Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentage of Patients Who Had at Least 1 Adverse Event in Any CategoryEntry in extension to end of study (variable duration; maximum 109 weeks)

AE = adverse event, bid = twice daily, IP = investigational product, qd = once daily, SAE = serious adverse event

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Mean DAS28-CRP ScoreWeeks 0, 12, 24, 36 and 52

DAS28-CRP: Disease Activity Score based on a count of swollen and tender joints (out of 28 joints), blood test measures of inflammation (CRP) and the patient's own assessment. Scores can take any positive value with a lower value indicating a better clinical condition. Number of participants are those with data at entry to this study (Week 0). As no imputation was applied, the numbers at subsequent visits are lower. bid = twice daily, CRP = C-reactive protein, qd = once daily

Mean mTSS ScoreWeeks 0 and 52

mTSS: modified total sharp score, a measure of structural progression based upon X-rays. Hand and foot joints are scored for erosions and joint space narrowing and the results summed to give a value between 0 and 488. A higher value represents more serious progression of the disease. Number of participants are those with data at entry to this study (Week 0). As no imputation was applied, the numbers at subsequent visits are lower. bid = twice daily, N/A = not applicable, qd = once daily

Mean HAQ-DI ScoreWeeks 0, 12, 24, 36 and 52

HAQ-DI: Health Assessment Questionnaire - Disability Index, a measure of physical function. The HAQ-DI score is then calculated by summing the category scores from 8 sub-categories (ie, scores for patient ability in dressing and grooming, rising, eating, walking, hygiene, reach, grip and common daily activities) and dividing by the number of categories completed. The HAQ-DI score takes values between 0 and 3, with a higher score indicating greater disability. Number of participants are those with data at entry to this study (Week 0). As no imputation was applied, the numbers at subsequent visits are lower. bid = twice daily, qd = once daily
