Clinical Trial Protocol: C2013-0302 
 
 
 
 
This is a multiple ascending dose study that will enroll patients sequentially into Cohorts A through F. All patients 
from each cohort will receive a total of 6 weeks of exposure to SAN-300 or placebo at their assigned dose and 
administration frequency. For the purposes of this protocol, the term “study drug” will include both SAN-300 and 
placebo. 
Safety and tolerability findings will be reviewed in a blinded manner, after each Cohort is fully enrolled and 
subjects have completed the 6-week Treatment Period (defined as completion of the Week 7 visit) to assess the 
study drug safety profile and determine whether enrollment will begin in the next cohort. Any subject who 
withdraws prior to the end of the 6-week Treatment Period will not be replaced and the Study Safety Committee 
will review the data from all subjects regardless of duration of participation in the study. The safety review will 
include, at minimum, the following information: adverse events (AEs); safety laboratory results; vital sign 
measurements; and reasons for premature study withdrawal. 
The decision to begin enrollment in the next cohorts will be based upon the results of the safety review. In 
addition, based on the findings from the safety review, the Sponsor may elect to modify the dose in the next 
cohort to a lower dose or terminate any further dose escalation. 
Individual patient dosing will be stopped if the patient experiences any of the following: a confirmed reduction in 
absolute neutrophil count (ANC) to < 1.0 x 103/µL; a clinically significant atypical or opportunistic infection 
(including those listed in Appendix 1); or a clinically significant adverse event related to study participation, in the 
opinion of the investigator. Study enrollment will be temporarily halted if any of the following occur: two or more 
patients in the study experience a confirmed reduction in ANC to < 1.0 x 103/µL, any one patient experiences a 
clinically significant atypical or opportunistic infection (including those listed in Appendix 1), or any other 
significant safety risk occurs, as noted by the Sponsor.  Resumption of study enrollment will be contingent upon 
further safety review. 
All patients will attend a minimum of 10 study visits: one Screening Visit, seven visits during the Treatment Period, 
and two follow-up visits. Additionally, all enrolled patients will be required to visit the clinic between certain study 
drug administrations for blood draws for the assessment of PK/PD endpoints. Patients are expected to remain on 
their existing, background RA regimen for at least the duration of the Follow-up Period. For a more detailed list of 
individual assessments, refer to the Schedule of Assessments in Appendix 2 and the Specialty PK and PD 
Laboratory Testing Schedule in Appendix 3. 
Screening: Between Days -21 and -1. Informed consent will be obtained before any study specific procedures are 
performed.  Eligibility assessments will be performed. 
Treatment Period: Days 1 to 43. Baseline assessments and measurements will be made before dosing with 
study drug.  Patients will receive SC injections of study drug as follows: 
• 
For all cohorts, patients randomized to receive placebo will be administered a total of six once-weekly 
injections of placebo on Days 1, 8, 15, 22, 29, and 36. 
• 
In Cohorts A, B, E and F, patients randomized to receive SAN-300 will be administered a total of six 
once-weekly injections of study drug on Days 1, 8, 15, 22, 29, and 36. 
• 
In Cohorts C and D, patients randomized to receive SAN-300 will be administered a total of three 
every-other-week injections of SAN-300 on Days 1, 15, and 29 and will be administered a total of three 
every-other-week injections of placebo on Days 8, 22, and 36. 
 
Study assessments and measurements will be performed on Days 1, 8, 15, 22, 29, 36, and 43. Patients will also 
visit the clinic between study drug administration visits for the assessment of PK/PD endpoints. The primary and 
secondary efficacy endpoints will be assessed at the End-of-Treatment Visit on Day 43. 
Follow-up Period: Days 43 to 71. Study patients will return for follow-up visits on Days 57 and 71 for safety and 
efficacy assessments. The Exit Visit will occur on Day 71. Patients who withdraw early from the study must 
return to the clinic to complete the Exit Visit assessments.

(Cohorts A, B, C, D, E and F) will be administered the appropriate weight-based volume dose of SAN-300 or 
matching volume of placebo in SC injections. 
 
Duration of Treatment: 
The total duration of study participation will be up to approximately 13 weeks. Patients will be screened for 
participation within 3 weeks of dosing (Days -21 to -1). The Treatment Period will consist of injections of SAN-300 
or placebo over a period of 6 weeks, concluding with the End-of-Treatment Visit (Days 1 to 43). The Follow-up 
Period will consist of an additional 4 weeks (Days 43 to 71). 
 
Safety Assessments: 
Safety assessments will consist of the following: physical examinations, vital sign measurements, 12-lead 
electrocardiograms (ECGs), laboratory parameters, AEs, and concomitant therapy use. 
 
Pharmacokinetic Assessments: 
Pharmacokinetic parameters for SAN-300 will be estimated using a population based approach with nonlinear 
mixed-effect modeling, in accordance with the FDA Draft Guidance on Population Pharmacokinetics (1999). In 
addition, exploratory assessments of linearity across doses/regimens, accumulation after repeated dosing and 
pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic relationships will be performed. 
 
Pharmacodynamic Assessments: 
PD parameters will consist of VLA-1 receptor occupancy (VLA-1 saturation assay); an immunophenotyping panel 
(CD3, CD4, CD8, CD14, CD19, CD45, CD45RO, and CD49α); CRP; and cytokines (interferon-gamma [IFNγ], 
tumor necrosis factor-alpha [TNFα], interleukin-6 [IL-6]). 
 
Efficacy Assessments: 
Efficacy evaluations will consist of changes from baseline in the Disease Activity Score with 28-joint count using 
CRP (DAS28-CRP), ACR Core Set Measurements, the Health Assessment Questionnaire – Disability Index 
(HAQ-DI), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the hand and wrist most clinically affected by RA. Each 
MRI will be scored using the Outcome Measures in Rheumatology Clinical Trials (OMERACT) RA MRI scoring 
(RAMRIS) system. 
Primary Efficacy Endpoint:

Statistical Methods: 
All endpoints in this study will be summarized by descriptive statistics. Descriptive statistics for continuous 
variables will include the mean, standard deviation, median, first and third quartiles, minimum, and maximum; 
categorical variables will be presented as counts and percentages. All statistical tests will be conducted at the 
two-sided α = 0.05 level of significance. All tests of binomial proportions will be conducted using the chi-square 
test unless more than one cell in a 2 x 2 table has an expected value of < 5, in which case the Fisher’s Exact Test 
will be used. All tests of continuous variables will be conducted using the Wilcoxon Rank-Sum Test. For all 
efficacy endpoints, patients will be analyzed according to the treatment to which they were randomized. For all 
safety endpoints, patients will be analyzed according to the treatment they received. Parameters presented by 
“treatment group” will compare the 6 patients on SAN-300 from each cohort with the 10 pooled patients on 
placebo. 
Safety: 
All AEs will be coded using the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA). The number and 
percentages of patients reporting at least one occurrence of each AE will be tabulated by system organ class and 
preferred term. The number and percentages of patients reporting at least one occurrence of each AE by system 
organ class and preferred term will also be tabulated by severity and by the relationship to study drug.  For 
multiple occurrences of the same AE in a patient that differ in severity, the AE with the highest level of severity will 
be tabulated. For multiple occurrences of the same AE in a patient that differ in relationship to study drug (e.g., 
related and not related), the AE will be tabulated as related. All AEs for all patients will be presented in a data 
listing. 
All other safety parameters will be summarized using descriptive statistics and presented by time point and 
treatment group (6 active patients from each cohort and 10 pooled patients on placebo). All other safety 
parameters will be presented for individual patients in data listings. 
Pharmacokinetics: 
Population pharmacokinetic parameter estimates for SAN-300 will be presented by treatment groups in a tabular 
format as described in the Population Pharmacokinetic/Pharmacodynamic Analysis Plan, which will be finalized 
prior to data analysis. 
Pharmacodynamics 
PD parameters will be summarized using descriptive statistics and presented by time point and treatment group in 
tabular format. PD parameters for individual patients will be presented in data listings. Time-dependent PD 
parameters will be presented in figure format. PK/PD modeling will be conducted as described in the Population 
Pharmacokinetic/Pharmacodynamic Analysis Plan. 
Efficacy: 
Efficacy will be compared for the SAN-300 dose groups (0.5, 1.0, 2.0 and 4.0mg/kg once-weekly and 2.0 and 
4.0 mg/kg every other week) and the pooled placebo group. 
The DAS28-CRP and HAQ-DI will be calculated and presented by time point and treatment group. The mean 
change from baseline to the End-of-Treatment Visit for DAS28-CRP will be compared across treatment groups 
using the Wilcoxon Rank-Sum Test. The percentages of patients achieving a DAS28-CRP ≤ 3.2 and < 2.6 will be 
compared across treatment groups using the chi-square test. 
All components of the ACR Core Set will be summarized using descriptive statistics and presented by time point 
and treatment group. The percentages of patients achieving ACR20, ACR50, or ACR70 responses will be 
compared across treatment groups using the chi-square test. 
MRI data will be summarized across the treatment groups for each time point. All MRI data will be presented for 
individual patients in data listings. 
All efficacy assessments will be presented for individual patients in data listings. 
Additional analyses may be performed, as needed, to fully evaluate potential efficacy signals and evidence of 
clinical benefit. 
Other Laboratory Values: 
All other laboratory parameters will be summarized using descriptive statistics and presented by time point and 
treatment group.  All other laboratory parameters will be presented for individual patients in data listings. 
Laboratory parameters will be presented in figure format.

1 
INTRODUCTION 
Santarus is developing SAN-300 (previously known as BG00004) as a potential new therapy for the 
treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). SAN-300 is a recombinant humanized murine antibody directed 
against very late antigen 1 (VLA-1; also known as α1β1 integrin). 
 
1.1 
Role of VLA-1 in Inflammation 
 
Inhibition of the human VLA-1 pathway using a specific monoclonal antibody such as SAN-300 is 
expected to interfere with VLA-1-dependent cellular functions, which are thought to be critical in the 
pathogenesis of RA. VLA-1 is expressed on activated cells, including T cells (specifically the subset of 
activated peripheral effector memory T cells), monocytes, macrophages, and natural killer cells. 
Elevated numbers of VLA-1+ cells have been observed in the synovial fluid taken from RA patients. 
Data suggest that VLA-1 function is critical to the migration, retention, and proliferation of these cells at 
sites of inflammation, thereby resulting in secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines including tumor 
necrosis factor-α (TNFα) and interferon-γ (IFNγ). VLA-1-mediated adhesion has also been 
demonstrated to inhibit macrophage exit from inflammatory lesions (Becker, 2013). 
 
