Recruitment Details
Key information relevant to the recruitment process for the overall study, such as dates of the recruitment period and locations
Subjects were enrolled at 31 sites between 19 September 2002 and 13 January 2005.

Pre-Assignment Details
Significant events and approaches for the overall study following participant enrollment, but prior to group assignment
A total of 171 participants entered the Open-Label Lead-In (OL-LI) phase and received adalimumab. Of these 171 participants, 160 participants completed the OL-LI phase, and 133 participants entered the 32-week Double-Blind Phase (75 in the MTX stratum; 58 in the non-MTX stratum) and were randomized to adalimumab or placebo.

Reporting Groups
  Description
Double-Blind Adalimumab + MTX Subjects in the methotrexate (MTX) stratum, who had an inadequate response to MTX and were adalimumab responders during the Open-Label Lead-In (OL-LI) phase, received adalimumab (24 mg/square meter of body surface area [BSA], up to a maximum of 40 mg total body dose administered subcutaneously every other week) plus concomitant MTX treatment during the Double-Blind Phase of the study. MTX-treated inadequate responders must have had active disease on MTX treatment for at least 3 months prior to screening.
Double-Blind Placebo + MTX

Subjects in the methotrexate (MTX) stratum, who had an inadequate response to MTX and were adalimumab responders during the Open-Label Lead-In (OL-LI) phase, received placebo (24 mg/square meter of body surface area [BSA], up to a maximum of 40 mg total body dose administered subcutaneously every other week) plus concomitant MTX treatment during the Double-Blind Phase of the study.

MTX-treated inadequate responders must have had active disease on MTX treatment for at least 3 months prior to screening.

Double-Blind Adalimumab Subjects in the non-methotrexate (MTX) stratum who were either naïve to MTX or withdrawn from MTX at least 2 weeks prior to study drug administration, and were adalimumab responders during the OL-LI phase, received adalimumab (24 mg/square meter of body surface area [BSA], up to a maximum of 40 mg total body dose administered subcutaneously every other week), but no concomitant MTX treatment, during the Double-Blind Phase of the study.
Double-Blind Placebo Subjects in the non-methotrexate (MTX) stratum who were either naïve to MTX or withdrawn from MTX at least 2 weeks prior to study drug administration, and were adalimumab responders during the OL-LI phase, received placebo (24 mg/square meter of body surface area [BSA], up to a maximum of 40 mg total body dose, administered subcutaneously every other week), but no concomitant MTX treatment, during the Double-Blind Phase of the study.
Open-Label Extension BSA Adalimumab + MTX Subjects in the methotrexate (MTX) stratum received subcutaneous injections of 24 mg adalimumab per square meter of body surface area (BSA) up to a maximum of 40 mg total body dose every other week (eow) concomitantly with MTX treatment during the Open-Label Extension BSA Phase of the study.
Open-Label Extension BSA Adalimumab Subjects in the non-methotrexate (MTX) stratum received adalimumab (24 mg/square meter of body surface area [BSA], up to a maximum of 40 mg total body dose SC eow) without concomitant MTX treatment during the Open-Label Extension BSA Phase.
Open-Label Extension FD Adalimumab + MTX Subjects in the methotrexate (MTX) stratum received adalimumab concomitantly with MTX treatment during the Open-Label Extension (OLE) Fixed Dose (FD) Phase of the study in which only body weight (not BSA) determined dosing. Subjects weighing less than 30 kg were dosed with 20 mg of adalimumab SC eow, and subjects weighing 30 kg or more were dosed with 40 mg of adalimumab SC eow.
Open-Label Extension FD Adalimumab Subjects in the non-methotrexate (MTX) stratum received adalimumab without concomitant MTX treatment during the Open-Label Extension (OLE) Fixed Dose (FD) Phase of the study in which body weight (not BSA) determined dosing. Subjects weighing less than 30 kg were dosed with 20 mg of adalimumab SC eow, and subjects weighing 30 kg or more were dosed with 40 mg of adalimumab SC eow.
