  1. Functional disability was assessed by HAQ-DI at endpoint. Complete sustained remission was defined as maintain rate of 100%. Nearly sustained remission was defined as maintain rate of 50% and more. Incomplete sustained remission was defined as maintain rate of less than 50%. None remission was defined as maintain rate of 0%. Functional remission was defined as HAQ-DI < 0.5
