入选标准
- •In Japan, if a participant is less than (<) 20 years, the written informed consent from the participant's parent or guardian will be required in addition to the participant's written consent.
- •Confirmed diagnosis of RA according to 2010 ACR/EULAR RA classification criteria of at least 6 months duration prior to Screening
- •Persistently active moderate to severe RA at both Screening and Randomization (if significant surgical treatment of a joint has been performed, that joint cannot be counted for entry or enrollment purposes), as defined by: >= 6 swollen joints (of 66 assessed) and >= 6 tender joints (of 68 assessed).
- •An hsCRP >= 5.0 milligram/liter (mg/L) at Screening
- •Treatment for >= 16 weeks with 7.5 to 25 mg/week Methotrexate (MTX) at a stable dose and route of administration (oral or parenteral) for at least 8 weeks prior to dosing with the Investigational Medicinal Product (IMP) and maintained throughout the trial
- •For participants entering the trial on MTX doses < 15 mg/week (< 10 mg/week in Japan), there must be clear documentation in the medical record that higher doses of MTX were not tolerated or that the dose of MTX is the highest acceptable dose based on local clinical practice guidelines.
- •For MRI Sub-study participants, participants must have palpable synovitis of the wrist and/or >= 1 of metacarpophalangeal joints 1 to 5, defined as loss of bony contours with palpable joint effusion and/or swelling, in the MRI-designated hand (that is., the hand being used in MRI assessments).
排除标准
- •ACR functional class IV as defined by the ACR classification of functional status or wheelchair/bedbound
- •Use of oral corticosteroids greater than (>) 10 mg daily prednisone equivalent, or change in dose of corticosteroids within 2 weeks prior to Screening or during Screening

- •Auranofin (Ridaura), minocycline, penicillamine, sulfasalazine, cyclosporine, mycophenolate (mycophenolate sodium not approved in Japan), tacrolimus, azathioprine: must have been discontinued for 4 weeks prior to dosing with the IMP
- •Leflunomide (Arava) must have been discontinued 12 weeks prior to dosing with the IMP if no elimination procedure is followed. Alternately, it should have been discontinued with the following elimination procedure at least 4 weeks prior to dosing with the IMP:
- •Cholestyramine at a dosage of 8 gram 3 times a day for at least 24 hours, or activated charcoal at a dosage of 50 gram 4 times a day for at least 24 hours.
- •Injectable Gold (aurothioglucose* or aurothiomalate): must have been discontinued for 8 weeks prior to dosing with the IMP (*not approved in Japan)
- •Anti-malarials (hydroxychloroquine, chloroquine*) will be allowed in this trial. Participants may be taking oral hydroxychloroquine (=< 400 mg/day) or chloroquine (=< 250 mg/day), doses must have been stable for at least 12 weeks prior to dosing with the IMP, and will need to be continued at that stable dose for the duration of the trial. If discontinued prior to this trial, they must have been discontinued for 4 weeks prior to dosing with the IMP (*not approved in Japan).
- •For MRI Substudy:
- •Inability to comply with MRI scanning, including contraindications to MRI such as known allergy to gadolinium contrast media, claustrophobia (if the site does not have ability to scan extremities only), presence of a pacemaker, cochlear implants, ferromagnetic devices or clips, intracranial vascular clips, insulin pumps, and nerve stimulators.
- •More than 25% of applicable joints of the target hand and wrist having had prior surgery or showing maximum Genant-modified Sharp erosion (3.0) or joint-space narrowing (4.0) scores, based on single posteroanterior radiographs of target hand and wrist read centrally.

时间窗: Week 12
ACR20 response: a participant has at least 20% 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 measured by Health Assessment Questionnaire-Disability Index (HAQ-DI); and 5) acute phase reactant as measured by high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP). Percentage of participants with ACR20 response using hsCRP = Number of participants with ACR20 response using hsCRP divided by total modified intent-to-treat (mITT) participants \* 100.
