Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Other interventions - ABP 710
Other interventions - Infliximab

Experimental: ABP 710 - Participants randomized to receive a 3 mg/kg intravenous (IV) infusion of ABP 710 on day 1, at weeks 2 and 6, and every 8 weeks thereafter until week 22.
At week 22 participants continued receiving 3 mg/kg ABP 710 every 8 weeks through week 46.

Active Comparator: Infliximab - Participants randomized to receive a 3 mg/kg IV infusion of infliximab on day 1, at weeks 2 and 6, and every 8 weeks thereafter until week 22.
At week 22 participants were re-randomized in a 1:1 ratio to either continue receiving 3 mg/kg infliximab every 8 weeks or transition to receive 3 mg/kg ABP 710 every 8 weeks through week 46.

Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
- Subject (man or woman) is = 18 and = 80 years old.

- Subject has RA duration of at least 3 months.

- Subject has active RA defined as = 6 swollen joints and = 6 tender joints (based on
66/68 joint count excluding distal interphalangeal joints) at screening and baseline
and at least 1 of the following at screening:

- erythrocyte sedimentation rate = 28 mm/hr

- Subject has a positive rheumatoid factor or anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide at
screening.

- Subject has taken methotrexate (MTX) for = 12 consecutive weeks and is on a stable
dose of oral or subcutaneous MTX 7.5 to 25 mg/week for = 8 weeks before receiving the
investigational product and is willing to remain on a stable dose throughout the
study.

- For a subject on nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) or low potency
analgesics such as tramadol, Soma Compounds, Fioricet, or Fiorinal, the dose should be
stable for = 2 weeks before screening.

- For a subject on oral corticosteroids (= 10 mg prednisone or equivalent), the dose
should be stable for = 4 weeks before screening.

- Subject has no known history of active tuberculosis.

- Subject has a negative test for tuberculosis during screening defined as either:

- negative purified protein derivative (PPD) defined as < 5 mm of induration at 48
to 72 hours after test is placed OR

- negative Quantiferon test

- Subject with a positive PPD and a history of Bacillus Calmette-Guérin vaccination is
allowed with a negative Quantiferon test.

- Subject with a positive PPD test (without a history of Bacillus Calmette-Guérin
vaccination) or a subject with a positive or indeterminate Quantiferon test is allowed
if they have all of the following:
