| Ocrelizumab 200mg Participants received two intravenous (IV) infusions of 200 mg ocrelizumab administered on Day 1 and Day 15 and placebo IV infliximab infusions administered on Day 1, Day 15, Week 6, and Week 14. In addition to the study medication, all patients were to receive methotrexate at a stable dose of 7.5-25 mg/week and folic acid or equivalent at a dose of 5 mg/week to minimize methotrexate toxicity. | 15 |
| Infliximab 5mg/kg Participants received four IV infusions of 5 mg/kg infliximab administered on Day 1, Day 15, Week 6, and Week 14 and placebo ocrelizumab infusions administered on Day 1 and Day 15. In addition to the study medication, all patients were to receive methotrexate at a stable dose of 7.5-25 mg/week and folic acid or equivalent at a dose of 5 mg/week to minimize methotrexate toxicity. | 13 |
