculum vitae and authorization forms, and other appropriate documents and correspondence.
The required source data should include sequential notes containing at least the following 
information for each subject:

Subject identification (name, date of birth, gender);

Documentation that subject meets eligibility criteria, ie, history, physical examination, and 
confirmation of diagnosis (to support inclusion and exclusion criteria);

Filgotinib 
Protocol GS-US-417-0301

Page 93
05 July 2016

Documentation of the reason(s) a consented subject is not enrolled

Participation in study (including study number);

Study discussed and date of informed consent;

Dates of all visits;

Documentation that protocol specific procedures were performed;

Results of efficacy parameters, as required by the protocol;

Start and end date (including dose regimen) of study drug(s), including dates of dispensing 
and return;

Record of all adverse events and other safety parameters (start and end date, and including 
causality and severity);

Concomitant medication (including start and end date, dose if relevant; dose changes);

Date of study completion and reason for early discontinuation, if it occurs.
All clinical study documents must be retained by the investigator until at least 2 years or 
according to local laws, whichever is longer, after the last approval of a marketing application in 
an ICH region (ie, United States, Europe, or Japan) and until there are no pending or planned 
marketing applications in an ICH region; or, if no application is filed or if the application is not 
approved for such indication, until 2 years after the investigation is discontinued and regulatory 
authorities have been notified. Investigators may be required to retain documents longer if 
specified by regulatory requirements, by local regulations, or by an agreement with Gilead. The 
investigator must notify Gilead before destroying any clinical study records.
Should the investigator wish to assign the study records to another party or move them to another 
location, Gilead must be notified in advance.
If the investigator cannot provide for this archiving requirement at the study site for any or all of 
the documents, special arrangements must be made between the investigator and Gilead to store 
these records securely away from the site so that they can be returned sealed to the investigator 
in case of an inspection. When source documents are required for the continued care of the 
subject, appropriate copies should be made for storage away from the site.
9.1.6.
Case Report Forms
For each subject consented, an eCRF will be completed by an authorized study staff member 
whose training for this function is documented according to study procedures. eCRF should be 
completed on the day of the subject visit to enable the sponsor to perform central monitoring of 
safety data.  The Eligibility Criteria eCRF should be completed only after all data related to 

Filgotinib 
Protocol GS-US-417-0301

eligibility have been received.  Subsequent to data entry, a study monitor will perform source 
data verification within the EDC system. Original entries as well as any changes to data fields 
will be stored in the audit trail of the system.  Prior to database lock (or any interim time points 
as described in the clinical data management plan), the investigator will use his/her log in 
credentials to confirm that the forms have been reviewed, and that the entries accurately reflect 
the information in the source documents. The eCRF captures the data required per the protocol 
schedule of events and procedures. System-generated or manual queries will be issued to the 
investigative site staff as data discrepancies are identified by the monitor or internal Gilead staff, 
who routinely review the data for completeness, correctness, and consistency. The site 
coordinator is responsible for responding to the queries in a timely manner, within the system, 
either by confirming the data as correct or updating the original entry, and providing the reason 
for the update (eg data entry error). At the conclusion of the trial, Gilead will provide the site 
with a read-only archive copy of the data entered by that site. This archive must be stored in 
accordance with the records retention requirements outlined in Section 9.1.5.
9.1.7.
Investigational Medicinal Product Accountability and Return
Where possible, study drug(s) should be destroyed at the site. At the start of the study, the study 
monitor will evaluate each study center’s study drug disposal procedures and provide appropriate 
instruction for disposal or return of unused study drug supplies. If the site has an appropriate 
standard operating procedure (SOP) for drug destruction as determined by Gilead Sciences, the 
site may destroy used (empty or partially empty) and unused study drug supplies as long as 
performed in accordance with the site’s SOP. This can occur only after the study monitor has 
performed drug accountability during an on-site monitoring visit. 
A copy of the site’s Study Drug Disposal SOP or written procedure (signed and dated by the PI 
or designee) will be obtained for Gilead site files. If the site does not have acceptable 
procedures in place, arrangements will be made between the site and Gilead Sciences 
(or Gilead Sciences’ representative) for return of unused study drug supplies. 
If study drug is destroyed on site, the investigator must maintain accurate records for all study 
drugs destroyed. Upon study completion, copies of the study drug accountability records must be 
filed at the site. Another copy will be returned to Gilead.
The study monitor will review study drug supplies and associated records at periodic intervals.
9.1.8.
Inspections
The investigator will make available all source documents and other records for this trial to 
Gilead’s appointed study monitors, to IRBs/IECs, or to regulatory authority or health authority 
inspectors.
9.1.9.
Protocol Compliance
The investigator is responsible for ensuring the study is conducted in accordance with the 
procedures and evaluations described in this protocol.

