1. PROTOCOL SUMMARY 
1.1. Synopsis 
Short Title: RELATIVE BIOAVAILABILITY STUDY IN HEALTHY 
PARTICIPANTS OF PEDIATRIC RITLECITINIB (PF-06651600) CAPSULES AND 
SPRAY CONGEALED BEADS RELATIVE TO ADULT CAPSULES
Rationale
Ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) is a covalent and irreversible inhibitor of JAK3 with high 
selectivity over the other JAK isoforms (JAK1, JAK2, and TYK2).  Ritlecitinib 
(PF-06651600) also inhibits irreversibly the TEC family kinases with selectivity over the 
broader human kinome.  Treatment with ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) is expected to inhibit 
the inflammatory pathways mediated by IL-7, IL-15 and IL-21, all implicated in UC, CD, 
AA, RA, and vitiligo.  Moreover, due to lack of activity against the other JAK isoforms, 
ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) is expected to spare immunoregulatory cytokines such as IL-10, 
IL-27 and IL-35, which are critical to the maintenance of immunosuppressive functions and 
immune homeostasis.
A capsule formulation of the tosylate salt of ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) has been developed 
and nominated to be the marketed dosage form and is being evaluated in a pivotal BE trial 
relative to the tablets.  The tablet formulation is the current clinical product at strengths of 
10 mg and 50 mg.  A 10 mg capsule and a spray congealed bead are being evaluated as 
potential candidate formulations for pediatric patients.  Both these formulations have 
qualitative and quantitative differences in their formulation excipients from the adult 
capsules.  The primary objective of this study is to obtain an estimate of the bioavailability 
of a single oral dose of pediatric ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) capsules (3 × 10 mg capsules) 
relative to the 30 mg adult capsule in healthy adult participants under fasting conditions.  
Additionally, an alternative pediatric formulation utilizing a spray congealed beads will also 
be evaluated.

Overall Design
The study will be conducted as a Phase 1, open-label, single dose, randomized, 3 period, 
cross-over design in a single cohort of approximately 12 healthy male or female participants 
at a single center.  Participants will be randomized into 2 sequences of treatment as 
described in the following table of Intervention Groups and Duration.
Number of Participants
A total of approximately 12 participants will be randomly assigned to study intervention such 
that approximately 6 participants will be enrolled to 1 of the 2 sequences.

Treatment C: ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) 30 mg spray congealed beads
Since ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) is rapidly eliminated (t½ ~2 hours), there will be at least a 
2-day washout between each dose. 
Blood samples for PK analysis will be collected pre-dose and at 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 
12, 16 and 24 hours post-dose.
A taste assessment will be conducted using a taste assessment questionnaire for the spray 
congealed beads in Period 3, immediately after dosing, and at 5 min, 10 min, 20 min after 
dosing.  
Participants will participate in the study up to approximately 2.5 months, including the 
screening and follow-up periods.  Participants will be screened within 28 days of the first 
dose of study intervention and if all entry criteria are fulfilled, the participants will report to 
the CRU on the day prior to Period 1 Day 1 dosing (Day -1).  On Day 1 of each period, 
participants will receive a single dose of study intervention.  Capsules and spray congealed 
beads will be administered with approximately 240 mL of ambient temperature water and 
will be swallowed (not chewed). Participants will be fasted for at least 10 hours pre-dosing 
and 4 hours post-dosing.
Participants will be confined in the CRU for a total of at least 7 days (6 nights which includes 
admission to the CRU on Day -1) and discharged at the discretion of the investigator. A 
follow-up phone call will be made at least 28 calendar days and up to 35 calendar days after 
the last administration of the study interventions to capture any potential AE and confirm 
appropriate contraceptive usage.

These calculations are based on the estimates of within-subject standard deviations of 
0.106 and 0.212 for ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) loge AUCinf and loge Cmax, respectively, as 
obtained from studies B7981003 and B7981022. 
Participants may be replaced at the discretion of the sponsor.
To estimate the relative BA of ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) pediatric capsule (3 × 10 mg 
capsules) relative to adult 30 mg capsule, the natural log transformed AUCinf (if data permit), 
AUClast and Cmax will be analyzed using a mixed effects model with sequence, period and 
treatment as fixed effects and participant within sequence as a random effect.  Estimates of 
the adjusted mean differences (Test-Reference) and corresponding 90% confidence intervals 
will be obtained from the model.  The adjusted mean differences and 90% confidence 
intervals for the differences will be exponentiated to provide estimates of the ratio of adjusted 
geometric means (Test/Reference) and 90% confidence intervals for the ratios.  Treatment 
A (30 mg capsule form of ritlecitinib [PF-06651600] under fasted conditions) will be the 
Reference treatment while Treatment B (3 × 10 mg pediatric capsules of ritlecitinib 
[PF-06651600] under fasted conditions) will be the Test treatment.  Data from Period 3 
(Treatment C) will be excluded from this analysis.

2. INTRODUCTION
Ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) is a selective covalent inhibitor of JAK3 and the TEC family 
kinases and is currently under development for the treatment of AA, RA, vitiligo, UC, and 
CD.
2.1. Study Rationale 
The proposed pediatric formulation for ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) is a 10 mg capsule 
administered intact or sprinkled over food.  The primary objective of this study is to obtain 
an estimate of the bioavailability of pediatric ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) capsules relative to 
the adult capsule in healthy participants.  Also, an alternative formulation utilizing spray 
congealed beads will be evaluated. 
2.2. Background 
Ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) is a covalent and irreversible inhibitor of JAK3 with high 
selectivity over the other JAK isoforms (JAK1, JAK2, and TYK2).  Ritlecitinib 
(PF-06651600) also inhibits irreversibly the tyrosine kinase expressed in TEC family kinases 
with selectivity over the broader human kinome.  Treatment with ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) 
is expected to inhibit the inflammatory pathways mediated by IL-7, IL-15 and IL-21, all 
implicated in UC, CD, AA, RA, and vitiligo.  Moreover, due to lack of activity against the 
other JAK isoforms, ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) is expected to spare immunoregulatory 
cytokines such as IL-10, IL-27 and IL-35, which are critical to the maintenance of 
immunosuppressive functions and immune homeostasis.
2.2.1. Nonclinical Pharmacology
Details of the nonclinical pharmacology of ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) can be found in the 
current IB.
2.2.2. Nonclinical Pharmacokinetics and Metabolism
Details of the nonclinical PK and metabolism of ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) can be found in 
the current IB.
2.2.3. Nonclinical Safety
The NOAELs in the 6-month rat and second 9-month dog toxicity studies were 200 and 
10 mg/kg/day, respectively.  These exposures represent 44-fold exposure multiple in the rat 
study and a 6.5-fold exposure multiple in the dog study relative to the clinical dose of 50 mg.  
In the second 9 month dog toxicity study, the NOAEL of 10 mg/kg/day was based on adverse 
overimmunosuppression and axonal dystrophy (not axonal degeneration) in the central 
nervous system and the peripheral nervous system at ≥20 mg/kg/day, accompanied by 
functional auditory deficits (brainstem auditory evoked potentials ) at the highest dose of 
40 mg/kg/day (a 29-fold exposure multiple relative to the clinical dose of 50 mg).
Further information is available in the current version of the ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) IB.

2.2.4. Clinical Overview
2.2.4.1. Clinical Overview of Ritlecitinib
Ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) has been evaluated in healthy participants in a FIH B7981001
study, in a BA B7981003 study which compared the relative BA of solution versus tablet, 
and a PK study in Japanese participants (B7981008).  It has also been evaluated in 
participants with moderate to severe RA in B7981006, and moderate to severe AA in 
B7931005.  Study B7981022 compared the relative BA of capsule versus tablet.  Besides, 
there are ongoing studies in participants with moderate to severe AA (B7981015), moderate 
to severe active UC (B7981005), active non-segmental vitiligo (B7981019), and moderate to 
severe active CD (B7981007). 
2.2.4.2. Pharmacokinetic Overview of Ritlecitinib
The PK profile of ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) is characterized by rapid absorption, rapid 
elimination (terminal half-life [t½] of ~2 hours) and are approximately dose proportional.  
Steady state generally appears to have been reached by Day 4 for the QD regimens and 
Day 6 for the BID regimens based on similar median trough (pre-dose) ritlecitinib 
(PF-06651600) beyond Day 6.  Ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) has been evaluated at single oral 
doses ranging from 5 mg to 800 mg and multiple oral doses ranging from 50 mg to 400 mg 
QD and at 100 mg and 200 mg BID for 14 days.  The clearance mechanisms for ritlecitinib 
(PF-06651600) in humans appear to be primarily by metabolism.  Less than 10% of 
ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) is excreted unchanged in the urine.
2.2.4.3. Safety Overview of Ritlecitinib
2.2.4.3.1. Studies in Healthy Participants
The FIH study (B7981001) was a Phase 1, randomized, double-blind, third party open, 
placebo controlled, single and multiple dose escalation, parallel group study in healthy adult 
participants.  During the single dose period, participants received doses of 5, 20, 50, 100, 
200, 400, or 800 mg of ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) in a dose escalation format.  Participants 
returned for the multiple dose period to receive doses of 50, 200, or 400 mg QD or 100 or 
200 mg BID for 14 days.
B7981008 study was a Phase 1, randomized, double-blind, third–party open, 
placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK and PD after multiple oral 
doses of ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) in healthy Japanese adult participants.  Six participants 
were randomized, with 2 participants receiving placebo and 4 participants receiving 
ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) 200 mg QD, respectively. 
B7981003 was a Phase 1, open label, single-dose 3-way crossover study to evaluate the 
relative BA of a solid dose formulation of ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) under fasting conditions 
and the effect of a high fat meal on the BA of the solid dosage formulation of ritlecitinib 
(PF-06651600) in healthy participants.  A total of 14 participants were randomized to study 
treatment.

Page 19
Additional single dose 2- or 3-way crossover studies were performed to examine drug 
interactions (B7981017, B7981018, B7981023), food effect and relative bioavailability 
(B7981003) of ritlecitinib (PF-06651600).  Each study included 12 to 14 healthy 
participants.
In all the above studies, ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) was found to be well tolerated and to have 
an acceptable safety profile.
2.2.4.3.2. Phase 2a Study in Rheumatoid Arthritis
The completed Phase 2a study B7981006 was an 8-week randomized, double-blind, 
placebo-controlled, parallel-group, multi-center study in participants with moderate-to-severe 
active RA with an inadequate response to methotrexate.  A total of 70 participants were 
randomized to study treatment; 28 participants received placebo and 42 participants received 
ritlecitinib (PF-06651600).  Participants remained on stable background arthritis therapy, 
which had to include methotrexate (supplemented with folic/folinic acid per the local 
treatment guidelines).
Ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) was determined to be generally safe and well tolerated in this 
study.  There were no deaths or SAEs.  TEAEs were numerically higher in participants 
receiving ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) compared to those receiving placebo.  The TEAEs 
reported in more than 5% (1 in 20) participants with RA receiving ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) 
were influenza and lymphopenia.  The majority of the AEs were mild in severity.  There 
was 1 mild case of herpes simplex in the ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) group that was 
considered to be treatment -related with no cases in the placebo group.  There were no 
clinically relevant changes in vital signs, ECG, or audiometric assessments.  By the Week 8 
time point (as early as 2 weeks), in the ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) group, there were 
decreases in the median platelet counts (25% change from baseline), lymphocyte counts 
(21% change from baseline), neutrophil counts (24% change from baseline), and hemoglobin 
(3% change from baseline).  None of these were deemed to be clinically relevant by the 
investigator and values returned to near baseline by the 12-week follow-up visit.
2.2.4.3.3. Phase 2a Study in Alopecia Areata
Study B7931005 is a completed Phase 2a, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter 
study to evaluate the efficacy and safety profile of ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) and 
PF-06700841 (a TYK2/JAK1 inhibitor) in participants with moderate to severe AA.  The 
study consists of the initial 24-week double-blind treatment period, an up to 12-month 
single-blind extension period, and a 6-month crossover open-label extension period.  A total 
of 142 participants were randomized to study treatment; 47 participants received placebo, 
48 participants received ritlecitinib (PF-06651600), and 47 participants received 
PF-06700841.
During the initial 24-week double-blind treatment period, participants in the ritlecitinib 
(PF-06651600) group were treated with 200 mg of ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) QD during a 
4-week induction phase, followed by dosing with 50 mg QD in a maintenance phase.  At 
PPD

