Brief Summary
Primary Objective: To demonstrate the treatment effect of sarilumab and methotrexate (MTX) compared to etanercept and MTX in participants with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and an inadequate response to adalimumab and MTX by evaluation of the Disease Activity Score for 28 joints (DAS28). Secondary Objectives: To assess the signs and symptoms of RA in participants taking sarilumab in combination with MTX. To assess the quality of life of participants with RA taking sarilumab in combination with MTX. To assess the safety and tolerability of sarilumab in combination with MTX in participants with RA.

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Diagnosis of RA \>/= 3 months duration.
- Continuous treatment of MTX 10 - 25 mg/week (or per local labeling requirements if the dose range differs) for at least 12 weeks before screening visit and on a stable dose for 8 weeks before screening visit.
- Active disease defined as: at least 6/66 swollen and 8/68 tender joints and high sensitivity C-reactive protein \> 10 mg/L.
You may not qualify if:
- Age \< 18 years.
- Use of parenteral corticosteroids or intra-articular corticosteroids within 4 weeks of the screening visit.
- Use of oral corticosteroids in a dose higher than prednisone 10 mg or equivalent per day, or a change in dosage within 4 weeks of the screening visit.
- Prior treatment with a tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha inhibitor, or other biological disease modifying anti-rheumatoid drug (DMARD) or Janus Kinase inhibitor.
- New treatment with or dose-adjustment of on-going nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) or cyclo-oxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitors within 4 weeks of the screening visit.
- Treatment with traditional oral DMARD /immunosuppressive agents other than MTX within 4 weeks or 12 weeks before the screening visit, depending on DMARD.
