The HAQ-DI score is defined as the average of the scores of eight functional categories (dressing and grooming, arising, eating, walking, hygiene, reach, grip, and other activities), usually completed by the participant. Responses in each functional category are collected as 0-3 \[0 (without any difficulty) to 3 (unable to do a task in that area), with or without aids or devices\]. The eight category scores are averaged into an overall HAQ-DI score on a scale from 0-3 \[0 (no disability) to 3 (completely disabled)\] when 6 or more categories are non-missing, total possible score is 3. If more than 2 categories are missing, the HAQ-DI score is set to missing. Negative change from baseline indicates improvement (less disability).

The SF-36 is a 36-item, self-reported, generic, comprehensive, and health-related quality of life questionnaire based on 8 health domains in 2 components: physical well-being (physical functioning, role-physical, bodily pain, general health perceptions), mental well-being (vitality, social functioning, role-emotional, and mental health). Each domain is scored by summing the individual items and transforming the scores into a 0 to 100 scale with highest possible score of 100. Higher scores indicate better health status or functioning. Positive change in value indicates improvement and better quality of life.

The total SJC66 was based on 66 joints (same 68 joints counted in TJC68 minus hips). It was derived as the sum of all "1s" (presence of a joint swelling was scored as "1" and the absence of swelling was scored as "0," provided the joint was not replaced or could not be assessed due to other reasons) thus collected with no penalty considered for the joints not assessed or those which had been replaced. The range for SJC66 is 0 to 66. A negative change from baseline indicates improvement.

ACR-N is defined as the smallest percentage improvement from baseline in swollen joints, tender joints and the median of the following 5 items (PGA, SGA, subject's pain assessment, HAQ-DI and hsCRP). It has a range between 0 and 100%. PGA and SGA assessed using VAS on a scale of 0-100 \[0 and 100 indicating no disease activity and maximum disease activity\]; subject's pain assessment using VAS on a scale of 0-100 \[0 and 100 indicating no pain and unbearable pain\]; HAQ-DI score contains 20 questions,8 components: dressing/grooming, arising, eating, walking, hygiene, reach, grip and activities and scored on a scale of 0-3 \[0 and 3 indicating without difficulty and unable to do\]. If this calculation results in a negative value, then the ACR-N is set to 0. The ACR-N value indicates an improvement of N%, with higher numbers indicating greater improvement.

The EQ-5D-5 levels (EQ-5D-5L) is a standardized measure of health status of the participant at the visit (same day) that provides a simple, generic measure of health for clinical and economic appraisal. EQ-5D-5L consists of 2 components: a descriptive system of the participant's health and a rating of his or her current health state on a 0-100 VAS. The descriptive system comprises the following 5 dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression. Each dimension has 5 levels: no problems, slight problems, moderate problems, severe problems, and extreme problems. Rating gets recorded on a vertical VAS in which the endpoints are labeled best imaginable health state is 100 (on the top) and worst imaginable health state is 0 (on the bottom). Higher scores of EQ VAS indicate better health.

Change From Baseline in EQ-5D Current Health VAS at Weeks 4, 12, and 24
Query!
Assessment method [32]

0
The EQ-5D-5L is a standardized measure of health status of the participant at the visit (same day) that provides a simple, generic measure of health for clinical and economic appraisal. Participant rates their current health state on a 0-100 VAS. It gets recorded on a vertical VAS in which the endpoints are labeled best imaginable health state is 100 (on the top) and worst imaginable health state is 0 (on the bottom). Higher scores of EQ VAS indicate better health. Positive change indicates improvement (better health).

Work Productivity and Activity Impairment-Rheumatoid Arthritis (WPAI-RA): Mean Percentage of Work Time Missed (Absenteeism) at Weeks 4, 12, and 24
Query!
Assessment method [33]

0
The WPAI is a questionnaire that measures impairments in work activities in participants with RA which consists of 6 questions: Q1-currently employed; Q2-work time missed due to RA; Q3-work time missed due to other reasons; Q4-hours actually worked; Q5-degree RA affected productivity while working (0-10 VAS, with 0 indicating no effect and 10 indicating RA completely prevented the participant from working); Q6-degree RA affected productivity in regular unpaid activities (0-10 VAS, with 0 indicating no effect and 10 indicating RA completely prevented the participant's daily activities). Outcomes are expressed as impairment percentages: Absenteeism (work time missed) due to RA: 100×{Q2/(Q2+Q4)}. Higher numbers indicate greater impairment and less productivity.

Outcomes are expressed as impairment percentages: Activity impairment due to RA: 100×{Q6/10}. If Question 1 (Are you currently employed?) is 'NO', then only the activity impairment score can be determined. Higher numbers indicate greater impairment and less productivity.