Consistent with a role for VLA-1 in the pathogenesis of RA, complete or partial loss of VLA-1 function is 
associated with a decrease in disease severity in models of acute and chronic inflammation. 
 
SAN-300 prevents the VLA-1 molecules on the surface of activated effector memory T cells and 
activated monocytes/macrophages from binding to their ligands in the extracellular matrix, primarily 
collagens and laminin. Thus, in RA patients, it is anticipated that blocking VLA-1/collagen interactions 
with a VLA-1–specific monoclonal antibody (SAN-300) will decrease the presence of VLA-1-expressing 
cells in chronically inflamed joints by inhibiting the migration, retention, proliferation, and survival of 
these cells at areas of inflammation. There is also evidence to specifically suggest that blockade of 
VLA-1 may be a useful treatment for those patients whose disease is inadequately controlled by 
anti-TNF therapies, which is an area of high unmet medical need (Ben-Horin, 2007). 
 
1.2 
Nonclinical Studies of Anti-VLA-1 Antibodies 
 
1.2.1 
Pharmacology 
 
SAN-300 binds to the I domain of the human α1 integrin subunit with high affinity at low SAN-300 
concentrations. This binding gives SAN-300 specificity for α1β1 integrin (VLA-1), as α1 integrin only 
associates with β1 integrin and no other β subunits (Pribila, 2004). 
 
Anti-mouse VLA-1 antibodies have been shown to be effective in murine models of arthritis, including 
murine anti-collagen II mAb arthritis, murine collagen-induced arthritis, and rat adjuvant arthritis. 
Anti-VLA-1 antibodies have also been shown to be effective in a variety of other inflammatory disease 
models including colitis, psoriasis, corneal transplant rejection, asthma, and atherosclerosis. The 
efficacy demonstrated in these studies is thought to be mediated through blockade of T-cell and/or 
monocyte/macrophage migration into and retention and proliferation at sites of inflammation. 
 
1.2.2 
Pharmacokinetics 
 
The in vivo pharmacokinetic (PK) profiles of SAN-300 and the anti-murine VLA-1 antibodies Ha31/8 
(hamster anti-murine VLA-1 mAb) and mHa31/8 (murinized Ha31/8) have been examined in the

cynomolgus monkey and the mouse, respectively. The metabolism and elimination of SAN-300 is 
expected to be similar to that of endogenous human antibodies. Both SAN-300 and the anti-murine 
VLA-1 antibodies (mHa31/8 or Ha31/8) exhibited dose-dependent PK characteristics. In cynomolgus 
monkeys, SAN-300 half-life (T1/2) increased with dose, ranging from 38.4 hours at 5 mg/kg to 154 hours 
at 50 mg/kg. SAN-300 showed bioavailability of approximately 50% to 60% by subcutaneous (SC) or 
intramuscular (IM) administration in the monkey, indicating SC and IM are viable alternative dosing 
routes for clinical use. Monkey anti-SAN-300 antibodies were observed upon repeat dosing in 
cynomolgus monkeys. 
 
1.2.3 
Preclinical Toxicology 
 
The in vivo toxicologic assessments were performed in the cynomolgus monkey as the most suitable 
species. SAN-300 has similar affinity for human and non-human primate VLA-1, and thus it is 
reasonable to expect the toxicity of SAN-300 in the cynomolgus monkey to be predictive for humans. 
 
In single-dose toxicity studies, SAN-300 was well tolerated at doses of up to 50 mg/kg via intravenous 
(IV) infusion. In a subsequent 3-month study, repeated twice-weekly administration of SAN-300 at 
doses up to 20 mg/kg IV or SC had no direct effects on mortality, clinical signs, physical examinations, 
cytokine levels, body weights, food consumption, ophthalmologic examinations, electrocardiography, 
clinical chemistry results, urine chemistry results, organ weights, macroscopic or microscopic 
observations, or the generation of antibody responses to foreign antigens. However, recrudescence of 
Plasmodium infection was observed in 6/60 animals, and Trichomonas parasites were observed in the 
gastrointestinal tract of 2/60 animals. As a result of these findings, a no observed adverse effect level 
(NOAEL) was not established in this study, and further studies were initiated. 
 
A second repeat-dose primate toxicology study was performed, this time using animals that had been 
pre-screened by PCR analysis for Plasmodium and excluding those animals that had a positive test 
result. There was no toxicity related to the test article at any dose level used in this study. Based on 
these results, the NOAEL for SAN-300 in male and female cynomolgus monkeys under the conditions 
of this study was considered to be ≤ 5 mg/kg. 
 
In addition, a set of host-resistance, immune-challenge studies were performed in mice. These studies 
indicated that exposure to treatment with the anti-murine VLA-1 antibody mHa31/8 had no specific 
inhibitory effects on the clearance of the bacterial and viral infections tested. 
 
1.3 
Clinical Experience with SAN-300 
 
A total of 66 healthy volunteer subjects and two patients with active RA participated in Phase 1 Study 
C2011-0301 (301), in which 45 healthy subjects and one patient with active RA received single doses 
of SAN-300 via IV infusion or SC injection. Detectable serum SAN-300 concentrations were not 
observed in the majority of subjects receiving SAN-300 0.03 mg/kg to 0.3 mg/kg IV. In subjects 
receiving SAN-300 0.6 to 2.0 mg/kg, there was a trend towards increasing serum SAN-300 
concentrations with increasing dose. Receptor occupancy was essentially complete (≥ 90%) over a 
wide range of doses tested for both the IV and SC formulations (by 72 hours postdose for > 0.8 mg/kg 
IV and by 24 hours postdose for 2.0 to 6.0 mg/kg SC). Receptor occupancy was also durable, with 
median occupancy remaining at approximately ≥ 70% at Day 8 for all dose groups administered 
SAN-300 SC.

SAN-300 was generally well tolerated in this study. Mild to moderate infusion reactions occurred upon 
IV administration of SAN-300 doses from 0.8 to 2.0 mg/kg; all events improved with or without 
treatment by 72 hours and none led to withdrawal from the study.  Among subjects receiving SC 
SAN-300 at doses ranging from 2.0 to 6.0 mg/kg, headaches and mild injection-site reactions were 
most common. No severe or serious infections were reported in any group. No clinically meaningful 
changes from baseline were observed after SAN-300 dosing for biochemistry parameters and for the 
majority of hematologic parameters tested. Transient, Grade I/II reductions from baseline in absolute 
neutrophil count (ANC) were observed in 12 subjects who received SAN-300. None of these cases 
were associated with concurrent infections, and all resolved. Two subjects tested positive for 
treatment-emergent anti-SAN-300 antibodies; no immunogenicity-related adverse events were 
observed in these subjects. The safety findings from this Phase 1 study support further development 
with the proposed multiple ascending dosing regimen in patients with RA. 
 
The primary objective of the Phase 1 study was to evaluate the safety and tolerability of single 
ascending doses of SAN-300, and the study mainly enrolled healthy subjects. In addition, efficacy 
parameters were collected and analyzed in two RA patients. These RA patients received either a 
single dose of 2.0 mg/kg SAN-300 or placebo IV over 4 hours and were evaluated in the clinic for 
24 hours and at follow-up assessments on Days 3, 8, 15, 22, and 29.  The RA patient who received 
SAN-300 experienced a reduction in DAS28-CRP from 3.97 at baseline to 2.31 (-1.66) at Day 15 and to 
3.05 (-0.92) at Day 29 and met the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) criteria for ACR50 at 
these time points. The RA patient who received placebo started with a baseline DAS28-CRP of 3.47, 
experienced a reduction to 3.24 (-0.24) at Day 15, followed by an increase to 3.77 (+0.30) at Day 29, 
and did not meet criteria for ACR20 any time point. However, any conclusions regarding efficacy drawn 
from this small sample of RA patients must necessarily be limited.

INVESTIGATIONAL PLAN 
3.1 
Overall Study Design and Plan 
 
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multiple ascending dose study to 
evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, PD, preliminary efficacy, and immunogenicity of SC administration 
of SAN-300 in five cohorts of patients with active RA. The study will recruit approximately 40 patients 
(30 SAN-300; 10 placebo) with active RA to evaluate repeat doses of SAN-300 compared with placebo. 
The study will be conducted at multiple study centers in the United States. 
 
A study design schematic describing the progression of cohorts in this ascending-dose study is 
provided in Figure 1.  Refer to Section 5.2 for the method of treatment group assignment. 
 
The study will initially enroll patients in Cohort A, in which patients will receive six once-weekly SC 
administrations of 0.5 mg/kg SAN-300 or placebo. After Cohort A has completed the 6-week Treatment 
Period (defined as completion of the Week 7 visit), a Study Safety Committee will conduct a blinded 
Safety Committee Review (including, but not limited to; adverse events (AEs), safety laboratory 
assessments, vital sign assessments, and reasons for premature study withdrawal) for all patients.  If 
the Study Safety Committee determines that the safety profile is acceptable, then Cohort B can begin 
enrollment. Subsequent Safety Committee Reviews will take place following each dosing cohort. If the 
Study Safety Committee determines that the safety profile continues to be acceptable, then enrollment 
can begin into the next cohort. 
 
Any subject who withdraws prior to the end of the 6-week Treatment Period will not be replaced and the 
Study Safety Committee will review the data from all subjects regardless of duration of participation in 
the study. 
 
Based on the findings of the Study Safety Committee, the Sponsor may elect to modify the dose in the 
next cohort to a lower dose or terminate any further dose escalation. 
 
For the purposes of this protocol, the term “study drug” will include both SAN-300 and placebo. 
 
