CT-P47, containing the active ingredient tocilizumab, is a recombinant humanized monoclonal antibody that is being developed as a similar biological medicinal product to RoActemra/Actemra. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate similar efficacy and safety of CT-P47 and RoActemra in patients with moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis when co-administered with methotrexate.
This is a phase 3 study to compare efficacy and safety of CT-P47 and RoActemra in patients with moderate to severe active rheumatoid arthritis.
