Primary Outcome(s)
Secondary Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of ACZ885 by assessing the time course of the response to treatment according to ACR20, ACR50, ACR70, and ACR90 criteria, and by using the Simplified Disease Activity Index (SDAI) and DAS28 scoring. To assess the effect of ACZ885 on ACR components, including a marker of inflammation (C-reactive protein). To characterize the magnitude of ACZ885 joint structure preservation and/or improvement using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in RA patients who participated in the core study CACZ885A2204 and had completed baseline and 26 weeks assessments. To evaluate the effect of ACZ885 treatment on radiographically detectable change in joint structure (hands and feet) using change in modified Sharp/van der Heidje score in RA patients who participated in the core study CACZ885A2204 and had completed baseline and 26 weeks assessments. PLS SEE PROTOCOL
Primary end point(s): To assess the long-term safety and tolerability (and in particular the infection occurrence) of ACZ885 in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who participated in the core CACZ885A2204, CACZ885A2206, or CACZ885A2207 studies.
