Primary Outcome(s)
Primary end point(s): Proportion of subjects who are non-failures at Week 48. These subjects are still in Period 2 at study end, which means they have not fulfilled predefined failure criteria during the study.
Main Objective: To compare the effect on disease activity of the combination of ETN 50 mg QW plus methotrexate (MTX) to placebo plus MTX over 48 weeks in RA subjects who at study start are in remission or LDA state with combination therapy with ETN 50mg weekly plus MTX
Secondary Objective: 1. To compare the effect on disease activity of the combination of ETN 25 mg QW plus MTX to

a. combination of ETN 50 mg QW plus MTX
b. placebo plus MTX

over 48 weeks in RA subjects who at study start are in remission or LDA state with combination therapy with ETN 50mg weekly plus MTX.

2. To compare the change in modified Total Sharp Score (mTSS) over 48 weeks among the treatment groups.

3. To compare the change in MRI findings over 12 weeks among the treatment groups.
