This open-label study will evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of RoActemra/Actemra (tocilizumab) in patients with moderate to severe active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) on background non-biologic DMARDs who have an inadequate response to current non-biologic DMARDs. Patients will receive 8 mg/kg RoActemra/Actemra as an intravenous infusion every 24 weeks for a total of 6 infusions. The anticipated time on study treatment is 24 weeks.