Figure 2 provides a study schematic indicating visit structure for each individual cohort. After initial 
Screening, eligible patients will return to the study site at weekly intervals throughout the Treatment 
Period for study drug administration and safety, PK, PD, efficacy, and other assessments. Enrolled 
patients will also return to the study site between study drug administration visits for the assessment of 
PK/PD endpoints. Primary and secondary efficacy endpoints will be assessed at the End-of-Treatment 
Visit on Day 43. During the 4-week Follow-up Period, patients will return to the study site at 2 weeks 
and 4 weeks after the end of the Treatment Period for additional assessments.

Screening: Between Days -21 and -1. Informed consent will be obtained before any study specific 
procedures are performed.  Eligibility assessments will be performed. 
 
Treatment Period: Days 1 to 43. Baseline assessments and measurements will be performed before 
dosing with study drug.  Patients will receive SC injections of study drug as follows: 
• For all cohorts, patients randomized to receive placebo will be administered a total of six 
once-weekly injections of placebo on Days 1, 8, 15, 22, 29, and 36. 
• In Cohorts A, B, E and F, patients randomized to receive SAN-300 will be administered a total of six 
weekly injections of SAN-300 on Days 1, 8, 15, 22, 29, and 36. 
• In Cohorts C and D, patients randomized to receive SAN-300 will be administered a total of three 
every-other-week injections of SAN-300 on Days 1, 15, and 29 and will be administered a total of 
three every-other-week injections of placebo on Days 8, 22, and 36. 
 
Study assessments and measurements will be performed on Days 1, 8, 15, 22, 29, 36, and 43. 
Patients will also visit the clinic between study drug administration visits for the assessment of PK/PD 
endpoints. The primary and secondary efficacy endpoints will be assessed at the End-of-Treatment 
Visit on Day 43. 
 
Follow-up Period: Days 43 to 71. Study patients will return for follow-up visits on Days 57 and 71 for 
safety and efficacy assessments. The Exit Visit will occur on Day 71. Patients who withdraw early from 
the study must return to the clinic to complete the Exit Visit assessments. 
 
Study procedures at each visit are described in the Schedule of Assessments, provided as Appendix 2.

3.2 
Rationale for Study Design and Control Group 
 
3.2.1 
Rationale for Dosing Regimen 
 
The planned doses (0.5 mg/kg once weekly through 4.0 mg/kg every week) and duration of study 
treatment are based on the observed safety, PK, and PD profile of SAN-300 (including VLA-1 receptor 
occupancy) in Phase 1 single-dose Study 301 and data from up to 3 months of dosing in non-human 
primate studies (Section 1.2.3). Based on receptor occupancy data, SAN-300 2.0 mg/kg SC resulted in 
durable VLA-1 receptor occupancy through Day 8 and the 4.0 mg/kg SC dose extended this receptor 
occupancy through approximately Day 15. These results suggest that weekly or every-other-week 
dosing may be sufficient to maintain a therapeutic effect. 
 
In Study 301, single doses of SAN-300 up to 6.0 mg/kg SC were tolerated in a healthy volunteer 
population. To ensure patient safety, the design of the current multiple ascending dose study stipulates 
a Safety Review to occur after each dosing Cohort. The overall drug exposure in each cohort is as 
follows:

F

Abbreviations:  QOW = every other week; QW = every week 
 
 
Both weekly and every-other-week dosing will be explored to investigate appropriate dosing parameters 
for SAN-300. Should every-other-week dosing be a viable option for treatment of patients with RA, this 
dosing regimen would decrease patient burden. 
 
3.2.2 
Rationale for Control Group 
 
In every cohort, 6 patients will be randomized to receive SAN-300 and 2 patients will be randomized to 
receive placebo. Placebo injections will be the best control for potential injection-site AEs, which were 
observed in the Phase 1 Study 301. Regardless of the cohort, all patients randomized to receive 
placebo will be administered a total of six once-weekly injections of placebo. In Cohorts C and D, 
patients randomized to receive SAN-300 will be administered three every-other-week injections of SAN- 
300 and three every-other-week injections of placebo on alternating weeks. In this way, cohorts with 
patients receiving every-other-week study drug injections will have matched placebo controls while, at 
the same time, patients on placebo from all six cohorts (totaling N = 10) can be pooled for safety and 
efficacy analyses. 
 
3.2.3 
Rationale for Study Population 
 
The proposed population for this study includes patients between 18 and 75 years of age who have 
been diagnosed with RA for at least 6 months, have a minimum of six swollen and six tender joints, and 

Santarus, Inc. 
SAN-300 
Amendment 5:  28 Mar 2016

Clinical Trial Protocol: C2013-0302 
 
 
 
 
have previously demonstrated an inadequate response or unacceptable toxicity from at least one 
traditional or biologic disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drug (DMARD). Patients will be required to 
remain on a stable background dose of methotrexate for ≥ 6 weeks before randomization and during 
the study. These criteria are intended to identify an appropriate study population for this initial multiple- 
dose experience with SAN-300, are consistent with ACR recommendations for the use of biologic 
DMARDs in patients with RA (Singh, 2012), and are aligned with the draft FDA industry guidance for 
the clinical development of new therapies for RA (FDA, 2013). The proposed patient population is also 
similar to that described in the published literature for several recent biologic DMARD programs 
(Keystone, 2009; Fleishmann, 2012; Weinblatt, 2010). Recent clinical studies for biologic DMARD 
agents for RA have enrolled patients with similar inclusion criteria, including established diagnosis of 
RA for at least 3 to 6 months, background therapy with methotrexate at comparable doses as those 
proposed in this study, similar numbers of affected joints (usually six or more tender and swollen joints), 
and previous intolerance and/or inadequate response to a limited number of DMARDs. Methotrexate 
was also selected as a required background medication because of its widespread use in RA and the 
high likelihood that SAN-300, if eventually approved for commercial use, would be frequently used in 
combination with methotrexate. 
 
There is no sample-size calculation, as this study is not intended to be powered to demonstrate 
efficacy.  Results from this study will be used to guide the design of future efficacy and safety studies. 
 
3.3 
Study Duration 
 
The total duration of study participation will be up to approximately 13 weeks. Patients will be screened 
for participation within 3 weeks of dosing (Days -21 to -1). The Treatment Period will consist of 
injections of study drug over a period of 6 weeks and conclude with the End-of-Treatment Visit (Days 1 
to 43).  The Follow-up Period will consist of an additional 4 weeks (Days 43 to 71). 
 
3.4 
Stopping Rules for Individual Patient Dosing and for Study Enrollment 
 
The investigator must notify the Clinical Project Manager immediately (via telephone or email) if a 
patient experiences any of the events listed in the individual patient dosing or study enrollment stopping 
rules. 
 
3.4.1 
Stopping Rules for Individual Patient Dosing 
 
The dosing of an individual patient will be stopped under the following circumstances: 
• The patient experiences a confirmed reduction in ANC to < 1.0 × 103/μL. 
• The patient experiences a clinically significant atypical or opportunistic infection (including those 
listed in Appendix 1). 
• The patient experiences a clinically significant adverse event related to study participation, in the 
opinion of the investigator or Sponsor. 
 
3.4.2 
Stopping Rules for Study Enrollment 
 
New patient enrollment into the study will be temporarily halted, pending review by the Study Safety 
Committee, under the following circumstances: 
• Two or more patients in the study experience a confirmed reduction in ANC to < 1.0 × 103/μL.

• Any one patient experiences a clinically significant atypical or opportunistic infection (including 
those listed in  Appendix 1). 
• Any other significant safety risk occurs, as noted by the Sponsor. 
3.4.3 
Resumption of  Study Enrollment 
 
Resumption of study enrollment will be contingent upon review and approval by the Study Safety 
Committee. 
 
3.5 
Study Safety Committee 
 
The Study Safety Committee will be composed of, at a minimum, a Sponsor representative and two 
independent expert physicians. This committee will review ongoing blinded study safety data, decide 
whether dose escalation is appropriate (see Section 3.1 for the role of safety reviews in dose 
escalation), recommend any modifications in dosing, and evaluate whether resumption of individual 
patient dosing or study enrollment is permissible after any interruption triggered by the stopping rules 
for patient dosing and for study enrollment (see Section 3.4).

TREATMENTS TO BE ADMINISTERED 
5.1 
Planned Dose Cohorts 
 
Eligible patients will be enrolled into a dose cohort and randomized (3:1) to receive either SAN-300 via 
SC injection over 6 weeks or a matching volume of placebo. More than one SC injection may be 
required (maximum volume of 1.2 mL per SC injection) depending on the total dose administered and 
the weight of the individual patient.  Dosing by cohort is provided in Table 2.

Safety and tolerability findings will be reviewed in a blinded manner for all patients in a cohort after the 
6-week Treatment Period to determine whether or not enrollment will begin in the next cohort. Any 
subject who withdraws prior to the end of the 6-week Treatment Period will not be replaced and the 
Study Safety Committee will review the data from all subjects regardless of duration of participation in 
the study. The safety review will include, at minimum, the following information: AEs; safety laboratory 
results; vital sign measurements; and reasons for premature study withdrawal. 
 
The decision to begin enrollment in the next cohort will be based upon the results of the safety review. 
In addition, based on the findings of the Study Safety Committee, the Sponsor may elect to modify the 
dose in the next cohort to a lower dose or terminate any further dose escalation. 
 
Refer to Section 3.4 for patient and study stopping rules. 
 
5.2 
Method of Assigning Patients to Treatment Groups 
 
Fixed allocation will be used to randomize patients in a ratio of three on SAN-300 to one on placebo 
within each cohort of approximately 8 total patients. 
 
Cohort A will be enrolled first, with 6 patients randomly assigned to receive SAN-300 and 2 patients 
randomly assigned to receive matching placebo in two blocks of four patients (three on SAN-300, one 
on placebo). After Cohort A has completed the 6-week Treatment Period, a Study Safety Committee 
will conduct a blinded safety review. If the Study Safety Committee determines that the safety profile is 
acceptable, then Cohort B can begin enrollment. Additional Safety Committee reviews will occur 
following completion of the 6-week Treatment Period for each of the subsequently enrolled cohorts.

Randomization will be central and occur after a patient has been deemed eligible. Randomization will 
be performed by Interactive Voice/Web Response System (IVRS/IWRS). The unblinded pharmacist or 
designated study center personnel assigned to this role will be responsible for obtaining the treatment 
assigned to each patient in each cohort by contacting the IVRS/IWRS system by phone or Web site. 
This unblinded person will then prepare the study drug and provide it to the Investigator. The study 
drug will then be administered by qualified, blinded study personnel on the day of or within 24 hours 
after randomization. 
 
