Cohort 1: GDC-0853 Low Dose + Adalimumab Placebo
Participants of Cohort 1 received GDC-0853 low dose, orally once daily along with placebo matched to adalimumab, subcutaneously Q2W starting on Day 1 for 12 weeks. Participants remained on a stable background therapy of MTX 15-25 mg/week (oral or parenteral; for participants entering the trial on MTX doses 15 mg/week, doses as low as 7.5 mg/week are allowed only if there was clear documentation in the medical record that higher doses were not tolerated or that the dose of MTX is the highest acceptable dose based on local clinical practice guidelines) and folic acid of at least 5 mg total dose weekly (or equivalent) as per investigators discretion.
Cohort 1: GDC-0853 Mid Dose + Adalimumab Placebo

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Days 7, 14, 28, 56, and 84

Population: Intent-to-Treat (ITT) All randomized participants who received any part of an infusion of study medication were included in the ITT analysis. Number of participants for whom data were collected is indicated for each time point.

The DAS28 score is a measure of the patient's disease activity calculated using the tender joint count (TJC) \[28 joints\], swollen joint count (SJC) \[28 joints\], patient's global assessment of disease activity \[visual analog scale: 0=no disease activity to 100=maximum disease activity\] and the erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) for a total possible score of 0 to approximately 10. Scores below 2.6 indicate best disease control and scores above 5.1 indicate worse disease control. DAS28 Remission is defined as a DAS28 score \< 2.6.

Population: Intent-to-Treat (ITT) All randomized participants who received any part of an infusion of study medication were included in the ITT analysis. Number of participants for whom data were collected is indicated for each time point.

The DAS28 score is a measure of the patient's disease activity calculated using the tender joint count (TJC) \[28 joints\], swollen joint count (SJC) \[28 joints\], patient's global assessment of disease activity \[visual analog scale: 0=no disease activity to 100=maximum disease activity\] and the erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) for a total possible score of 0 to approximately 10. Scores below 2.6 indicate best disease control and scores above 5.1 indicate worse disease control. DAS28 Remission is defined as a DAS28 score \< 2.6

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline, Days 7, 14, 28, 56 and 84

Population: Intent-to-Treat (ITT) All randomized participants who received any part of an infusion of study medication were included in the ITT analysis. Number of participants for whom data were collected is indicated for each time point.

CDAI was derived as the sum of the following: tender joint count (TJC), swollen joint count (SJC), participant global assessment (PGA) of disease activity, and physician assessment of disease activity. TJC and SJC were taken as the number of tender and swollen joints, respectively, out of 28 assessed joints. PGA and physician assessment of disease activity were scored 0-100 millimeters (mm) and rounded to the nearest centimeter (cm) on a visual analog scale (VAS), where higher scores indicate greater perceived disease activity. The total CDAI score range was 0-76, where higher scores indicate increased disease activity. Change from baseline at a particular time point was calculated among patients with data available at both baseline and the time point of interest. Negative values indicate improvement/reduction in RA disease activity.

Timeframe: Baseline, Days 7, 14, 28, 56 and 84

Population: Intent-to-Treat (ITT) All randomized participants who received any part of an infusion of study medication were included in the ITT analysis. Number of participants for whom data were collected is indicated for each time point.

Simplified Disease Activity Index (SDAI) is the numerical sum of five outcome parameters: TJC and SJC (based on a 28-joint assessment), PtGA and PhGA (based on 0-10 cm VAS, where 0 = no disease activity and 10 = worst disease activity), and CRP. SDAI total score ranges from 0 (no disease activity) to 86 (maximal disease activity), where higher scores represents higher disease activity. The SDAI =\< 3.3 indicates disease remission, \> 3.4 to 11 indicates low disease activity, \> 11 to 26 indicates moderate disease activity, and \> 26 indicates high disease activity

The 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36v2) is a questionnaire used to assess functional health and well-being and consists of eight domains: Physical Functioning, Role-Physical, Bodily Pain, General Health, Vitality, Social Functioning, Role-Emotional and Mental Health. The SF-36v2 is summarized into Physical Component Summary (PCS) and Mental Component Summary (MCS) scores. The PCS and MCS scores range from 0 to 100, with 0=worst score (or quality of life) and 100=best score. A positive change from baseline indicates improvement.

