Brief Summary

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

This trial is designed to determine what effects the human body has on the investigational medicine, ABP 798, and what effects the body has on the investigational medicine after you have been given it, and if this is comparable to what is seen for the licensed medicine, rituximab, in patients with moderate or severe RA.

This study will also assess if the investigational medicine is safe and effective in treating moderate or severe RA compared to the licensed medicine.

ABP 798 / ABP 798

Participants received ABP 798 on days 1 and 15 (dose 1) and a second dose of ABP 798 at weeks 24 and 26 (dose 2). Each dose consisted of two 1000 mg intravenous infusions 2 weeks apart.