5.3 
Blinding 
 
Study drug will be prepared by unblinded pharmacy staff or designated study center personnel. 
 
The randomization code that assigns treatments to patients will be available in confidence only to 
personnel responsible for preparation of the study drug for administration. Except in circumstances of 
immediate threat to patient safety (e.g., medical emergencies) detailed in Section 5.4, the code will not 
be broken until after all data entry is completed, the validity of the data is checked, all queries are 
resolved, the statistical analyses are defined, and the database is locked. 
 
5.4 
Breaking the Blind 
 
Only in the case of an emergency, when knowledge of the study drug is essential for the clinical 
management or welfare of the subject, will the investigator be allowed to unblind a subject’s treatment 
assignment. To discuss breaking of the blind please contact the Clinical Project Manager at Santarus,

CONCOMITANT THERAPY 
The efficacy and safety of immunization during periods of SAN-300 therapy have not been adequately 
studied. It is recommended that a patient’s vaccination record and possible vaccination requirements 
be reviewed and, if necessary, the patient be administered any required vaccination or booster at least 
4 weeks before randomization. Review of the patient’s immunization status and their need for the 
following vaccinations is recommended: tetanus; diphtheria; influenza; pneumoccocal polysaccharide; 
varicella; measles, mumps, and rubella; and hepatitis B vaccines. Immunization with a live vaccine is 
specifically prohibited within 4 weeks before randomization and throughout the study. 
Folic acid ≥ 5 mg/week (or an equivalent dose of folinic acid) is required for all patients. 
Patients must remain on a stable dose of methotrexate (≥ 15 mg/week and ≤ 25 mg/week) for 
≥ 6 weeks before randomization; a lower dosage of methotrexate (≥ 10 mg/week) is allowed if there is 
documented intolerance to dosages of ≥ 15 mg/week. If taking hydroxychloroquine in combination with 
methotrexate, the patient must remain on a dose of ≤ 400 mg/day hydroxychloroquine that has been 
stable for ≥ 6 weeks before randomization. Note: If discontinued from hydroxychloroquine, the patient 
must remain on the revised treatment regimen for at least 4 weeks before randomization. 
 
All other DMARDs are to be discontinued for at least the following periods of time: 
 
• Oral DMARDs and etanercept at least 4 weeks before randomization 
• Rituximab and any other B-cell/lymphocyte-depleting therapy at least 1 year before randomization 
• All other biologic DMARDs, including infliximab, adalimumab, golimumab, certolizumab pegol,

cholestyramine three times daily for 3 days to be eligible for participation 
 
Patients receiving treatment with prednisone (or equivalent dose of another corticosteroid) that is either 
over 10.0 mg/day or is not stable for at least 4 weeks before randomization are to be excluded. 
Intra-articular corticosteroid injection(s) are not permitted within 4 weeks of randomization and should 
not be given during the course of the study. 
 
Patients receiving treatment with opioids or other narcotics are to be excluded.  Note:  Patients 
receiving NSAIDS or the following opioids (tramadol, codeine and oral acetaminophen/codeine 
combination) at stable doses for at least 2 weeks prior to randomization will be eligible for inclusion. 
 
Patients are to remain on their stable RA treatment regimen (i.e., the RA treatment they are receiving at 
the time of randomization) throughout the course of the study, including the Follow-up Period. 
Concomitant use of other anti-arthritic treatments, including approved or experimental agents, 
therapies, or devices is not permitted. 
 
All patients should be instructed not to start taking any new medications or therapies, including 
non-prescribed drugs, unless they have received permission from the Investigator. Any medication and 
any non-drug therapy or procedure used starting from signing of the Informed Consent Form (ICF) until

PATIENT WITHDRAWAL AND STUDY TERMINATION 
7.1 
Reasons for Withdrawal 
 
Participation in the study is strictly voluntary. A patient has the right to withdraw from the study at any 
time for any reason.  If he/she chooses to withdraw, the patient must inform the Investigator 
immediately and will be asked to make an Early Withdrawal Visit. If feasible, it is also highly 
recommended that the patient schedule a Follow-up Visit for a safety evaluation 4 weeks after their last 
dose of study drug.  The Investigator has the right to terminate participation of any patient at any time if 
it is deemed to be in the patient’s best interest. The reason and circumstances for premature 
discontinuation will be documented in the patient’s electronic case report form (eCRF). Possible 
examples for reasons of premature study withdrawal include: 
• Withdrawal of consent 
• Intolerable AE 
• Intake of non-permitted concomitant medication 
• Significant non-compliance with the protocol 
• Positive pregnancy test in a female patient 
• Clinical or administrative reason consistent with the requirements of the protocol at the 
Investigator’s discretion 
• Clinically significant worsening of RA that, in the opinion of the Investigator, requires immediate, 
specific medical treatment 
 
7.2 
Procedures for Early Withdrawal 
 
When it is determined that a patient should withdraw from the study, the reason(s) must be recorded, 
final assessments must be scheduled, and provisions for the continued treatment of RA within the 
standards of care must be discussed with the patient. Safety and study endpoint evaluations for the 
Early Withdrawal Visit (see Sections 10.2.6 and 10.3.1) will be performed as soon as possible after the 
decision is made to withdraw the patient. 
 
Additional interventions (concomitant medications or therapies) may be prescribed as needed by the 
patient. The patient’s history and preferences should be considered and discussed when prescribing a 
new medication for RA. 
 
Appropriate medical follow-up with the patient should be conducted as clinically indicated after the Early 
Withdrawal Visit. Telephone contacts between the patient and the study staff should be conducted as 
frequently as needed. 
 
If the patient is found to have an AE or clinically significant laboratory abnormality, the patient will be 
followed until the event/abnormality is resolved, or until the Investigator determines that further 
follow-up is no longer medically indicated. The responsible IEC/IRB should be notified of any AEs 
and/or circumstances leading to early withdrawal. 

Santarus, Inc.

Clinical Trial Protocol: C2013-0302 
 
 
 
 
If a patient is withdrawn from study participation because of pregnancy, Product Safety and IEC/IRB 
should be informed by the site within 24 hours of awareness. All pregnancies occurring in female 
patients must be reported. The pregnancy will be reported according to the procedures provided in 
Section 9.8. Should the patient have a spontaneous abortion or complications during the pregnancy, 
then the event must be captured as an SAE. Sites are obligated to follow the patient until the outcome 
of the pregnancy is known. The patient and/or her treating physician should be encouraged to report 
any future medical problems the child develops of which they become aware that are considered 
related to the study drug. 
 
Patients who are randomized and who subsequently withdraw from the study will not be replaced. 
 
7.3 
Sponsor’s Termination of Study 
 
Santarus reserves the right to discontinue the study at any time for clinical or administrative reasons. 
 
If the study is prematurely terminated or suspended for any reason, the Investigator must inform all 
study patients currently receiving study drug and assure appropriate follow-up. Santarus should 
promptly inform the Investigators/institutions and the regulatory authorities of the termination or 
suspension and the reason(s) for the termination or suspension in accordance with applicable 
regulations. The IEC/IRB should also be informed promptly and provided with the reason(s) for the 
termination or suspension by Santarus or by the Investigator/institution, as specified by the applicable 
regulatory requirement(s).

Pharmacokinetic Assessments 
 
For patients in each cohort, serum SAN-300 concentrations will be determined from blood samples 
collected according to the Schedule of Assessments provided in Appendix 2 and the Specialty PK and 
PD Laboratory Testing Schedule provided in Appendix 3. Pharmacokinetic parameters for SAN-300 
will be estimated using a population based approach with nonlinear mixed-effect modeling, in 
accordance with the FDA Draft Guidance on Population Pharmacokinetics (1999). Population PK 
methods will be used to estimate the relevant PK parameters for the population as well as for each 
patient who received SAN-300 and had sufficient blood samples in which SAN-300 was quantifiable. 
The details of the analysis will be documented in a Population Pharmacokinetic/Pharmacodynamic 
Analysis Plan. 
 
8.7 
Pharmacodynamic Assessments 
 
The following PD parameters will be determined for all patients from blood samples collected at the 
same time as PK blood samples according to the Schedule of Assessments provided in Appendix 2 
and the Specialty PK and PD Laboratory Testing Schedule provided in Appendix 3: 
• VLA-1 receptor occupancy 
• An immunophenotyping panel (CD3, CD4, CD8, CD14, CD19, CD45, CD45RO, and CD49α) 
• Cytokines: IFNγ, TNFα, interleukin-6 (IL-6) 
• CRP 
Exploratory PK/PD modeling will be conducted as described in the Population 
Pharmacokinetic/Pharmacodynamic Analysis Plan. 
 
8.8 
Efficacy Assessments 
 
Efficacy assessments will be conducted according to the Schedule of Assessments provided in 
Appendix 2 and will consist of Disease Activity Score for 28-joint count using C-reactive protein 
(DAS28-CRP), ACR Core Set Measurements, Health Assessment Questionnaire Disease Index 
(HAQ-DI), and MRI of the hand and wrist most clinically affected by RA. 
 
8.8.1 
DAS28-CRP Assessment 
 
The DAS28 assessment is a standardized measure of improvement made using four components, two 
made by an assessor, one made by the patient, and one laboratory value (CRP), as shown below: 
• Swollen and tender joint assessment (assessor – refer to Appendix 6) 
• Patient’s global assessment of disease activity (patient) 
• CRP (laboratory test) 
The assessor will be an experienced rheumatology clinical assessor.

Clinical Trial Protocol: C2013-0302 
 
 
 
 
8.8.2 
ACR Core Data Set 
 
The ACR Core Data Set is a standardized measure of arthritis activity consisting of seven measures, 
three made by an assessor, three made by the patient, and one laboratory value (CRP or ESR), as 
shown below: 
• Swollen and tender joint assessment (assessor – refer to Appendix 6) 
• Physician’s global assessment of disease activity (assessor) 
• Patient assessment of pain (patient) 
• Patient’s global assessment of disease activity (patient) 
• Patient’s assessment of physical function as measured by Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ) 
(patient – Refer to Appendix 7) 
• CRP or ESR (laboratory test) 
The assessor will be an experienced rheumatology clinical assessor. 
 
