Title: An Open-label Randomized Phase 1 Study to Investigate the Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Subcutaneous and Intravenous Administrations of Golimumab to Subjects With Rheumatoid Arthritis
Brief Summary: This is a Phase 1, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic study of intravenous and subcutaneous administered golimumab in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.


Options:
A: Inclusion Criteria:

* Have a diagnosis of RA for at least 3 months prior to screening
* Have no history of latent or active tuberculosis (TB) and test negative for TB

Exclusion Criteria:

* Have inflammatory diseases other than RA
* Have been treated with disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs)/systemic immunosuppressives other than methotrexate (MTX), sulfasalazine, or hydroxychloroquine during the 4 weeks prior to the first administration of study agent
* Have received intramuscular (IM), IV, or intra-articular corticosteroids within 4 weeks of study agent administration
* Have a known hypersensitivity to human Ig proteins
* Have received infliximab, golimumab, adalimumab or abatacept within 3 months, or etanercept or anakinra within 1 month prior to the first administration of study agent
* Have received alefacept, efalizumab, natalizumab, rituximab, or any B-cell-depleting agent
* Have been treated with any other biologics or investigational drugs, within 5 half-lives of that drug prior to the first administration of study agent
* Have a history of latent or active granulomatous infection, including tuberculosis (TB), histoplasmosis, or coccidioidomycosis, prior to screening
* Have had a Bacille Calmette-Guerin (BCG) vaccination within 12 months of screening
* Have had a serious infection (eg, hepatitis, pneumonia, pyelonephritis, or sepsis)
B: Inclusion Criteria:

* Disease activity as defined by a Disease Activity Score 28-C-Reactive Protein (CRP) \>3.2 or \>6 swollen and ≥6 tender joints and CRP greater than the upper limit of normal
* At least 1 erosion in hands/wrists or positive anticyclic citrullinated peptides or rheumatoid factor
* Clinically detectable synovitis of at least 1 wrist/ankle at screening and baseline
* Participants must have been treated with methotrexate, on a weekly dose of at least 15 mg or a maximum tolerated dose (such as, 10 mg weekly) for at least 3 months before screening. Dose of methotrexate must be stable for at least 28 days prior to the first study dose (Day 1)
C: Inclusion Criteria:

* Subjects with a diagnosis of adult-onset Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) of at least 3 months duration but no longer than 15 years
* Subjects with an active adult Rheumatoid Arthritis disease
* Subjects who have been on Disease-Modifying Anti-Rheumatic Drug (DMARD) therapy for at least 12 weeks

Exclusion Criteria:

* Subject must not have a secondary, non-inflammatory type of musculoskeletal condition (eg, osteoarthritis or fibromyalgia) that in the investigator's opinion is symptomatic enough to interfere with evaluation of the effect of study drug on the subject's primary diagnosis of Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA)
* Subject must not have a diagnosis of any other inflammatory arthritis (eg, psoriatic arthritis or ankylosing spondylitis)
* Subject must not have a history of an infected joint prosthesis at any time with prosthesis still in situ
* Subject must not have received more than 1 biological agent
* Subject must not have a history of lymphoproliferative disorder including lymphoma or signs and symptoms suggestive of lymphoproliferative disease at any time
* Subject with known Tuberculosis (TB) disease, high risk of acquiring TB infection or latent TB infection
* Subject must not have a known hypersensitivity to any components of the investigational medicinal product
* Subject must not have contraindications for Magnetic Resonance Image (MRI) and contrast agent
* Subject must not have any other condition which, in the investigator's judgement, would make them unsuitable for inclusion in the study
D: Inclusion Criteria:

* Have a diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) (according to the revised 1987 criteria of the ACR) for at least 3 months prior to first administration of study agent
* Are methotrexate (MTX)-naïve (ie, have not received more than 3 weekly doses of MTX for RA at any time)
* Have active RA as defined by persistent disease activity with at least 4 swollen and 4 tender joints, at the time of screening and baseline, and at least 2 of the following 4 criteria: a) C-reactive protein (CRP) \>=1.5 mg/dL at screening or erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) by Westergren method of \>= 28 mm in the first hour at screening or baseline, b)Morning stiffness of \>= 30 minutes at screening and baseline, c)Bone erosion by x-ray and/or MRI prior to first administration of study agent, d)Anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti-CCP) antibody-positive or rheumatoid factor (RF) positive at screening
* If using oral corticosteroids, must be on a stable dose equivalent to \<= 10 mg of prednisone/day for at least 2 weeks prior to first administration of study agent.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Can not have inflammatory diseases other than RA that might confound the evaluation of the benefit of golimumab therapy
* No treatment with disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs)/systemic immunosuppressives during the 4 weeks prior to the first administration of study agent
* No prior treatment with biologic anti-TNF drugs (infliximab, etanercept, adalimumab)
* No history of, or ongoing, chronic or recurrent infectious disease
* No serious infection within 2 months prior to first administration of study agent.
