- Change from Baseline in the Disease Activity Score 28-joint count (C-reactive protein) (DAS28[CRP]) at Week 12 [ Time Frame: From Week 0 (Baseline) to Week 12 ]
- Number of responders in American College of Rheumatology 20% Response Criteria (ACR20) at Week 12 [ Time Frame: From Week 0 (Baseline) to Week 12 ]Number of subjects who achieve ACR 20 will be calculated at week 12. The calculation is based on the improvement from the baseline in the number of tender joints and in the number of swollen joints each; and the improvement based on assessments from the patient and the physician drawn according to defined standards.
- Number of responders in American College of Rheumatology 50% Response Criteria (ACR50) at Week 12 [ Time Frame: From Week 0 (Baseline) to Week 12 ]Number of subjects who achieve ACR 50 will be calculated at week 12. The calculation is based on the improvement from the baseline in the number of tender joints and in the number of swollen joints each; and the improvement based on assessments from the patient and the physician drawn according to defined standards.
- Number of responders in American College of Rheumatology 70% Response Criteria (ACR70) at Week 12 [ Time Frame: From Week 0 (Baseline) to Week 12 ]Number of subjects who achieve ACR 70 will be calculated at week 12. The calculations is based on the improvement from the baseline in the number of tender joints and in the number of swollen joints each; and the improvement based on assessments from the patient and the physician drawn according to defined standards.