8.8.2.1 
Physician’s Global Assessment of Disease Activity 
 
The physician’s global disease assessment will be documented on a visual analogue scale (VAS) of 
0 to 100 mm, ranging from 0 mm no disease activity to 100 mm (worst disease activity).  The distance 
between the single vertical line marked by the physician will be measured in millimeters (mm) from the 
left end of the scale using a 100 mm ruler that will be provided. To standardize measurements, the 
same person should take the measurement wherever possible throughout the study. 
 
8.8.2.2 
Patient Assessment of Pain 
 
Patients will be asked to rate their current pain intensity on a VAS. The VAS consists of a 100 mm-long 
scale ranging from 0 mm (no pain) to 100 mm (severe pain). The distance between the single vertical 
line marked by the patient will be measured in mm from the left end of the scale by the study staff, 
using the ruler provided. 
 
8.8.2.3 
Patient’s Global Assessment of Disease Activity 
 
Patient’s global disease assessment will be documented on a VAS of 0 mm (no disease activity) to 100 
mm (worst disease activity). The distance between the single vertical line marked by the patient will be 
measured in mm from the left end of the scale by the study staff, using the ruler provided. 
 
A patient is considered to have an ACR20/50/70 response if there is an improvement of 20%/50%/70% 
in all of the following: 
• Swollen joint count (66 joints) 
• Tender joint count (68 joints) and 
• At least three of the following five assessments: 
- 
Patient’s assessment of pain 
- 
Patient’s global assessment of disease activity 
- 
Physician’s global assessment of disease activity 
- 
Patient’s assessment of physical function, as measured by the HAQ-DI 
-

Quality of life will be assessed according to the Schedule of Assessments provided in Appendix 2 using 
the HAQ-DI (Appendix 7). 
 
8.8.4 
Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Hand and Wrist 
 
The requirements for the Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scans are as follows: 
• Magnet strength: 1.5 Tesla 
• The same MRI scanner should be used for all scans of any individual patient throughout the study 
• Region imaged: The hand with the most clinically affected metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joints and 
wrist at screening. Image will include the distal radioulnar joint. The same hand and wrist will be 
assessed for the follow up scan. 
• Sequences will include T1-weighted 3D gradient echo (GRE) coronal scans pre- and 
post-gadolinium contrast, axial T1-weighted GRE scans post-contrast, and coronal STIR 
sequences. 
• Exam time should  last approximately 1 hour, including all patient setup and positioning 
Using a central reader, all MRI scans will be assessed by two experienced rheumatology clinical 
assessors (see Appendix 8 for MRI scoring criteria) and their readings will be averaged to minimize any 
error due to the inherent variability of the MRI scoring process. 
 
8.9 
Other Laboratory Assessments 
 
Additional laboratory parameters will be assessed according to the Schedule of Assessments provided 
in Appendix 2 and will include the following: 
• Anti-SAN-300 antibody 
• Rheumatoid factor (RF), antinuclear antibody (ANA), and anti-citrunillated peptide antibodies 
(ACPA) 
 
8.10 
Assessing Hypersensitivity 
 
For suspected cases of anaphylaxis or hypersensitivity reactions, blood samples will be obtained for 
laboratory assessment of tryptase and histamine concentrations. In addition, Investigators should 
apply the criteria outlined in the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease (NIAID) and the 
Food Allergy and Anaphylaxis Network (FAAN) second symposium on the definition of anaphylaxis 
report (Sampson, 2006), as outlined in Table 4, to assess patients for potential anaphylactic reactions.

Table 4. Clinical Criteria for Diagnosing Anaphylaxis 
Anaphylaxis is highly likely when any one of the following three criteria is fulfilled: 
 
1. Acute onset of an illness (minutes to several hours) with involvement of the skin, mucosal tissue, or both 
(e.g., generalized hives, pruritus or flushing, swollen lips-tongue-uvula) 
AND AT LEAST ONE OF THE FOLLOWING: 
a. Respiratory compromise (e.g., dyspnea, wheeze-bronchospasm, stridor, reduced PEF, hypoxemia) 
b. Reduced BP or associated symptoms of end-organ dysfunction (e.g., hypotonia [collapse], syncope, 
incontinence) 
 
2. Two or more of the following that occur rapidly after exposure to a likely allergen for that patient (minutes to 
several hours): 
a. Involvement of the skin-mucosal tissue (e.g., generalized hives, itch-flush, swollen lips-tongue-uvula) 
b. Respiratory compromise (e.g., dyspnea, wheeze-bronchospasm, stridor, reduced PEF, hypoxemia) 
c. Reduced BP or associated symptoms (e.g., hypotonia [collapse], syncope, incontinence) 
d. Persistent gastrointestinal symptoms (e.g., crampy abdominal pain, vomiting) 
 
3. Reduced BP after exposure to known allergen for that patient (minutes to several hours): 
a. Infants and children: low systolic BP (age specific) or greater than 30% decrease in systolic BP* 
b. Adults: systolic BP of less than 90 mm Hg or greater than 30% decrease from that person’s baseline 
 
PEF = peak expiratory flow; BP = blood pressure. 
*Low systolic blood pressure for children is defined as less than 70 mmHg from 1 month to 1 year, less than 
(70 mm Hg + [2 x age]) from 1 to 10 years, and less than 90 mm Hg from 11 to 17 years.

Appropriateness of Measurements 
 
All procedures used to measure the safety, tolerability, and PK profile of SAN-300 in this study were 
considered by the Sponsor and Investigators to be appropriate and necessary to obtain the required 
safety, tolerability, and PK data for the investigational product. The safety assessments used in this 
study, such as vital signs, ECG, and clinical chemistry and hematology monitoring, are widely used and 
are considered appropriate for monitoring patient health and well-being in this type of study. 
 
The efficacy measures were selected to be generally comparable to published clinical studies in RA. 
The Investigators consider the measures to be standard assessments and endpoints for this disease. 
CRP and ESR measurements reflect the general inflammatory state of a patient and are components of 
the ACR Core Set Measurements. 
 
The PD markers were chosen to allow assessment of the immunological effects of SAN-300. These 
assessments are designed to provide information relevant to their usefulness as biomarkers and 
measures of potential safety and efficacy. Changes in VLA-1 on lymphocytes and monocytes as well 
as changes in the levels of the pro-inflammatory cytokines IFNγ, TNFα, and IL-6 will be useful as 
potential biomarkers and indications of potential efficacy. VLA-1+ leukocytes, TNFα, and IL-6 are 
thought to be important drivers of inflammation in RA; IFNγ is a cytokine secreted by VLA-1+ T cells. 
Changes (specifically, any potential increases) in the levels of IFNγ, TNFα, and IL-6 will also be 
important safety markers.

SAFETY REPORTING 
Santarus maintains a robust pharmacovigilance system comprised of a governance framework and 
standard operating procedures supporting a systematic process for review, evaluation, and 
management of accumulating safety data from clinical trials and other sources to: 
 
• 
Identify a potential new safety signal; 
• 
Ensure that an investigational product’s risks are adequately assessed and communicated to 
investigators, IRBs/ECs, and regulatory bodies during clinical development. 
 
For this study, safety monitoring activities will include but are not limited to: 
 
• 
Review and evaluation of single SAE occurrences in real-time as reported through the SAE 
reporting process as outlined in this section of the protocol; 
 
• 
Review and evaluation, in real-time, of one or more occurrences of an uncommon SAE that is not 
commonly associated with product exposure; 
 
• 
Findings and/or safety data obtained during this study will provide information for the overall review 
of safety that is conducted by Santarus on a routine basis. Santarus will report expeditiously any 
findings from clinical trials (ongoing or completed), epidemiological studies, pooled analysis of 
multiple studies, and findings from animal or in vitro testing that suggest a significant risk in humans 
exposed to the study product. 
Safety data collection for this study begins at the time of the subject’s signing of the informed consent 
according to the operating definitions defined in this section of the protocol. 
 
The Investigator is responsible for reporting all AEs that occur during the study, regardless of their 
relationship to study drug or their clinical significance. 
 
9.1 
Operating Definitions for Assessing Safety 
 
9.1.1 
Adverse Event 
 
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation patient administered a 
study product and which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the treatment. 
 
An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (that could include a clinically significant 
abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a study 
product, without any judgment about causality (i.e., whether or not considered related to the study 
product). 
 
Additionally, an event that is associated with study participation (regardless of administration of or 
relationship to study drug) should be treated as a reportable adverse event for this protocol (e.g., 
complications resulting from the taking of a blood sample or performance of a protocol required 
procedure). 

Santarus, Inc. 
SAN-300 
Amendment 5:  28 Mar 2016 
CONFIDENTIAL 
Clinical Trial Protocol: C2013-0302 
 
 
 
 
An AE does include the following: 
 
• 
Exacerbation or worsening of a pre-existing illness. 
• 
NOTE: if the pre-existing illness is the disease under study, then “exacerbation” refers to 
an unexpected worsening from the condition at baseline. 
• 
Increase in frequency or intensity of a pre-existing episodic event or condition. 
• 
Condition detected or diagnosed after study product administration even though it may have been 
present prior to the start of the study. 
• 
Symptom associated with disease not previously reported by the patient 
 
An AE does not include the following: 
 
• 
Medical or surgical procedures (e.g., surgery, endoscopy, tooth extraction, transfusion) as event 
terms; the condition that led to the procedure is the AE if it meets the definition of an AE. 
• 
Situations where an untoward medical occurrence has not occurred (e.g., hospitalization for 
cosmetic elective surgery; and social and/or convenience admissions). 
• 
Overdose of either study product or concurrent medication without any signs or symptoms. 
• 
Symptoms associated with disease, which are consistent with the patient’s usual clinical course; 
unless the subject experiences worsening of their symptom(s) or the symptom(s) meet the criteria 
for an SAE. Any medical condition present at the time of screening but does not worsen during the 
course of the study should be recorded as medical history. 
 
