¿Qué mide el estudio?

Medidas de resultado primarias

Medida de resultado
Medida Descripción
Periodo de tiempo
Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)
Periodo de tiempo: Baseline up to Week 64
An AE was defined as any new untoward medical occurrences/worsening of pre-existing medical condition without regard to possibility of causal relationship. An SAE was defined as an AE that resulted in any of the following outcomes: death; life threatening; persistent/significant disability/incapacity; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; congenital anomaly/birth defect.
Baseline up to Week 64
Percentage of Participants With Immunoglobulin G (IgG) Level Less Than 3 Gram Per Liter (g/L)
Periodo de tiempo: Week 64
Week 64
Percent Change From Baseline in Vital Signs and Routine Safety Lab Parameters at Week 32
Periodo de tiempo: Baseline, Week 32
Vital signs assessed included blood pressure (systolic and diastolic), pulse and body temperature. Routine safety lab parameters evaluated included red blood cell (RBC), hemoglobin, hematocrit, platelets, mean cellular hemoglobin (MCH), MCH concentration, MCH volume, white blood cell (WBC), lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils, basophils, neutrophils, gamma glutamyl transferase (GGT), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), albumin, alkaline phosphatase (AP), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), bilirubin, calcium, creatinine, glucose, potassium, total protein, sodium, uric acid, and blood urea nitrogen. Percent change from baseline was calculated as ([Week 32 value minus baseline value] multiplied by 100) divided by baseline value.
Baseline, Week 32
Percent Change From Baseline in Anti-tetanus and Anti-diphteria Immunization Titer at Week 32
Periodo de tiempo: Baseline, Week 32
Percent change from baseline was calculated as ([Week 32 value minus baseline value] multiplied by 100) divided by baseline value.
Baseline, Week 32
Percent Change From Baseline in Anti-pneumococcus Titer at Week 32
Periodo de tiempo: Baseline, Week 32
Percent change from baseline was calculated as ([Week 32 value minus baseline value] multiplied by 100) divided by baseline value.
Baseline, Week 32

Medidas de resultado secundarias

Medida de resultado
Medida Descripción
Periodo de tiempo
Percentage of Participants Achieving American College of Rheumatology 20 Response Based on C-reactive Protein (ACR20-CRP), ACR50-CRP and ACR70-CRP at Week 32
Periodo de tiempo: Week 32
ACR20-CRP response: greater than or equal to (>=) 20 percent (%) improvement in both tender joint counts (based on a total of 68 joints) and swollen joint counts (based on a total of 66 joints) together with >=20% improvement in at least 3 of the following: 1) participant's assessment of pain; 2) participant's global assessment of disease activity; 3) physician's global assessment of disease activity; 4) participant's assessment of physical function; and 5) acute-phase marker (CRP). ACR50-CRP and ACR70-CRP response are defined as >=50% and >=70% improvement in both tender joint counts (based on a total of 68 joints) and swollen joint counts (based on a total of 66 joints) respectively together with >=50% and >=70% improvement in at least 3 of the following respectively: 1) participant's assessment of pain; 2) participant's global assessment of disease activity; 3) physician's global assessment of disease activity; 4) participant's assessment of physical function; and 5) CRP.
Week 32
Change From Baseline in Disease Activity Score in 28 Joints (DAS28) Based on CRP (DAS28-CRP) at Week 32
Periodo de tiempo: Baseline, Week 32
DAS28-CRP incorporates non-graded joint counts for tenderness and swelling based on a total of 28 joints, CRP as a marker of inflammation, and a general health assessment using a 100 mm visual analog scale (the participant's global assessment of disease activity). DAS28 score ranges between 0 and 10 representing current disease activity. A value above 5.1 represents high disease activity, a value below 3.2 represents low disease activity, and a value below 2.6 represents remission.
Baseline, Week 32
Median Percentage Change From Baseline in Levels of Total, Mature and Memory B Cells
Periodo de tiempo: Baseline, Week 3, 7, 12, 16, 26 and 32
Flow cytometric analysis of lymphocyte populations using four-color fluorescence-activated cell sorting was performed for the analysis of total, mature and memory B cell levels.
Baseline, Week 3, 7, 12, 16, 26 and 32
