Ocrelizumab 200mgMethotrexateParticipants received two intravenous (IV) infusions of 200 mg ocrelizumab administered on Day 1 and Day 15 and placebo IV infliximab infusions administered on Day 1, Day 15, Week 6, and Week 14. In addition to the study medication, all patients were to receive methotrexate at a stable dose of 7.5-25 mg/week and folic acid or equivalent at a dose of 5 mg/week to minimize methotrexate toxicity.
Ocrelizumab 200mgMethylprednisoloneParticipants received two intravenous (IV) infusions of 200 mg ocrelizumab administered on Day 1 and Day 15 and placebo IV infliximab infusions administered on Day 1, Day 15, Week 6, and Week 14. In addition to the study medication, all patients were to receive methotrexate at a stable dose of 7.5-25 mg/week and folic acid or equivalent at a dose of 5 mg/week to minimize methotrexate toxicity.