9.1.2 
Serious Adverse Event 
 
A serious adverse event (SAE) is any AE that fulfills any of the following criteria: 
• Results in death 
• Is life-threatening 
NOTE: the term “life-threatening” refers to an event in which the patient was at risk of death at the 
time of the event; it does not refer to an event which could hypothetically have caused death had it 
been more severe. 
• Requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization 
NOTE: Complications that occur during hospitalization are AEs. If a complication prolongs 
hospitalization or fulfills any other serious criteria, the event is serious. “In-patient” hospitalization 
means the subject has been formally admitted to a hospital for medical reasons. This may or may 
not be overnight.  It does not include presentation at a casualty or emergency room. 
• Results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity 
NOTE: The term disability means a substantial disruption of a person’s ability to conduct normal life 
functions. This definition is not intended to include experiences of relatively minor medical 
significance such as uncomplicated headache, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, influenza, or accidental 

Santarus, Inc. 
SAN-300 
Amendment 5:  28 Mar 2016

trauma (e.g., sprained ankle) that may interfere or prevent everyday life functions but do not 
constitute a substantial disruption. 
• Is a congenital anomaly/birth defect 
• Is medically significant or requires intervention to prevent one of the outcomes listed above. 
NOTE: For example, allergic bronchospasm requiring intensive treatment in an emergency room or 
at home [see Section 8.10 on Assessing Hypersensitivity], blood dyscrasias, or convulsions that do 
not result in inpatient hospitalization, or the development of drug dependency or drug abuse. 
 
9.2 
Clinical Laboratory Abnormalities and Other Abnormal Assessments as AEs and 
SAEs 
 
Abnormal laboratory findings (e.g., clinical chemistry, hematology) or other abnormal assessments 
(e.g., abnormal findings during examinations or ECG monitoring) that are judged by the investigator as 
clinically significant must be recorded as AEs or SAEs if they meet the definition of an AE or SAE. 
The investigator should exercise his or her medical and scientific judgment in deciding whether an 
abnormal laboratory finding or other abnormal assessment (including ECG monitoring) is clinically 
significant. 
 
9.3 
Method, Frequency, and Time Period for Detecting AEs and SAEs 
 
At each visit, after the patient has had an opportunity to spontaneously mention any problems, the 
investigator should inquire about AEs by asking the following standard questions: 
 
1. "Have you had any (other) medical problems since your last visit/assessment?" 
 
2. "Have you taken any new medicines, other than those given to you in this study, since your last 
visit/assessment?" 
9.3.1 Time Period for Detecting and Reporting of AEs and SAEs 
 
From the time of informed consent through study completion/withdrawal, including the follow-up period. 
9.3.2 Post-Study SAEs 
 
Investigators are not obligated to actively seek SAE information in former study participants, but 
investigators are encouraged to notify the sponsor of any SAEs, of which they become aware 
occurring at any time after a patient has completed, discontinued or terminated study participation that 
they judge may reasonably be related to study treatment or study participation. 
9.4 
Documenting AEs and SAEs 
 
All AEs that occur after the patient has signed the ICF and during the course of the study, regardless of 
causality or seriousness, will be assessed and recorded in the patient’s medical records and in the 
CRF.  In addition, SAEs must be documented on the paper SAE Report Form. 
 
A separate paper SAE Report Form should be used for each SAE. However, if at the time of initial 
reporting, multiple SAEs are present that are temporally and/or clinically related, they may be reported 
on the same SAE Report Form.

The investigator should attempt to establish a diagnosis for the event based on signs, symptoms, 
and/or other clinical information. In such cases, the diagnosis should be documented as the AE and 
SAE and not the individual signs/symptoms. 
 
For clinically significant abnormal laboratory findings or other abnormal assessments meeting the 
definition of an AE or SAE, a diagnosis, if known (or clinical signs and symptoms if diagnosis is 
unknown), should be recorded by the investigator. If a diagnosis is unknown and clinical signs and 
symptoms are not present, then the abnormal finding should be recorded. When documenting as an 
SAE on the SAE Report Form, relevant laboratory data should either be recorded in the ‘Details of 
Relevant Assessments’ section of the SAE Report Form (including the reference range and units) or 
copies of the laboratory report (with reference ranges and units) should be sent with the SAE Report 
Form. 
 
The SAE Report Form should be completed as thoroughly as possible and signed by the investigator or 
his/her designee before transmittal to Product Safety. It is very important that the investigator provide 
his/her assessment of causality to study product at the time of initial SAE reporting. 
 
9.5 
Follow-up of AEs and SAEs 
 
All AEs, regardless of seriousness, must be followed until resolution, until the condition stabilizes, until 
the event is otherwise explained, or the subject is lost to follow-up. The investigator is responsible to 
ensure that follow-up includes any supplemental investigations as may be indicated to elucidate as 
completely as practical the nature and/or causality of the AE. This may include additional laboratory 
tests or investigations, histopathological examinations, relevant hospital records (i.e. discharge 
summary), or consultation with other health care professionals. 
 
Product Safety may request that the investigator perform or arrange for the conduct of supplemental 
measurements and/or evaluations. If a patient dies during participation in the study or during a 
recognized follow-up period, Product Safety should be provided with a copy of any postmortem 
findings, including histopathology. 
 
For SAEs, new or updated information should be recorded on the originally completed paper SAE 
Report Form and all changes signed and dated by the Investigator or designee. By signing the SAE 
Report Form, the investigator or designee attests to the accuracy and completeness of the data and 
that he/she has reviewed and approved the report being submitted. The investigational sites IRB/IEC 
must be notified about SAEs in accordance with the requirements of the governing IRB/IEC. 
 
9.6 
Assessment of Causality 
 
The Investigator’s assessment of the relationship to study drug of an AE is part of the documentation 
process but is not a factor in determining whether or not it is reported. All AEs, regardless of causality, 
must be reported. The blind should not be broken for the purpose of making this assessment.  If there 
is uncertainty as to whether a clinical observation is an AE, the event should be reported. 
 
The relationship of the event to the study drug should be determined by the Investigator according to 
the following criteria: 
 
Not related 
An event for which sufficient data exist to indicate that the etiology is unrelated to the 
drug. 

Santarus, Inc. 
SAN-300 
Amendment 5:  28 Mar 2016 
CONFIDENTIAL 
Clinical Trial Protocol: C2013-0302 
 
 
 
 
Unlikely related 
An event that does not follow a reasonable temporal sequence relative to administration 
of the drug.  However, causality from the drug cannot be ruled out. 
 
Possibly related 
An event that follows a reasonable temporal sequence relative to administration of the 
drug; that follows a known or expected pattern of response to the drug; but that could 
readily have been produced by other factors. 
 
Probably related 
An event that follows a reasonable temporal sequence relative to administration of the 
drug; that follows a known or expected pattern of response to the suspected drug; and 
that could not be reasonably explained by the known characteristics of that patient’s 
clinical state. 
 
9.7 
Prompt Reporting of SAEs to Product Safety 
 
SAEs must be reported promptly to Product Safety once the investigator determines that the event 
meets the protocol definition of a SAE. 
 
Prompt reporting of a SAE requires: 
 
• 
Completion and transmission of the SAE Report Form to Product Safety via fax within 24 hours of 
the investigator’s knowledge of the event. In parallel, a corresponding AE with the SAE details 
should be entered into the AE CRF within 48 hours of submitting the paper SAE Report Form. 
• 
Prompt reporting of additional information for previously reported SAEs should follow the same 
reporting timeframe as initial reports. In addition, the corresponding AE in the AE CRF (as 
applicable) should be updated to ensure all data points documented in the AE CRF are aligned with 
the matching data points on the paper SAE Report Form. 
9.8 
Pregnancy Reporting 
 
Pregnancies detected in subjects assigned to study drug should be promptly reported to Product Safety 
within 24 hours of awareness via fax, using the Pregnancy Notification Form. If a female patient 
becomes pregnant following assignment to study treatment, the study product will be immediately 
discontinued and the patient will be followed until the outcome of the pregnancy is known. 
 
Product Safety should be notified promptly via fax of any updates on the status of the pregnancy by 
update and/or amendment of the initial pregnancy notification form. 
 
Although pregnancy occurring in a clinical study is not considered to be an AE or SAE, any pregnancy 
complication (i.e. spontaneous abortion) or elective termination of a pregnancy, for medical reasons, 
will be recorded as an AE or SAE and followed as such. 
 
9.9 
Transmission of SAE Report Forms and Pregnancy Notification Forms 
 
Completed SAE Report Forms and completed pregnancy notification forms should be transmitted to 
Product Safety via the fax number provided below:

11 PLANNED STATISTICAL METHODS 
11.1 
General Considerations 
 
All endpoints in this study will be summarized by descriptive statistics. Descriptive statistics for 
continuous variables will include the mean, standard deviation, median, first and third quartiles, 
minimum, and maximum value; categorical variables will be presented as counts and percentages. 
All statistical tests will be conducted at the two-sided α = 0.05 level of significance. All tests of binomial 
proportions will be conducted using the chi-square test unless more than one cell in a 2 x 2 table has 
an expected value of < 5, in which case the Fisher’s Exact Test will be used. All tests of continuous 
variables will be conducted using the Wilcoxon Rank-Sum Test. For all efficacy endpoints, patients will 
be analyzed according to the treatment to which they were randomized. For all safety endpoints, 
patients will be analyzed according to the treatment they received.  Parameters presented by 
“treatment group” will compare the 6 patients on SAN-300 from each cohort with the 10 pooled patients 
on placebo. 
 
11.2 
Determination of Sample Size 
 
There is no sample size calculation, as this study is not intended to be powered to demonstrate 
efficacy.  Results from this study will be used to design future efficacy studies. 
 
11.3 
Analysis Populations 
 
11.3.1 
Intent-to-Treat Population 
 
The Intent-to-Treat (ITT) Population is defined as all randomized patients who received at least one 
dose of a study drug. Patients in the ITT Population will be analyzed according to the treatment to 
which they were randomized. 
 
The ITT Population is the primary population for the analysis of all efficacy endpoints. 
 
11.3.2 
Safety Population 
 
The Safety Population is defined as all patients who received at least one dose of a study drug; this 
population will be used for the safety analysis. Patients in the Safety Population will be analyzed 
according to the treatment they received. 
 
