Study Arms (2)
Golimumab + methotrexate (MTX)
EXPERIMENTALParticipants will receive golimumab 50 mg as subcutaneous (SC) (under the skin) injections administered every 4 weeks for up to 48 weeks. In addition, participants will receive a stable dose of MTX.
Placebo + methotrexate (MTX)
EXPERIMENTALParticipants will be administered Placebo SC injections at Weeks 0, 4, 8, 12, 16, and Week 20 followed by golimumab 50 mg SC injections at Week 24 and every 4 weeks thereafter through Week 48. In addition, participants will receive a stable dose of MTX.
Interventions