Page 20
Week 24, an interim analysis provided data on both efficacy and safety, and indicated clinical 
improvement for participants treated with ritlecitinib (PF-06651600).
During the initial 24-week treatment period of Study B7931005, there were no deaths and no 
participant in the ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) treatment group experienced a SAE.  The 
proportion of participants who experienced TEAEs in the placebo treatment group (74.5%) 
was comparable with the ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) treatment group (62.5%).  The TEAEs 
reported in more than 5% (1 in 20) participants with AA receiving ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) 
were headache, infections of upper respiratory tract, acne, diarrhea, nausea, and skin 
infections.  The majority of events were mild.  No serious infections, malignancies, cases 
of herpes zoster, or cases of herpes simplex were reported in the ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) 
group.  Hematological changes were observed in both active groups during the induction 
and maintenance periods, but were not associated with clinically relevant TEAEs.  During 
the induction period, when participants received ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) 200 mg QD for 
4 weeks, decreases in mean platelet and lymphocyte counts (-18% and -24% mean change 
from baseline, respectively) were observed in the ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) group.  During 
the maintenance period, when participants received 50 mg QD for 20 weeks, there was 
improvement in the platelet and lymphocyte counts in the ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) group.  
Neutrophil counts were increased at Week 4 (12% change from baseline) and Week 24 (10% 
change from baseline) in the ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) treatment group.  Two participants 
in the ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) group discontinued due to TEAEs.
In addition to the initial 24-week period, the trial included two extensions. Extension 1 was 
an SBE Period in which the participants had treatment withdrawn and were then re-treated 
for up to 24 weeks with the initially assigned IP after the participants reached a pre-specified 
retreatment criterion (ie, 30% hair loss from the regrown hair at Week 24).  The second 
extension was a CO Open Label Extension Period in which the Week 24 non-responders 
were assigned the opposite active treatment than the one received in the initial (Week 0-24) 
treatment period.  There were no SUSARs, serious infections, adverse events of QTcF 
prolongation, malignancies and/or no case of herpes zoster during the extension periods.
More detailed information about ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) can be found in in the current 
version of the ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) IB, which is the SRSD for this study.
2.3. Benefit/Risk Assessment
Ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) is not expected to provide any clinical benefit to healthy 
participants of this study.  This study is designed primarily to generate PK data for further 
JAK3 development.  In this study, ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) will be administered at single 
doses of 30 mg.
Ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) was determined to be well tolerated and to have an acceptable 
safety profile in the clinical studies.  Reductions in platelet counts and lymphocyte counts 
were observed during treatment with 200 mg QD, but were not considered clinically 
meaningful and improved after switching to 50 mg QD.  Ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) is an 
immunomodulator and, as such, can be associated with the potential risk of infections 
(including serious infections), opportunistic infections, and viral reactivation.  The risk of 
PPD

PFIZER CONFIDENTIAL
Page 21
infection will be monitored in this study and evaluated in longer term studies of ritlecitinib 
(PF-06651600).  
In animals, ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) was associated with fetal changes in bones and some 
internal organs, and lower fetal body weights.  It is not known whether ritlecitinib 
(PF-06651600) is secreted into human milk. Because of that and because of the 
investigational nature of ritlecitinib (PF-06651600), it should not be administered to pregnant 
women, breastfeeding women, or fertile WOCBP who are unwilling or unable to use 
contraception as defined in the study protocol. Men in the study are not required to use 
birth control, because ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) is not likely to transfer to a partner through 
semen at pharmacologically relevant blood levels.
More detailed information about the known and expected benefits and risks and reasonably 
expected adverse events of ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) may be found in the IB, which is 
SRSD for this study. 
Overall, single doses of ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) of 30 mg in healthy participants are 
expected to be safe and well tolerated in this study.

Treatment C: ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) 30 mg spray congealed beads
Since ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) is rapidly eliminated (t½ ~2 hours), there will be at least a 
48-hour washout between each dose. 
Blood samples for PK analysis will be collected pre-dose and at 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 
12, 16 and 24 hours post-dose.
Participants will participate in the study up to approximately 2.5 months, including the 
screening and follow-up periods.  Participants will be screened within 28 days of the first 
dose of study intervention and if all entry criteria are fulfilled, the participants will report to 
the CRU on the day prior to Period 1 Day 1 dosing (Day -1).  On Day 1 of each period, 
participants will receive a single dose of study intervention.  Capsules and spray congealed 
beads will be administered with approximately 240 mL of ambient temperature water, and 
will be swallowed (not chewed).  Participants will be fasted for at least 10 hours pre-dosing 
and 4 hours post-dosing.
For the taste assessment in Period 3, participants will be asked to not verbalize their 
responses and not discuss taste with other participants until after they have filled out the 
responses in the questionnaire.
Participants will be confined in the CRU for a total of at least 7 days (6 nights which includes 
admission to the CRU on Day -1) and discharged at the discretion of the investigator. A 
follow-up phone call will be made at least 28 calendar days and up to 35 calendar days after 
the last administration of the study interventions to capture any potential AE and confirm 
appropriate contraceptive usage.
Participants who withdraw from the study may be replaced at the discretion of the sponsor.
4.2. Scientific Rationale for Study Design
A capsule formulation of the tosylate salt of ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) has been developed 
and nominated to be the marketed dosage form and is being evaluated in a pivotal BE trial 
relative to the tablets.  The tablet formulation is the current clinical product at strengths of 
10 mg and 50 mg.  A 10 mg capsule and a spray congealed bead are being evaluated as 
potential candidate formulations for pediatric patients.  Both these formulations have 
PPD

Final Protocol Amendment 1, 11 August 2021
PFIZER CONFIDENTIAL
Page 25
qualitative and quantitative differences in their formulation excipients from the adult 
capsules.  
The intent of the study is to estimate the relative bioavailability of ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) 
10 mg capsule that is being developed as the market image/commercial pediatric drug 
product.  An alternate dosage form, spray congealed beads, will also be evaluated for 
bioavailability relative to the adult 30 mg capsules.  The spray congealed beads is being 
considered as an alternative pediatric formulation. 
In an embryo-fetal development study in rats, skeletal malformations and variations and 
lower fetal body weights were observed at relevant clinical exposures for ritlecitinib 
(PF-06651600). In rabbits, lower mean fetal body weights and higher incidences of visceral 
and skeletal malformations and skeletal variations were observed at relevant clinical 
exposures for PF-06651600. See the IB for further details. Therefore, the use of a highly
effective method of contraception is required in WOCBP (see Appendix 4).  
The potential risk of exposure to ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) in a sexual partner of a male 
participant in this study via ejaculate is low, and therefore no contraception use in male 
participants is required.  The calculated safety margin is ≥100-fold between the estimated 
partner exposure due to seminal transfer and the NOAEL for serious manifestations of 
developmental toxicity in nonclinical studies.  The safety margin of 100-fold is based on 
applying a 10-fold safety factor for interspecies extrapolation and a 10-fold safety factor for 
susceptible populations.1
Banked Biospecimens will be collected and stored for further analyses which may, for 
example, provide greater understanding of the study intervention.
4.3. Justification for Dose
The current study will use ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) at a dose of 30 mg which is the lowest 
strength available for the reference adult capsules.  The 30 mg dose of ritlecitinib 
(PF-06651600) is a clinically relevant dose.
Based on clinical data (single oral doses of ritlecitinib [PF-06651600] up to 800 mg and 
multiple oral doses up to 400 mg), both 400 mg QD and 200 mg BID have demonstrated 
their safety and tolerability in healthy participants.  The dose of 200 mg QD has 
demonstrated safety and tolerability of up to 8 weeks in RA patients (B7981006).  The AUC 
for a ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) 200 mg dose maintains the margins of 14-fold and 2.5-fold 
to NOAELs in 2-month and 9-month dog toxicology studies, respectively.
In those studies, 
no clinically significant changes in vital signs, electrocardiogram or laboratory data were 
observed.  No dose limiting AEs were reported and no participants met the protocol 
specified individual stopping rules.  Hence, ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) is predicted to be 
well tolerated at a dose of 30 mg in this relative bioavailability study.  Further information 
is available in the current version of the ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) IB.

6.1.1. Administration
Study intervention will be administered orally and according to the conditions described in 
SoA and Meals and Dietary Restrictions of this protocol.
Following an overnight fast of at least 10 hours, participants will receive study intervention 
at approximately 0800 hours (plus or minus 2 hours).  Investigator site personnel will 
administer study intervention during each period with ambient temperature water to a total 
volume of approximately 240 mL.  Participants will swallow the study intervention whole, 
and will not manipulate or chew the study intervention prior to swallowing.  Administer 
study intervention according to the IP Manual. 
In order to standardize the conditions on PK sampling days, all participants will be required 
to refrain from lying down (except when required for BP, pulse rate, and ECG 
measurements), eating, and drinking beverages other than water during the first 4 hours after 
dosing.
6.2. Preparation/Handling/Storage/Accountability
1. The investigator or designee must confirm appropriate temperature conditions have 
been maintained during transit for all study interventions received and any 
discrepancies are reported and resolved before use of the study intervention. 
2. Only participants enrolled in the study may receive study intervention and only 
authorized site staff may supply or administer study intervention.  All study 
interventions must be stored in a secure, environmentally controlled, and monitored 
(manual or automated recording) area in accordance with the labeled storage 
conditions with access limited to the investigator and authorized site staff.  At a 
minimum, daily minimum and maximum temperatures for all site storage locations 
must be documented and available upon request.  Data for nonworking days must 
indicate the minimum and maximum temperatures since previously documented for 
all site storage locations upon return to business.
3. Any excursions from the study intervention label storage conditions should be 
reported to Pfizer upon discovery along with any actions taken.  The site should 
actively pursue options for returning the study intervention to the storage conditions 
described in the labeling, as soon as possible.  Once an excursion is identified, the 
study intervention must be quarantined and not used until Pfizer provides permission 
to use the study intervention.  Specific details regarding the definition of an 
excursion and information the site should report for each excursion will be provided 
to the site in the IP manual.   
4. Any storage conditions stated in the SRSD will be superseded by the storage 
conditions stated on the label.
5. Study interventions should be stored in their original containers.
6. See the IP manual for storage conditions of the study intervention.

