Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Percentage of Participants With RAPID3 Remission or Low Severity at Each Time Point
The Multi-Dimensional Health Assessment Questionnaire (MDHAQ) is adapted from the standard HAQ and is used for the computation of the Routine Assessment of Patient Index Data 3 (RAPID3). The RAPID 3 includes the 3 Core Data Set measures of physical function, pain, and patient global estimate. The score for physical function ranges from 0 to 10 and is calculated by adding the ten activities of daily living, each scored from 0 to 3 by the patient (0="without any difficulty", 1="with some difficulty", 2="with much difficulty", and 3="unable to do") and dividing the total raw score by 3. Pain and global estimate of health are measured on a likert scale from 0 to 10, both scored 0 (best) to 10 (worst). The three 0-10 scores for physical function, pain, and global assesment of health are added together for a composite score of 0 to 30. The RAPID3 composite score includes 4 categories: High Severity > 12, Moderate Severity = 6.1 - 12, Low severity = 3.1 - 6, and Remission ≤ 3.

Title
Percentage of Participants Achieving DAS28 Low Disease Activity at Week 12
Description
Low disease activity is defined by a disease activity score (28 joint) calculated using the C-reactive protein formula (DAS28-CRP) of less than 3.2. The DAS28 is a composite score to measure disease activity in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, derived from the following variables: • The number of swollen and tender joints assessed using the 28-joint count; • C-Reactive Protein (CRP) level • Patient's global assessment of disease activity measured on a likert scale from 0 (no activity at all) to 10 (worst activity). The DAS28 score ranges from zero up to approximately ten. DAS28 scores above 5.1 indicate high disease activity.

Percentage of Participants With RAPID3 Remission or Low Severity at Each Time Point
Description
The Multi-Dimensional Health Assessment Questionnaire (MDHAQ) is adapted from the standard HAQ and is used for the computation of the Routine Assessment of Patient Index Data 3 (RAPID3). The RAPID 3 includes the 3 Core Data Set measures of physical function, pain, and patient global estimate. The score for physical function ranges from 0 to 10 and is calculated by adding the ten activities of daily living, each scored from 0 to 3 by the patient (0="without any difficulty", 1="with some difficulty", 2="with much difficulty", and 3="unable to do") and dividing the total raw score by 3. Pain and global estimate of health are measured on a likert scale from 0 to 10, both scored 0 (best) to 10 (worst). The three 0-10 scores for physical function, pain, and global assesment of health are added together for a composite score of 0 to 30. The RAPID3 composite score includes 4 categories: High Severity > 12, Moderate Severity = 6.1 - 12, Low severity = 3.1 - 6, and Remission ≤ 3.
