About this trial
The goal of this clinical study is to learn more about the study drug GS-0151. The study is done to find how safe, well-tolerated the drug is. This will also assess how the drug is absorbed, modified, distributed and cleared from the body (the pharmacokinetics (PK) of the drug), when given multiple times to participants with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
The primary objectives of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of multiple ascending doses of GS-0151 in participants with RA and to characterize the PK of GS-0151 following multiple doses of GS-0151 in participants with RA.
Eligibility criteria
Qualifiers

Oral hydroxychloroquine ≤ 400 mg/day or chloroquine ≤ 250 mg/day.
Oral sulfasalazine 1 to 3 g/day.
Disqualifiers
Have a diagnosis of any generalized musculoskeletal disorder that would interfere with study procedures or assessments per the discretion of the investigator.
History of opportunistic infection or immunodeficiency syndrome that would put the individual at risk, as per investigator's judgment.
Active infection that is clinically significant, per investigator's judgment, or any infection requiring hospitalization or treatment with intravenous anti-infectives within 60 days of screening; or any infection requiring oral anti-infective therapy within 30 days of screening.
History of or current moderate to severe congestive heart failure (New York Heart Association class III or IV), or within the last 6 months prior to screening.
