Primary Outcome Measures:

Number of Subjects With American College of Rheumatology (ACR) Criteria Improvement of at Least 20%, 50%, and 70% (ACR20/50/70 Responders, Respectively) [ Time Frame: Every 4 weeks up to Week 24 and every 12 weeks thereafter until study completion or discontinuation (Final value) ]
Number of responders with ACR criteria improvement consisting of 20%, 50%, and 70% (ACR20, ACR50, and ACR70, respectively) reduction in tender or swollen joint counts (TJC or SJC, respectively) and 20%, 50%, and 70% improvement, respectively, in 3 of the following 5 criteria: [1] physician's global assessment of disease activity (PGA), [2] subject's assessment of disease activity, [3] subject's assessment of pain, [4] subject's assessment of physical disability via a health assessment questionnaire disability index(HAQ-DI), and [5] C-reactive protein (CRP) at each visit.

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 4 weeks up to Week 24 and every 12 weeks thereafter until study completion or discontinuation (Final value) ]
Mean change from baseline (for subjects without rescue treatment, baseline is from Study M02-575 [NCT 00647491]; for subjects with rescue treatment, baseline is from Study M03-651 [NCT 00235872]) in TJC (max = 68), a component of the ACR criteria, by visit
Mean Change From Baseline in Swollen Joint Count (SJC, Max = 66), a Component of the ACR Criteria by Visit [ Time Frame: Every 4 weeks up to Week 24 and every 12 weeks thereafter until study completion or discontinuation (final value) ]
Mean change from baseline (for subjects without rescue treatment, baseline is from Study M02-575 [NCT 00647491]; for subjects with rescue treatment, baseline is from Study M03-651 [NCT 00235872]) in SJC (max = 66), a component of the ACR criteria, by visit
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 Assessment), a Component of the ACR Criteria, by Visit [ Time Frame: Every 4 weeks weeks up to Week 24 and every 12 weeks thereafter until study completion or discontinuation (Final value) ]
Mean change from baseline (for subjects without rescue treatment, baseline is from Study M02-575 [NCT 00647491]; for subjects with rescue treatment, baseline is from Study M03-651 [NCT 00235872]) in PGA (a visual analog scale from 0 - 100 mm with 100 mm being the worst case), a component of the ACR criteria, by visit
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 Assessment), a Component of the ACR Criteria, by Visit [ Time Frame: Every 4 weeks up to Week 24 and every 12 weeks thereafter until study completion or discontinuation (Final value) ]
mean change from baseline (for subjects without rescue treatment, baseline is from Study M02-575 [NCT 00647491]; for subjects with rescue treatment, baseline is from Study M03-651 [NCT 00235872]) in subjects global assessment of disease activity (a visual analog scale from 0 - 100 mm with 100 mm being the worst case), a component of the ACR criteria, by visit
Mean Change From Baseline in Subject's Assessment of Pain Using a Visual Analog Scale (0 - 100 mm With 100 mm Being the Worst Pain), a Component of the ACR Criteria, by Visit [ Time Frame: Every 4 weeks up to Week 24 and every 12 weeks thereafter until study completion or discontinuation (Final Value) ]
Mean change from baseline (for subjects without rescue treatment, baseline is from Study M02-575 [NCT 00647491]; for subjects with rescue treatment, baseline is from Study M03-651 [NCT 00235872]) in subject's assessment of pain (on a visual analog scale from 0 - 100 mm with 100 mm being the worst pain), a component of the ACR criteria, by visit
Mean Change From Baseline in Disability Index of the Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ), a Component of the ACR Criteria, by Visit [ Time Frame: Every 4 weeks up to Week 24 and every 12 weeks thereafter until study completion or discontinuation (final value) ]
Mean change from baseline (for subjects without rescue treatment, baseline is from Study M02-575 [NCT 00647491]; for subjects with rescue treatment, baseline is from Study M03-651 [NCT 00235872]) in disability index of the HAQ (includes 20 questions assessing physical function in 8 domains. The questions are evaluated on a scale from 0 - 3 to measure the ability to perform certain activities [0 = without any difficulty, 1 = with some difficulty, 2 = with much difficulty, and 3 = unable to do so]), a component of the ACR criteria by visit
Mean Change From Baseline in C-reactive Protein (CRP), a Component of the ACR Criteria by Visit [ Time Frame: Every 4 weeks up to Week 24 and every 12 weeks thereafter until study completion or discontinuation (Final Value) ]

Presence of Morning Stiffness by Visit [ Time Frame: Every 4 weeks up to Week 24 and every 12 weeks thereafter until study completion or discontinuation (final value) ]
The number of subjects with morning stiffness at each visit among those who had morning stiffness at baseline (64).
Duration (Minutes) of the Presence of Morning Stiffness by Visit [ Time Frame: Every 4 weeks up to Week 24 and every 12 weeks thereafter until study completion or discontinuation (final value) ]
Mean change from baseline (for subjects without rescue treatment, baseline is from Study M02-575 [NCT 00647491]; for subjects with rescue treatment, baseline is from Study M03-651 [NCT 00235872]) in the duration (minutes) of stiffness in the morning.
