| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Percentage of Participants Who Achieved an American College of Rheumatology (ACR) 20 Response at Week 24 | At Week 24 | ACR 20 response: \>=20% improvement from baseline (bl) in both swollen (66 joints), tender (68 joints) joint count, \>=20% improvement from bl in 3 of 5 assessments: patient's assessment of pain using visual analog scale (VAS; 0-100mm, 0=no pain, 100=worst possible pain), patient's global assessment of disease activity (arthritis, VAS; 0-100mm, 0=excellent, 100=poor), physician's global assessment of disease activity (VAS; 0-100mm, 0=no arthritis activity,100=extremely active arthritis), HAQ-DI (questionnaire assessing 8 functional areas; 0-3, 0=no difficulty, 3=inability to perform task in area), and CRP. Natural Disaster (ND)-site inaccessible due to COVID-19. Major Disruption (MD)-disruption involving Ukraine and neighboring countries/territories. Intercurrent event (ICE) handling: Composite-discontinue study drug not due to ND/MD, initiate/increase DMARD/oral corticosteroid, initiate prohibited PsA treatment; Hypothetical-discontinue/severe noncompliance of study drug due to ND/MD. |
| Secondary | Change From Baseline in Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA) Modified Van Der Heijde-Sharp (vdH-S) Total Score at Week 24 | Baseline (after first administration of study drug) and Week 24 | Modified vdH-S score was sum of erosion score (hand, feet) and joint space narrowing (JSN) score (hand, feet). Joint erosion score was total erosion severity in 40 joints of 2 hands and 12 joints of 2 feet, maximum erosion score=320. Each hand joint was scored on 0 to 5 with 0 =no erosion, 5 =complete collapse of bone. Foot joint was scored on 0 to 10, 0 =no erosion, 10 =complete collapse of bone. JSN score was total JSN score in same 52 joints, each joint scored on 0 to 4 with 0 indicating no JSN, and 4 indicating absence of joint space, maximum JSN score=208. Maximum modified vdH-S score=528. Higher score =severe structural destruction and complete loss of joint spaces. Natural Disaster (ND)-site inaccessible due to COVID-19. Major Disruption (MD)-disruption involving Ukraine and neighboring countries/territories. Intercurrent event (ICE) handling: Hypothetical-discontinue/severe noncompliance of study drug due to ND/MD |

| PRIMARY | Percentage of Participants Who Achieved an American College of Rheumatology (ACR) 20 Response at Week 24 | At Week 24 | Analysis population is Modified FAS (mFAS). Participants who achieved ACR 20 response at Week 24 and did not meet any Composite Strategy ICEs before Week 24 were considered as responders. Participants who met any Composite Strategy ICEs before Week 24 were considered non-responders. Participants who met Hypothetical Strategy ICEs, or missed data due to ND/MD, had affected visits imputed using multiple imputation. Other missing data were imputed as non-responders. | percentage of participants | NUMBER |
| SECONDARY | Change From Baseline in Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA) Modified Van Der Heijde-Sharp (vdH-S) Total Score at Week 24 | Baseline (after first administration of study drug) and Week 24 | Modified full analysis set included all participants who were randomized, excluding participants from Ukrainian sites rendered unable to support key study operations due to major disruption. Participants who met Hypothetical Strategy ICEs had affected visits imputed using multiple imputation. Missing data were also imputed using multiple imputation. | Score on a scale | LEAST_SQUARES_MEAN |
