The percentage of participants with treatment emergent AESIs (hypersensitivity) were reported.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Percentage of Participants Who Achieved American College of Rheumatology 70 (ACR70) Response at Week 2, 4, 8, 12, 24 and 52 Week 2, 4, 8, 12, 24 and 52 The ACR 70 Response is defined as greater than or equal to (\>=) 70 percent improvement in swollen joint count (66 joints) and tender joint count (68 joints) and \>=70 percent improvement in 3 of following 5 assessments: patient's assessment of pain using Visual Analog Scale (VAS ; 0-10 millimeter \[mm\], 0 mm=no pain and 10 mm=worst possible pain), patient's global assessment of disease activity by using VAS (the scale ranges from 0 mm to 100 mm, \[0 mm=no pain to 100 mm=worst possible pain\]), physician's global assessment of disease activity using VAS, participant's assessment of physical function measured by Health Assessment Questionnaire-Disability Index (HAQ-DI, defined as a 20-question instrument assessing 8 functional areas). The derived HAQ-DI ranges from 0, indicating no difficulty, to 3, indicating inability to perform a task in that area) and acute-phase marker (CRP).
Change From Baseline in Simplified Disease Activity Index (SDAI) Total Score at Week 2, 4, 8, 12, 24, and 52 Baseline, Week 2, 4, 8, 12, 24, and 52 SDAI is numerical sum of 5 outcome parameters: tender \& swollen joint count (based on 28-joint assessment), Patient's \& Physician's Global Assessment of Disease Activity (VAS) \& level of C-reactive protein (CRP)(milligram per deciliter (mg/dL), normal\<1 mg/dL). SDAI was calculated based on following formula: SDAI = 28 joint count for swelling (SJC28) + 28 joint count for tenderness (TJC28)+GH+PGA+CRP Where: -GH =general health component of DAS (i.e. Patient's Global Assessment of Disease Activity, assessed using scale of 1 to 100 where 100 is maximal activity; For analyses, GH was divided by 10 \& converted to 0.5 scale (0, 0.5, 1, 1.5).-PGA = Physician's Global Assessment of Disease Activity assessed using scale of 1 to 100 where 100 is maximal activity. For analyses, PGA will be divided by 10 \& converted to 0.5 scale (0, 0.5, 1, 1.5). where \[0-0.25\] = 0, \[0.25-0.75\] = 0.5, \[0.76-1.25\] = 1, etc. The total score range is 0-86 \& lower score indicates less disease activity.
Mean Change From Baseline (Week 4) in Injection Site Pain as Assessed by Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) at Week 6 and 8 Immediately, 15 minutes and 1 hour post-injection on Baseline (Week 4), Week 6 and 8 The participant's reported perception of pain was measured on a VAS where the slash drawn by the participant represents pain of increasing intensity. VAS score ranges from 0-10 millimeter \[mm\], where; 0 mm=no pain and 10 mm=worst possible pain. The first 2 injections was administered by qualified personnel. The next three doses of IMP (3-5) will be self-administered by the participant and injection site pain was assessed. Pain was recorded immediately after, 15 minutes after, and 1 hour after the injections received by the participants.

Percentage of Participants With Disease Activity Score Based on 28-joints Count- Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (DAS28-ESR) Low Disease Activity and Remission at Week 2, 4, 8, 12, 24, and 52 Week 2, 4, 8, 12, 24, and 52 Disease Activity Score calculated on 28 joints is composite score derived from 4 measures: number of swollen joints (out of 28), -number of tender joints (out of 28), -Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), -Patient's Global Assessment of Disease Activity on visual analog scale (VAS). Overall disease activity score DAS28 was derived using following formulas from DAS28: DAS28=0.56\*√(TJC28)+0.28\*√(SJC28) + 0.014\*GH+0.70\*ln(ESR). Where: -TJC28 = 28 joint count for tenderness, -SJC28 = 28 joint count for swelling, -ln(ESR) = natural logarithm of ESR, -GH = general health component of DAS (ie, Patient's Global Assessment of Disease Activity, assessed using scale of 1 to 100 where 100 is maximal activity); For analyses, GH was divided by 10 and converted to a 0.5 scale, i.e., 0, 0.5, 1, 1.5. DAS28-ESR of \>5.1 implies active disease, \<3.2 low disease activity, and \<2.6 remission.

The CDAI was calculated based on following formula: CDAI = 28 joint count for swelling (SJC28) + 28 joint count for tenderness (TJC28) + GH + PGA. Where, -GH = general health component of the DAS (i.e., Patient's Global Assessment of Disease Activity, assessed using a scale of 1 to 100 where 100 is maximal activity; for analyses, GH was divided by 10 and converted to a 0.5 scale, i.e., 0, 0.5, 1, 1.5 etc. where \[0-0.25\] = 0, \[0.25-0.75\] = 0.5, \[0.76-1.25\] = 1, etc.). -PGA = Physician's Global Assessment of Disease Activity assessed using a scale of 1 to 100 where 100 is maximal activity. For analyses, PGA was divided by 10 and converted to a 0.5 scale, ie, 0, 0.5, 1, 1.5 etc. where \[0-0.25\] = 0, \[0.25-0.75\] = 0.5, \[0.76-1.25\] = 1, etc. The CDAI ranges from 0 to 76. Lower score indicates less disease activity.