7. The investigator, institution, or the head of the medical institution (where applicable) 
is responsible for study intervention accountability, reconciliation, and record 
maintenance (ie, receipt, reconciliation, and final disposition records), such as the 
IPAL or sponsor-approved equivalent.  All study interventions will be accounted for 
using a study intervention accountability form/record.  
8. Further guidance and information for the final disposition of unused study 
interventions are provided in the IP manual.  All destruction must be adequately 
documented.  If destruction is authorized to take place at the investigator site, the 
investigator must ensure that the materials are destroyed in compliance with 
applicable environmental regulations, institutional policy, and any special instructions 
provided by Pfizer.
Upon identification of a product complaint, notify the sponsor within 1 business day of 
discovery, as described in the IP Manual.
6.2.1. Preparation and Dispensing
Within this protocol, preparation refers to the investigator site activities performed to make 
the study intervention ready for administration or dispensing to the participant by qualified 
staff.  Dispensing is defined as the provision of study intervention, concomitant treatments, 
and accompanying information by qualified staff member(s) to a healthcare provider or
participant in accordance with this protocol.  Local health authority regulations or 
investigator site guidelines may use alternative terms for these activities.
Ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) capsules and spray congealed beads will be prepared at the CRU 
in the individual dosing containers, by 2 operators, one of whom is an appropriately qualified 
and experienced member of the study staff (eg, physician, nurse, physician’s assistant, nurse 
practitioner, pharmacy assistant/technician, or pharmacist).  Prepared doses will be provided 
in unit dose containers and labeled in accordance with Pfizer regulations and the clinical 
site’s labeling requirements.
6.3. Measures to Minimize Bias: Randomization and Blinding
6.3.1. Allocation to Study Intervention
The investigator’s knowledge of the treatment should not influence the decision to enroll a 
particular participant or affect the order in which participants are enrolled.
The investigator will assign participant numbers to the participants as they are screened for 
the study.  Pfizer will provide a randomization schedule to the investigator and, in 
accordance with the randomization numbers, the participant will receive the study treatment 
regimen assigned to the corresponding randomization number.
6.4. Study Intervention Compliance
When participants are dosed at the site, they will receive study intervention directly from the 
investigator or designee, under medical supervision.  The date and time of each dose 
administered in the clinic will be recorded in the source documents and recorded in the CRF.

The dose of study intervention and study participant identification will be confirmed at the 
time of dosing by a member of the study site. Study site personnel will examine each 
participant’s mouth to ensure that the study intervention was ingested.
6.5. Concomitant Therapy
Participants will abstain from all concomitant treatments, except for the treatment of AEs. 
Use of prescription or nonprescription drugs and dietary and herbal supplements are 
prohibited within 7 days or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer) prior to the first dose of study 
intervention.  Limited use of nonprescription medications that are not believed to affect 
participant safety or the overall results of the study may be permitted on a case-by-case basis 
following approval by the sponsor.  Acetaminophen/paracetamol may be used at doses of 
≤3 g/day.
Use of medications that prolong the QT interval (a list of these medications can be found at 
http://www.crediblemeds.org/index.php/login/dlcheck) are prohibited within 10 days or 
5 half-lives (whichever is longer) prior to the first dose of the study intervention, or during 
the study. 
Vaccination with live virus, attenuated live virus, or any live viral components are prohibited 
within the 6 weeks prior to the first dose of study intervention. (Refer to Section 5.3.5 for 
additional details).
Hormonal contraceptives that meet the requirements of this study are allowed to be used in 
participants who are WOCBP (see Appendix 4).
All concomitant treatments taken during the study must be recorded with indication, daily 
dose, and start and stop dates of administration.  Concomitant drug and non-drug treatment 
will be collected.  All participants will be questioned about concomitant treatment at each 
clinic visit.
Treatments taken within 28 days before the first dose of study intervention will be 
documented as a prior treatment.  Treatments taken after the first dose of study intervention 
will be documented as concomitant treatments.
6.5.1. Rescue Medicine 
There is no rescue therapy to reverse the AEs observed with ritlecitinib (PF-06651600); 
standard medical supportive care must be provided to manage the AEs. 
6.6. Dose Modification 
Dose modification for ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) is not allowed. 
6.7. Intervention After the End of the Study
No intervention will be provided to study participants at the end of the study.

7. DISCONTINUATION OF STUDY INTERVENTION AND PARTICIPANT 
DISCONTINUATION/WITHDRAWAL
7.1. Discontinuation of Study Intervention
In rare instances, it may be necessary for a participant to permanently discontinue study 
intervention (definitive discontinuation).  Reasons for definitive discontinuation of study 
intervention include the following: treatment-related SAEs, serious infections, and other 
events as described in Section 10.8.2.
Note that discontinuation of study intervention does not represent withdrawal from the study.  
If study intervention is definitively discontinued, the participant will remain in the study to 
be evaluated for safety.  See the SoA for data to be collected at the time of discontinuation 
of study intervention and follow-up for any further evaluations that need to be completed.
In the event of discontinuation of study intervention, it must be documented on the 
appropriate CRF/in the medical records whether the participant is discontinuing further 
receipt of study intervention or also from study procedures, posttreatment study follow-up, 
and/or future collection of additional information. 
7.2. Participant Discontinuation/Withdrawal From the Study 
A participant may withdraw from the study at any time at his/her own request.  Reasons for 
discontinuation from the study include the following:
•
Refused further follow-up;
•
Lost to follow-up;
•
Death;
•
Study terminated by sponsor;
•
Adverse Event
At the time of discontinuing from the study, if possible, an early discontinuation visit should 
be conducted.  See the SoA for assessments to be collected at the time of study 
discontinuation and follow-up and for any further evaluations that need to be completed. 
The early discontinuation visit applies only to participants who are enrolled/randomized and 
then are prematurely withdrawn from the study.  Participants should be questioned 
regarding their reason for withdrawal.  The participant will be permanently discontinued 
both from the study intervention and from the study at that time.
If a participant withdraws from the study, he/she may request destruction of any remaining 
samples taken and not tested, and the investigator must document any such requests in the 
site study records and notify the sponsor accordingly.

Page 38
If the participant withdraws from the study and also withdraws consent (see Section 7.2.1) 
for disclosure of future information, no further evaluations should be performed and no 
additional data should be collected.  The sponsor may retain and continue to use any data 
collected before such withdrawal of consent.
When a participant withdraws from the study because of an SAE, the SAE must be recorded 
on the CRF and reported on the CT SAE Report.
Lack of completion of all or any of the withdrawal/early termination procedures will not be 
viewed as protocol deviations so long as the participant’s safety was preserved.
7.2.1. Withdrawal of Consent 
Participants who request to discontinue receipt of study intervention will remain in the study 
and must continue to be followed for protocol-specified follow-up procedures.  The only 
exception to this is when a participant specifically withdraws consent for any further contact 
with him or her or persons previously authorized by the participant to provide this 
information.  Participants should notify the investigator in writing of the decision to 
withdraw consent from future follow-up, whenever possible.  The withdrawal of consent 
should be explained in detail in the medical records by the investigator, as to whether the 
withdrawal is only from further receipt of study intervention or also from study procedures 
and/or posttreatment study follow-up, and entered on the appropriate CRF page.  In the 
event that vital status (whether the participant is alive or dead) is being measured, publicly 
available information should be used to determine vital status only as appropriately directed 
in accordance with local law.
7.3. Lost to Follow up 
A participant will be considered lost to follow-up if he or she repeatedly fails to return for 
scheduled visits and is unable to be contacted by the study site.
The following actions must be taken if a participant fails to return to the clinic for a required 
study visit:
•
The site must attempt to contact the participant and reschedule the missed visit as 
soon as possible and counsel the participant on the importance of maintaining the 
assigned visit schedule and ascertain whether or not the participant wishes to and/or 
should continue in the study;
•
Before a participant is deemed lost to follow-up, the investigator or designee must 
make every effort to regain contact with the participant (where possible, 3 telephone 
calls and, if necessary, a certified letter to the participant’s last known mailing 
address or local equivalent methods).  These contact attempts should be documented 
in the participant’s medical record;
•
Should the participant continue to be unreachable, he/she will be considered to have 
withdrawn from the study.

8. STUDY ASSESSMENTS AND PROCEDURES
The investigator (or an appropriate delegate at the investigator site) must obtain a signed and 
dated ICD before performing any study-specific procedures.  
Study procedures and their timing are summarized in the SoA.  Protocol waivers or 
exemptions are not allowed.
Safety issues should be discussed with the sponsor immediately upon occurrence or 
awareness to determine whether the participant should continue or discontinue study 
intervention.
Adherence to the study design requirements, including those specified in the SoA, is essential 
and required for study conduct.
All screening evaluations must be completed and reviewed to confirm that potential 
participants meet all eligibility criteria.  The investigator will maintain a screening log to 
record details of all participants screened and to confirm eligibility or record reasons for 
screening failure, as applicable.
Participants will be screened within 28 days prior to administration of the study intervention 
to confirm that they meet the study population criteria for the study.  If the time between 
screening and dosing exceeds 28 days as a result of unexpected delays (eg, delayed drug 
shipment), then participants do not require rescreening if the laboratory results obtained prior 
to first dose administration meet eligibility criteria.
A participant who qualified for this protocol but did not enroll from an earlier cohort/group 
may be used in a subsequent cohort/group without rescreening, provided laboratory results 
obtained prior to the first dose administration meet eligibility criteria for this study.  In 
addition, other clinical assessments or specimen collections, eg, banked biospecimens, may 
be used without repeat collection, as appropriate.
Procedures conducted as part of the participant’s routine clinical management (eg, blood 
count) and obtained before signing of the ICD may be utilized for screening or baseline
purposes provided the procedures met the protocol specified criteria and were performed 
within the time frame defined in the SoA.
Every effort should be made to ensure that protocol-required tests and procedures are 
completed as described.  However, it is anticipated that from time to time there may be 
circumstances outside the control of the investigator that may make it unfeasible to perform 
the test.  In these cases, the investigator must take all steps necessary to ensure the safety 
and well-being of the participant.  When a protocol-required test cannot be performed, the 
investigator will document the reason for the missed test and any corrective and preventive 
actions that he or she has taken to ensure that required processes are adhered to as soon as 
possible.  The study team must be informed of these incidents in a timely manner.

Page 40
For samples being collected and shipped, detailed collection, processing, storage, and 
shipment instructions and contact information will be provided to the investigator site prior 
to initiation of the study.
The total blood sampling volume for individual participants in this study is approximately 
110 mL (PK sample volume calculated as approximately 78 mL).  The actual collection 
times of blood sampling may change.  Additional blood samples may be taken for safety 
assessments at times specified by Pfizer, provided the total volume taken during the study 
does not exceed 550 mL during any period of 60 consecutive days.
To prepare for study participation, participants will be instructed on the information in the 
Lifestyle Considerations and Concomitant Therapy sections of the protocol.
8.1. Efficacy Assessments
Not Applicable.
8.2. Safety Assessments
Planned time points for all safety assessments are provided in the SoA.  Unscheduled 
clinical laboratory measurements may be obtained at any time during the study to assess any 
perceived safety issues.
For safety assessments, baseline is defined as the last predose measurement taken before 
dosing in Period 1: safety laboratory (Day -1), blood pressure, pulse rate, temperature and 
12-Lead ECG (Day 1, predose).
8.2.1. Physical Examinations
A complete (full) physical examination will be completed only at the Screening visit or upon 
admission to the clinic (Day -1) and will include, at a minimum, head, ears, eyes, nose, 
mouth, skin, heart and lung examinations, lymph nodes, and gastrointestinal, 
musculoskeletal, and neurological systems. 
A brief (limited) physical examination is required upon discharge/early 
termination/discontinuation and will include, at a minimum, assessments of general 
appearance, the respiratory and cardiovascular systems, and participant-reported symptoms. 
Brief (limited) physical examination may also be performed as appropriate at other times at 
the investigator’s discretion if there are findings during the previous examination, new/open 
AEs.
Physical examinations may be conducted by a physician, trained physician's assistant, or 
nurse practitioner as acceptable according to local regulation. 
Height and weight will also be measured and recorded as per the SoA.  For measuring 
weight, a scale with appropriate range and resolution is used and must be placed on a stable, 
flat surface.  Participants must remove shoes, bulky layers of clothing, and jackets so that 
only light clothing remains.  They must also remove the contents of their pockets and 
remain still during measurement of weight.

