A Study of ARRY-438162 in Patients With Rheumatoid Arthritis

This is a Phase 2 study, involving a 12-week treatment period, designed to evaluate the effectiveness of investigational study drug ARRY-438162 in treating rheumatoid arthritis in patients on stable doses of methotrexate, and to further evaluate the safety of the study drug. Approximately 200 patients from the US, Argentina, Brazil, Hungary, Peru, Poland and Romania will be enrolled in this study.

Health Assessment Questionnaire - Disability Index (HAQ-DI)	The HAQ-DI contains a list of items that assessed the degree of difficulty experienced in 8 categories of daily living activities (included in 20 questions) over the past week: Dressing and grooming, arising, eating, walking, hygiene, reach, grip and other activities. Each activity category consists of 2 or 3 items. For each question in the HAQ-DI, the level of difficulty was scored from 0 to 3 with 0 equal to "without difficulty," 1 equal to "with some difficulty," 2 equal to "with much difficulty" and 3 equal to "unable to do." Any activity that required assistance from another individual or required the use of an assistive device adjusted to a minimum score of 2 to represent a more limited functional status. The HAQ-DI score takes values between 0 and 3, with a higher score indicating greater disability.	Baseline

For each question in the HAQ-DI, the level of difficulty was scored from 0 to 3 with 0 equal to "without difficulty," 1 equal to "with some difficulty," 2 equal to "with much difficulty" and 3 equal to "unable to do." Any activity that required assistance from another individual or required the use of an assistive device adjusted to a minimum score of 2 to represent a more limited functional status. The HAQ-DI score takes values between 0 and 3, with a higher score indicating greater disability.	Week 4

Disease Activity Score (DAS) Using C-Reactive Protein (DAS28-4[CRP])	The DAS28-4(CRP) score is a measure of the subject's disease activity. DAS28-4(CRP) is based on the tender joint count (28 joints), swollen joint count (28 joints), patient's global assessment of disease activity and CRP. DAS28 provides a number on a scale (0 to 10) indicating current disease activity. A score above 5.1 means high disease activity and a score below 3.2 indicates low disease activity.	Baseline

SF-36 Health Questionnaire - Version 2 (SF-36v2) - Mental Health Component Score	The SF-36v2 (Acute version) is a 36-item generic health status measure that yields an 8-scale profile of functional health and well-being as well as psychometrically-based physical and mental health summary measures. The SF-36v2 consists of eight scaled scores, which are the weighted sums of the questions in their section. Each scale is directly transformed into a 0-100 scale. The lower the score the more disability, while the higher the score the less disability. Additionally, two summary scale scores can be calculated: the Physical Component Summary (PCS) and the Mental Component Summary (MCS). Summary statistics were calculated for each of the 8 scales, the 2 summary measures, and changes from baseline for each treatment group.	Week 12
