Percentage of Participants Who Changed From Monotherapy to Combination Therapy
Time Frame: Baseline to Week 296
|
Participants who entered this study from study WA17824 on tocilizumab monotherapy, who did not achieve a 50% reduction in tender and swollen joint counts from Baseline of study WA17824, could add methotrexate or another allowable disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drug, according to the investigator's practice and as tolerated by the patient, at any time during this study.
|
Baseline to Week 296
|
Percentage of Participants With an Improvement of at Least 20%, 50%, 70%, or 90% in the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) Score (ACR20/50/70/90) From Baseline at Weeks 24, 48, 108, 156, 204, and 264
Time Frame: Baseline to Week 264
|
Improvement must be seen in tender (68 assessed joints) and swollen joint counts (66 assessed joints) and in at least 3 of the following 5 parameters: Separate patient and physician assessments of patient disease activity in the previous 24 hours on a visual analog scale (VAS, the left end of the scale "no disease activity" [symptom-free and no arthritis symptoms], right end of the scale "maximum disease activity"); patient assessment of pain in the previous 24 hours on a VAS (left end of the scale "no pain", right end of the scale "unbearable pain"); Health Assessment Questionnaire-Disability Index (20 questions, 8 components: dressing/grooming, arising, eating, walking, hygiene, reach, grip, and activities, 0=without difficulty to 3=unable to do); and erythrocyte sedimentation rate.
|
Baseline to Week 264
|
Percentage of Participants Who Achieved a Major Clinical Response at Weeks 48, 96, 144, 192, and 264
Time Frame: Baseline to Week 264
|
A major clinical response was defined as maintenance of an improvement of at least 70% in the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) score (ACR70) for at least 24 weeks.
Improvement must be seen in tender (68 assessed joints) and swollen joint counts (66 assessed joints) and in at least 3 of the following 5 parameters: Separate patient and physician assessments of patient disease activity in the previous 24 hours on a visual analog scale (VAS, the left end of the scale "no disease activity" [symptom-free and no arthritis symptoms], right end of the scale "maximum disease activity"); patient assessment of pain in the previous 24 hours on a VAS (left end of the scale "no pain", right end of the scale "unbearable pain"); Health Assessment Questionnaire-Disability Index (20 questions, 8 components: dressing/grooming, arising, eating, walking, hygiene, reach, grip, and activities, 0=without difficulty to 3=unable to do); and erythrocyte sedimentation rate.

Disease Activity and Pain at Baseline and Weeks 24, 48, 108, 156, 204, and 264
Time Frame: Baseline to Week 264
|
Participant's made a global assessment of their current disease activity on a 100 mm horizontal visual analogue scale (VAS).
The left end of the scale indicated "no disease activity" (symptom-free and no arthritis symptoms, score = 0) and the right end indicated "maximum disease activity" (maximum arthritis disease activity, score = 100).
The participant's treating physician made a global assessment of the participant's current disease activity on a 100 mm horizontal VAS.
The left end of the scale indicated "no disease activity" (symptom-free and no arthritis symptoms, score = 0) and the right end indicated "maximum disease activity" (maximum arthritis disease activity, score = 100).
Participant's made an assessment of their current level of pain on a 100 mm horizontal VAS.
The left end of the scale indicated "no pain" (score = 0) and the right end of the scale indicated "unbearable pain" (score = 100).

Health Assessment Questionnaire-Disability Index Score at Baseline and Weeks 24, 48, 108, 156, 204, and 264
Time Frame: Baseline to Week 264
|
The Health Assessment Questionnaire-Disability Index (HAQ-DI), as a measure of functional ability, consists of 30 questions in 8 domains: Dressing/grooming, arising, eating, walking, hygiene, reach, grip, and activities.
There are 4 possible responses to each question (0=without any difficulty, 1=with some difficulty, 2=with much difficulty, 3=unable to do).
A domain score is the highest score in that domain.
To calculate the overall score, the patient must have a domain score in at least 6 of the 8 domains.
The HAQ-DI score is the sum of the domain scores divided by the number of domains that have a non-missing score and ranges from 0 (best) to 3 (worst).
A higher score indicates less ability.

Change in the Disease Activity Score 28 (DAS-28) From Baseline to Weeks 24, 48, 96, and 264
Time Frame: Baseline to Week 264
|
The DAS28 is a combined index for measuring disease activity in rheumatic arthritis (RA) and includes swollen and tender joint counts, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), and general health (GH) status.
The index is calculated with the following formula: DAS28 = (0.56 × √(TJC28)) + (0.28 × √(SJC28)) + (0.7 × log(ESR)) + (0.014 × GH), where TJC28 = tender joint count and SJC28 = swollen joint count, each on 28 joints.
GH = a patient's global assessment of disease activity in the previous 24 hours on a 100 mm visual analog scale (left end = no disease activity [symptom-free and no arthritis symptoms], right end = maximum disease activity [maximum arthritis disease activity]).
When ESR equaled 0 mm/hr, it was set to 1 mm/hr.
The DAS28 scale ranges from 0 to 10, where higher scores represent higher disease activity.
A negative change score indicates improvement.

Percentage of Participants Who Were Disease Activity Score 28 (DAS-28) Responders at Weeks 24, 48, 108, 156, 204, and 264
Time Frame: Baseline to Week 264
|
A DAS-28 responder was defined as someone who met the European League Against Rheumatism [EULAR] criteria of a good or moderate response.
A change of the DAS-28 score from Baseline was used to determine EULAR responses of good, moderate, or no response.
For a post-baseline score ≤ 3.2, a change from baseline of < -1.2 was a good response, < -0.6 to ≥ -1.2 was a moderate response, and ≥ -0.6 was no response.
For a post-baseline score > 3.2 to ≤ 5.1, a change from baseline of < -0.6 was a moderate response and ≥ -0.6 was no response.
For a post-baseline score > 5.1, a change from baseline < -1.2 was a moderate response and ≥ -1.2 was no response.
A good response could not be achieved for post-baseline scores > 3.2.

Percentage of Participants With a Clinically Relevant Improvement in Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy - Fatigue (FACIT-F) Score at Weeks 24, 36, 48, 108, 156, 204, and 264
Time Frame: Baseline to Week 264
|
The FACIT-F is a 13-item participant self-report questionnaire that assesses fatigue over the previous 7 days by scoring each item on a 5-point scale (0=Not at all, 1=A little bit, 2=Somewhat, 3=Quite a bit, 4=Very much).
An overall FACIT-F score was obtained by summing the scores of all 13 items.
The overall score ranged from 0 to 52.
A lower score indicates less fatigue.
A clinically relevant improvement in the FACIT-F score was defined as a ≥ 5-point increase from Baseline.

Percentage of Participants With a Clinically Relevant Improvement in the Physical and Mental Component Scores of the Short Form 36 (SF-36) Health Survey at Weeks 24, 48, 108, 156, 204, and 264
Time Frame: Baseline to Week 264
|
The SF-36 Health Survey uses participant-reported symptoms on 8 subscales to assess health-related quality of life (HRQoL).
The Physical Component Summary (PCS) score summarizes the subscales Physical Functioning, Role-Physical, Bodily Pain, and General Health.
The Mental Component Summary (MCS) score summarizes the subscales Vitality, Social Functioning, Role-Emotional, and Mental Health.
Each score was scaled from 0 to 100 with a higher score indicating better HRQoL.
A clinically relevant improvement in the Physical and Mental Component Scores of the SF-36 was defined as a ≥ 5-point increase from Baseline.
