简要总结
The purpose of this study is to determine whether Apremilast is safe and effective in the treatment of patients with rheumatoid arthritis, specifically in improving signs and symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis (tender and swollen joints, pain, physical function and structure) in treated patients who have had an inadequate response to Methotrexate.

- •Receiving medication(s) or will require medication(s) during the study that impact on vascular flow (eg, nitrates, calcium channel blockers, ergot containing drugs) on the day of the Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI test and in the investigator's judgement the subject cannot hold back from taking these medications on the day of the Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) prior to the Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) test. The subject can continue taking the medication(s) at any time after the Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) test is completed, as clinically indicated and scheduled. Exclusions of antihypertensive and migraine medications can be determined after discussion with the Sponsor.
