Arm Description

In participants who have had an inadequate efficacy response or intolerance on previous TNF-antagonist therapy (off therapy for at least 2 months), open-label abatacept was administered on Days 1, 15, and 29 and then once a month thereafter on a background of non-biologic Disease Modifying Anti-Rheumatic Drug (DMARD)s. Participants weighing < 60 kg received 500 mg, participants weighing 60 to 100 kg received 750 mg, and participants weighing > 100 kg received 1 gram of open-label abatacept by intravenous (IV) infusion.

In participants currently using Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF)-agonists, open-label abatacept was administered on Days 1, 15, and 29 and then once a month thereafter on a background of non-biologic Disease Modifying Anti-Rheumatic Drug (DMARD)s. Participants weighing < 60 kg received 500 mg, participants weighing 60 to 100 kg received 750 mg, and participants weighing > 100 kg received 1 gram of open-label abatacept by intravenous (IV) infusion.

Participants continued to receive the same 10 mg/kg weight-tiered dose of abatacept that they received in the initial short-term period.

The DAS28 has numeric thresholds that define high disease activity (> 5.1), low disease activity (< 3.2) and remission (< 2.6). A clinically significant response= decrease in DAS28 score of >1.2 from baseline.

Short-term Period: Mean Change From Baseline to Day 169 in Rheumatoid Factor (RF)
RF is an autoantibody (antibody directed against an organism's own tissues) most relevant in rheumatoid arthritis. It is an antibody against the Fc portion of Immunoglobulin (Ig)G, which is itself an antibody. RF and IgG join to form immune complexes which contribute to the disease process.

The HAQ-DI includes 20 questions to assess physical functions in 8 domains: dressing, arising, eating, walking, hygiene, reach, grip and common activities. The domain questions are evaluated on a 4-point scale: 0=without any difficulty, 1= with some difficulty, 2= with much difficulty, and 3= unable to do. HAQ-DI= sum of worst scores in each domain divided by the number of domains answered. HAQ-DI ranges from a minimum of 0 (no difficulty) to a maximum overall score of 3(unable to do).

HAQ-DI= sum of worst scores in each domain divided by the number of domains answered. HAQ-DI ranges from a minimum of 0 (no difficulty) to a maximum overall score of 3(unable to do). Clinically meaningful HAQ response=an improvement of at least 0.3 units from baseline in HAQ disability Index.
Short-term Period: Mean Baseline Short Form 36 (SF-36) Quality of Life Physical Component Summary (PCS), Mental Component Summary (MCS), and SF-36 Individual Component Scores

There is no total overall score; scoring is done for both subscores and summary scores. For subscores and summary scores, 0 =worst score (or quality of life) and 100=best score. Change from Baseline= post-Baseline - Baseline value.

The VAS for Fatigue (VAS-F) consists of a 100 mm line, with 0 (No Fatigue) on 1 end and 100 (Extreme Fatigue) on the other end, which a participant marks to indicate how much fatigue he or she feels. The marked point in mm is converted into a numeric value from 0 to 100, where 0=no fatigue and 100=maximum fatigue. Increasing numbers=increasing fatigue. Time-matched baseline (Day 0) values and post-baseline values were presented for each post-baseline visit, and represent only that cohort of participants with measurements available at that post-baseline visit.

Secondary Outcome Measure Information:
Title
Short-term Period: Number of Participants With Clinically Meaningful Improvement (CMI) in Disease Activity Score (DAS 28), Low Disease Activity (LDAS), or Remission at Day 169
Description
The DAS 28 is a continuous disease measure which is a composite of 4 variables: the 28 tender joint count, the 28 swollen joint count, ESR or CRP, and participant assessment of disease activity measure on a visual analogue scale. The DAS28 has numeric thresholds that define high disease activity (> 5.1), low disease activity (< 3.2) and remission (< 2.6). A clinically significant response= decrease in DAS28 score of >1.2 from baseline.

Description
The SF-36 is a validated instrument measuring health-related quality of life across multiple disease states. It has 36 questions with 8 subscale scores and 2 summary scores (1) physical component summary=physical functioning, role-physical, bodily pain, and general health; (2) mental component summary=vitality, social functioning, role-emotional, and mental health. There is no total overall score; scoring is done for both subscores and summary scores. For subscores and summary scores, 0 =worst score (or quality of life) and 100=best score. Change from Baseline= post-Baseline - Baseline value.
