Secondary	Health Assessment Questionnaire- Disability Index	eight categories assessed by the Health Assessment Questionnaire - Disability Index 1) dressing and grooming, 2) arising, 3) eating, 4) walking, 5) hygiene, 6) reach, 7) grip and 8) common daily activities was scored as 0 (without any difficulty), 1 (with some difficulty), 2 (with much difficulty) or 3 (unable to do).; The score for the disability index is the mean of the 8 category scores. If more than 2 of the categories, or 25%, are missing, the scale is not scored. If fewer than 2 of the categories are missing, the sum of the categories is divided by the number of answered categories. A higher score indicates greater disability	week 1, week 4, week 8, week 12, week 16, week 20, and week 24

Secondary	Acute Phase C - Reactive Protein	C-reactive protein (CRP) is a blood test marker for inflammation in the body. CRP is produced in the liver and its level is measured by testing the blood.; CRP is classified as an acute phase reactant, which means that its levels will rise in response to inflammation	week 1, week 4, week 8, week 12, week 16, week 20, and week 24

Secondary	Change From Baseline in Leeds Enthesitis Index (LEI)	The LEI examines tenderness at 6 sites: 2 sites (left and right) at each of the lateral epicondyles of the humerus, medial condyles of the femur and the insertion of the Achilles tendon. For each entheseal site, assessment is made of the adjacent joint in terms of tenderness and soft-tissue swelling, with a score of 1 if present. The LEI score range is 0-6.; Lower the score better is the outcome	week 4, week 12 and week 24
