Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Number of Participants With Adverse Events [ Time Frame: From the first dose of study drug in the extension study to 28 days following the last dose; 72 weeks ]

    Adverse events (AEs) were graded for severity according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.03 according to the following scale:

    1 = mild; 2 = moderate; 3 = severe; 4 = life-threatening; 5 = fatal. A treatment-related AE is defined as an event where the answer to the question "is there a reasonable possibility that the event may have been caused by the Investigational Medicinal Product" was yes.

    A serious adverse event is defined as an AE that meets at least 1 of the following serious criteria:

    • fatal
    • life threatening (places the subject at immediate risk of death)
    • requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization
    • results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity
    • congenital anomaly/birth defect
    • other medically important serious event.

  2. Number of Participants With Grade ≥ 3 Hematology and Chemistry Laboratory Results [ Time Frame: From the first dose of study drug in the extension study to 28 days following the last dose; 72 weeks ]

    Laboratory results were graded according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.03 according to the following scale:

    1 = mild; 2 = moderate; 3 = severe; 4 = life-threatening; 5 = fatal.


  3. Percentage of Participants Who Developed Antibodies to ABP 501 [ Time Frame: Up to week 72 ]

    Two validated assays were used to detect the presence of anti-drug antibodies. All samples were first tested in an electrochemiluminescence (ECL)-based bridging immunoassay to detect anti-drug antibodies against ABP 501 (Binding Antibody Assay). Samples confirmed to be positive for binding antibodies were subsequently tested in a non-cell based bioassay to determine neutralizing activity against ABP 501. If a sample was positive for binding antibodies and demonstrated neutralizing activity at the same time point, the sample was defined as positive for neutralizing antibodies.

    Preexisting antibody positive indicates participants with a positive result at baseline of the extension study. Developing antibody positive indicates participants with a negative or no result at baseline of the extension study who were positive at any time point post-baseline during the extension study.



Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Percentage of Participants With an American College of Rheumatology (ACR) 20 Response [ Time Frame: Parent study baseline, extension study baseline and weeks 4, 24, 48, and 70 ]

    A participant was a responder if the following 3 criteria for improvement from Baseline of the parent study were met:

    • ≥ 20% improvement in tender joint count;
    • ≥ 20% improvement in swollen joint count; and
    • ≥ 20% improvement in at least 3 of the 5 following parameters:

      • Patient's assessment of pain (measured on a 100 mm visual analog scale [VAS]);
      • Patient's global assessment of disease activity (measured on a likert scale from 0 to 10);
      • Physician's global assessment of disease activity (measured on a likert scale from 0 to 10);
      • Patient's self-assessment of physical function (Health Assessment Questionnaire - Disability Index [HAQ-DI]);
      • C-Reactive Protein level.

  2. Change From Parent Study Baseline in Disease Activity Score 28-C-reactive Protein (DAS28-CRP) [ Time Frame: Parent study baseline, extension study baseline and weeks 4, 24, 48 and 70 ]

    The DAS28-CRP is a composite score to measure disease activity in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, derived from the following variables:

    • The number of swollen and tender joints assessed using the 28-joint count;
    • C-reactive protein (CRP) level
    • Patient's global assessment of disease activity assessed on a score from 0 to 100 transformed from the result measured on a horizontal scale from 0 (no RA activity at all) to 10 (worst RA activity imaginable).

    The DAS28-CRP score ranges from approximately zero to ten. Higher DAS28-CRP scores indicate higher disease activity.
