The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of Iguratimod combined with Tofacitinib in the treatment of csDMARD-IR patients with active moderate-to-severe rheumatoid arthritis
After being informed about the study and potential risks, all patients giving written informed consent will undergo a 1-week screening period to determine eligibility for study entry. At week 0, patients who meet the eligibility requirements will be randomized in a double-blind manner (participant and investigator) in a 1:1 ratio to Iguratimod (25mg, twice daily) combined with Tofacitinib (5mg, twice daily) or placebo (25mg, twice daily) combined with Tofacitinib (5mg, twice daily).
