Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the proportion of Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) subjects achieving a "good" or "moderate" DAS28 response (EULAR28 criteria) at Week 16 with etanercept 50 mg subcutaneously (SC) once weekly in patients who have failed infliximab.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Proportion of subjects achieving a "good" or "moderate" DAS28 response (as defined by EULAR28 criteria) at Week 16.

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Proportion of subjects who achieve ACR 20, 50, and 70 responses at Weeks 8 and 16.

  • Proportion of subjects who achieve good or moderate DAS28 response at Week 8 and the proportion who achieve remission (DAS28 less than 2.6) at Weeks 8 and 16

  • Absolute and percent changes from baseline in components of the ACR and DAS28 criteria (including HAQ) at Weeks 8 and 16.

  • Absolute changes from baseline in SF-36 and Valued Life Activities at Weeks 8 and 16

  • Subject incidence rate of SAEs over 16 weeks