8.2.2. Vital Signs
Supine BP will be measured with the participant’s arm supported at the level of the heart, and 
recorded to the nearest mm Hg after approximately 5 minutes of rest.  The same arm 
(preferably the dominant arm) will be used throughout the study.  Participants should be 
instructed not to speak during measurements.  
The same properly sized and calibrated BP cuff will be used to measure BP each time.  The 
use of an automated device for measuring BP and pulse rate is acceptable; however, when 
done manually, pulse rate will be measured in the brachial/radial artery for at least 
30 seconds.  When the timing of these measurements coincides with a blood collection, BP 
and pulse rate should be obtained prior to the nominal time of the blood collection. 
Additional collection times, or changes to collection times, of BP and pulse rate will be 
permitted, as necessary, to ensure appropriate collection of safety data.
8.2.2.1. Temperature 
Temperature will be measured orally.  No eating, drinking, or smoking is allowed for 
15 minutes prior to the measurement.
8.2.3. Electrocardiograms
Standard 12-lead ECGs utilizing limb leads (with a 10 second rhythm strip) should be 
collected at times specified in the SoA section of this protocol using an ECG machine that 
automatically calculates the heart rate and measures PR, QT, and QTc intervals and QRS 
complex.  Alternative lead placement methodology using torso leads (eg, Mason-Likar) is 
not recommended given the potential risk of discrepancies with ECGs acquired using 
standard limb lead placement.  All scheduled ECGs should be performed after the 
participant has rested quietly for at least 10 minutes in a supine position. 
To ensure safety of the participants, a qualified individual at the investigator site will make 
comparisons to baseline (Period 1, Day 1 predose) measurements.  Additional ECG 
monitoring will occur if a) a postdose QTc interval is increased by ≥60 msec from the 
baseline and is >450 msec; or b) an absolute QTc value is ≥500 msec for any scheduled 
ECG.  If either of these conditions occurs, then 2 additional ECGs will be collected 
approximately 2 to 4 minutes apart to confirm the original measurement.  If the QTc values 
from these repeated ECGs remain above the threshold value, then a single ECG must be 
repeated at least hourly until QTc values from 2 successive ECGs fall below the threshold 
value that triggered the repeat measurement.
If a) a postdose QTc interval remains ≥60 msec from the baseline and is >450 msec; or b) an 
absolute QTc value is ≥500 msec for any scheduled ECG for greater than 4 hours (or sooner, 
at the discretion of the investigator); or c) QTc intervals get progressively longer, the 
participant should undergo continuous ECG monitoring.  A cardiologist should be consulted 
if QTc intervals do not return to less than the criterion listed above after 8 hours of 
monitoring (or sooner, at the discretion of the investigator).

Page 42
In some cases, it may be appropriate to repeat abnormal ECGs to rule out improper lead 
placement as contributing to the ECG abnormality.  It is important that leads be placed in 
the same positions each time in order to achieve precise ECG recordings.  If a machine-read 
QTc value is prolonged, as defined above, repeat measurements may not be necessary if a 
qualified medical provider’s interpretation determines that the QTc values are in the 
acceptable range.
ECG values of potential clinical concern are listed in Appendix 7.
8.2.4. Clinical Safety Laboratory Assessments
See Appendix 2 for the list of clinical safety laboratory tests to be performed and the SoA for 
the timing and frequency.  All protocol-required laboratory assessments, as defined in 
Appendix 2, must be conducted in accordance with the laboratory manual and the SoA. 
Unscheduled clinical laboratory measurements may be obtained at any time during the study 
to assess any perceived safety issues.  
The investigator must review the laboratory report, document this review, and record any 
clinically relevant changes occurring during the study in the AE section of the CRF.  
Clinically significant abnormal laboratory findings are those which are not associated with 
the underlying disease, unless judged by the investigator to be more severe than expected for 
the participant's condition.
All laboratory tests with values considered clinically significantly abnormal during 
participation in the study or within 28 calendar day after the last dose of study intervention 
should be repeated until the values return to normal or baseline or are no longer considered 
clinically significant by the investigator or medical monitor.
If such values do not return to normal/baseline within a period of time judged reasonable by 
the investigator, the etiology should be identified and the sponsor notified.
If laboratory values from non-protocol specified laboratory assessments performed at the 
institution’s local laboratory require a change in participant management or are considered 
clinically significant by the investigator (eg, SAE or AE or dose modification), then the 
results must be recorded in the CRF.
See Appendix 6 for suggested actions and follow-up assessments in the event of potential 
drug-induced liver injury. 
Participants may undergo random urine drug testing at the discretion of the investigator.  
Drug testing conducted prior to dosing must be negative for participants to receive study 
intervention.

8.2.5. Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate
eGFR will be calculated using the following equation developed by the CKD-EPI, which 
utilizes SCr: 
CKD-EPI 
•
If female and SCr is ≤0.7 mg/dL:
GFR (mL/min/1.73 m2) = 144 × (SCr/0.7) – 0.329 × 0.993age (× 1.159, if black).
•
If female and SCr is >0.7 mg/dL:
GFR (mL/min/1.73 m2) = 144 × (SCr/0.7) – 1.209 × 0.993age (× 1.159, if black).
•
If male and SCr is ≤0.9 mg/dL:
GFR (mL/min/1.73 m2) = 141 × (SCr /0.9) – 0.411 × 0.993age (× 1.159, if black).
•
If male and SCr is >0.9 mg/dL:
GFR (mL/min/1.73 m2) = 141 × (SCr /0.9) – 1.209 × 0.993age (× 1.159, if black). 
8.2.6. Pregnancy Testing 
Pregnancy tests may be urine or serum tests, but must have a sensitivity of at least 
25 mIU/mL.  Pregnancy tests will be performed in WOCBP at the times listed in the SoA.  
Following a negative pregnancy test result at screening, appropriate contraception must be 
commenced and a second negative pregnancy test result will be required at the baseline visit 
prior the participant’s receiving the study intervention.  Pregnancy tests will also be done 
whenever 1 menstrual cycle is missed during the active treatment period (or when potential 
pregnancy is otherwise suspected) and at the end of the study.  Pregnancy tests may also be 
repeated if requested by IRBs/ ECs or if required by local regulations.  
8.3. Adverse Events and Serious Adverse Events
The definitions of an AE and an SAE can be found in Appendix 3.
AEs will be reported by the participant (or, when appropriate, by a caregiver, surrogate, or 
the participant's legally authorized representative).
The investigator and any qualified designees are responsible for detecting, documenting, and 
recording events that meet the definition of an AE or SAE and remain responsible to pursue 
and obtain adequate information both to determine the outcome and to assess whether the 
event meets the criteria for classification as an SAE or caused the participant to discontinue 
the study intervention (see Section 7.1). 
Each participant will be questioned about the occurrence of AEs in a nonleading manner.
PPD

PFIZER CONFIDENTIAL
Page 44
In addition, the investigator may be requested by Pfizer Safety to obtain specific follow-up 
information in an expedited fashion.
8.3.1. Time Period and Frequency for Collecting AE and SAE Information
The time period for actively eliciting and collecting AEs and SAEs (“active collection 
period”) for each participant begins from the time the participant provides informed consent, 
which is obtained before the participant’s participation in the study (ie, before undergoing 
any study-related procedure and/or receiving study intervention), through and including a 
minimum of 28 calendar days after the last administration of the study intervention.
Follow-up by the investigator continues throughout and after the active collection period and 
until the AE or SAE or its sequelae resolve or stabilize at a level acceptable to the 
investigator and Pfizer concurs with that assessment.
For participants who are screen failures, the active collection period ends when screen failure 
status is determined.
If the participant withdraws from the study and also withdraws consent for the collection of 
future information, the active collection period ends when consent is withdrawn.
If a participant definitively discontinues or temporarily discontinues study intervention 
because of an AE or SAE, the AE or SAE must be recorded on the CRF and the SAE 
reported using the CT SAE Report Form.
Investigators are not obligated to actively seek AE or SAE after the participant has concluded 
study participation.  However, if the investigator learns of any SAE, including a death, at 
any time after a participant has completed the study, and he/she considers the event to be 
reasonably related to the study intervention, the investigator must promptly report the SAE to 
Pfizer using the CT SAE Report Form.
8.3.1.1. Reporting SAEs to Pfizer Safety
All SAEs occurring in a participant during the active collection period as described in 
Section 8.3.1 are reported to Pfizer Safety on the CT SAE Report Form immediately upon 
awareness and under no circumstance should this exceed 24 hours, as indicated in 
Appendix 3.  The investigator will submit any updated SAE data to the sponsor within 
24 hours of it being available.
8.3.1.2. Recording Nonserious AEs and SAEs on the CRF
All nonserious AEs and SAEs occurring in a participant during the active collection period, 
which begins after obtaining informed consent as described in Section 8.3.1, will be recorded 
on the AE section of the CRF.
The investigator is to record on the CRF all directly observed and all spontaneously reported 
AEs and SAEs reported by the participant.

Page 45
8.3.2. Method of Detecting AEs and SAEs
The method of recording, evaluating, and assessing causality of AEs and SAEs and the 
procedures for completing and transmitting SAE reports are provided in Appendix 3.
Care will be taken not to introduce bias when detecting AEs and/or SAEs.  Open-ended and 
nonleading verbal questioning of the participant is the preferred method to inquire about 
AE occurrences.
8.3.3. Follow-up of AEs and SAEs
After the initial AE/SAE report, the investigator is required to proactively follow each 
participant at subsequent visits/contacts.  For each event, the investigator must pursue and 
obtain adequate information until resolution, stabilization, the event is otherwise explained, 
or the participant is lost to follow-up (as defined in Section 7.3).
In general, follow-up information will include a description of the event in sufficient detail to 
allow for a complete medical assessment of the case and independent determination of 
possible causality.  Any information relevant to the event, such as concomitant medications 
and illnesses, must be provided.  In the case of a participant death, a summary of available 
autopsy findings must be submitted as soon as possible to Pfizer Safety. 
Further information on follow-up procedures is given in Appendix 3.
8.3.4. Regulatory Reporting Requirements for SAEs
Prompt notification by the investigator to the sponsor of an SAE is essential so that legal 
obligations and ethical responsibilities towards the safety of participants and the safety of a 
study intervention under clinical investigation are met.
The sponsor has a legal responsibility to notify both the local regulatory authority and other 
regulatory agencies about the safety of a study intervention under clinical investigation.  
The sponsor will comply with country-specific regulatory requirements relating to safety 
reporting to the regulatory authority, IRBs/ECs, and investigators.
Investigator safety reports must be prepared for SUSARs according to local regulatory 
requirements and sponsor policy and forwarded to investigators as necessary.
An investigator who receives SUSARs or other specific safety information (eg, summary or 
listing of SAEs) from the sponsor will review and then file it along with the SRSD(s) for the 
study and will notify the IRB/EC, if appropriate according to local requirements.
8.3.5. Exposure During Pregnancy or Breastfeeding, and Occupational Exposure
Exposure to the study intervention under study during pregnancy or breastfeeding and 
occupational exposure are reportable to Pfizer Safety within 24 hours of investigator 
awareness.

