What was measured
Change of the Disease Activity Score 28 score from baseline was used to determine EULAR responses of good, moderate, or no response. For a post-baseline score ≤ 3.2, a change from baseline of \< -1.2 was a good response, \< -0.6 to ≥ -1.2 was a moderate response, and ≥ -0.6 was no response. For a post-baseline score \> 3.2 to ≤ 5.1, a change from baseline of \< -0.6 was a moderate response and ≥ -0.6 was no response. For a post-baseline score \> 5.1, a change from baseline \< -1.2 was a moderate response and ≥ -1.2 was no response. A good response could not be achieved for post-baseline scores \> 3.2. The first retreatment may have occurred in the precursor study WA17042.
Analysis population: Intent-to-treat population: All participants who received any part of an infusion of study medication in study WA17531.
Groups in this outcome
Rituximab
Participants received rituximab 1 g intravenously (IV) on Days 1 and 15 of each course of retreatment. In addition, participants received methotrexate 10-25 mg/week orally or parenterally, methylprednisolone 100 mg IV 30 minutes prior to both rituximab infusions, and a stable dose of folic acid ≥ 5 mg/week or equivalent, given as either a single dose or as divided daily doses.
