- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Change From Baseline in Health Assessment Questionnaire - Disability Index (HAQ-DI) Score From Baseline to Month 3 The HAQ-DI assesses the difficulty a participant has had in the past week in 8 domains of daily living activities: dressing and grooming, arising, eating, walking, hygiene, reach, grip, and other activities. Each activity category consists of 2-3 items. For each question, level of difficulty is scored from 0 to 3 with 0=no difficulty, 1=some difficulty, 2=much difficulty, and 3=unable to do. The score for each domain is the maximum (worst) score from the items/questions within the domain. Higher score indicates greater disability.
Percentage of Participants Meeting American College of Rheumatology Response Criteria ≥20% (ACR20): Month 3 At end of Month 3 ACR20 was calculated as a ≥20% improvement from baseline in tender/painful and swollen joint counts and ≥20% improvement from baseline in 3 of the 5 remaining ACR core set measures: patient's global assessment of arthritis, physician's global assessment of arthritis, patient's assessment of arthritis pain, health assessment questionnaire - disability index (HAQ-DI), and C-reactive protein (CRP).
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Percentage of Participants Meeting American College of Rheumatology Response Criteria ≥20% (ACR20) at Week 2 and Months 1, 2, 4, 6, 9, and 12 At Week 2 and Months 1, 2, 4, 6, 9, and 12 ACR20 was calculated as a ≥20% improvement from baseline in tender/painful and swollen joint counts and ≥20% improvement from baseline in 3 of the 5 remaining ACR core set measures: patient's global assessment of arthritis, physician's global assessment of arthritis, patient's assessment of arthritis pain, HAQ-DI, and CRP.
Change From Baseline in the Van Der Heijdel Modified Total Sharp Score (mTSS) for Psoriatic Arthritis From Baseline to Month 12 Assessment of joint damage includes a joint erosion score (range 0-320) and a joint space narrowing (JSN) score (range 0-208). The mTSS is the sum of the erosion and JSN scores (range 0-528). A higher score indicates more severe disease status. If a component score is missing, the mTSS will be missing.
Percentage of Participants With Progressed Modified Total Sharp Score (mTSS) at Month 12 At Month 12 Assessment of joint damage includes a joint erosion score (range 0-320) and a JSN score (range 0-208). The mTSS is the sum of the erosion and JSN scores (range 0-528). A higher score indicates more severe disease status. If a component score is missing, the mTSS will be missing. Progressor is defined as an increase in mTSS \>0.5 from baseline.

The responses record 3 levels of severity (no problems \[1\], some or moderate problems \[2\], or extreme problems \[3\]) within a particular EQ-5D dimension. Standard vertical 0 to 100 mm visual analogue scale (similar to a thermometer) for recording an individual's rating for their current health-related quality of life state, with a higher value representing better health status.
Change From Baseline in Health Assessment Questionnaire - Disability Index (HAQ-DI) Score From Baseline to Week 2 and Months 1, 2, 4, 6, 9, and 12 The HAQ-DI assesses the difficulty a participant has had in the past week in 8 domains of daily living activities: dressing and grooming, arising, eating, walking, hygiene, reach, grip, and other activities. Each activity category consists of 2-3 items. For each question, level of difficulty is scored from 0 to 3 with 0=no difficulty, 1=some difficulty, 2=much difficulty, and 3=unable to do. The score for each domain is the maximum (worst) score from the items/questions within the domain. Higher score indicates greater disability.
Change From Baseline in American College of Rheumatology Response Criteria Components Score: Patient's Global Assessment of Arthritis From Baseline to end of Month 3 Participant answered the following question, "Considering all the ways your arthritis affects you, how are you feeling today?" The participant's response was recorded using a 100 mm VAS by placing a mark on the scale between 0 (very well) and 100 (very poorly).
Change From Baseline in American College of Rheumatology Response Criteria Components Score: Physician's Global Assessment of Arthritis From Baseline to end of Month 3 The blinded investigator or qualified assessor assessed how the participant's overall arthritis appeared at the time of the visit. This was an evaluation based on the participant's disease signs, functional capacity and physical examination, and was independent of the Patient's Global Assessment of Arthritis. The investigator's response was recorded using a 100 mm VAS by placing a mark on the scale between 0 (very good) and 100 (very poor).
Change From Baseline in American College of Rheumatology Response Criteria Components Score: Swollen Joint Count From Baseline to end of Month 3 Swollen joint counts are considered the most specific quantitative clinical measure used to assess the status of participants with inflammatory types of arthritis.

Change From Baseline in Physician's Global Assessment of Psoriasis (PGA-PsO) Response From Baseline to Months 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 The PGA-PsO is scored on a 5-point scale, reflecting a global consideration of the erythema, induration, and scaling across all psoriatic lesions. Average erythema, induration, and scaling are rated separately over the whole body according to a 5-point severity scale, scored as 0=none; 1, 2, 3, or 4=most severe. The severity rating scores are summed and the average taken; the total average is rounded to the nearest whole number score to determine a PGA-PsO score on a scale of 0 to 4 (0=clear, 1=almost clear, 2=mild, 3=moderate, 4=severe).
Percentage of Participants With Psoriasis Area and Severity Index 75 (PASI75) Response at Months 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 At Months 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 PASI determines psoriasis severity based on lesion severity \& percentage body surface area (BSA) affected. Lesion severity is assessed for erythema, induration, \& scaling, evaluated separately for head \& neck, upper limbs, trunk, \& lower limbs \& rated for each body area according to a 5 point scale: 0=no involvement; 1=slight; 2=moderate; 3=marked; 4=very marked. BSA involvement is the extent (%) of body area affected by psoriasis \& is assigned a score: 0=no involvement; 1=0-9%; 2=10-29%; 3=30-49%; 4=50-69%; 5=70-89%; 6=90-100%. In each area, sum of severity rating scores is multiplied by the score representing the percentage of area involved by psoriasis, multiplied by a weighting factor (head 0.1; upper limbs 0.2; trunk 0.3; lower limbs 0.4). The sum of numbers obtained for the 4 body areas is the PASI score \& can vary in increments of 0.1 \& range from 0.0 to 72.0, higher scores represent greater severity of psoriasis. PASI75 is defined as a 75% reduction from baseline in PASI.