11.3.3 
Per Protocol Population 
 
The Per Protocol (PP) Population is defined as all patients in the ITT Population with the exception of 
those who failed to meet Inclusion Criterion 4; or met Exclusion Criteria 1 and 2. 
 
11.4 
Demographics and Baseline Characteristics 
 
Demographic and baseline characteristics will be summarized by treatment group and will be presented 
for individual patients in data listings.

11.5 
Safety Analysis 
 
All AEs will be coded using MedDRA. The number and percentages of patients reporting at least one 
occurrence of each AE will be tabulated by system organ class and preferred term. The number and 
percentages of patients reporting at least one occurrence of each AE by system organ class and 
preferred term will also be tabulated by severity and by the relationship to study drug. For multiple 
occurrences of the same AE in a patient that differ in severity, the AE with the highest level of severity 
will be tabulated.  For multiple occurrences of the same AE in a patient that differ in relationship to 
study drug (e.g., related and not related), the AE will be tabulated as related. All AEs for all patients will 
be presented in a data listing. 
 
All other safety parameters will be summarized using descriptive statistics and presented by time point 
and treatment group. All other safety parameters will be presented for individual patients in data 
listings. 
 
11.6 
Pharmacokinetic Analysis 
 
Population PK methods will be employed to estimate the relevant PK parameters for the population as 
well as for each individual patient who received SAN-300 and had at least one blood sample in which 
SAN-300 was quantifiable. The details of the population PK analysis will be documented in a 
Population Pharmacokinetic/Pharmacodynamic Analysis Plan. 
 
PK parameters will be summarized using descriptive statistics and presented by time point and 
treatment group in tabular format. PK parameters for individual patients will be presented in data 
listings.  Time-dependent SAN-300 concentrations will be presented in figure format. 
 
11.7 
Pharmacodynamic Analysis 
 
PD parameters will be summarized using descriptive statistics and presented by time point and 
treatment group in tabular format. PD parameters will be summarized from baseline to each time point 
by treatment group.  PD parameters for individual patients will be presented in data listings. 
Time-dependent PD parameters will be presented in figure format. 
 
11.8 
Efficacy Analysis 
 
Efficacy will be compared for the SAN-300 dose groups (0.5, 1.0, 2.0 and 4.0 mg/kg once-weekly and 
2.0 and 4.0 mg/kg every other week) and the pooled placebo group. 
 
The DAS28-CRP and HAQ-DI will be calculated and presented by time point and treatment group. The 
mean change from baseline to the End-of-Treatment Visit for DAS28-CRP will be compared across 
treatment groups using the Wilcoxon Rank-Sum Test.  The percentages of patients achieving a 
DAS28-CRP ≤ 3.2 and < 2.6 will be compared across treatment groups using the chi-square test. 
 
All components of the ACR Core Set will be summarized using descriptive statistics and presented by 
time point and treatment group. The percentages of patients achieving ACR20, ACR50, or ACR70 
responses will be compared across treatment groups using the chi-square test. 
 
MRI data will be summarized across the treatment groups for each time point. All MRI data will be 
presented for individual patients in data listings.

12 DATA HANDLING AND QUALITY ASSURANCE 
12.1 
Case Report Forms 
 
As part of the responsibilities assumed by participating in the study, the Principal Investigator or 
Sub-investigators agree to maintain adequate case histories for the patients treated as part of the 
research under this protocol. The case histories include accurate eCRFs and source documentation. 
The primary source documents for this study will be the patients’ medical records and research records 
maintained by the Investigators. 
 
The Principal Investigator or Sub-investigator is responsible for ensuring that the clinical data required 
by the study protocol are carefully entered in the eCRFs.  They are also responsible for checking that 
the data reported in the eCRFs correspond to those in the source files. To ensure legibility, the eCRFs 
will be entered in English. Data changes are documented and saved in an audit trail in the clinical trial 
database, and there is no deletion of entered data. In the interests of completeness of data acquisition, 
the questions which are repeated in each section of the eCRF should be answered in full, even if there 
are no changes from a previous examination. A reasonable explanation must be given by the 
Investigator for all missing data. 
 
After data have been entered, reviewed, and edited and source data verification has been performed, 
completed eCRFs must be electronically signed by the Principal Investigator or Sub-investigator. 
 
12.2 
Monitoring of the Study 
 
The study will be supervised by regional clinical research associates (CRAs). The CRAs will visit the 
Principal Investigator or Sub-investigator at each study facility at periodic intervals to review and 
discuss study progress. In addition, CRAs will maintain regular telephone, email, and letter contact with 
each study facility.  The CRAs will maintain current personal knowledge of the study through 
observation, review of study records and direct access to source documentation, and discussion of the 
conduct of the study with the Principal Investigator and/or Sub-investigator and staff. 
 
All aspects of the study will be carefully monitored by the CRO and Santarus for compliance with 
applicable government regulation with respect to current Good Clinical Practice (GCP) and current 
Standard Operating Procedures. 
 
The eCRFs will be checked for completeness, plausibility, and consistency with source documents and 
any queries will be resolved by the Investigator. 
 
12.3 
Inspection of Records 
 
Principal or Sub-investigators and institutions involved in the study will permit trial-related monitoring, 
audits, IEC/IRB review, and regulatory inspection(s).  In the event of an audit, the Principal or 
Sub-investigator agrees to allow the Sponsor, representatives of the Sponsor, FDA, or other regulatory 
authorities access to all study records and source documentation. 
 
The Principal Investigator or Sub-investigator should promptly notify the Sponsor and the CRO of any 
audits scheduled by any regulatory authorities and promptly forward copies of any audit reports 
received to the Sponsor.

Essential documents should be retained until at least 2 years after the last approval of a marketing 
application in an International Conference on Harmonisation (ICH) region and until there are no 
pending or contemplated marketing applications in an ICH region or at least 2 years have elapsed since 
the formal discontinuation of clinical development of the investigational product. These documents 
should be retained for a longer period, however, if required by the applicable regulatory requirements or 
by an agreement with the Sponsor. It is the responsibility of the Sponsor to inform the Principal 
Investigator or Sub-investigator/institution as to when these documents no longer need to be retained.

The following administrative items are meant to guide the Principal Investigator and Sub-investigator in 
the conduct of the trial but may be subject to change based on industry and government Standard 
Operating Procedures or Working Practice Documents or Guidelines. 
 
13.1 
Confidentiality 
 
All laboratory specimens, evaluation forms, reports, and other records will be identified in a manner 
designed to maintain patient confidentiality. All records will be kept in a secure storage area with 
limited access. Clinical information will not be released without the written permission of the patient, 
except as necessary for monitoring and auditing by the Sponsor, its designee, Regulatory Authorities, 
or the IEC/IRB. 
 
The Principal Investigator or Sub-investigator and all employees and co-workers involved with this 
study may not disclose or use for any purpose other than performance of the study, any data, record, or 
other unpublished, confidential information disclosed to those individuals for the purpose of the study. 
Prior written agreement from the Sponsor or its designee must be obtained for the disclosure of any 
said confidential information to other parties. 
 
13.2 
Independent Ethics Committee/Institutional Review Board Approval 
 
ICH guidelines require that approval be obtained from an IEC/IRB before the participation of human 
patients in research studies.  Before the study starts, the protocol, the ICF, advertisements to be used 
for patient recruitment, and any other written information regarding this study to be provided to the 
patient (or the patient’s legal guardian) must be approved by the IEC/IRB.  Documentation of all 
IEC/IRB approvals and of the IEC/IRB compliance with ICH Guideline E6 will be maintained by the site 
and will be available for review by the Sponsor or its designee. All IEC/IRB approvals should be signed 
by the IEC/IRB Chairman or designee and must identify the IEC/IRB name and address, the clinical 
protocol by title and/or protocol number and the date approval and/or favorable opinion was granted. 
 
The Principal Investigator or Sub-investigator is responsible for obtaining notification of continued 
review of the clinical research at intervals not exceeding one year or otherwise specified by the 
IEC/IRB. The Principal Investigator or Sub-investigator must supply the Sponsor or its designee with 
written documentation of annual IEC/IRB review and approval of the clinical research. 
 
13.3 
Modification of the Protocol 
 
Any changes in this research activity, except those necessary to remove an apparent, immediate 
hazard to the patient, must be reviewed and approved by the Sponsor or its designee. Amendments to 
the protocol must be submitted in writing to the Principal Investigator’s IEC/IRB for approval before 
patients are enrolled into an amended protocol. 
 
13.4 
Informed Consent 
 
Written informed consent will be obtained from each patient before entering the study or before 
performing any unusual or non-routine procedure that involves risk to the patient. An agreed ICF, 
reviewed by the Sponsor and/or its designee, will be submitted by the Principal Investigator or 

Santarus, Inc. 
SAN-300 
Amendment 5:  28 Mar 2016 
CONFIDENTIAL 
Clinical Trial Protocol: C2013-0302 
 
 
 
 
Sub-investigator to his or her IEC/IRB for review and approval before the start of the study. If the ICF is 
revised during the study, all active participating patients must sign the revised ICF. 
 
Before recruitment and enrollment, each prospective patient will be given a full explanation of the study 
and allowed to read the IEC/IRB-approved ICF. Once the Principal Investigator or Sub-investigator is 
assured that the patient understands the implications of participating in the study, the patient will be 
asked to give consent to participate in the study by signing the ICF. The informed consent process will 
be briefly described in the source documents for each patient. 
The original and any amended signed 
and dated informed consent documents must be retained at the study site; and a copy must be given to 
the patient or the patient’s legally authorized representative(s). Note: The ICF for this study will be 
provided as a separate document. 
 
13.5 
Protocol Violations and Deviations 
 
The Principal Investigator or Sub-investigator or designee must document and explain in the patient’s 
source documentation any deviation from the approved protocol.  The Principal Investigator or 
Sub-investigator may implement a deviation from, or a change of, the protocol to eliminate an 
immediate hazard to trial patients without prior IEC/IRB approval. As soon as possible after such an 
occurrence, the implemented deviation or change, the reasons for it, and any proposed protocol 
amendment(s) should be submitted to the IEC/IRB for review and approval, to the Sponsor for 
agreement, and to the regulatory authorities, if required. 
 
