A Study to Evaluate the Nipocalimab and Certolizumab Combination Therapy in Participants With Active Rheumatoid Arthritis (DAISY)

Inclusion Criteria: Diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and meeting the 2010 American college of rheumatology (ACR) or European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR) criteria for RA for at least 3 months before screening Has moderate to severe active RA as defined by persistent disease activity with at least 6 of 66 swollen joints and 6 of 68 tender joints at the time of screening and at baseline Is positive for anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPA) or rheumatoid factor (RF) by the central laboratory at the time of screening Has C-reactive protein (CRP) greater than or equal to (>=) 0.3 milligram per deciliter (mg/dL) by the central laboratory at the time of screening If has received prior biological disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (bDMARDs) (or biosimilars) other than anti-tumor necrosis factor (anti-TNF) agent in RA, has demonstrated inadequate response (IR) or intolerance to the therapy based on one of the following: IR to at least 1bDMARD (or the biosimilars) other than anti-TNF agents, as assessed by the treating physician, after at least 12 weeks of therapy including but not limited to abatacept, anakinra, tocilizumab, and sarilumab or at least 16 weeks of therapy with rituximab Documented IR may include inadequate improvement or loss in response after initial improvement in joint counts or other parameters of disease activity Intolerance to bDMARD (or biosimilars) other than anti-TNF agent, as assessed by the treating physician. Documented intolerance includes side effects and injection or infusion reactions If has received prior anti-TNF agent (including biosimilars), has demonstrated IR to >=1 anti-TNF agent (including biosimilars), as assessed by the treating physician: After at least 12 weeks dosage of etanercept, adalimumab, golimumab (including biosimilars), and/or After at least 14 weeks dosage (example, at least 4 doses) of infliximab (including biosimilars) Documented IR may include inadequate improvement or loss in response after initial improvement in joint counts or other parameters of disease activity Exclusion Criteria: Has a confirmed or suspected clinical immunodeficiency syndrome not related to treatment of RA or has a family history of congenital or hereditary immunodeficiency unless confirmed absent Is (anatomically or functionally) asplenic Has experienced myocardial infarction, unstable ischemic heart disease, or stroke less than or equal to (<=) 12 weeks of screening Has a diagnosis of congestive heart failure including medically controlled, asymptomatic congestive heart failure Has a history of known demyelinating disease such as multiple sclerosis or optic neuritis
