What was measured

Improvement must be seen in tender and swollen joint counts (28 assessed joints) and in at least 3 of the following 5 parameters: Separate patient and physician assessments of patient disease activity in the previous 24 hours on a visual analog scale (VAS, the extreme left end of the line "no disease activity" \[symptom-free and no arthritis symptoms\] and the extreme right end "maximum disease activity"; patient assessment of pain in previous the 24 hours on a VAS (extreme left end of the line "no pain" and the extreme right end "unbearable pain"); Health Assessment Questionnaire-Disability Index (20 questions, 8 components: dressing/grooming, arising, eating, walking, hygiene, reach, grip, and activities, 0=without difficulty to 3=unable to do); and C reactive protein or, if missing, erythrocyte sedimentation rate.

Analysis population: Safety population: All patients who received any amount of rituximab or any vaccine. Since only limited efficacy data were collected in this study, the parameters necessary to calculate the ACR20/50/70 responses were only available for patients in Group A.

Groups in this outcome

Rituximab + Methotrexate (Group A)

Patients received 2 intravenous infusions of rituximab 1000 mg, 14 days apart + methotrexate 10-25 mg/wk orally or subcutaneously during the Treatment Period.

Group identifiers and denominators belong to this outcome only. They may differ in another outcome or in safety reporting.
