PRIMARY outcome
Timeframe: Week 24Population: The Full Analysis Set (FAS) consisted of all randomized subjects who received at least 1 dose of study medication administration and provided any efficacy data after the first administration. NRI = non-responder imputation.
The assessments are based on a 20 % or greater improvement from Baseline to Week 24 in the number of tender joints, in the number of swollen joints, and a 20 % or greater improvement in at least 3 of the 5 remaining core set measures: Patient's Global Assessment of Disease Activity (PtGADA), Physician's Global Assessment of Disease Activity (PhGADA), Patient's Assessment of Arthritis Pain (PtAAP), physical function as assessed by the Health Assessment Questionnaire - Disability Index (HAQ-DI) and C-Reactive Protein (CRP).

SECONDARY outcome
Timeframe: Baseline, Week 24Population: The Full Analysis Set (FAS) consisted of all randomized subjects who received at least 1 dose of study medication administration and provided any efficacy data after the first administration. LOCF = last observation carried forward. Only subjects with available HAQ-DI scores at week 24 were included.
The HAQ-DI assesses the degree of difficulty experienced in 8 domains of daily living activities using 20 questions. Each domain consists of 2 or 3 items. For each question, the level of difficulty is scored from 0 to 3. A total score is computed from the item scores using the scoring rules provided by the index's author. HAQ-DI scores range from 0 to 3. Lower scores indicate less disability. Negative values indicate improvement from Baseline.
