Only data available from source documentation will be collected. The participation in this study will not impact on the standard of care of the participant or any benefits to which they are otherwise entitled. All aspects of treatment decisions and clinical management of participants will be in accordance with clinical practice and at the discretion of the health care provider. Participants' safety will be monitored throughout the study.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of Participants With Infusion ReactionsUp to end of study (2 years) or early withdrawal

The count of infusion reactions will be reported.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of Participants With use of Pre-infusion MedicationsBaseline up to end of study (2 years) or early withdrawal

Participants with administration of Pre-infusion medications or combination of Pre-infusion medications will be reported. The list of pre-treatments includes: acetaminophen, anti-histamines, steroids (Hydrocortisone, Prednisone), acetaminophen alone, anti-histamines alone, steroids alone, steroids + anti-histamines, steroids + acetaminophen, anti-histamines + acetaminophen, steroids + anti-histamines + acetaminophen.

Number of Participants With use of Concomitant Medications at Time of InfusionBaseline up to end of study (2 years) or early withdrawal

Participants with type of concomitant medications used at time of infusion will be reported. The groups of concomitant medication of interest are: any immunosuppressant (IS), methotrexate and corticosteroids.

Number of Participants With Subsequent Reactions After the First Infusion ReactionBaseline up to end of study (2 years) or early withdrawal

For each participant who has experienced at least 1 infusion reaction after enrolment, occurrence of infusion reaction at subsequent infusions after the first infusion reaction will be assessed.

Number of Participants With Infusion Reaction TreatmentsBaseline up to end of study (2 years) or early withdrawal

For each infusion administration with infusion reactions, type of medications was used to treat the reaction will be reported. The list of medications includes anti-histamines, steroids, and epinephrine.

Change From Baseline in Rheumatoid Arthritis Impact of Disease (RAID) ScoreBaseline up to end of study (2 years) or early withdrawal

The RAID is self-administered questionnaire which includes seven domains (pain, function, fatigue, physical and psychological wellbeing, sleep disturbance and coping). Each domain is evaluated using a single question answered by a 0 to 10 numerical rating scale. Each domain also has a specific weight assigned by a patient survey. The RAID score is a continuous variable ranging from 0 (best) to 10 (worst).

Percentage of Participants With Relative Change of at Least 50 Percent (%) and a Maximum Score of 2 in RAID ScoreBaseline up to end of study (2 years) or early withdrawal

The RAID is self-administered questionnaire which includes seven domains (pain, function, fatigue, physical and psychological wellbeing, sleep disturbance and coping). Each domain is evaluated using a single question answered by a 0 to 10 numerical rating scale. Each domain also has a specific weight assigned by a patient survey. The RAID score is a continuous variable ranging from 0 (best) to 10 (worst).

Percentage of Participants With Absolute Change of at Least 3 Points in RAID ScoreBaseline up to end of study (2 years) or early withdrawal

The RAID is self-administered questionnaire which includes seven domains (pain, function, fatigue, physical and psychological wellbeing, sleep disturbance and coping). Each domain is evaluated using a single question answered by a 0 to 10 numerical rating scale. Each domain also has a specific weight assigned by a patient survey. The RAID score is a continuous variable ranging from 0 (best) to 10 (worst).
