Percentage of Participants Achieving an HAQ-DI Decrease of at Least 0.22 at Month 6Month 6The HAQ-DI is a participant-reported assessment of ability to perform tasks in 8 categories of daily living activities: dressing and grooming, arising, eating, walking, reach, grip, hygiene and other activities over the past week. Each activity category consists of 2 to 3 items. Each item is scored on 4-point scale from 0 to 3: 0=no difficulty; 1=some difficulty; 2=much difficulty; 3=unable to do. Any activity requiring assistance from another individual or the use of an assistive device adjusts to a minimum score of 2 to represent a more limited functional status. Overall score was computed as the sum of domain scores and divided by the number of domains answered. Total possible score ranges from 0 to 3 where 0 = least difficulty and 3 = extreme difficulty. A decrease of 0.22 or more is considered a positive response.
Change From Baseline in the Short-Form-36 (SF-36) Health Survey, Physical Component Score at Month 6Month 6The SF-36 health survey is a 36-item measure that evaluates 8 domains: physical functioning, role physical, bodily pain, general health, vitality, social functioning, role emotional, and mental health.

Normalized domain scores, PCS and MCS scores are used in the analyses. The component and domain scores were scored using the United States (US) 1998 general population norms. The resulting norm-based scores for both the SF-36 version 2 (v2) and SF-36 health domain scales and component summary measures have means of 50 and standard deviations of 10. A higher PCS score represents better physical health status.

Change From Baseline in the EuroQol European Quality of Life-5 Dimensions (EuroQol EQ-5D) at Month 6Month 6The EQ-5D is a participant rated questionnaire to assess health-related quality of life in terms of a single utility score. Health State Profile component assesses level of current health for 5 domains: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain and discomfort, and anxiety and depression; 1 indicates better health state (no problems); 3 indicates worst health state (confined to bed). This profile of scores across the 5-dimensions (e.g. 11231, 33212, etc.) is transformed into a single health utility score using a formula developed by the EuroQol Group that applies country specific preference weights. Score is transformed and results in a total score range -0.594 to 1.000; higher score indicates a better health state. The VAS component rated the current health state on a scale ranging from 0 (worst imaginable health state) to 100 (best imaginable health state); higher scores indicating a better health state.
Change From Baseline in the Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Fatigue (FACIT-F) Scale Total Score at Month 6Month 6FACIT-F is a 13-item questionnaire. Participants scored each item on a 5-point scale: 0 (not at all) to 4 (very much). The larger the participant's response (with the exception of 2 negatively stated), the greater the participant's fatigue. For all questions, except for the 2 negatively stated ones, the code was reversed and a new score was calculated as (4 minus the participant's response). The sum of all responses resulted in the FACIT-Fatigue score for a total possible score of 0 (worse score) to 52 (better score).
Change From Baseline in Health Assessment Questionnaire - Disability Index (HAQ-DI) at Month 6Month 6The HAQ-DI is a participant-reported assessment of ability to perform tasks in 8 categories of daily living activities: dressing and grooming, arising, eating, walking, reach, grip, hygiene and other activities over the past week. Each activity category consists of 2 to 3 items. Each item is scored on 4-point scale from 0 to 3: 0=no difficulty; 1=some difficulty; 2=much difficulty; 3=unable to do. Any activity requiring assistance from another individual or the use of an assistive device adjusts to a minimum score of 2 to represent a more limited functional status. Overall score was computed as the sum of domain scores and divided by the number of domains answered. Total possible score ranges from 0 to 3 where 0 = least difficulty and 3 = extreme difficulty.

Change From Baseline in Disease Activity Score 28-4 (DAS28-4) Including Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR) at Month 6

DAS28-4 (ESR) was calculated from the SJC and TJC (both based on a 28-joint assessment), PtGA (assessed on a 0 to 10 cm VAS; higher scores indicate greater affection due to disease activity) and ESR (mm/hour) using the following: DAS28-4(ESR) = 0.56\*sqrt(TJC28) + 0.28\*sqrt(SJC28) + 0.70\*ln(ESR) + 0.014\* PtGA (mm). Total score range: 0 to 9.4, higher score indicated higher disease activity. DAS28-3 (ESR) ≤3.2 indicates low disease activity, \>3.2 to 5.1 indicates moderate to high disease activity, and \<2.6 indicates remission.

Change From Baseline in Health Assessment Questionnaire - Disability Index (HAQ-DI) at Month 6

The HAQ-DI is a participant-reported assessment of ability to perform tasks in 8 categories of daily living activities: dressing and grooming, arising, eating, walking, reach, grip, hygiene and other activities over the past week. Each activity category consists of 2 to 3 items. Each item is scored on 4-point scale from 0 to 3: 0=no difficulty; 1=some difficulty; 2=much difficulty; 3=unable to do. Any activity requiring assistance from another individual or the use of an assistive device adjusts to a minimum score of 2 to represent a more limited functional status. Overall score was computed as the sum of domain scores and divided by the number of domains answered. Total possible score ranges from 0 to 3 where 0 = least difficulty and 3 = extreme difficulty.

Change From Baseline in the EuroQol European Quality of Life-5 Dimensions (EuroQol EQ-5D) at Month 6

The EQ-5D is a participant rated questionnaire to assess health-related quality of life in terms of a single utility score. Health State Profile component assesses level of current health for 5 domains: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain and discomfort, and anxiety and depression; 1 indicates better health state (no problems); 3 indicates worst health state (confined to bed). This profile of scores across the 5-dimensions (e.g. 11231, 33212, etc.) is transformed into a single health utility score using a formula developed by the EuroQol Group that applies country specific preference weights. Score is transformed and results in a total score range -0.594 to 1.000; higher score indicates a better health state. The VAS component rated the current health state on a scale ranging from 0 (worst imaginable health state) to 100 (best imaginable health state); higher scores indicating a better health state.

Change From Baseline in the Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Fatigue (FACIT-F) Scale Total Score at Month 6

FACIT-F is a 13-item questionnaire. Participants scored each item on a 5-point scale: 0 (not at all) to 4 (very much). The larger the participant's response (with the exception of 2 negatively stated), the greater the participant's fatigue. For all questions, except for the 2 negatively stated ones, the code was reversed and a new score was calculated as (4 minus the participant's response). The sum of all responses resulted in the FACIT-Fatigue score for a total possible score of 0 (worse score) to 52 (better score).

Change From Baseline in the Work Productivity and Activity Impairment (WPAI) Questionnaire at Month 6

The WPAI: Rheumatoid Arthritis is a 6 item questionnaire that is specific for rheumatoid arthritis and yields four types of scores: absenteeism, presenteesism (impairment at work/reduced job effectiveness), work productivity loss and activity impairment. WPAI outcomes are expressed as impairment percentages ranging from 0 to 100, with higher numbers indicating greater impairment and less productivity.

Percentage of Participants Achieving an HAQ-DI Decrease of at Least 0.22 at Month 6

The HAQ-DI is a participant-reported assessment of ability to perform tasks in 8 categories of daily living activities: dressing and grooming, arising, eating, walking, reach, grip, hygiene and other activities over the past week. Each activity category consists of 2 to 3 items. Each item is scored on 4-point scale from 0 to 3: 0=no difficulty; 1=some difficulty; 2=much difficulty; 3=unable to do. Any activity requiring assistance from another individual or the use of an assistive device adjusts to a minimum score of 2 to represent a more limited functional status. Overall score was computed as the sum of domain scores and divided by the number of domains answered. Total possible score ranges from 0 to 3 where 0 = least difficulty and 3 = extreme difficulty. A decrease of 0.22 or more is considered a positive response.
