Eligibility | Inclusion Criteria: - Participants diagnosed with SLE. - Participants with active lupus arthritis as evident by at least 4 tender and 4 swollen joints at screening and baseline visits, and moderate or severe arthritis with active synovitis in at least 1 joint, with some loss of functional range of movement present at screening and baseline visits. Exclusion Criteria: - The participant's estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was less than or equal to 30 milliliters (mL)/minute/1.73 square meter (m^2), as calculated by the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) formula at the screening visit. - Participants with severe, unstable and/or progressive central nervous system (CNS) lupus and/or associated with significant cognitive impairment (upon the investigators' judgement). - Participants with a clinically significant or unstable medical or surgical condition that, in the investigator's opinion, would preclude safe and complete study participation. - Women who are pregnant or nursing or who intend to be during the study period. - Women of child-bearing potential who do not practice an acceptable method of birth control. |

Primary | Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) | An AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship. Serious adverse event (SAE) was an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly. AEs included both SAEs and non-serious AEs. A summary of other non-serious AEs and all SAEs, regardless of causality is located in the 'Reported AE section'. | Baseline up to Week 16 | |
Primary | Percent Change From Baseline in Swollen Joint Count at Week 12 | The number of swollen joints was used to assess lupus arthritis activity. Joint swelling was defined as soft tissue swelling that was detectable along the joint margins. 66 joints were examined for swelling. These joints include the temporomandibular (n = 2), sternoclavicular (n =2), acromioclavicular (n = 2), shoulder (n = 2), elbow (n = 2), wrist (n = 2), metacarpophalageal (n= 10), interphalangeal of thumb (n = 2), distal interphalangeal (n = 8), proximal interphalangeal (n =8), knee (n = 2), ankle mortise (n = 2), ankle tarsus (n = 2), metatarsophalangeal (n = 10), interphalangeal of great toe (n = 2), and proximal/distal interphalangeal of the toes (n = 8). | Baseline, Week 12 | |
Primary | Percent Change From Baseline in Tender Joint Count at Week 12 | The number of tender joints was used to assess lupus arthritis activity. Joint tenderness was defined as the presence or absence of tenderness and/or pain in a joint at rest with pressure or on passive movement of the joint and joint manipulation. 68 joints were examined for tenderness. These joints include the temporomandibular (n = 2), sternoclavicular (n =2), acromioclavicular (n = 2), shoulder (n = 2), elbow (n = 2), wrist (n = 2), metacarpophalageal (n= 10), interphalangeal of thumb (n = 2), distal interphalangeal (n = 8), proximal interphalangeal (n =8), hip (n = 2), knee (n = 2), ankle mortise (n = 2), ankle tarsus (n = 2), metatarsophalangeal (n = 10), interphalangeal of great toe (n = 2), and proximal/distal interphalangeal of the toes (n = 8). | Baseline, Week 12 |