The FACIT-Fatigue Scale consists of 13 items designed to measure the degree of fatigue experienced by the patient in the previous 7 days. For each question, there are five possible responses: 0 (not at all), 1 (a little bit), 2 (somewhat), 3 (quite a bit), 4 (very much). A total fatigue score is calculated by summing all items, and possible total scores range from 0 (maximum fatigue) to 52 (no fatigue). A positive change from baseline indicates an improvement in the patient's fatigue (less fatigue).

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Days 7, 14, 28, 56, and 84

Population: Intent-to-Treat (ITT) All randomized participants who received any part of an infusion of study medication were included in the ITT analysis. Number of participants for whom data were collected is indicated for each time point.

Participant-assessed arthritis pain was scored on a 100-mm VAS, where the distance from 0 mm represented the participant's self evaluation of arthritis pain (0 mm=none; 100 mm=very severe). Change from baseline at a particular time point was calculated among patients with data available at both baseline and the time point of interest, where negative change indicated a decrease in participant-assessed arthritis pain.

Timeframe: Days 7, 14, 28, 56, and 84

Population: Intent-to-Treat (ITT) All randomized participants who received any part of an infusion of study medication were included in the ITT analysis. Number of participants for whom data were collected is indicated for each time point.

The Stanford Health Assessment Questionnaire disability index is a patient-reported outcome used to assess difficulty in performing activities of daily living. It consists of 20 questions referring to eight domains: dressing/grooming, arising, eating, walking, hygiene, reach, grip and common daily activities. To respond to each question, a four-level response with higher scores showing larger functional limitations, was chosen. Scoring is as follows with respect to performance of participant's everyday activities: 0 (equals)=without difficulties; 1= with some difficulties; 2=with great difficulties; and 3=unable to perform these actions at all. The composite HAQ-DI score is the mean of the eight domain scores and the score ranges from 0 (no functional impairment) to 3 (maximum functional impairment). A negative change from baseline indicates improvement.

Cohort 1: GDC-0853 Low Dose + Adalimumab Placebo
n=40 participants at risk
Participants of Cohort 1 received GDC-0853 low dose, orally once daily along with placebo matched to adalimumab, subcutaneously Q2W starting on Day 1 for 12 weeks. Participants remained on a stable background therapy of MTX 15-25 mg/week (oral or parenteral; for participants entering the trial on MTX doses 15 mg/week, doses as low as 7.5 mg/week are allowed only if there was clear documentation in the medical record that higher doses were not tolerated or that the dose of MTX is the highest acceptable dose based on local clinical practice guidelines) and folic acid of at least 5 mg total dose weekly (or equivalent) as per investigators discretion.
Cohort 1: GDC-0853 Mid Dose + Adalimumab Placebo
n=109 participants at risk
Participants of Cohort 1 received GDC-0853 mid dose, orally twice daily along with placebo matched to adalimumab, subcutaneously Q2W starting on Day 1 for 12 weeks. Participants remained on a stable background therapy of MTX 15-25 mg/week (oral or parenteral; for participants entering the trial on MTX doses 15 mg/week, doses as low as 7.5 mg/week were allowed only if there was clear documentation in the medical record that higher doses were not tolerated or that the dose of MTX is the highest acceptable dose based on local clinical practice guidelines) and folic acid of at least 5 mg total dose weekly (or equivalent) as per investigators discretion.
Cohort 1: GDC-0853 High Dose + Adalimumab Placebo
n=110 participants at risk
Participants of Cohort 1 received GDC-0853 high dose, orally once daily along with placebo matched to adalimumab, subcutaneously every 2 weeks (Q2W) starting on Day 1 for 12 weeks. Participants remained on a stable background therapy of MTX 15-25 milligrams per week (mg/week) (oral or parenteral; for participants entering the trial on MTX doses 15 mg/week, doses as low as 7.5 mg/week were allowed only if there was clear documentation in the medical record that higher doses were not tolerated or that the dose of MTX is the highest acceptable dose based on local clinical practice guidelines) and folic acid of at least 5 mg total dose weekly (or equivalent) as per investigators discretion.
