MeasureTime frameDescription
Clinical Disease Activity Index (CDAI) Score at 6 Months for Tofacitinib Monotherapy vs Tofacitinib With Methotrexate (MTX)At month 6 follow up visitCDAI was a simplified index for assessing the disease activity comprising of the swollen joint counts (SJC), tender/painful joint counts (TJC), participant's global assessment of disease activity (PtGA) and physician's global assessment of disease activity (PGA). CDAI is the numerical sum of 4 outcome parameters: SJC and TJC (based on 28-joint assessment range from 0 to 28, higher scores indicated worse condition), PtGA and PGA (score range from 0 to 10, assessed on 0-10 centimeter (cm) visual analog scale (VAS); higher scores indicated greater affection due to disease activity). CDAI total score = 0 (no disease) to 76 (severe disease), higher scores indicated worse condition. In this outcome measure, CDAI for all and non-switchers participants was reported.

Clinical Disease Activity Index (CDAI) Score at 6 Months for Tofacitinib Monotherapy vs Tofacitinib With Methotrexate (MTX)

CDAI was a simplified index for assessing the disease activity comprising of the swollen joint counts (SJC), tender/painful joint counts (TJC), participant's global assessment of disease activity (PtGA) and physician's global assessment of disease activity (PGA). CDAI is the numerical sum of 4 outcome parameters: SJC and TJC (based on 28-joint assessment range from 0 to 28, higher scores indicated worse condition), PtGA and PGA (score range from 0 to 10, assessed on 0-10 centimeter (cm) visual analog scale (VAS); higher scores indicated greater affection due to disease activity). CDAI total score = 0 (no disease) to 76 (severe disease), higher scores indicated worse condition. In this outcome measure, CDAI for all and non-switchers participants was reported.

Time frame: At month 6 follow up visit

CDAI Score at 6 Months for Tofacitinib Monotherapy vs TNFi Monotherapy

CDAI was a simplified index for assessing the disease activity comprising of the swollen joint counts (SJC), tender/painful joint counts (TJC), participant's global assessment of disease activity (PtGA) and physician's global assessment of disease activity (PGA). CDAI is the numerical sum of 4 outcome parameters: SJC and TJC (based on 28-joint assessment range from 0 to 28, higher scores indicated worse condition), PtGA and PGA (score range from 0 to 10, assessed on 0-10 centimeter (cm) visual analog scale (VAS); higher scores indicated greater affection due to disease activity). CDAI total score = 0 (no disease) to 76 (severe disease), higher scores indicated worse condition. In this outcome measure, CDAI for all and non-switchers participants was reported.