A deviation from the protocol can be an unintended and/or unanticipated departure from the procedures 
and/or processes approved by the Sponsor and the IEC/IRB and agreed to by the Principal Investigator 
or Sub-investigator.  Deviations usually have an impact on individual patients or a small group of 
patients and do not involve inclusion/exclusion or primary endpoint criteria. A protocol violation occurs 
when there is non-adherence to the protocol that results in a significant, additional risk to the patient, 
when the patient or Principal Investigator or Sub-investigator has failed to adhere to significant protocol 
requirements (e.g., an inclusion/exclusion criterion) and the patient was enrolled without prior Sponsor 
approval, or when there is non-adherence to ICH-GCP guidelines. 
 
Protocol violations and deviations will be documented by the Principal Investigators or 
Sub-investigators. The IEC/IRB should be notified of protocol violations and substantial deviations that 
impact on the safety and integrity of the study in a timely manner. Other deviations from the protocol 
must also be reported to the IEC/IRB according to their requirements. 
 
13.6 
Study Reporting Requirements 
 
By participating in this study the Principal Investigator or Sub-investigator agrees to submit reports of 
SAEs and pregnancies according to the timeline and method outlined in the protocol. In addition, the 
Principal Investigator or Sub-investigator agrees to submit annual reports to his/her IEC/IRB as 
appropriate. The Principal Investigator or Sub-investigator also agrees to provide the Sponsor with an 
adequate report of the Principal Investigator’s or Sub-investigator’s participation in the study. 
 
13.7 
Financial Disclosure and Obligations 
 
Principal Investigators and Sub-investigators are required to provide financial disclosure information to 
allow the Sponsor to submit the complete and accurate certification or disclosure statements required 
under Part 54 of Title 21 of the CFR.  Note: this study may be used as part of a US submission 

Santarus, Inc. 
SAN-300 
Amendment 5:  28 Mar 2016 
CONFIDENTIAL 
Clinical Trial Protocol: C2013-0302 
 
 
 
 
package and hence the appropriate CFRs need to apply to all study sites. In addition, the Principal 
Investigator and Sub-investigators must provide to the Sponsor a commitment to promptly update this 
information if any relevant changes occur during the course of the investigation and for 1 year after the 
completion of the study 
 
Neither the Sponsor nor study CROs are financially responsible for further testing/treatment of any 
medical condition that may be detected during the screening process. In addition, in the absence of 
specific arrangements, neither the Sponsor nor the study CROs are financially responsible for further 
treatment of the patient’s disease. 
 
13.8 
Investigator Documentation 
 
Before beginning the study, the Principal Investigator will be asked to comply with ICH E6 8.2 
guidelines and Title 21 of the CFR by providing the following essential documents, including but not 
limited to: 
• An original signed Investigator’s Statement page of the protocol (Appendix 9) 
• An IEC/IRB-approved ICF, samples of site advertisements for recruitment for this study, and any 
other written information regarding this study that is to be provided to the patient 
• IEC/IRB approval 
• FDA 1572 form 
• Curriculum vitae (CV) for the Principal Investigator and each Sub-investigator. Current licensure 
must be noted on the CV. They will be signed and dated by the Principal Investigators and Sub- 
investigators at study start-up, indicating that they are accurate and current 
• Financial disclosure information to allow the Sponsor to submit complete and accurate certification 
or disclosure statements required under Part 54 of Title 21 of the CFR. In addition, the 
Investigators must provide to the Sponsor a commitment to promptly update this information if any 
relevant changes occur during the course of the investigation and for 1 year after the completion of 
the study 
 
13.9 
Study Conduct 
 
The Principal Investigator agrees that the study will be conducted according to the principles of the ICH 
E6 Guideline on GCP and the ethical principles that have their origins in the WMA Declaration of 
Helsinki. The Principal Investigator will conduct all aspects of this study in accordance with all national 
and local laws or regulations. 
 
13.10 Publications 
 
After completion of the study, the data may be considered for reporting at a scientific meeting or for 
publication in a scientific journal.  In these cases, the Sponsor will be responsible for these activities 
and will work with Investigators to determine how the manuscript is written and edited, the number and 
order of authors, the publishing journal/newsletter to which it will be submitted, and other related issues. 
Data are the property of the Sponsor and cannot be published without prior authorization from the 
Sponsor, but data and publication thereof will not be unduly withheld.

The criteria are aimed at classification of newly presenting patients. In addition, patients with erosive disease 
typical of 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.

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 which of the relevant differential 
diagnoses to consider, an expert rheumatologist should be consulted. 
3 
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. 
4 
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. 
5 
"Large joints" refers to shoulders, elbows, hips, knees, and ankles. 
6 
"Small joints" refers to the metacarpophalangeal joints, proximal interphalangeal joints, second through fifth 
metatarsophalangeal joints, thumb interphalangeal joints, and wrists.

In this category, at least one 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 (e.g., 
temporomandibular, acromioclavicular, sternoclavicular, etc.). 
8 
Negative refers to International Unit (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 RF information is only available as positive or negative, a positive result should 
be scored as low-positive for RF. 
9 
Normal/abnormal is determined by local laboratory standards. 
10 
Duration of symptoms refers to patient self-report of the duration of signs or symptoms of synovitis (e.g., pain, 
swelling, tenderness) of joints that are clinically involved at the time of assessment, regardless of treatment 
status.

Class 
Definition 
 
Class I: 
Completely able to perform usual activities of daily living (self-care, vocational, and avocational)1 
Class II: 
Able to perform usual self-care and vocational activities, but limited in avocational activities. 
Class III: 
Able to perform usual self-care activities, but limited in vocational and avocational activities. 
Class IV: 
Limited in ability to perform usual self-care, vocational and avocational activities. 
1 
Usual self-care activities include dressing, feeding, bathing, grooming, and toileting. Vocational (school, work, 
homemaking) and avocational (recreational and/or leisure) activities are patient-desired and age- and sex- 
specific.

Swollen and Tender Joint Assessment 
 
An experienced assessor will evaluate joint counts. 
 
Joints to be Assessed for Swelling and Tenderness 
 
The joints to be assessed for tenderness (68 joints) and swelling (66 joints) consist of the following: 
• Temporomandibular joint 
• Sternoclavicular joint 
• Acromioclavicular joint 
• Shoulders* 
• Elbows* 
• Wrists* 
• Interphalangeal on digit 1* 
• Distal interphalangeal joints on digits 2 – 5 
• Proximal interphalangeal joints on digits 2 – 5* 
• Metacarpophalangeal joints on digits 1 – 5* 
• Hips (tenderness only) 
• Knees* 
• Ankles 
• Metatarsals 
• Interphalangeal joints on toes 1 – 5 
• Metatarsophalangeal joints on toes 1 – 5 
Joints assessed for swelling are the same, with the exception of the hips, which are excluded. 
 
* The 28 joints used to calculate the DAS28.

Appendix 7 
HAQ-DI Total Score and Individual Dimensions 
 
The physical functional status of the patient will be assessed using the HAQ. This is a widely used 
patient self-report tool which assesses the degree of difficulty a person has had in accomplishing tasks 
in eight functional areas, over the previous week. 
 
The eight categories assessed by the HAQ are 
 
(1) dressing and grooming, 
 
(2) rising, 
 
(3) eating, 
 
(4) walking, 
 
(5) hygiene, 
 
(6) reach, 
 
(7) grip, 
 
(8) common daily activities. 
 
For each of these categories, patients report the amount of difficulty they have in performing two or 
three specific activities. There are four possible responses for the HAQ questions: without ANY difficulty 
(0), with SOME difficulty (1), with MUCH difficulty (2) and UNABLE to do (3).  The scores for each of 
the eight categories are calculated. The HAQ is then derived by adjusting the score for each of these 
categories, if necessary, based upon the patient’s use of an aid, device, or assistance for that category, 
totaling the sum of the category scores and dividing by the number of categories answered. The HAQ 
score can range between 0 and 3.

Appendix 8 
Scoring the Magnetic Resonance Imaging Scans 
 
Each MRI will be scored using the published OMERACT RA MRI Score (RAMRIS) (Østergaard, 2003) 
and cartilage loss scoring (Peterfy, 2012). 
 
Scoring of Bone Erosion: 
Erosion will be scored at the following 25 locations: the distal radius and ulna, the eight carpal bones, 
including the trapezium, trapezoid, capitate, hamate, pisiform, scaphoid, lunate, and triquetrum, as well 
as the five metacarpal bases, the five metacarpal heads, and the five proximal phalangeal bases. 
Bone erosion is scored 0-10, according to the proportion (in increments of 10%) of erosion of articular 
bone:  0: 0%, 1: 1%-10%, 2: 11%-20%, ……..10: 91%-100% 
 
Scoring of Osteitis: 
Osteitis will be scored at the same 25 bone locations as erosion: the distal radius and ulna, the eight 
carpal bones, including the trapezium, trapezoid, capitate, hamate, pisiform, scaphoid, lunate, and 
triquetrum, as well as the five metacarpal bases, the five metacarpal heads, and the five proximal 
phalangeal bases. 
Osteitis is scored 0-3 according to the proportion (in increments of 33%) of involvement of original 
articular bone:  0: 0%, 1: 1%-33%, 2: 34%-66%, 3: 67%-100% 
 
Scoring of Synovitis: 
Synovitis will be scored at the following eight joint locations: the distal radioulnar joint, the radiocarpal 
joint, the intercarpal and carpometacarpal joints together, and the five metacarpophalangeal (MCP) 
joints. 
Synovitis is scored 0-3 according to the proportion of volume enhancement: 
0: 0%, 1: 1%-33%, 2: 34%-66%, 3: 67%-100% 
 
Scoring of Cartilage Loss: 
Cartilage loss will be assessed in the MRI images of the hand with the most clinically significant 
synovitis (25 joints). Joints that will be assessed include MCP joints 1-5, proximal inter-phalangeal 
joints (1-5), as well as the following joints of the wrist: 
• Four carpometacarpal (CMC) joints 2-5 
• Scaphotrapezoid joint 
• Scaphotrapezium joint 
• Trapezoid-trapezium joint 
• Radioscaphoid joint 
• Radiolunate joint 
• Lunate-triquetrum joint 
• Hamate-triquetrum joint 
• Capitate-hamate joint 
• Capitate-lunate joint
