Randomized Trial Comparing Efficacy of Adalimumab, Anakinra and Tocilizumab in Non-infectious Refractory Uveitis — RUBI  

Uveitis Clinical Trial

Official title:
Multicentre, Randomized, Multi-arm Trial Comparing the Efficacy and Safety of Adalimumab, Anakinra and Tocilizumab in Subjects With Non-infectious Refractory Uveitis RUBI: Refractory Uveitis BIotherapies

Clinical Trial Summary

RUBI, is the first prospective randomized, head to head study, comparing Adalimumab to either anakinra, or tocilizumab in refractory Non Infectious Uveitis (NIU). There is no firm evidence or randomized controlled trials directly addressing the best biologic agent in severe and refractory NIU. NIU can cause devastating visual loss and up to 20% of legal blindness. Corticosteroids and immunosuppressants failed to demonstrate sustainable remission over 70 % of refractory/relapsing severe uveitis. The incidence of blindness in NIU has been dramatically reduced in the recent years with the use of biologics, raising the question of whether these compounds should be used earlier in the treatment of severe non infectious uveitis. Contrasting with immunosuppressors, biotherapies act rapidly and are highly effective in steroid's sparing thus preventing occurrence of cataract and/or glaucoma.

Despite a strong rationale, these compounds are not yet approved in uveitis, which guarantees the innovative nature of this study that aims selecting or dropping any arm when evidence of efficacy already exists.