PGA was assessed on a 10 mm VAS ranging from 0 (very well) to 10 (very poor), where higher scores indicate worse health condition.
Percentage of Participants With Clinically Meaningful Differences in Vital Signs Up to Week 52 Vital signs including body temperature, respiratory rate, and heart rate (after 5-minute rest) were measured. Percentage of participants with clinically meaningful abnormalities in vital signs were reported. Clinical meaningful was determined by the investigator.
Euro-Quality of Life - 5 Dimension-5 Levels (EQ-5D-5L) Utility Index Score at Baseline, Week 12, 24 and 52 Baseline, Week 12, 24 and 52 EQ-5D-5L is a standardized, participant-rated questionnaire to assess health-related quality of life. The EQ-5D-5L includes 2 components: the EQ-5D-5L health state profile (descriptive system) and the EQ-5D-5L Visual Analog Scale. The EQ-5D-5L descriptive system provides a profile of the participant's health state 5 dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression. Each dimension has 5 response options (no problems, slight problems, moderate problems, severe problems and extreme problems) that reflect increasing levels of difficulty. The participant was asked to indicate his/her current health state by selecting the most appropriate level in each of the 5 dimensions. Responses to the 5 dimension scores were combined and converted into a single preference-weighted health utility index score 0 (0.0- worst health state) to 1 (1.0- better health state) representing the general health status of the individual based on the UK scoring algorithm.

Change From Baseline in Disease Activity Score Based on a 28 Joint Count- Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (DAS28-ESR) Score at Week 2, 4, 8, 12, 24 and 52 Baseline, Week 2, 4, 8, 12, 24 and 52 DAS calculated on 28 joints is composite score derived from 4 measures: number of swollen joints (out of 28), number of tender joints (out of 28), Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), Patient's Global Assessment of Disease Activity on visual analog scale (VAS). Overall disease activity score DAS28 was derived using following formulas from DAS28:DAS28=0.56\*√(TJC28)+0.28\*√(SJC28) + 0.014\*GH+0.70\*ln(ESR). Where: TJC28 = 28 joint count for tenderness, SJC28 = 28 joint count for swelling, ln(ESR) = natural log of ESR, GH = general health component of DAS (ie, Patient's Global Assessment of Disease Activity, assessed using scale of 1-100 where 100 is maximal activity); For analyses, GH divided by 10 \& converted to 0.5 scale, i.e, 0, 0.5, 1, 1.5. DAS28-ESR of \>5.1 implies active disease, \<3.2 low disease activity, \& \<2.6 remission. Change of 1.2(twice measurement error)=significant change of disease activity state. Overall score ranges from 0-10 where higher score means more severe disease.

For anti-ds DNA, positivity is defined as any participant with adsDNA \> 15 units per milliliter (U/mL), intermediate category is defined as value between 10 U/mL to 15 U/mL and negativity is defined as adsDNA \< 10 U/mL. Percentage of participants with anti-nuclear antibody (ANA) and anti double-stranded deoxyribonucleic acid (Anti-dsDNA) at baseline, week 24 and 52 were reported.
Health Assessment Questionnaire Disability Index (HAQ-DI) Total Score at Baseline, Weeks 12, 24 and 52 Baseline, Weeks 12, 24 and 52 The HAQ-DI is a participant-reported questionnaire that is commonly used in RA to measure disease associated disability (assessment of physical function). It consists of several questions referring to 8 domains: dressing/grooming, arising, eating, walking, hygiene, reach, grip, and activities. HAQ-DI scores range from 0 to 3. The disability section of the questionnaire scores the participant's self-perception on the degree of difficulty (0 = without any difficulty, 1 = with some difficulty, 2 = with much difficulty, and 3 = unable to do).
Short-Form Health Survey- 36 Items (SF-36) at Baseline, Week 12, 24 and 52 Baseline, Week 12, 24 and 52 The Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) is a validated 36-item, patient-reported indication of overall health status not specific to any age, disease or Treatment group. The SF-36 questionnaire contains 36 questions pertaining to eight subscales of health status. These eight subscales were summarized as relating to either physical health or mental health. Physical component summary (PCS) is based primarily on physical functioning, role-physical, bodily pain, and general health scales and mental component summary (MCS) encompasses vitality, social functioning, role-emotional, and mental health scales. Score from mental health, role emotional, social functioning, and vitality domains were averaged to calculate MCS. Total score range for MCS was 0-100 (100=highest level of mental functioning). Score from physical function, role physical, bodily pain, and general health domains were averaged to calculate PCS. Total score range for PCS was 0-100 (100=highest level of physical functioning).
Euro-Quality of Life - 5 Dimension-5 Levels (EQ-5D-5L) Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) Score at Baseline, Week 12, 24 and 52 Baseline, Week 12, 24 and 52 EQ-5D-5L: Standardized, participant-rated questionnaire to assess health-related quality of life. EQ-5D-5L includes 2 components: EQ-5D-5L health state profile (descriptive system) and EQ-5D-5L Visual Analog Scale. EQ-5D-5L descriptive system provides a profile of participant's health state 5 dimensions:
mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression. Each dimension has 5 response options (no problems, slight problems, moderate problems, severe problems and extreme problems) that reflect increasing levels of difficulty. Responses to 5 dimension scores were combined and converted into single preference-weighted health utility index score 0 (worst health state) to 1 (better health state). EQ-VAS: Self-rated health status using a vertical VAS. EQ-VAS records participant's perceptions of their own current overall health in range from 0 (worst imaginable health) to 100 (best imaginable health).