made only by Gilead. The investigator must submit all protocol modifications to the IRB/IEC in 
accordance with local requirements and receive documented IRB/IECapproval before 
modifications can be implemented.
9.2.2.
Study Report and Publications
A clinical study report (CSR) will be prepared and provided to the regulatory agency(ies). Gilead 
will ensure that the report meets the standards set out in the ICH Guideline for Structure and 
Content of Clinical Study Reports (ICH E3). Note that an abbreviated report may be prepared in 
certain cases. 
Investigators in this study may communicate, orally present, or publish in scientific journals or 
other scholarly media only after the following conditions have been met:
the results of the study in their entirety have been publicly disclosed by or with the consent of 
Gilead in an abstract, manuscript, or presentation form or the study has been completed at all 
study sites for at least 2 years
The investigator will submit to Gilead any proposed publication or presentation along with the 
respective scientific journal or presentation forum at least 30 days before submission of the 
publication or presentation. 
No such communication, presentation, or publication will include Gilead’s confidential 
information (see Section 9.1.4).
The investigator will comply with Gilead’s request to delete references to its confidential 
information (other than the study results) in any paper or presentation and agrees to withhold 
publication or presentation for an additional 60 days in order to obtain patent protection if 
deemed necessary.
9.3.
Joint Investigator/Sponsor Responsibilities
9.3.1.
Payment Reporting
Investigators and their study staff may be asked to provide services performed under this 
protocol, eg attendance at Investigator's Meetings.  If required under the applicable statutory and 
regulatory requirements, Gilead will capture and disclose to Federal and State agencies any 
expenses paid or reimbursed for such services, including any clinical trial payments, meal, travel 
expenses or reimbursements, consulting fees, and any other transfer of value.

Access to Information for Monitoring
In accordance with regulations and guidelines, the study monitor must have direct access to the 
investigator’s source documentation in order to verify the accuracy of the data recorded in the 
CRF/eCRF.
The monitor is responsible for routine review of the CRF/eCRF at regular intervals throughout 
the study to verify adherence to the protocol and the completeness, consistency, and accuracy of 
the data being entered on them. The monitor should have access to any subject records needed to 
verify the entries on the CRF/eCRF. The investigator agrees to cooperate with the monitor to 
ensure that any problems detected through any type of monitoring (central, on site) are resolved.
9.3.3.
Access to Information for Auditing or Inspections
Representatives of regulatory authorities or of Gilead may conduct inspections or audits of the 
clinical study. If the investigator is notified of an inspection by a regulatory authority the 
investigator agrees to notify the Gilead medical monitor immediately. The investigator agrees to 
provide to representatives of a regulatory agency or Gilead access to records, facilities, and 
personnel for the effective conduct of any inspection or audit.
9.3.4.
Study Discontinuation
Both the sponsor and the investigator reserve the right to terminate the study at any time. Should 
this be necessary, both parties will arrange discontinuation procedures and notify the appropriate 
regulatory authority(ies), IRBs, and IECs. In terminating the study, Gilead and the investigator 
will assure that adequate consideration is given to the protection of the subjects’ interests.

