Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change in DAS28-CRP After 12 Weeks of TreatmentWeek 0, Week 12

DAS28-CRP=0.56×sqrt(tender joints \[count:1-28\])+0.28×sqrt(swollen joints \[count:1-28\])+0.36×Ln(CRP level+1)+0.014×(patient's disease assessment on 0-100 mm scale \[100=most severe\])+0.96. Range: 0.96 to no upper limit. Higher score=more severe disease. Mean change in DAS-CRP score after 12 Weeks of treatment.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change in DAS28-CRP After 6 Weeks of Treatment.Week 0, Week 6

DAS28-CRP=0.56×sqrt(tender joints \[count:1-28\])+0.28×sqrt(swollen joints \[count:1-28\])+0.36×Ln(CRP level+1)+0.014×(patient's disease assessment on 0-100 mm scale \[100=most severe\])+0.96. Range: 0.96 to no upper limit. Higher score=more severe disease. Mean change in DAS-CRP score after 6 Weeks of treatment.

Change in DAS28-CRP After 24 Weeks of Treatment.Week 0, Week 24

DAS28-CRP=0.56×sqrt(tender joints \[count:1-28\])+0.28×sqrt(swollen joints \[count:1-28\])+0.36×Ln(CRP level+1)+0.014×(patient's disease assessment on 0-100 mm scale \[100=most severe\])+0.96. Range: 0.96 to no upper limit. Higher score=more severe disease. Mean change in DAS-CRP score after 24 Weeks of treatment.
