Summary

Primary Objective:

To evaluate the efficacy of KEVZARA (sarilumab) in participants with polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) as assessed by the proportion of participants with sustained remission for sarilumab with a shorter corticosteroid (CS) tapering regimen as compared to placebo with a longer CS tapering regimen.

Secondary Objectives:

* To demonstrate the efficacy of sarilumab in participants with PMR compared to placebo, in combination with a CS taper with regards to:
* Clinical responses (such as components of sustained remission, disease remission rates, time to first disease flare) over time.
* Cumulative CS (including prednisone) exposure.
* To assess the safety (including immunogenicity) and tolerability of sarilumab in participants with PMR.
* To measure sarilumab serum concentrations in participants with PMR.
* To assess the effect of sarilumab in reducing glucocorticoid toxicity as measured by the composite glucocorticoid toxicity index (GTI) questionnaire.