Appendix 5.
Pregnancy Precautions, Definition for Female of Childbearing 
Potential, and Contraceptive Methods 
The administration of filgotinib in embryo-fetal animal development studies resulted in 
decreased numbers of viable rat fetuses, increased resorptions, and visceral and skeletal 
malformations.  Similar effects were noted in the rabbit. A safety margin relative to human 
exposure has not been identified.  Pregnancy is contraindicated during use of filgotininb.
For participation in this study, all subjects of childbearing potential must agree to the use of 
highly effective contraception as outlined below.
1) Definitions
a) Definition of Childbearing Potential
For the purposes of this study, a female-born subject is considered of childbearing potential 
following the initiation of puberty (Tanner stage 2) until becoming post-menopausal, unless 
permanently sterile or with medically documented ovarian failure.  
Women are considered to be in a postmenopausal state when they are > 54 years of age with 
cessation of previously occurring menses for > 12 months without an alternative cause. In 
addition, women of any age with amenorrhea > 12 months may also be considered 
postmenopausal if their FSH level is in the postmenopausal range at Screening and they are not 
using hormonal contraception or hormonal replacement therapy.   `
Permanent sterilization includes hysterectomy, bilateral oophorectomy, or bilateral 
salpingectomy/ in a female subject of any age.
b) Definition of Male Fertility
For the purposes of this study, a male-born subject is considered fertile after the initiation of 
puberty unless permanently sterile by bilateral orchidectomy or has medical documentation of 
permanent male infertility.
2) Contraception for Female Subjects
a) Study Drug Effects on Pregnancy and Hormonal Contraception
Filgotinib is contraindicated in pregnancy as there is a possibility of human 
teratogenicity/fetotoxicity in early pregnancy based on non-clinical data. A dedicated study 
assessing the impact of filgotinib on the efficacy of hormonally-based contraceptives 
(with ovulation inhibition as mechanism of action) has not yet been performed to fully verify the 
absence of any clinically significant interaction between filgotinib and oral contraceptives.  
However, clinically relevant drug-drug interactions between hormonally-based contraceptives 
and filgotinib or its active metabolite GS-829845 are not expected. In vitro studies in HepaRG 
cells using reference substrates indicate that filgotinib and GS-829845 do not induce CYP1A2, 

Filgotinib 
Protocol GS-US-417-0301
Final
Gilead Sciences, Inc. 
Amendment 1

Page 109
05 July 2016
CYP2B6, or CYP3A4, enzymes involved in metabolism of common hormonal contraceptives. 
Preliminary results using primary human hepatocytes also confirmed that filgotinib and 
GS-829845 did not induce mRNA expression of CYP1A2, CYP2B6, or CYP3A4. The lack of 
induction potential of filgotinib and GS-829845 on CYP3A4 was further confirmed in a clinical 
drug-drug interaction study, where multiple dose administration of 200 mg filgotinib did not 
affect the pharmacokinetics of midazolam (a prototypical in vivo probe CYP3A4 substrate). 
Additionally, clinically relevant inhibition of CYPs or UGTs during filgotinib treatment is 
unlikely, based on in vitro data.
Based on the totality of the in vitro and clinical data, clinically relevant drug interactions 
between filgotinib or GS-829845 with hormonal contraceptives are not expected. For female 
subjects, hormonal contraceptives will be permitted as a form of contraception when used in 
conjunction with a barrier method (preferably male condom). For male subjects, male condom 
should be used; for their female partners of childbearing potential, an accepted contraceptive 
method should also be considered. Details are outlined below.
Please refer to the latest version of the filgotinib investigator’s brochure for additional 
information.
b) Contraception for Female Subjects of Childbearing Potential
The inclusion of female subjects of childbearing potential requires the use of highly effective 
contraceptive measures.  Women must have a negative serum pregnancy test at Screening and a 
negative urine pregnancy test on the Baseline/Day 1 visit prior to randomization.  Pregnancy 
tests will be performed at monthly intervals thereafter.  In the event of a delayed menstrual 
period (> one month between menstruations), a pregnancy test must be performed to rule out 
pregnancy.  This is true even for women of childbearing potential with infrequent or irregular 
periods. Female subjects must agree to use one of the following methods from Screening until 
35 days following the last dose of study drug. 

Complete abstinence from intercourse of reproductive potential.  Abstinence is an acceptable 
method of contraception only when it is in line with the subject’s preferred and usual 
lifestyle.
Or

Consistent and correct use of 1 of the following methods of birth control listed below. 
Intrauterine device (IUD) with a failure rate of <1% per year
Tubal sterilization
Essure micro-insert system (provided confirmation of success 3 months after procedure)

Filgotinib 
Protocol GS-US-417-0301
Final
Gilead Sciences, Inc. 
Amendment 1
CONFIDENTIAL
Page 110
05 July 2016
Vasectomy in the male partner (provided that the partner is the sole sexual partner and 
had confirmation of surgical success at least 3 months after procedure, with 
documentation of sperm-free ejaculate)

These above described methods are considered preferred methods of highly effective 
contraception in this protocol.
Female subjects who wish to use a hormonally based method must agree to use it in conjunction 
with a barrier method (used either by the female subject or by her male partner).  Female subjects 
who utilize a hormonal contraceptive as one of their birth control methods must have
consistently used the same method for at least three months prior to study dosing.
Hormonally-based contraceptives and barrier methods permitted for use in this protocol are as 
follows:

