Name Time Method Percentage of Participants Who Achieved Disease Activity Score for 28 Different Joints With C-reactive Protein Value (DAS28{CRP}) Remission (DAS28 <2.6) at Month 12 Month 12 DAS28 is a modification of the original DAS and is based on a count of 28 swollen and tender joints and is used to evaluate a participant's response to treatment. DAS 28 CRP utilizing joint scores from the following 28 joints: elbows, shoulders, elbow, wrists, metacarpal- phalangeal I-V, proximal interphalangeal I-V and knees and is calculated using the following formula: DAS28 (CRP) = 0.56\*√(TJC28) +0.28\*√(SJC28)+0.014\*GH+0.36\*ln(CRP+1)+0.96. Where TJC - Tender joint Count, SJC= Swollen Joint Count, (GH=participant assessment of disease activity using a 100 millimeter \[mm\] visual analogue scale with 0 = best, 100 = worst) and CRP= C reactive Protein (in \[milligrams/liter\] mg/L). It ranges between 0.96 and 8.61. High score (worse outcome) and low scores (better outcome).

Percentage of Participants With American College of Rheumatology's (ACR) 20/50/70 Response Rates at All Assessment Time Points through study completion, once every three months DAS28(CRP) scores were categorized using EULAR response criteria. Response at a given time point was defined based on the combination of current DAS28 score and the improvement in the current DAS28 score relative to Baseline. The definition of no response, moderate response and good response was as follows: Current DAS28 \<=3.2 and DAS28 decrease from Baseline (\>1.2=good response), (\>0.6 to \<=1.2 = moderate response) and (\<=0.6 =no response). Current DAS28 \>3.2 to \<=5.1 and DAS28 decrease from Baseline value (\>1.2 =moderate response), (\>0.6 to \<=1.2 = moderate response) and (\<=0.6 =no response). Current DAS28 \>5.1 and DAS28 decrease from Baseline value (\>1.2=moderate response), (\>0.6 to \<=1.2 = no response) and (\<=0.6 =no response). If the post-Baseline DAS28(CRP) score was missing, then the corresponding EULAR category was set to missing.

Change From Baseline in Health Assessment Questionnaire-Disability Index (HAQ-DI) at All Assessment Time Points through study completion, once every three months HAQ-DI is 20-question instrument that assesses the degree of difficulty a person has in accomplishing tasks in eight functional areas;dressing and grooming, arising, eating, walking, hygiene, reach, grip, and common daily activities. Each functional area contains at least two questions. For each question, there is a four level response set that is scored from 0 (without any difficulty) to 3 (unable to do). If aids or devices or physical assistance are used for a specific functional area and the maximum response of this functional area is 0 or 1 the according value is increased to a score of 2. HAQ-DI is only calculated if there are at least 6 functional area scores available. The average of these non-missing functional area scores defines the continuous HAQ-DI score ranging from 0 to 3. Baseline was defined as the last available assessment prior to the start of study treatment. Change from Baseline was calculated by subtracting the post dose visit value from the Baseline value.
Participants' sharp score or modified total Sharp score(mTSS) score of wrist bone destruction at All Assessment Time Points through study completion, once every three months Sharp evaluation is mainly a method to evaluate the bone destruction of wrist in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. The 27 parts of the hand and wrist were used as scoring points, and the scores were added from the two aspects of erosion score and narrowing degree of joint cavity: 0 for no bone erosion, 5 for extensive bone erosion and loss, and 2-4 between the two; 0 points for no stenosis, 1 point for local stenosis, 2 points for diffuse stenosis with an area of 50%, 3 points for diffuse stenosis with an area of \> 50%, and 4 points for ankylosis.On this basis, van der heiide revised the mTSS to reduce the 27 scoring sites of the hand and wrist to 17 erosion evaluation sites and 18 joint cavity narrowing evaluation sites.
