Subjects who initially responded to a maximum of 2 TNF blocking agents but who later discontinued the agent(s) due to loss of efficacy or other reasons may be included Medical history exclusions: - Female subjects who are breast feeding, pregnant, or plan to become pregnant during the study or for 3 months following last dose of study medication - Subjects with a history of chronic infection, recent serious or life threatening infection (within 6 months, including herpes zoster), or a current sign or symptom that may indicate an infection (eg, fever, cough) - Subjects with a history or active systemic/respiratory infection due to fungal, parasitic, or mycotic pathogens including but not limited to histoplasmosis, coccidiosis, paracoccidiosis, pneumocystis, blastomyces, aspergillus, and nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTMB) - Radiographic evidence suggestive of any of these infections is sufficient grounds for exclusion - Subjects with known Tuberculosis (TB) infection, at high risk of acquiring TB infection, or Latent Tuberculosis (LTB) infection are excluded - Subjects at a high risk of infection (eg, leg ulcers, indwelling urinary catheter, persistent or recurrent chest infections, and subjects that are permanently bedridden or wheelchair bound) - Subjects with a positive Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) test and/or Hepatitis C virus antibody (anti HCV) test result - Subjects with positive human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) test - Subjects receiving any live (includes attenuated) vaccination within 56 days prior to Baseline (eg, injectable influenza and pneumococcal vaccines are allowed, but nasal influenza vaccine is not) - Subjects with a history of a lymphoproliferative disorder including lymphoma or signs and symptoms suggestive of lymphoproliferative disease at any time - Subjects with an active malignancy of any type or a history of malignancy (other than carcinoma of the cervix or basal cell carcinoma successfully treated more than 5 years prior to Screening) - Subjects with a history of blood dyscrasias, eg, leukemia or hemophilia where the blood constituents are abnormal or are present in abnormal quantity - Subjects with class III or IV congestive heart failure New York Heart Association (NYHA) 1994 - Subjects with a history of, or suspected, demyelinating disease of the central nervous system (eg, multiple sclerosis or optic neuritis) - Subjects with a current or recent history, as determined by the Investigator, of severe, progressive, and/or uncontrolled renal, hepatic, hematological, GI, endocrine, pulmonary, cardiac, neurological, or cerebral disease which would interfere with the subject's participation in the study. Abnormal laboratory parameters as detailed in protocol that require exclusion of a subject - Subjects with a history of an adverse reaction to Polyethylene Glycol (PEG) or a protein based medicinal product or known hypersensitivity to any components of the study medication or comparative drugs as stated in this protocol |

Primary | Percentage of Subjects Meeting the American College of Rheumatology 20 % Response Criteria (ACR20) at Week 24 | The assessments are based on a 20 % or greater improvement from Baseline to Week 24 in the number of tender joints, in the number of swollen joints, and a 20 % or greater improvement in at least 3 of the 5 remaining core set measures: Patient's Global Assessment of Disease Activity (PtGADA), Physician's Global Assessment of Disease Activity (PhGADA), Patient's Assessment of Arthritis Pain (PtAAP), physical function as assessed by the Health Assessment Questionnaire - Disability Index (HAQ-DI) and C-Reactive Protein (CRP). | Week 24 | |
Secondary | Percentage of Subjects Meeting the American College of Rheumatology 50 % Response Criteria (ACR50) at Week 24 | The assessments are based on a 50 % or greater improvement from Baseline to Week 24 in the number of tender joints, in the number of swollen joints, and a 50 % or greater improvement in at least 3 of the 5 remaining core set measures: Patient's Global Assessment of Disease Activity (PtGADA), Physician's Global Assessment of Disease Activity (PhGADA), Patient's Assessment of Arthritis Pain (PtAAP), physical function as assessed by the Health Assessment Questionnaire - Disability Index (HAQ-DI) and C-Reactive Protein (CRP). | Week 24 | |
Secondary | Percentage of Subjects Meeting the American College of Rheumatology 70 % Response Criteria (ACR70) at Week 24 | The assessments are based on a 70 % or greater improvement from Baseline to Week 24 in the number of tender joints, in the number of swollen joints, and a 70 % or greater improvement in at least 3 of the 5 remaining core set measures: Patient's Global Assessment of Disease Activity (PtGADA), Physician's Global Assessment of Disease Activity (PhGADA), Patient's Assessment of Arthritis Pain (PtAAP), physical function as assessed by the Health Assessment Questionnaire - Disability Index (HAQ-DI) and C-Reactive Protein (CRP). | Week 24 | |
Secondary | Change From Baseline in Health Assessment Questionnaire-Disability Index (HAQ-DI) at Week 24 | The HAQ-DI assesses the degree of difficulty experienced in 8 domains of daily living activities using 20 questions. Each domain consists of 2 or 3 items. For each question, the level of difficulty is scored from 0 to 3. A total score is computed from the item scores using the scoring rules provided by the index's author. HAQ-DI scores range from 0 to 3. Lower scores indicate less disability. Negative values indicate improvement from Baseline. | Baseline, Week 24 |
