Eligibility Criteria
Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.
Inclusion Criteria
1. Subjects who developed RA within one year after onset of RA.
2. Subjects who have never received MTX before (MTX naive)
3. Subjects whose disease activity is moderate or higher (DAS28(ESR) ≥ 3.2)
4. Subjects must satisfy at least two of the three criteria (Anti-CCP antibody positive, Rheumatoid factor positive, Presence of X-ray erosion) for poor prognostic factors. The anti-CCP antibody positive is essential for every patient.
Exclusion Criteria
* Patients who have a secondary, non-inflammatory type of arthritis.
* Patients who have used with MTX, reflunomide, or any other biologics prior to the start of study drug administration.
* Patients who have NYHA (New York Heart Association) Class III or IV congestive heart failure
* Patients who currently have, or who have a history of, tuberculosis.
