Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: - Adult men and women, of more than 18 to 80 years of age (inclusive) - Diagnosis of adult-onset RA as defined by the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) 2010 criteria, for at least 6 months before screening - Moderately to severely active RA as defined by at least 4/28 tender joints and at least 4/28 swollen joints - For Part 2 only: Active synovitis and/or osteitis of the hand/wrist as determined by MRI - Patients must be taking one of the following anti-TNF-a therapies: certolizumab, golimumab, etanercept, adalimumab, infliximab or approved biosimilars of these, given at a recommended approved and stable dose for at least 12 weeks before randomization, and have experienced in the opinion of the Investigator an inadequate response to anti-TNF-a therapy with a DAS28 => 3.2 - Patients must be taking MTX (PO, SC, or IM) for at least 12 weeks before randomization and must be on a stable dose for at least 4 weeks before randomization (5.0 to 25 mg/week). The dose of MTX is expected to remain stable throughout the study and may be adjusted only for safety reasons. Local standard-of-care should be followed for concomitant administration of folic acid - Patients on glucocorticoids (=65 years) yes F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range 30

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: - Previous, current or planned non-TNF-a therapy treatment for RA, such as tocilizumab, anakinra, abatacept or rituximab, etc. - Currently receiving concomitant treatment with hydroxychloroquine, sulfasalazine, or leflunomide - Patients currently on IV infliximab or an approved IV biosimilar of it are excluded - Parenteral glucocorticoids administration (IM, IV) of =50 mg within 6 weeks prior to planned randomization, or =50 mg within 4 weeks prior to planned randomization, or scheduled parenteral administrations during the study - Joints injected with intra-articular glucocorticoids or hyaluronic acid within 6 weeks prior to planned randomization - Active inflammatory disease of the joints not related to RA or other systemic autoimmune disease - Systemic autoimmune disease other than RA - Juvenile idiopathic arthritis or juvenile RA and/or RA developed before the age of 16 - Active fibromyalgia that makes appropriate assessment of RA disease activity challenging in the opinion of the Investigator - RA patients functional status class IV according to the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) 1991 criteria (i.e., largely or wholly incapacitated permitting little or no self-care, such as being bedridden or confined to wheelchair) - Patients with severe chronic or recurrent viral, bacterial, parasitic or fungal infections - History of active hepatitis B virus, hepatitis C virus, or human immunodeficiency virus infection - Any identified confirmed congenital or acquired immunodeficiency - Abnormal laboratory test results - Other unstable somatic diseases (apart from RA) that can increase the probability of adverse events during the study or can influence the estimation of symptom manifestation of RA; mask, enhance or alter the symptoms of RA or cause clinical or laboratory symptoms similar to that of RA - Major surgery within 28 days prior to randomization, or planned major surgery (e.g., elective joint replacement surgery) during the trial - Any mental disorder - Myocardial infarction within less than 6 months prior to participation in the study - Severe central or peripheral nervous system diseases - Chronic drug or alcohol abuse - Known hypersensitivity to any components of the medications used in the study - Acute forms of any infectious diseases or history of chronic infections with severe clinical manifestations - Presence of malignant neoplasm, with the exception of adequately treated basal cell carcinoma and cervical carcinoma in situ and any malignancy with complete remission of more than 5 years - German sites: Patients who are institutionalized due to regulatory or juridical order - German sites: Patients who are occupationally or medically dependent on the Sponsor, the Investigator, or the medical site