8.3.5.1. Exposure During Pregnancy
An EDP occurs if:  
•
A female participant is found to be pregnant while receiving or after discontinuing 
study intervention.
•
A female is found to be pregnant while being exposed or having been exposed to 
study intervention due to environmental exposure.  Below is an example of 
environmental exposure during pregnancy:  
•
A female family member or healthcare provider reports that she is pregnant after 
having been exposed to the study intervention by ingestion or skin contact.
The investigator must report EDP to Pfizer Safety within 24 hours of the investigator’s 
awareness, irrespective of whether an SAE has occurred. The initial information submitted 
should include the anticipated date of delivery (see below for information related to 
termination of pregnancy).
•
If EDP occurs in a participant, the investigator must report this information to Pfizer 
Safety on the CT SAE Report Form and an EDP Supplemental Form, regardless of 
whether an SAE has occurred. Details of the pregnancy will be collected after the 
start of study intervention and until 28 days after the last dose. 
•
If EDP occurs in the setting of environmental exposure, the investigator must report 
information to Pfizer Safety using the CT SAE Report Form and EDP Supplemental 
Form. Since the exposure information does not pertain to the participant enrolled in 
the study, the information is not recorded on a CRF; however, a copy of the 
completed CT SAE Report Form is maintained in the investigator site file.
Follow-up is conducted to obtain general information on the pregnancy and its outcome for 
all EDP reports with an unknown outcome.  The investigator will follow the pregnancy until 
completion (or until pregnancy termination) and notify Pfizer Safety of the outcome as a 
follow-up to the initial EDP Supplemental Form.  In the case of a live birth, the structural 
integrity of the neonate can be assessed at the time of birth.  In the event of a termination, 
the reason(s) for termination should be specified and, if clinically possible, the structural 
integrity of the terminated fetus should be assessed by gross visual inspection (unless 
preprocedure test findings are conclusive for a congenital anomaly and the findings are 
reported).
PPD

Abnormal pregnancy outcomes are considered SAEs.  If the outcome of the pregnancy 
meets the criteria for an SAE (ie, ectopic pregnancy, spontaneous abortion, intrauterine fetal 
demise, neonatal death, or congenital anomaly in a liveborn baby, a terminated fetus, an 
intrauterine fetal demise, or a neonatal death), the investigator should follow the procedures 
for reporting SAEs.  Additional information about pregnancy outcomes that are reported to 
Pfizer Safety as SAEs follows: 
•
Spontaneous abortion including miscarriage and missed abortion;
•
Neonatal deaths that occur within 1 month of birth should be reported, without regard 
to causality, as SAEs.  In addition, infant deaths after 1 month should be reported as 
SAEs when the investigator assesses the infant death as related or possibly related to 
exposure to the study intervention. 
Additional information regarding the EDP may be requested by the sponsor.  Further 
follow-up of birth outcomes will be handled on a case-by-case basis (eg, follow-up on 
preterm infants to identify developmental delays).  In the case of paternal exposure, the 
investigator will provide the participant with the Pregnant Partner Release of Information 
Form to deliver to his partner.  The investigator must document in the source documents 
that the participant was given the Pregnant Partner Release of Information Form to provide to 
his partner.
8.3.5.2. Exposure During Breastfeeding
An exposure during breastfeeding occurs if: 
•
A female participant is found to be breastfeeding while receiving or after 
discontinuing study intervention.
•
A female is found to be breastfeeding while being exposed or having been exposed to 
study intervention (ie, environmental exposure).  An example of environmental 
exposure during breastfeeding is a female family member or healthcare provider who 
reports that she is breastfeeding after having been exposed to the study intervention 
by inhalation or skin contact.  
The investigator must report exposure during breastfeeding to Pfizer Safety within 24 hours 
of the investigator’s awareness, irrespective of whether an SAE has occurred.  The 
information must be reported using the CT SAE Report Form.  When exposure during 
breastfeeding occurs in the setting of environmental exposure, the exposure information does 
not pertain to the participant enrolled in the study, so the information is not recorded on a 
CRF.  However, a copy of the completed CT SAE Report Form is maintained in the 
investigator site file.
An exposure during breastfeeding report is not created when a Pfizer drug specifically 
approved for use in breastfeeding women (eg, vitamins) is administered in accord with 
authorized use.  However, if the infant experiences an SAE associated with such a drug, the 
SAE is reported together with the exposure during breastfeeding.

8.3.5.3. Occupational Exposure
An occupational exposure occurs when a person receives unplanned direct contact with the 
study intervention, which may or may not lead to the occurrence of an AE.  Such persons 
may include healthcare providers, family members, and other roles that are involved in the 
trial participant’s care.
The investigator must report occupational exposure to Pfizer Safety within 24 hours of the 
investigator’s awareness regardless of whether there is an associated SAE.  The information 
must be reported using the CT SAE Report Form.  Since the information does not pertain to 
a participant enrolled in the study, the information is not recorded on a CRF; however, a copy 
of the completed CT SAE Report Form is maintained in the investigator site file.

Medication errors include:
•
Medication errors involving participant exposure to the study intervention;
•
Potential medication errors or uses outside of what is foreseen in the protocol that do 
or do not involve the study participant.
Such medication errors occurring to a study participant are to be captured on the medication 
error page of the CRF, which is a specific version of the AE page.
In the event of a medication dosing error, the sponsor should be notified within 24 hours.
Whether or not the medication error is accompanied by an AE, as determined by the 
investigator, the medication error is recorded on the medication error page of the CRF and, if 
applicable, any associated AE(s), serious and nonserious, are recorded on the AE page of the 
CRF.
Medication errors should be reported to Pfizer Safety within 24 hours on a CT SAE Report 
Form only when associated with an SAE.
8.4. Treatment of Overdose
For this study, any dose of ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) greater than 800 mg within a 24-hour 
time period will be considered an overdose.
Pfizer does not recommend specific treatment for an overdose.
In the event of an overdose, the investigator should:
1. Contact the medical monitor within 24 hours.
2. Closely monitor the participant for any AEs/SAEs and laboratory abnormalities 
for at least 5 half-lives or 28 calendar days after the overdose of ritlecitinib 
(PF-06651600) (whichever is longer).
3. Document the quantity of the excess dose as well as the duration of the overdose 
in the CRF.
4. Overdose is reportable to Safety only when associated with an SAE.
5. Obtain a blood sample for PK analysis within 4 days from the date of the last dose 
of study intervention if requested by the medical monitor (determined on a case by 
case basis).  
Decisions regarding dose interruptions or modifications will be made by the investigator in 
consultation with the medical monitor based on the clinical evaluation of the participant.

8.5. Pharmacokinetics 
Blood samples of approximately 2 mL, to provide approximately 0.5 mL plasma, will be 
collected for measurement of plasma concentrations of ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) as 
specified in the SoA.  Instructions for the collection and handling of biological samples will 
be provided in the laboratory manual or by the sponsor.  The actual date and time (24-hour 
clock time) of each sample will be recorded.
The actual times may change, but the number of samples will remain the same.  All efforts 
will be made to obtain the samples at the exact nominal time relative to dosing.  Collection 
of samples up to and including 10 hours after dose administration that are obtained within 
10% of the nominal time (eg, within 6 minutes of a 60-minute sample) relative to dosing will 
not be captured as a protocol deviation, as long as the exact time of the collection is noted on 
the source document and data collection tool (eg, CRF/DCT).  Collection of samples more 
than 10 hours after dose administration that are obtained ≤1 hour away from the nominal 
time relative to dosing will not be captured as a protocol deviation, as long as the exact time 
of the collection is noted on the source document and data collection tool (eg, CRF/DCT). 
Samples will be used to evaluate the PK of ritlecitinib (PF-06651600).  Samples collected 
for analyses of ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) concentration may also be used to evaluate safety 
or efficacy aspects related to concerns arising during or after the study, for metabolite 
identification and/or evaluation of the bioanalytical method, or for other internal exploratory 
purposes.
Genetic analyses will not be performed on these plasma samples.  Participant confidentiality 
will be maintained.
Samples collected for measurement of plasma concentrations of ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) 
will be analyzed using a validated analytical method in compliance with applicable SOPs.
The PK samples must be processed and shipped as indicated in the instructions provided to 
the investigator site to maintain sample integrity. Any deviations from the PK sample 
handling procedure (eg, sample collection and processing steps, interim storage or shipping 
conditions), including any actions taken, must be documented and reported to the sponsor.  
On a case-by-case basis, the sponsor may make a determination as to whether sample 
integrity has been compromised.
Any changes in the timing or addition of time points for any planned study assessments must 
be documented and approved by the relevant study team member and then archived in the 
sponsor and site study files, but will not constitute a protocol amendment.  The IRB will be 
informed of any safety issues that require alteration of the safety monitoring scheme or 
amendment of the ICD.

9.4. Statistical Analyses
The SAP will be developed and finalized before database lock and will describe the 
participant populations to be included in the analyses, and procedures for accounting for 
missing, unused, and spurious data.  This section is a summary of the planned statistical 
analyses of the primary and secondary endpoints.
9.4.1. Efficacy Analyses
An efficacy analysis is not applicable to this study. 
9.4.2. Safety Analyses
AEs and safety laboratory data will be reviewed and summarized on an ongoing basis during 
the study to evaluate the safety of participants.  Safety data will be presented in tabular 
and/or graphical format and summarized descriptively, where appropriate.
Medical history and physical examination information, as applicable, collected during the 
course of the study will be considered source data and will not be required to be reported, 
unless otherwise noted.  However, any untoward findings identified on physical 
examinations conducted during the active collection period will be captured as AEs, if those 
findings meet the definition of an AE.  Data collected at screening that are used for 
inclusion/exclusion criteria, such as laboratory data, ECGs, and vital signs, will be 
considered source data, and will not be required to be reported, unless otherwise noted.  
Demographic data collected at screening will be reported.
For safety assessments, baseline is defined as the last predose measurement taken before 
dosing in Period 1: safety laboratory (Day -1), blood pressure, pulse rate, temperature and 
12-Lead ECG (Day 1, predose).
9.4.3. Pharmacokinetic Analyses
PK parameters following a single dose administration will be derived from the concentration
time profiles using non-compartmental methods as data permit. The various PK parameters 
to be assessed in this study, their definition, and method of determination are outlined in

and summarized descriptively by nominal PK sampling time and treatment.
Individual
participant and median profiles of the plasma concentration-time data will be plotted by
treatment using actual and nominal times, respectively.
Median profiles will be presented 
on both linear-linear and log-linear scales.
To estimate the relative BA of ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) pediatric capsule (3 × 10 mg 
capsules) relative to adult 30 mg capsule, the natural log transformed AUCinf (if data permit), 
AUClast and Cmax will be analyzed using a mixed effects model with sequence, period and 
treatment as fixed effects and participant within sequence as a random effect.
Estimates of 
the adjusted mean differences (Test-Reference) and corresponding 90% confidence intervals 
will be obtained from the model.  The adjusted mean differences and 90% confidence 
intervals for the differences will be exponentiated to provide estimates of the ratio of adjusted 
geometric means (Test/Reference) and 90% confidence intervals for the ratios.  Treatment 
A (30 mg capsule form of ritlecitinib [PF-06651600] under fasted conditions) will be the 
Reference treatment while Treatment B (3 × 10 mg pediatric capsules of ritlecitinib 
[PF-06651600] under fasted conditions) will be the Test treatment.  Data from Period 3 
(Treatment C) will be excluded from this analysis.
To estimate the relative BA of ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) administered as 30 mg spray 
congealed beads (Test) relative to adult 30 mg capsule (Reference) under fasted conditions, 
the natural log transformed AUCinf (if data permit), AUClast and Cmax will be analyzed using a 
mixed effects model with sequence and treatment as fixed effects and participant within 
sequence as a random effect.  Estimates of the adjusted mean differences (Test-Reference) 
and corresponding 90% confidence intervals will be obtained from the model.  The adjusted 
mean differences and 90% confidence intervals for the differences will be exponentiated to 
provide estimates of the ratio of adjusted geometric means (Test/Reference) and 90% 
confidence intervals for the ratios.  Treatment A (30 mg capsule of ritlecitinib

the Test treatment.
9.4.4. Taste Assessment Analyses
The data used in the analysis will be transcribed and rescaled to a score from 0 to 100 from 
the raw measurements on the taste questionnaire.  The sensory attributes (overall liking, 
mouth feel, bitterness, sourness, saltiness, tongue/mouth burn) from the taste assessment
questionnaire (Appendix 9) for Treatment C (30 mg spray congealed beads) will be listed and 
descriptively summarized by collection time. Radar plots for each time point, summarizing 
all attributes, will be generated.
9.4.5. Other Analyses
Pharmacogenomic sample will be collected and retained for future analyses, but will not be 
analyzed, specifically, for this study. 
9.5. Interim Analyses
No formal interim analysis will be conducted for this study. As this is an open-label
study, the sponsor may conduct unblinded reviews of the data during the course of the study 
for the purpose of safety assessment.

