| (1) The safety evaluation indices of this clinical trial are as follows: adverse events (adverse event incidence rate, serious adverse event incidence rate, and side effect incidence rate), clinical examination (hematological examination, blood biochemical examination, and urinalysis), all medically important indicators (physical findings, vital signs, electrocardiogram results, echocardiographic findings, etc.). (2) CHAP score (presence or absence of decrease): presence or absence of a score decrease of 1 or more from baseline at 2, 4, 8, 12, and 24 weeks, every 12 weeks thereafter, and at the time of the study completion or drug discontinuation. (3) CHAP score: change from baseline at 2, 4, 8, 12, and 24 weeks, every 12 weeks thereafter, and at the time of the study completion or drug discontinuation. (4) CHAP score minus CRP score: change from baseline at 2, 4, 8, 12, and 24 weeks, every 12 weeks thereafter, and at the time of the study completion or drug discontinuation. (5) Hb (g/dL): change from baseline at 2, 4, 8, 12, and 24 weeks, every 12 weeks thereafter, and at the time of the study completion or drug discontinuation. (6) Alb (g/dL): change from baseline at 2, 4, 8, 12, and 24 weeks, every 12 weeks thereafter, and at the time of the study completion or drug discontinuation. (7) CRP (mg/dL): change from baseline at 2, 4, 8, 12, and 24 weeks, every 12 weeks thereafter, and at the time of the study completion or drug discontinuation. (8) Physician global assessment (disease activity assessment, 100 mm visual analog scale [VAS]): change from baseline at 4, 8, 12, and 24 weeks, every 12 weeks thereafter, and at the time of the study completion or drug discontinuation. (9) Patient global assessment (disease activity assessment, 100 mm VAS): change from baseline at 4, 8, 12, and 24 weeks, every 12 weeks thereafter, and at the time of the study completion or drug discontinuation. (10) Lymph node changes in subjects with lymphadenopathy: change from baseline at 2 | — |
