Primary | Mean Change From Baseline in Global Power Doppler Ultrasonography (PDUS) Score Assessing the Metacarpophalangeal (MCP) 2-5 Joints of Both Hands (LOCF Analysis) | LOCF=last observation carried forward. PDUS assessed the degree of synovial inflammation of the MCP joints (2nd to 5th) of both hands and was performed at approximately the same time of day for each participant. Total PDUS scores are independent of the presence and grade of joint effusion and are evaluated as follows: Grade 0 or normal=normal joint (no synovial hypertrophy, no Doppler signal); Grade 1 or minimal=minimal synovitis (minimal synovial hypertrophy, with =Grade 1 Doppler signal); Grade 2 or moderate=moderate synovitis (moderate synovial hypertrophy with =Grade 2 Doppler signal or minimal synovial hypertrophy and Grade 2 Doppler signal; Grade 3 or severe=severe synovitis (severe synovial hypertrophy with =Grade 3 Doppler signal or minimal or moderate synovial hypertrophy and Grade 3 Doppler signal). Each joint is rated 1 to 3, for a total possible score ranging from 8 to 24 (8*1, 8*3) for 2 hands. Higher grade/score=more severe disease. Change=score Day x - baseline score. | Baseline to Days 7, 15, 29, 43, 57, 85, 113, 141, and 169 | No |
Primary | Earliest Time Point at Which Improvement of Core Component of the Global PDUS in the MCP (2-5) Joints of Both Hands Was Assessed | MCP=metacarpophalangeal; PDUS=power Doppler ultrasonography. Time point at which early signs of Global PDUS improvement were observed=earliest time point for which 0 was not included in the 95% confidence interval for the mean changes from baseline in Global PDUS (MCP 2-5) score at that and all later time points. Total PDUS scores are independent of the presence and grade of joint effusion: Grade (Gr) 0 or normal=normal joint (no synovial hypertrophy [SH], no Doppler signal); Gr 1 or minimal=minimal synovitis (minimal SH, with =Gr 1 Doppler signal); Gr 2 or moderate=moderate synovitis (moderate SH, with =Gr 2 Doppler signal or minimal SH and grade 2 Doppler signal); Gr 3 or severe=severe synovitis (severe SH with =Gr 3 Doppler signal or minimal or moderate SH and Gr 3 Doppler signal). Each joint is rated 1 to 3, for a total possible score ranging from 8 to 24 (8*1, 8*3) for the 2 hands. Higher Gr/score=more severe disease. | Baseline to Days 7, 15, 29, 43, 57, 85, 113, 141, and 169 | No |
Secondary | Mean Change From Baseline in Global PDUS MCP 2-5 Component Scores Over Time (LOCF Analysis) | PDUS=power Doppler ultrasonography; MCP=metacarpophalangeal; LOCF=last observation carried forward. PDUS was used to assess the degree of synovial inflammation of the MCP joints (2nd to 5th) of both hands and was performed at approximately the same time of day for each participant. PDUS scores are independent of the presence and grade of joint effusion and are evaluated as follows: Grade 0 or normal=normal joint (no synovial hypertrophy, no Doppler signal); Grade 1 or minimal=minimal synovitis (minimal synovial hypertrophy, with =Grade 1 Doppler signal); Grade 2 or moderate=moderate synovitis (moderate synovial hypertrophy with =Grade 2 Doppler signal or minimal synovial hypertrophy and grade 2 Doppler signal); Grade 3 or severe=severe synovitis (severe synovial hypertrophy with = Grade 3 Doppler signal or minimal or 1-3, for a total possible score ranging from 8 to 24 (8*1, 8*3) for the 2 hands. Higher grade/score=more severe disease. Change=score Day X-baseline score. | Days 7, 15, 29, and 169 | No |
Secondary | Number of Early (Days 7 to 113) Global PDUS MCP 2-5 Scores or Global PDUS Component MCP 2-5 Scores Associated With an Acceptable Predictability of Clinical Response at Day 169, As Assessed by DAS28-CRP | MCP=metacarpophalangeal; PDUS=power Doppler ultrasonography; DAS=Disease Activity Score;CRP=C-reactive protein. Receiver Operator Characteristics (ROC) analysis assessed predicatability. ROC curve analyses performed; area under the curve of =0.7 was considered acceptable for prediction. Clinical response defined as: Clinically Meaningful Improvement=drop from baseline of =1.2 in DAS28-CRP; Remission=DAS28-CRP score <2.6; Low Disease Activity==3.2. PDUS scores: Grade (Gr) 0 or normal=normal joint (no synovial hypertrophy [SH], no Doppler signal); Gr 1 or minimal=minimal synovitis (minimal SH, with =Gr 1 Doppler signal); Gr 2 or moderate=moderate synovitis (moderate SH with =Gr 2 Doppler signal or minimal SH and Gr 2 Doppler signal); Gr 3 or severe=severe synovitis (severe SH with =Gr 3 Doppler signal or minimal or moderate SH and Gr 3 Doppler signal). Each joint rated 1-3, for a total possible score ranging from 8-24 (8*1, 8*3)for the 2 hands. Higher gr/score=more severe disease. | Days 1 to 169 | No |
Secondary | Number of Participants With Death as Outcome, Serious Adverse Events(SAEs), Treatment-related SAEs, Discontinuations Due to SAEs, Adverse Events (AEs), Treatment-related AEs, Discontinuations Due to AEs | AE=any new unfavorable symptom, sign, or disease or worsening of a preexisting condition that may not have a causal relationship with treatment. SAE=a medical event that at any dose results in death, persistent or significant disability/incapacity, or drug dependency/abuse; is life-threatening, an important medical event, or a congenital anomaly/birth defect; or requires or prolongs hospitalization. Treatment-related=having certain, probable, possible, or missing relationship to study drug. | Days 1 to 169 to 56 days following last infusion | Yes |
Secondary | Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) of Interest | AE=any new unfavorable symptom, sign, or disease or worsening of a preexisting condition that may not have a causal relationship with treatment. Infusion reaction: acute=1 hour or less after start of dosing; periinfusional=24 hours or less after start of dosing. | Days 1 to 169 to 56 days following last infusion | Yes |
