Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Number of Responders With American College of Rheumatology (ACR) Criteria Improvement of at Least 20%, 50%, and 70% (ACR 20/50/70 Responders) [ Time Frame: Every 6 weeks up to Week 24 and every 12 weeks thereafter up to study completion or discontinuation (final value) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Mean Change From Baseline in Tender Joint Count (TJC, Max = 68), a Component of the ACR Criteria, by Visit [ Time Frame: Every 6 weeks up to Week 24 and every 12 weeks thereafter up to study completion or discontinuation (final value) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Mean Change From Baseline in Swollen Joint Count (SJC, Max = 66), a Component of the ACR Criteria, by Visit [ Time Frame: Every 6 weeks up to Week 24 and every 12 weeks thereafter up to study completion or discontinuation (final value) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Mean Change From Baseline in Physician's Global Assessment of Disease Activity (PGA) Using a Visual Analog Scale (0 - 100 mm With 100 mm Being the Worst Possible Assessment), a Component of the ACR Criteria, by Visit [ Time Frame: Every 6 weeks up to Week 24 and every 12 weeks thereafter up to study completion or discontinuation (final value) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Mean Change From Baseline in Subject's Global Assessment of Disease Activity Using a Visual Analog Scale (0 - 100 mm With 100 mm Being the Worst Possible Assessment), a Component of the ACR Criteria, by Visit [ Time Frame: Every 6 weeks up to Week 24 and every 12 weeks thereafter up to study completion or discontinuation (final value) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Mean Change From Baseline (Last Assessment in Preceding Study Prior to Adalimumab Injection) in Subject's Assessment of Pain Using a Visual Analog Scale (0 - 100 mm With 100 mm Being the Worst Possible Pain), a Component of the ACR Criteria, by Visit [ Time Frame: Every 6 weeks up to Week 24 and every 12 weeks thereafter up to study completion or discontinuation (final value) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Mean Change From Baseline in Disability Index of the Health Assessment Questionnaire [HAQ], a Component the of ACR Criteria, by Visit [ Time Frame: Every 6 weeks up to Week 24 and every 12 weeks thereafter up to study completion or discontinuation (final value) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Mean Change From Baseline in C-reactive Protein [CRP; mg/dL], a Component of the ACR Criteria, by Visit. [ Time Frame: Every 6 weeks up to Week 24 and every 12 weeks thereafter up to study completion or discontinuation (final value) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Area Under the Curve (AUC; From Start of the Study to Each Study Visit) of Subjects' Who Improved at Least 20% in ACR Response Criteria (ACR20 Response) [ Time Frame: Every 6 weeks up to Week 24 and every 12 weeks thereafter ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Number of Subjects With Morning Stiffness at Each Visit [ Time Frame: Every 6 weeks up to Week 24 and every 12 weeks thereafter up to study completion or discontinuation (final value) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
