  Description
ETN/MTX Etanercept (ETN) was administered subcutaneous (SC) bi-weekly (BIW) (eg, on Monday and Thursday, Tuesday and Friday, or Wednesday and Saturday). Each dose of ETN was administered as 1 SC injection.
DMARD/MTX Methotrexate (MTX) was taken orally once weekly on the same day of the week (as a single dose or 2 divided doses on the same day) at the same dose subjects were taking at the time of screening. The dose and administration of usual disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (DMARD) therapy followed the approved local label or recommendations. Subjects took commercially available MTX and usual DMARD therapy.
