  • •7.Has taken methotrexate continuously for at least 4 months prior to the Screening visit and has taken a stable weekly dose of methotrexate with supplemental folic or folinic acid for at least 6 weeks prior to the Baseline visit.
  • •Methotrexate doses less than 15 mg/week are allowed only in the presence of documented intolerance or toxicity from higher doses
  • •Doses higher than 25 mg/week are not permitted under any circumstances

  • •2.Subjects who are classified Class IV of the ACR 1991 Revised Criteria for Global Functional Status in RA (ie, are limited in their ability to perform usual self-care, vocational, and avocational activities).
  • •3.Pregnant females; breastfeeding females; sexually active males and females of childbearing potential who are unwilling or unable to use a highly effective method of contraception as outlined in this protocol for the duration of the study and for at least 28 days after last dose of investigational product.
  • •4.Subjects with infections or history of infections:
  • •a.Any infection requiring treatment within 2 weeks prior to the Baseline visit.
  • •b.Any infection requiring hospitalization, parenteral antimicrobial therapy, or as otherwise judged clinically significant by the investigator, within the past 6 months.

  • •f.Subjects will be screened for hepatitis B virus infection. Subjects with hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) negative testing but who test positive for hepatitis B core antibody (HBcAb) must have further testing for hepatitis B surface antibody (HBsAb). If HBsAb is negative, the subject will be excluded from the study.
  • •g.Subjects will be screened for hepatitis C virus antibodies (HCV Ab). Subjects with positive HCV Ab tests will be reflex tested for hepatitis C virus ribonucleic acid (HCV RNA). Only subjects with negative HCV Ab or HCV RNA will be allowed to enroll in the study.
