ACR20 Responder Index is a composite of clinical, laboratory, and functional measures in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). An ACR20 Responder is a participant who had ≥20% improvement from baseline in both 68 tender and 66 swollen joint counts and ≥20% improvement in at least 3 of 5 criteria: Patient's and Physician's Global Assessment of Disease Activity, Health Assessment Questionnaire-Disability Index (HAQ-DI) (assessment of participant's physical function), pain due to RA, and hsCRP. Participants who discontinue before analysis time point are treated as non-responders. Percentage of participants achieving ACR20 response = (number of ACR20 responders) / (number of participants analyzed) \* 100.

An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant or clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product and that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can be any unfavorable and unintended sign (i.e., abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal (investigational) product, whether or not related to the medicinal (investigational) product. Non-serious AEs are reported at a threshold of 5%. An SAE is an AE from this study that results in any of the following: death, initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization, a life-threatening experience, persistent or significant disability/incapacity, congenital anomaly/birth defect, considered significant by the investigator for any other reason A summary of serious adverse events (SAEs) and other non-serious adverse events (AEs), regardless of causality, were reported in the Reported Adverse Events module.

ACR20 Responder Index is a composite of clinical, laboratory, and functional measures in rheumatoid arthritis. ACR20 Responder is a participant who has at least 20% improvement in both tender and swollen joint counts and in at least 3 of the following 5 criteria: Physician's Global Assessment of Disease Activity, Patient's Global Assessment of Disease Activity using visual analog scale (VAS), Health Assessment Questionnaire - Disability Index (HAQ-DI), pain due to arthritis, and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP). Participants with missing responses and participants who discontinue study or drug or are rescued before analysis timepoint are deemed non-responders.
