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

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).

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.
