204 and, who in the opinion of the investigator, will continue to benefit
from treatment in the extension study.
2. Females of childbearing potential must continue using highly effective
methods of birth control during the study and for at least 12 weeks after
the last dose of study medication (or longer if required by local
regulations).

The principle exclusion criteria are:
1-Subjects who had been prematurely withdrawn from one of the 2 core
studies
(GLPG0634-CL-203 or GLPG0634-CL-204), for any reason, including

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Primary end point(s): Primary Endpoint:<br>Safety and tolerability of long-term dosing of GLPG0634 200 mg q.d. and 100 mg b.i.d.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 60 months;Main Objective: The primary objective is to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of GLPG0634 for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA).;Secondary Objective: The secondary objectives are to evaluate the long-term efficacy of GLPG0634 and to evaluate the long-term effects of GLPG0634 administration on subject’s disability, fatigue, and quality of life.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: every visit; and at the end of 96 months.;Secondary end point(s): Secondary Endpoints:<br>Evolution in the percentage of subjects achieving American College of Rheumatology (ACR)20, ACR50, ACR70, and ACR-N responses; European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR) responses; ACR/EULAR remission, clinical disease activity index (CDAI), simplified disease activity index (SDAI), and the disease-activity score based on 28 joints (DAS28 c-reactive protein [CRP]) every 12 weeks or until the Final Visit or the Early Discontinuation Visit (EDV). Change from Baseline in the Quality of Life (functional assessment of chronic illness therapy [FACIT] fatigue scale and 36-item short form health survey [SF-36] scores) every 48 weeks or until the Final Visit or the EDV.
