A Randomized, Head-to-Head, Single-Blinded Study to Assess Changes in the Immune Profile in Response to Treatment With Subcutaneous Abatacept in Combination With Methotrexate Versus Subcutaneous Adalimumab in Combination With Methotrexate in Adults With Early Rheumatoid Arthritis Who Are Naive to Biologic Disease-Modifying Antirheumatic Drugs
The purpose of this study is to examine changes in immune cells and proteins in response to
treatment with two approved therapies for Rheumatoid arthritis (RA), abatacept versus
adalimumab, both given in combination with methotrexate.
