Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Double-blind Period (DB); Number of Participants With American College of Rheumatology (ACR) 20 Response at Day 169
ACR 20 response requires a participant to have a 20% reduction in the number of swollen and tender joints, and a reduction of 20% in three of the following five parameters: physician global assessment of disease, participant global assessment of disease, participant assessment of pain, C-reactive protein or erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and degree of disability in Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ) score. A participant achieved a sustained ACR 20 response if the participant had ACR 20 observed for at least 2 consecutive study visits.
DB; Number of Participants Achieving Clinically Meaningful Improvement in Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ)
The disability section of the full HAQ includes 20 questions to assess physical functions in 8 domains: dressing, arising, eating, walking, hygiene, reach, grip and common activities. The 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. Higher scores= greater dysfunction. A disability index was calculated by summing the worst scores in each domain and dividing by the number of domains answered. Clinically meaningful HAQ response=an improvement of at least 0.3 units from baseline in HAQ disability Index.

Time-matched baseline levels of RF were presented by visit and represented the mean baseline value for only that cohort of participants with data available at that visit.

Brief Summary
The purpose of this clinical research study is to determine whether abatacept treatment on a background of Disease Modifying Antirheumatic Drugs (DMARDs) will relieve the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in participants who are currently receiving anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) therapy for at least 3 months and are not responding or have taken anti-TNF therapy in the last 3 months and did not respond. The safety of treatment with abatacept will also be evaluated. This study also has a 4.5-year long-term extension beginning 6 months after the start of the study.

Title
DB; Number of Participants Achieving Clinically Meaningful Improvement in Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ)
Description
The disability section of the full HAQ includes 20 questions to assess physical functions in 8 domains: dressing, arising, eating, walking, hygiene, reach, grip and common activities. The 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. Higher scores= greater dysfunction. A disability index was calculated by summing the worst scores in each domain and dividing by the number of domains answered. Clinically meaningful HAQ response=an improvement of at least 0.3 units from baseline in HAQ disability Index.

It has 36 questions with 8 subscale scores and 2 summary scores:PCS=physical functioning, role-physical, bodily pain, and general health; MCS=vitality, social functioning, role-emotional, and mental health. 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. Time-matched baseline values were presented by visit and represented the mean baseline value for only that cohort of participants with data available at that visit.

OL; Mean Time-matched Change From Baseline in Physical Function Score Over Time For Participants Treated in the OL
Description
SF-36 measures health-related quality of life across multiple disease states. It has 36 questions with 8 subscale scores and 2 summary scores: PCS=physical functioning, role-physical, bodily pain, and general health; MCS=vitality, social functioning, role-emotional, and mental health. Scoring is done for both subscores and summary scores. For both, 0=worst score (or quality of life) and 100=best score. Change from BL = Post-BL value - time-matched BL value, where the time-matched BL value represents the mean BL value for only that cohort of participants with data available at that visit.

OL; Mean Time-matched Baseline Medical Outcomes Study Sleep Module (MOS-sleep) Score Over Time For Participants Treated in the OL
Description
The validated 12-it3em Medical Outcomes Study sleep questionnaire (MOS-sleep) was used to measure sleep quality. An overall Sleep Problem Index (SPI) was generated as a summary measure of different types of sleep problems (sleep disturbance, sleep quantity, sleep adequacy, etc.). The score ranges from 0 to 100 with a higher score reflecting more severe problems with sleep. The mean score of the SPI in a population with chronic problems is 29.

OL; Mean Time-matched Baseline Activity Limitation Score Over Time For Participants Treated in the OL
Description
Limitations on activities of daily living in the OL period at each study visit were measured by a 2-item questionnaire that was developed to collect data on the amount of time that a participant is unable to perform their usual activities because of their rheumatoid arthritis. Time-matched baseline values were presented by visit and represented the mean baseline value for only that cohort of participants with data available at that visit. The scale ranges from 0 to 100 with increasing score indicating increasing restrictions on levels of activity.