The first act of recruitment is the date of the first participant’s first visit and will be the study 
start date.
The sponsor designee reserves the right to close the study site or terminate the study at any 
time for any reason at the sole discretion of the sponsor.  Study sites will be closed upon 
study completion.  A study site is considered closed when all required documents and study 
supplies have been collected and a study-site closure visit has been performed.
The investigator may initiate study-site closure at any time upon notification to the CRO if 
requested to do so by the responsible IRB/EC or if such termination is required to protect the 
health of study participants.
Reasons for the early closure of a study site by the sponsor may include but are not limited 
to:
•
Failure of the investigator to comply with the protocol, the requirements of the 
IRB/EC or local health authorities, the sponsor's procedures, or GCP guidelines;
•
Inadequate recruitment of participants by the investigator;
•
Discontinuation of further study intervention development.
If the study is prematurely terminated or suspended, the sponsor shall promptly inform the 
investigators, the ECs/IRBs, the regulatory authorities, and any CRO(s) used in the study of

the reason for termination or suspension, as specified by the applicable regulatory 
requirements.  The investigator shall promptly inform the participant and should assure 
appropriate participant therapy and/or follow-up.
Study termination is also provided for in the clinical study agreement.  If there is any 
conflict between the contract and this protocol, the contract will control as to termination 
rights.
10.1.9. Publication Policy
The results of this study may be published or presented at scientific meetings by the 
investigator after publication of the overall study results or 1 year after the end of the study 
(or study termination), whichever comes first. 
The investigator agrees to refer to the primary publication in any subsequent publications 
such as secondary manuscripts, and submit all manuscripts or abstracts to the sponsor 
30 days before submission.  This allows the sponsor to protect proprietary information and 
to provide comments and the investigator will, on request, remove any previously 
undisclosed confidential information before disclosure, except for any study- or 
Pfizer-intervention related information necessary for the appropriate scientific presentation or 
understanding of the study results.
For all publications relating to the study, the investigator will comply with recognized ethical 
standards concerning publications and authorship, including those established by the 
International Committee of Medical Journal Editors.
The sponsor will comply with the requirements for publication of the overall study results 
covering all investigator sites.  In accordance with standard editorial and ethical practice, 
the sponsor will support publication of multicenter studies only in their entirety and not as 
individual site data.  In this case, a coordinating investigator will be designated by mutual 
agreement.
Authorship of publications for the overall study results will be determined by mutual 
agreement and in line with International Committee of Medical Journal Editors authorship 
requirements. 
If publication is addressed in the clinical study agreement, the publication policy set out in 
this section will not apply.
10.1.10. Sponsor’s Qualified Medical Personnel
The contact information for the sponsor's appropriately qualified medical personnel for the 
study is documented in the study contact list located in the CTMS. 
To facilitate access to appropriately qualified medical personnel on study-related medical 
questions or problems, participants are provided with a contact card at the time of informed 
consent.  The contact card contains, at a minimum, protocol and study intervention 
identifiers, participant numbers, contact information for the investigator site, and contact

details for a contact center in the event that the investigator site staff cannot be reached to 
provide advice on a medical question or problem originating from another healthcare 
professional not involved in the participant’s participation in the study.  The contact number 
can also be used by investigator staff if they are seeking advice on medical questions or 
problems; however, it should be used only in the event that the established communication 
pathways between the investigator site and the study team are not available.  It is therefore 
intended to augment, but not replace, the established communication pathways between the 
investigator site and the study team for advice on medical questions or problems that may 
arise during the study.  For sites other than a Pfizer CRU, the contact number is not 
intended for use by the participant directly, and if a participant calls that number, he or she 
will be directed back to the investigator site.

10.2. Appendix 2: Clinical Laboratory Tests
The following safety laboratory tests (Table 4) will be performed at times defined in the SoA
section of this protocol.  Additional laboratory results may be reported on these samples as a 
result of the method of analysis or the type of analyzer used by the clinical laboratory, or as 
derived from calculated values.  These additional tests would not require additional 
collection of blood.  Unscheduled clinical laboratory measurements may be obtained at any 
time during the study to assess any perceived safety concerns.

10.3. Appendix 3: Adverse Events: Definitions and Procedures for Recording, 
Evaluating, Follow-up, and Reporting
10.3.1. Definition of AE
AE Definition
•
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical study 
participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not
considered related to the study intervention.
•
NOTE: An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an 
abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) 
temporally associated with the use of study intervention.
Events Meeting the AE Definition
•
Any abnormal laboratory test results (hematology, clinical chemistry, or urinalysis) 
or other safety assessments (eg, ECG, radiological scans, vital sign measurements), 
including those that worsen from baseline, considered clinically significant in the 
medical and scientific judgment of the investigator.  Any abnormal laboratory test 
results that meet any of the conditions below must be recorded as an AE:
•
Is associated with accompanying symptoms;
•
Requires additional diagnostic testing or medical/surgical intervention;
•
Leads to a change in study dosing (outside of any protocol-specified dose 
adjustments) or discontinuation from the study, significant additional 
concomitant drug treatment, or other therapy.
•
Exacerbation of a chronic or intermittent preexisting condition including either an 
increase in frequency and/or intensity of the condition.
•
New conditions detected or diagnosed after study intervention administration even 
though it may have been present before the start of the study.
•
Signs, symptoms, or the clinical sequelae of a suspected drug-drug interaction.
•
Signs, symptoms, or the clinical sequelae of a suspected overdose of either study 
intervention or a concomitant medication.  Overdose per se will not be reported as 
an AE/SAE unless it is an intentional overdose taken with possible 
suicidal/self-harming intent.  Such overdoses should be reported regardless of 
sequelae.
PPD


Ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) 
Protocol B7981030
Final Protocol Amendment 1, 11 August 2021
PFIZER CONFIDENTIAL
Page 66
Events NOT Meeting the AE Definition
•
Any clinically significant abnormal laboratory findings or other abnormal safety 
assessments which are associated with the underlying disease, unless judged by the 
investigator to be more severe than expected for the participant’s condition.
•
The disease/disorder being studied or expected progression, signs, or symptoms of 
the disease/disorder being studied, unless more severe than expected for the 
participant’s condition.
•
Medical or surgical procedure (eg, endoscopy, appendectomy): the condition that 
leads to the procedure is the AE.
•
Situations in which an untoward medical occurrence did not occur (social and/or 
convenience admission to a hospital).
•
Anticipated day-to-day fluctuations of preexisting disease(s) or condition(s) present 
or detected at the start of the study that do not worsen.
10.3.2. Definition of SAE
If an event is not an AE per definition above, then it cannot be an SAE even if serious 
conditions are met (eg, hospitalization for signs/symptoms of the disease under study, death 
due to progression of disease).
An SAE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence that, at any dose:
a. Results in death
b. Is life-threatening
The term “life-threatening” in the definition of “serious” refers to an event in which the 
participant was at risk of death at the time of the event.  It does not refer to an event that 
hypothetically might have caused death if it were more severe.
c.
Requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization
In general, hospitalization signifies that the participant has been detained (usually 
involving at least an overnight stay) at the hospital or emergency ward for observation 
and/or treatment that would not have been appropriate in the physician’s office or 
outpatient setting.  Complications that occur during hospitalization are AEs.  If a 
complication prolongs hospitalization or fulfills any other serious criteria, the event is 
serious.  When in doubt as to whether “hospitalization” occurred or was necessary, the 
AE should be considered serious.
Hospitalization for elective treatment of a preexisting condition that did not worsen from 
baseline is not considered an AE.
PPD

Protocol B7981030
Final Protocol Amendment 1, 11 August 2021
PFIZER CONFIDENTIAL
Page 67
d. Results in persistent disability/incapacity
•
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, and accidental trauma (eg, sprained ankle) which may interfere with or 
prevent everyday life functions but do not constitute a substantial disruption.
e.
Is a congenital anomaly/birth defect
f.
Other situations:
•
Medical or scientific judgment should be exercised in deciding whether SAE 
reporting is appropriate in other situations such as important medical events that 
may not be immediately life-threatening or result in death or hospitalization but 
may jeopardize the participant or may require medical or surgical intervention to 
prevent one of the other outcomes listed in the above definition.  These events 
should usually be considered serious.
•
Examples of such events include invasive or malignant cancers, intensive treatment 
in an emergency room or at home for allergic bronchospasm, blood dyscrasias or 
convulsions that do not result in hospitalization, or development of drug 
dependency or drug abuse.
•
Suspected transmission via a Pfizer product of an infectious agent, pathogenic or 
non-pathogenic, is considered serious.  The event may be suspected from clinical 
symptoms or laboratory findings indicating an infection in a patient exposed to a 
Pfizer product.  The terms “suspected transmission” and “transmission” are 
considered synonymous.  These cases are considered unexpected and handled as 
serious expedited cases by pharmacovigilance personnel.  Such cases are also 
considered for reporting as product defects, if appropriate.
10.3.3. Recording/Reporting and Follow-up of AEs and/or SAEs
AE and SAE Recording/Reporting
The table below summarizes the requirements for recording adverse events on the CRF
and for reporting serious adverse events on the CT SAE Report Form to Pfizer Safety.  
These requirements are delineated for 3 types of events: (1) SAEs; (2) nonserious AEs; 
and (3) exposure to the study intervention under study during pregnancy or breastfeeding, 
and occupational exposure. 
It should be noted that the CT SAE Report Form for reporting of SAE information is not 
the same as the AE page of the CRF.  When the same data are collected, the forms must 
PPD


Ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) 
Protocol B7981030
Final Protocol Amendment 1, 11 August 2021
PFIZER CONFIDENTIAL
Page 68
be completed in a consistent manner.  AEs should be recorded using concise medical 
terminology and the same AE term should be used on both the CRF and the CT SAE 
Report Form for reporting of SAE information.

supplemental form for 
EDP)  
Note:  Include all SAEs 
associated with exposure 
during pregnancy or

AEs/SAEs associated with 
occupational exposure.
•
When an AE/SAE occurs, it is the responsibility of the investigator to review all 
documentation (eg, hospital progress notes, laboratory reports, and diagnostic 
reports) related to the event.
•
The investigator will then record all relevant AE/SAE information in the CRF.
•
It is not acceptable for the investigator to send photocopies of the participant’s 
medical records to Pfizer Safety in lieu of completion of the CT SAE Report 
Form/AE/SAE CRF page.
•
There may be instances when copies of medical records for certain cases are 
requested by Pfizer Safety.  In this case, all participant identifiers, with the 
exception of the participant number, will be redacted on the copies of the medical 
records before submission to Pfizer Safety.
•
The investigator will attempt to establish a diagnosis of the event based on signs, 
symptoms, and/or other clinical information.  Whenever possible, the diagnosis 
(not the individual signs/symptoms) will be documented as the AE/SAE.
Assessment of Intensity
The investigator will make an assessment of intensity for each AE and SAE reported 
during the study and assign it to 1 of the following categories: 
PPD


Ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) 
Protocol B7981030
Final Protocol Amendment 1, 11 August 2021
PFIZER CONFIDENTIAL
Page 69
•
Mild: An event that is easily tolerated by the participant, causing minimal 
discomfort and not interfering with everyday activities.
•
Moderate: An event that causes sufficient discomfort and interferes with normal 
everyday activities.
•
Severe: An event that prevents normal everyday activities.  An AE that is assessed 
as severe should not be confused with an SAE.  Severe is a category utilized for 
rating the intensity of an event; and both AEs and SAEs can be assessed as severe.
An event is defined as “serious” when it meets at least 1 of the predefined outcomes as 
described in the definition of an SAE, NOT when it is rated as severe.
Assessment of Causality
•
The investigator is obligated to assess the relationship between study intervention 
and each occurrence of each AE/SAE.
•
A “reasonable possibility” of a relationship conveys that there are facts, evidence, 
and/or arguments to suggest a causal relationship, rather than a relationship cannot 
be ruled out.
•
The investigator will use clinical judgment to determine the relationship.
•
Alternative causes, such as underlying disease(s), concomitant therapy, and other 
risk factors, as well as the temporal relationship of the event to study intervention 
administration, will be considered and investigated.
•
The investigator will also consult the IB and/or product information, for marketed 
products, in his/her assessment.
•
For each AE/SAE, the investigator must document in the medical notes that he/she 
has reviewed the AE/SAE and has provided an assessment of causality.
•
There may be situations in which an SAE has occurred and the investigator has 
minimal information to include in the initial report to the sponsor.  However, it is 
very important that the investigator always make an assessment of causality 
for every event before the initial transmission of the SAE data to the sponsor.
•
The investigator may change his/her opinion of causality in light of follow-up 
information and send an SAE follow-up report with the updated causality 
assessment.
•
The causality assessment is one of the criteria used when determining regulatory 
reporting requirements.
PPD

Protocol B7981030
Final Protocol Amendment 1, 11 August 2021
PFIZER CONFIDENTIAL
Page 70
•
If the investigator does not know whether or not the study intervention caused the 
event, then the event will be handled as “related to study intervention” for reporting 
purposes, as defined by the sponsor.  In addition, if the investigator determines 
that an SAE is associated with study procedures, the investigator must record this 
causal relationship in the source documents and CRF, and report such an 
assessment in the dedicated section of the CT SAE Report Form and in accordance 
with the SAE reporting requirements.
Follow-up of AEs and SAEs
•
The investigator is obligated to perform or arrange for the conduct of supplemental 
measurements and/or evaluations as medically indicated or as requested by the 
sponsor to elucidate the nature and/or causality of the AE or SAE as fully as 
possible.  This may include additional laboratory tests or investigations, 
histopathological examinations, or consultation with other healthcare providers.
•
If a participant dies during participation in the study or during a recognized 
follow-up period, the investigator will provide Pfizer Safety with a copy of any 
postmortem findings including histopathology. 
•
New or updated information will be recorded in the originally completed CRF.
•
The investigator will submit any updated SAE data to the sponsor within 24 hours 
of receipt of the information.
10.3.4. Reporting of SAEs
SAE Reporting to Pfizer Safety via an Electronic Data Collection Tool
•
The primary mechanism for reporting an SAE to Pfizer Safety will be the 
electronic data collection tool.
•
If the electronic system is unavailable, then the site will use the paper SAE data 
collection tool (see next section) in order to report the event within 24 hours.
•
The site will enter the SAE data into the electronic system as soon as the data 
become available.
•
After the study is completed at a given site, the electronic data collection tool will 
be taken off-line to prevent the entry of new data or changes to existing data.
•
If a site receives a report of a new SAE from a study participant or receives 
updated data on a previously reported SAE after the electronic data collection tool 
PPD

has been taken off-line, then the site can report this information on a paper SAE 
form (see next section) or to Pfizer Safety by telephone.
SAE Reporting to Pfizer Safety via CT SAE Report Form
•
Facsimile transmission of the CT SAE Report Form is the preferred method to 
transmit this information to Pfizer Safety.
•
In circumstances when the facsimile is not working, notification by telephone is 
acceptable with a copy of the CT SAE Report Form sent by overnight mail or 
courier service.
•
Initial notification via telephone does not replace the need for the investigator to 
complete and sign the CT SAE Report Form pages within the designated reporting 
time frames.

10.4. Appendix 4: Contraceptive Guidance
10.4.1. Male Participant Reproductive Inclusion Criteria
•
No contraception methods are required for male participants in this study, as the 
calculated safety margin is ≥100-fold between the estimated maternal exposure due to 
seminal transfer of ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) and the NOAEL for serious 
manifestations of developmental toxicity in nonclinical studies.
10.4.2. Female Participant Reproductive Inclusion Criteria
A female participant is eligible to participate if she is not pregnant or breastfeeding, and at 
least 1 of the following conditions applies:
•
Is not a WOCBP (see definitions below in Section 10.4.3).
OR
•
Is a WOCBP and using a contraceptive method that is highly effective (with a failure 
rate of <1% per year), preferably with low user dependency, as described below,
during the intervention period and for at least 28 days after the last dose of study 
intervention, which corresponds to the time needed to eliminate any reproductive 
safety risk of the study intervention(s).  The investigator should evaluate the 
effectiveness of the contraceptive method in relationship to the first dose of study 
intervention.
•
A WOCBP agrees not to donate eggs (ova, oocytes) for the purpose of reproduction 
during this period.  The investigator should evaluate the effectiveness of the 
contraceptive method in relationship to the first dose of study intervention.
The investigator is responsible for review of medical history, menstrual history, and recent 
sexual activity to decrease the risk for inclusion of a woman with an early undetected 
pregnancy. 
10.4.3. Woman of Childbearing Potential
A woman is considered fertile following menarche and until becoming postmenopausal 
unless permanently sterile (see below).
If fertility is unclear (eg, amenorrhea in adolescents or athletes) and a menstrual cycle cannot 
be confirmed before the first dose of study intervention, additional evaluation should be 
considered.
Women in the following categories are not considered WOCBP:
1. Premenopausal female with 1 of the following:
•
Documented hysterectomy;
PPD


Ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) 
Protocol B7981030
Final Protocol Amendment 1, 11 August 2021
PFIZER CONFIDENTIAL
Page 73
•
Documented bilateral salpingectomy;
•
Documented bilateral oophorectomy.
For individuals with permanent infertility due to an alternate medical cause other than 
the above, (eg, mullerian agenesis, androgen insensitivity), investigator discretion 
should be applied to determining study entry.
Note: Documentation for any of the above categories can come from the site 
personnel’s review of the participant’s medical records, medical examination, or 
medical history interview.  The method of documentation should be recorded in the 
participant’s medical record for the study.
2. Postmenopausal female.
•
A postmenopausal state is defined as no menses for 12 months without an 
alternative medical cause.  In addition:
•
A high FSH level in the postmenopausal range must be used to confirm a 
postmenopausal state in women under 60 years old and not using hormonal 
contraception or HRT. 
•
A female on HRT and whose menopausal status is in doubt will be excluded 
from the study.
10.4.4. Contraception Methods
Contraceptive use by men or women should be consistent with local availability/regulations 
regarding the use of contraceptive methods for those participating in clinical trials.
Males
No contraception methods are required for male participants in the study.
Females
The following applies to female participants who are considered WOCBP.
Highly Effective Contraceptive Methods
1. Oral, injectable, or implantable progestogen-only hormone contraception associated 
with inhibition of ovulation.
2. Intrauterine device.
3. Intrauterine hormone-releasing system.
4. Bilateral tubal occlusion or bilateral tubal ligation.
PPD


Ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) 
Protocol B7981030
Final Protocol Amendment 1, 11 August 2021
PFIZER CONFIDENTIAL
Page 74
5. Oral, intravaginal, transdermal, or injectable combined (estrogen- and progestogen-
containing) hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation used in 
combination with a barrier method. 
Acceptable barrier methods include:
•
Male or female condom with or without spermicide;
•
Cervical cap, diaphragm, or sponge with spermicide.
Male condom and female condoms should not be used together (due to risk of failure 
with friction).
6. Vasectomized partner.
Vasectomized partner is a highly effective contraceptive method provided that the 
partner is the sole sexual partner of the WOCBP and the absence of sperm has been 
confirmed.  If not, an additional highly effective method of contraception should be 
used.  The spermatogenesis cycle is approximately 90 days.
7. Sexual abstinence.
Sexual abstinence is considered a highly effective method only if defined as 
refraining from heterosexual intercourse during the entire period of risk associated 
with the study intervention.  The reliability of sexual abstinence needs to be 
evaluated in relation to the duration of the study and the preferred and usual lifestyle 
of the participant.

10.5. Appendix 5: Genetics
Use/Analysis of DNA
•
Genetic variation may impact a participant’s response to study intervention, 
susceptibility to, and severity and progression of disease.  Therefore, where local 
regulations and IRBs/ECs allow, a blood sample will be collected for DNA analysis.
•
The scope of the genetic research may be narrow (eg, 1 or more candidate genes) or 
broad (eg, the entire genome), as appropriate to the scientific question under 
investigation.
•
The samples may be analyzed as part of a multistudy assessment of genetic factors 
involved in the response to ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) or study interventions of this 
class to understand treatments for the disease(s) under study or the disease(s) 
themselves.
•
The results of genetic analyses may be reported in the CSR or in a separate study 
summary, or may be used for internal decision making without being included in a 
study report.
•
The sponsor will store the DNA samples in a secure storage space with adequate 
measures to protect confidentiality. 
•
The samples will be retained as indicated:
•
Samples for banking will be stored indefinitely or for another period as per local 
requirements.  
•
Participants may withdraw their consent for the storage and/or use of their Banked 
Biospecimens at any time by making a request to the investigator; in this case, any 
remaining material will be destroyed.  Data already generated from the samples will 
be retained to protect the integrity of existing analyses.  
•
Banked Biospecimens will be labeled with a code.  The key between the code and 
the participant’s personally identifying information (eg, name, address) will be held at 
the study site and will not be provided to the sample bank.

10.6. Appendix 6: Liver Safety: Suggested Actions and Follow-up Assessments 
Potential Cases of Drug-Induced Liver Injury
Humans exposed to a drug who show no sign of liver injury (as determined by elevations in 
transaminases) are termed “tolerators,” while those who show transient liver injury, but adapt 
are termed “adaptors.”  In some participants, transaminase elevations are a harbinger of a 
more serious potential outcome.  These participants fail to adapt and therefore are 
"susceptible" to progressive and serious liver injury, commonly referred to as DILI.  
Participants who experience a transaminase elevation above 3 × ULN should be monitored 
more frequently to determine if they are an “adaptor” or are “susceptible.”
In the majority of DILI cases, elevations in AST and/or ALT precede TBili elevations 
(>2 × ULN) by several days or weeks.  The increase in TBili typically occurs while 
AST/ALT is/are still elevated above 3 × ULN (ie, AST/ALT and TBili values will be 
elevated within the same laboratory sample).  In rare instances, by the time TBili elevations 
are detected, AST/ALT values might have decreased.  This occurrence is still regarded as a 
potential DILI.  Therefore, abnormal elevations in either AST OR ALT in addition to TBili 
that meet the criteria outlined below are considered potential DILI (assessed per Hy’s law 
criteria) cases and should always be considered important medical events, even before all 
other possible causes of liver injury have been excluded.
The threshold of laboratory abnormalities for a potential DILI case depends on the 
participant’s individual baseline values and underlying conditions.  Participants who present 
with the following laboratory abnormalities should be evaluated further as potential DILI 
(Hy’s law) cases to definitively determine the etiology of the abnormal laboratory values:
•
Participants with AST/ALT and TBili baseline values within the normal range who 
subsequently present with AST OR ALT values >3 × ULN AND a TBili value 
>2 × ULN with no evidence of hemolysis and an alkaline phosphatase value 
<2 × ULN or not available.
•
For participants with baseline AST OR ALT OR TBili values above the ULN, the 
following threshold values are used in the definition mentioned above, as needed, 
depending on which values are above the ULN at baseline:
•
Preexisting AST or ALT baseline values above the normal range: AST or ALT 
values >2 times the baseline values AND >3 × ULN; or >8 × ULN (whichever is 
smaller).
•
Preexisting values of TBili above the normal range: TBili level increased from 
baseline value by an amount of at least 1 × ULN or if the value reaches 
>3 × ULN (whichever is smaller).
Rises in AST/ALT and TBili separated by more than a few weeks should be assessed 
individually based on clinical judgment; any case where uncertainty remains as to whether it 
represents a potential Hy’s law case should be reviewed with the sponsor.

