Number of Participants With Adverse Drug Reactions (ADRs) Primary · 30 weeks from the day of initial dose

An ADR was a treatment-related adverse event, and any untoward medical occurrence attributed to Infliximab BS for I.V. Infusion 100mg \[Pfizer\] \[Infliximab Biosimilar 3\] in a participant who received this drug. A serious ADR was a treatment-related adverse event resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; life-threatening; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; persistent or significant disability/incapacity; and congenital anomaly/birth defect.

Change in Disease Activity Score Based on 28-joint Count and C-reactive Protein (4 Variables) (DAS28 [4/CRP]) Secondary · 30 weeks from the day of initial dose

The Disease Activity Score based on 28-joint count and C-reactive protein (DAS28 \[4/CRP\]) was calculated using four variables: Tender Joint Count (TJC28) and Swollen Joint Count (SJC28), both scored from 0 to 28; participant's overall activity assessed by the Visual Analog Scale (VAS, 0-100 mm); and C-reactive protein (CRP, ≥0 mg/dL). Higher scores indicate increased disease activity. The formula is: DAS28 (4/CRP) = 0.56 × √(TJC28) + 0.28 × √(SJC28) + 0.36 × LN((CRP) × 10 + 1) + 0.014 × (VAS) + 0.96. Changes in DAS28 (4/CRP) from baseline to study completion were summarized as mean ± stan

Percentage of Participants With Remission (DAS28 [4/CRP]) Secondary · 30 weeks from the day of initial dose

Percentage of participants with a remission based on DAS28 (4/CRP) was presented along with the two-sided 95% confidence interval (exact method). For participants with available DAS28 (4/CRP) values both at baseline and study completion, the number and proportion of those who achieved remission (\<2.3) at both time points were calculated overall, as well as separately based on prior infliximab use before the initial dose of this drug.