Hormonal methods (subject must agree to use with a barrier method, preferably, with a male 
condom)
Oral contraceptives (either combined estrogen/progestin or progesterone only)
Injectable progesterone
Implants of levonorgestrel
Transdermal contraceptive patch
Contraceptive vaginal ring

Barrier methods (subject must agree to use with a hormonal method)
Male or female condom, with or without spermicide
Diaphragm with spermicide
Cervical cap with spermicide
Sponge with spermicide

All female subjects must also agree to refrain from egg donation and in vitro fertilization 
during study participation and for at least 35 days after the last study drug dose.
3) Contraception for Male Subjects
It is theoretically possible that a relevant systemic concentration may be achieved in a female 
partner from exposure to the male subject’s seminal fluid.  Therefore, male subjects with female 
partners of childbearing potential must agree to use condoms during study participation and for 
90 days after the last study drug dose.  Female partners of male study subjects should consider 
using one of the above methods of contraception as well. Male subjects must also agree to refrain 
from sperm donation during treatment and until at least 90 days after the end of dosing.

4) Unacceptable Birth Control Methods
Birth control methods that are unacceptable include periodic abstinence (e,g, calendar, ovulation, 
symptothermal, post-ovulation methods), withdrawal (coitus interruptus), spermicides only, and 
lactational amenorrhea method (LAM).  Female condom and male condom should not be used 
together.
5) Procedures to be Followed in the Event of Pregnancy
Subjects will be instructed to notify the investigator if they become pregnant at any time during 
the study, or if they become pregnant within 35 days of last study drug dose.  Subjects who 
become pregnant or who suspect that they are pregnant during the study must report the 
information to the investigator and discontinue study drug immediately. Subjects whose partner 
has become pregnant or suspects she is pregnant during the study are to report the information to 
the investigator.
Instructions for reporting pregnancy, partner pregnancy, and pregnancy outcome are outlined in 
Section 7.7.2.1.
Pregnancy Testing 
All females of childbearing potential will have urine pregnancy testing every 4 weeks during the 
dosing period through 35 days after their last dose of study drug. During the periods where study 
visits are every 6-8 weeks, women should continue to have pregnancy tests every 4 weeks, using 
home pregnancy urine tests, that will be provided to them. The site will call the subject every 4
weeks to obtain results of these pregnancy tests and will record the information in the source 
documents and CRF. If a positive urine pregnancy test is reported, the subject will be asked to 
return to the clinic for a confirmatory serum pregnancy test.

a 
The criteria are aimed at classification of newly presenting patients. In addition, patients with erosive disease typical of 
rheumatoid arthritis (RA) with a history compatible with prior fulfillment of the 2010 criteria should be classified as having 
RA. Patients with longstanding disease, including those whose disease is inactive (with or without treatment) who, based on 
retrospectively available data, have previously fulfilled the 2010 criteria should be classified as having RA.
b
Differential diagnoses vary among patients with different presentations, but may include conditions such as systemic lupus 
erythematosus, psoriatic arthritis, and gout. If it is unclear about the relevant differential diagnoses to consider, an expert 
rheumatologist should be consulted.
c
Although patients with a score of <6/10 are not classifiable as having RA, their status can be reassessed and the criteria 
might be fulfilled cumulatively over time.
d
Joint involvement refers to any swollen or tender joint on examination, which may be confirmed by imaging evidence of 
synovitis. Distal interphalangeal joints, first carpometacarpal joints, and first metatarsophalangeal joints are excluded from
assessment. Categories of joint distribution are classified according to the location and number of involved joints, with 
placement into the highest category possible based on the pattern of joint involvement.
e
"Large joints" refers to shoulders, elbows, hips, knees, and ankles.
f
"Small joints" refers to the metacarpophalangeal joints, proximal interphalangeal joints, second through 
fifth metatarsophalangeal joints, thumb interphalangeal joints, and wrists.
g
In this category, at least 1 of the involved joints must be a small joint; the other joints can include any combination of large 
and additional small joints, as well as other joints not specifically listed elsewhere (eg, temporomandibular, 
acromioclavicular, sternoclavicular).

h
Negative refers to IU values that are less than or equal to the upper limit of normal (ULN) for the laboratory and assay; 
low-positive refers to IU values that are higher than the ULN but ≤3 times the ULN for the laboratory and assay; 
high-positive refers to IU values that are >3 times the ULN for the laboratory and assay. Where rheumatoid factor (RF) 
information is only available as positive or negative, a positive result should be scored as low-positive for RF. 
ACPA = anti-citrullinated protein antibody.
i
Normal/abnormal is determined by local laboratory standards. CRP = C-reactive protein; ESR = erythrocyte sedimentation 
rate.
j
Duration of symptoms refers to patient self-report of the duration of signs or symptoms of synovitis (eg, pain, swelling, 
tenderness) of joints that are clinically involved at the time of assessment, regardless of treatment status.

