A Single Centre, Open-Label, Randomised, Study to Evaluate the Effect of Anakinra (r-metHuIL-1ra) Alone and in Combination With PEGylated Recombinant Methionyl Human Soluble Tumour Necrosis Factor Receptor Type I (PEG sTNF-RI) on Synovial Inflammation in Subjects With Rheumatoid Arthritis.
The purpose of this study is to compare IL-1ra and the combination of IL-1ra and PEGsTNF-RI with respect to their ability to reduce inflammation and bone and cartilage destruction in the synovium of subjects with rheumatoid arthritis.
