Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to assess the usability of the VIBEX MTX device for SC self-injection of methotrexate.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Primary objective:

\- To assess the safe usability of the VIBEX MTX device for subcutaneous (SC) self-injection of methotrexate (MTX) in adult patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) after standardized training by site personnel and review of written instructions

Secondary objectives:

* To evaluate the reliability and robustness of the VIBEX MTX device
* To evaluate the safety and local tolerance of an SC self-injection of MTX using the VIBEX MTX device
* To evaluate the effectiveness and ease of use of the VIBEX MTX device patient education tools for SC self-injection
