What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Time Frame

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Response to treatment based on the American College of Rheumatology 20% response criteria (ACR20) at Weeks 2, 4, 8, and 12		At weeks 2, 4, 8 and 12
Change from Baseline in DAS28(CRP) at Weeks 2, 4, and 8		Baseline and up to week 8
Response to treatment based on the ACR50 criteria at Weeks 2, 4, 8, and 12		At weeks 2, 4, 8 and 12
Response to treatment based on the ACR70 criteria at Weeks 2, 4, 8, and 12		At weeks 2, 4, 8 and 12

Change from Baseline in the Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Fatigue Scale (FACIT-F) at Weeks 4 and 12		Baseline and weeks 4, 12
Change from Baseline in the duration of morning stiffness (in minutes and in severity as measured with a visual analog scale [VAS]) at Weeks 2, 4, 8, and 12	Morning stiffness severity was determined by the Patient's Assessment of Severity and Duration of Morning Stiffness questionnaire. Participants rated the severity of morning stiffness on awakening over the past 7 days on a scale from 0 (No morning stiffness) to 10 (Worst possible morning stiffness).	Baseline and up to week 12
Change from Baseline in the Short Form-36 item Health Survey (SF-36) at Weeks 4 and 12	The Short Form-36 item Health Survey (SF-36) consists of eight scaled scores; physical functioning, role physical, bodily pain, general health, vitality, social functioning, role emotional, and mental health. which are the weighted sums of the questions in their section. Scores for each domain range from 0 to 100, with a higher score defining a more favorable health state.	Baseline and weeks 4, 12
Change from Baseline in the Simplified Disease Activity Index (SDAI) at Weeks 2, 4, 8, and 12		Baseline and up to week 12
Change from Baseline in the Clinical Disease Activity Index (CDAI) at Weeks 2, 4, 8, and 12		Baseline and up to week 12
Response to treatment based on the achievement of Low Disease Activity (LDA) status based on each of the following definitions at Weeks 2, 4, 8,and 12: DAS28(CRP) ≤ 3.2, SDAI ≤ 11.0, CDAI ≤ 10.0 at Weeks 2, 4, 8, and 12		At weeks 2, 4, 8 and 12
Response to treatment based on the achievement of remission based on each of the following definitions at Weeks 2, 4, 8, and 12: DAS28(CRP) < 2.6, Boolean parameters, SDAI ≤ 3.3, CDAI ≤ 2.8 at Weeks 2, 4, 8, and 12		At weeks 2, 4, 8 and 12
Improvement of physical ability defined as change from Baseline in HAQ-DI ≥ 0.22 at Weeks 2, 4, 8, and 12		Baseline and up to week 12