American College of Rheumatology Response Evaluations/ 
Preliminary Definition of Improvement in Rheumatoid Arthritis 
{Felson et al 1995}
ACR 20 Required
≥20% improvement in tender joint count,  AND
≥20% improvement in swollen joint count, AND
≥20% improvement in at least 3 of the following 5 items:

Patient pain assessment

Patient global assessment of disease activity

Physician global assessment of disease activity

Patient’s assessment of physical function (HAQ-DI)

Acute-phase reactant (CRP)
The following lists the disease activity measure followed by the method of assessment
1.
Tender joint count
ACR tender joint count is an assessment of 68. The joint count should be done by scoring several 
different aspects of tenderness, as assessed by pressure and joint manipulation on physical 
examination. The information on various types of tenderness should then be collapsed into a 
single tender-versus-nontender dichotomy.
2.
Swollen joint count
ACR swollen joint count is an assessment of 66. Joints are classified as either swollen or not 
swollen.
3.
Patient’s assessment of pain
The pain score from the HAQ-DI will be used to calculate ACR response.

Patient’s global assessment of disease activity
A horizontal, visual analog scale will be used to provide the patient’s overall assessment of how 
the arthritis is doing.
Place a mark on the line below to indicate how you assess your current rheumatoid 
arthritis disease activity:
   No arthritis
Severe arthritis
5.
Physician’s global assessment of disease activity
A horizontal visual analog scale will be used to measure the physician’s assessment of the 
patient’s current disease activity.
Place a mark on the line below to indicate RA disease activity (independent of the subject’s 
self-assessment):
No Disease Activity                                                                                 Maximum Disease Activity

Patient’s assessment of physical function
The HAQ-DI will be used to provide a patient’s self-assessment of physical function.

Disease Activity Score (DAS28) {Prevoo et al 1995}
Assessments of RA in patients by the Disease Activity Score (modified to include the 28 joint 
counts according to Smolen* 1995) will be conducted at the measured timepoints. The DAS28 
consists of a composite score of the following variables: tender joint count, swollen joint count, 
CRP, and patient global score. The following equation will be used to calculate the DAS28-CRP

DAS28(CRP) 0.56 √TJC28 0.28√SJC28 0.36ln(CRP 1) 0.014(patients global VAS) 
0.96

TJC28 = number of joints tender out of 28

SJC28 = number of joints swollen out of 28

CRP = C-reactive protein

Patient global VAS as defined in Appendix 9

Procedures and Specifications 
Complete Physical Examination
A complete physical examination should include source documentation of general appearance, 
and the following body systems: Head, neck and thyroid; eyes, ears, nose, throat, mouth and 
tongue; chest (excluding breasts); respiratory; cardiovascular; lymph nodes; abdomen; skin, hair, 
nails; musculoskeletal; and neurological. 
Blood Pressure
Assessment of vital signs will include measurement of resting blood pressure, pulse, respiratory 
rate, and temperature.
Blood pressure will be measured using the following standardized process:

Subject should be resting for 5 minutes with feet flat on the floor and measurement arm 
supported so that the midpoint of the manometer cuff is at heart level;

Use a mercury sphygmomanometer or automatic blood pressure device with an appropriately 
sized cuff with the bladder centered over the brachial artery;

Measure and record the blood pressure to the nearest 2 mmHg mark on the manometer or to
the nearest whole number on an automatic device.
Creatinine Clearance 
Creatinine clearance is calculated by the Cockcroft-Gault equation {Cockcroft et al 1976} using 
actual body weight (BW). 
Male:
CLcr (mL/min) = [140 - age (years)] BW(kg)
72 Scr
Female:
CLcr (mL/min) = [140 - age (years)] BW(kg) 0.85
72 Scr
Scr = serum creatinine (mg/dL)
12-Lead ECG
Subjects should be resting in a supine position for 5 minutes prior to making a recording.
The investigator (or qualified designee) should review the ECG traces recorded in real time for 
clinically significant abnormalities.  On treatment ECGs should be compared to the subject’s 
Screening ECG as part of routine safety monitoring.