The participant should return to the investigator site and be evaluated as soon as possible, 
preferably within 48 hours from awareness of the abnormal results.  This evaluation should 
include laboratory tests, detailed history, and physical assessment.  
In addition to repeating measurements of AST and ALT and TBili for suspected cases of 
Hy’s law, additional laboratory tests should include albumin, CK, direct and indirect 
bilirubin, GGT, PT/INR, total bile acids, and alkaline phosphatase.  Consideration should 
also be given to drawing a separate tube of clotted blood and an anticoagulated tube of blood 
for further testing, as needed, for further contemporaneous analyses at the time of the 
recognized initial abnormalities to determine etiology.  A detailed history, including 
relevant information, such as review of ethanol, acetaminophen/paracetamol (either by itself 
or as a coformulated product in prescription or over-the-counter medications), recreational 
drug, supplement (herbal) use and consumption, family history, sexual history, travel history, 
history of contact with a jaundiced person, surgery, blood transfusion, history of liver or 
allergic disease, and potential occupational exposure to chemicals, should be collected.  
Further testing for acute hepatitis A, B, C, D, and E infection and liver imaging (eg, biliary 
tract) and collection of serum samples for acetaminophen/paracetamol drug and/or protein 
adduct levels may be warranted. 
All cases demonstrated on repeat testing as meeting the laboratory criteria of AST/ALT and 
TBili elevation defined above should be considered potential DILI (Hy’s law) cases if no 
other reason for the LFT abnormalities has yet been found.  Such potential DILI (Hy’s 
law) cases are to be reported as SAEs, irrespective of availability of all the results of the 
investigations performed to determine etiology of the LFT abnormalities.
A potential DILI (Hy’s law) case becomes a confirmed case only after all results of 
reasonable investigations have been received and have excluded an alternative etiology.

Example: How to provide a mark (±) on the color bar and how to calculate the score.
In visual analogue scores, the length of the bar might be different from page to page when printed off. Scores 
should be calculated as follows:  
1.
Measure the length of the bar on the printed page (for example 11 cm).
2.
Measure the placement of the “X” (distance from the top of the bar) (for example 7 cm from the top). 
3.
Calculate the relative placement of the “X” (for example 7 cm/11 cm).  This is the score. 
This allows for a more accurate measurement of “X” regardless of the actual length of the bar on the printed 
page.

1. AMENDMENTS FROM PREVIOUS VERSION(S) 
This Statistical Analysis Plan for Study B7981030 is based on the Protocol Amendment 1,
dated 11 August 2021.  Additions include:
•
Section 2.2; added an additional taste objective.
•
Section 8.2.2; added descriptive stats and depiction of taste assessments for 
Treatment C.
2. INTRODUCTION
Ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) is a selective covalent inhibitor of JAK3 and the TEC family
kinases and is currently under development for the treatment of AA, RA, vitiligo, UC, and
CD. The primary objective of this study is to obtain an estimate of the bioavailability of a 
single oral dose of pediatric ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) capsules (3 x 10 mg capsules)
relative to the 30 mg adult capsule in healthy adult participants under fasting conditions.
Additionally, an alternative pediatric formulation utilizing a spray congealed beads will also
be evaluated.
2.1. Study Design
The study will be conducted as a Phase 1, open-label, single dose, randomized, 3 periods,
cross-over design in a single cohort of approximately 12 healthy male or female participants
at a single center. Participants will be randomized into 2 sequences of treatment as
described in Table 1:
Sequence 1 (n=6): A B C
Sequence 2 (n=6): B A C

Since ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) is rapidly eliminated (t½ ~2 hours), there will be at least a
48-hour washout between each dose.
Blood samples for PK analysis will be collected pre-dose and at 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9,
12, 16 and 24 hours post-dose.
Participants will participate in the study up to approximately 2.5 months, including the
screening and follow-up periods. Participants will be screened within 28 days of the first
dose of study intervention and if all entry criteria are fulfilled, the participants will report to
the CRU on the day prior to Period 1 Day 1 dosing (Day -1). On Day 1 of each period,
participants will receive a single dose of study intervention. Capsules and spray congealed
beads will be administered with approximately 240 mL of ambient temperature water, and
will be swallowed (not chewed). Participants will be fasted for at least 10 hours pre-dosing
and 4 hours post-dosing.
Participants will be confined in the CRU for a total of at least 7 days (6 nights which 
includes admission to the CRU on Day -1) and discharged at the discretion of the 
investigator.
A follow-up phone call will be made at least 28 calendar days and up to 35 calendar days 
after the last administration of the study interventions to capture any potential AE and 
confirm appropriate contraceptive usage.
Participants who withdraw from the study may be replaced at the discretion of the sponsor.

To assess the sensory characteristics and overall palatability of spray congealed 
beads by healthy participants.
3. INTERIM ANALYSES, FINAL ANALYSES AND UNBLINDING
No formal interim analysis will be conducted for this study. As this is an open-label study, 
the sponsor may conduct unblinded reviews of the data during the course of the study for the 
purpose of safety assessment.
4. HYPOTHESES AND DECISION RULES
4.1. Statistical Hypotheses
No hypotheses are required.
4.2. Statistical Decision Rules
No decision rules are required.
5. ANALYSIS SETS

The PK concentration population is defined as all participants randomized and treated who 
have at least 1 concentration in at least 1 treatment period.
5.1.2. Parameter Analysis Set
The PK parameter analysis population is defined as all participants randomized and treated
who have at least 1 of the PK parameters of primary interest in at least 1 treatment period.
5.2. Pharmacodynamic Analysis Set
None.
5.3. Safety Analysis Set

5.5. Treatment Misallocations 
All analyses will be performed on an “as-treated” basis and will not include data from
participants who are randomized but not treated.
If a participant takes a treatment that is not consistent with the treatment they are assigned to, 
for example takes a treatment out of sequence or takes the same treatment twice, then they 
will be reported under the treatment that they actually receive for all safety and PK analyses, 
where applicable.
5.6. Protocol Deviations
Participants who experience events that may affect their PK profile (eg, lack of compliance 
with dosing) may be excluded from the PK analysis.  At the discretion of the 
pharmacokineticist a concentration value may also be excluded if the deviation in sampling 
time is of sufficient concern or if the concentration is anomalous for any other reason.
A full list of protocol deviations will be compiled and reviewed to identify major and minor 
deviations prior to database closure.
5.6.1. Deviations Assessed Prior to Randomization
At Screening, the investigator will assess participants against the inclusion and exclusion 
criteria as set out in Sections 5.1 and 5.2 of the protocol.
5.6.2. Deviations Assessed Post-Randomization
A full list of protocol deviations for the study report will be compiled prior to database 
closure.  Any significant deviation from the protocol will be reviewed prior to database 
closure and a decision taken regarding evaluation for each analysis population.
6. ENDPOINTS AND COVARIATES
6.1. Efficacy Endpoint(s)
None.
6.2. Safety Endpoints
Any events occurring following start of treatment or increasing in severity will be counted as
treatment emergent.
Events that occur in a non-treatment period (for example, Washout or Follow-up) will be 
counted as treatment emergent and attributed to the previous treatment taken.
The following data are considered in standard safety summaries (see protocol for collection 
days and list of parameters):

7. HANDLING OF MISSING VALUES
For the analysis of safety endpoints, the sponsor data standard rules for imputation will be 
applied.
7.1. Concentrations Below the Limit of Quantification
In all data presentations (except listings), concentrations below the limit of quantification 
(BLQ) will be set to zero.  (In listings BLQ values will be reported as “<LLQ”, where LLQ 
will be replaced with the value for the lower limit of quantification.)
7.2. Deviations, Missing Concentrations and Anomalous Values
In summary tables and plots of median profiles, statistics will be calculated having set 
concentrations to missing if 1 of the following cases is true:

1. A concentration has been collected as ND (i.e not done) or NS (ie, no sample).
2. A deviation in sampling time is of sufficient concern or a concentration has been 
flagged anomalous by the pharmacokineticist.
Note that summary statistics will not be presented at a particular time point if more than 
50% of the data are missing.
7.3. Pharmacokinetic Parameters
Actual PK sampling times will be used in the derivation of PK parameters.
If a PK parameter cannot be derived from a subject’s concentration data, the parameter will 
be coded as NC (ie, not calculated). (Note that NC values will not be generated beyond the 
day that a subject discontinues.)
In summary tables, statistics will be calculated by setting NC values to missing; and statistics 
will be presented for a particular treatment with ≥3 evaluable measurements.  For statistical 
analyses (ie analysis of variance), PK parameters coded as NC will also be set to missing; 
and analyses will not be performed for a particular parameter if more than 50% of the data 
are NC.
If an individual subject has a known biased estimate of a PK parameter (due for example to 
an unexpected event such as vomiting before all the compound is adequately absorbed in the 
body), this will be footnoted in summary tables and will not be included in the calculation of 
summary statistics or statistical analyses.
8. STATISTICAL METHODOLOGY AND STATISTICAL ANALYSES
8.1. Statistical Methods
Precision of the estimate of PK parameters will be determined by constructing 
90% confidence intervals around the estimated difference between the Test and Reference 
treatments using a mixed effects model based on natural log transformed data.  The mixed 
effects model will be implemented using SAS Proc Mixed, with REML estimation method 
and Kenward-Roger degrees of freedom algorithm.
8.2. Statistical Analyses
8.2.1. Pharmacokinetic Analysis
To estimate the relative BA of ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) pediatric capsule (3 × 10 mg
capsules) relative to adult 30 mg capsule, the natural log transformed AUCinf (if data 
permit), AUClast and Cmax will be analyzed using a mixed effects model with sequence, period 
and treatment as fixed effects and participant within sequence as a random effect. Estimates 
of the adjusted mean differences (Test-Reference) and corresponding 90% confidence 
intervals will be obtained from the model. The adjusted mean differences and 
90% confidence intervals for the differences will be exponentiated to provide estimates of the

ratio of adjusted geometric means (Test/Reference) and 90% confidence intervals for the 
ratios. Treatment A (30 mg capsule form of ritlecitinib [PF-06651600] under fasted 
conditions) will be the Reference treatment while Treatment B (3 × 10 mg pediatric capsules 
of ritlecitinib [PF-06651600] under fasted conditions) will be the Test treatment. Data from 
Period 3 (Treatment C) will be excluded from this analysis.
To estimate the relative BA of ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) administered as 30 mg spray
congealed beads (Test) relative to adult 30 mg capsule (Reference) under fasted conditions,
the natural log transformed AUCinf (if data permit), AUClast and Cmax will be analyzed using 
a mixed effects model with sequence and treatment as fixed effects and participant within
sequence as a random effect. Estimates of the adjusted mean differences (Test-Reference)
and corresponding 90% confidence intervals will be obtained from the model. The adjusted
mean differences and 90% confidence intervals for the differences will be exponentiated to
provide estimates of the ratio of adjusted geometric means (Test/Reference) and 
90% confidence intervals for the ratios. Treatment A (30 mg capsule of ritlecitinib
[PF-06651600] under fasted conditions) will be the Reference treatment while Treatment C
(30 mg spray congealed beads of ritlecitinib [PF-06651600] under fasted conditions) will be
the Test treatment.
Residuals from the model will be examined for normality and the presence of outliers via 
visual inspection of plots of residuals vs predicted values and normal probability plots of 
residuals but these will not be included in the clinical study report.  If there are major 
deviations from normality or outliers, then the effect of these on the conclusions will be 
investigated through alternative transformations and/or analyses excluding outliers.  
Justification for any alternative to the planned analysis will be given in the report of the 
study.
