Title: A Phase III Multi-centre, Open-label, follow-on Study to CDP870-027, to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of Lyophilized CDP870 an Engineered Human Anti-TNF PEG Conjugate, as Additional Medication to Methotrexate, in the Treatment of Signs and Symptoms and Preventing Structural Damage in Patients With Active Rheumatoid Arthritis
Brief Summary: An open ended study in which patients who completed the double-blind study CDP870-027 \[NCT00152386\] are given Certolizumab Pegol (CZP) and assessed for signs and symptoms of Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA).


Options:
A: Inclusion Criteria:

Patients must have either failed to achieve American College of Rheumatology 20 % Response Criteria (ACR20) at Weeks 12 and 14 in C87027 \[NCT00152386\], or must have completed the entire Week 52 assessment of C87027 \[NCT00152386\] trial.

Exclusion Criteria:

* A diagnosis of any other inflammatory Arthritis (e.g. Psoriatic Arthritis or Ankylosing Spondylitis)
* A secondary, non-inflammatory type of Arthritis (e.g. Osteoarthritis or Fibromyalgia) that in the Investigator's opinion is symptomatic enough to interfere with evaluation of the effect of CDP870 on the patient's primary diagnosis of Rheumatoid Arthritis
* Any concomitant biological therapy
* Any experimental therapy, within or outside a clinical trial
B: Inclusion Criteria:

* adult patients at least 18 years of age with active RA for at least 3 months;
* patients of reproductive potential must be using reliable methods of contraception.

Exclusion Criteria:

* major surgery (including joint surgery) within 8 weeks before entering study or planned major surgery within 6 months after entering study;
* treatment with methotrexate (MTX) within 6 months of entering study;
* patients who have stopped previous MTX treatment due to toxicity or lack of response;
* women who are pregnant or breast-feeding.
C: Inclusion Criteria:

* Diagnosis of RA according to the American College of Rheumatology criteria for at least 3 months prior to screening
* Have active Rheumatoid Arthritis at the time of screening and at baseline, as defined by 6 or more swollen joints and 6 or more tender joints and additional laboratory criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

* Have other inflammatory diseases, including but not limited to ankylosing spondylitis, systemic lupus erythematosus, Lyme disease
* Received disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (\[DMARDs\] eg, D penicillamine, hydroxychloroquine, chloroquine, oral or parenteral gold, interleukin \[IL\]-1 receptor antagonist \[anakinra\], azathioprine, sulphasalazine, agents other than MTX) within 4 weeks prior to the first study dose
D: 1. Completed the entire 12 weeks of therapy in study 0881A3-311-EU, or completed at least 8 weeks of therapy and returned for the week 12 visit in study 0881A3-311-EU.
2. Negative serum β-HCG pregnancy test at baseline (all women of childbearing potential).
3. Sexually active women of childbearing potential had to use a medically acceptable form of contraception. Medically acceptable forms of contraception included oral contraceptives, injectable or implantable methods, intrauterine devices, or properly used barrier contraception. Additionally, the use of condoms was suggested as an adjunct to the methods previously addressed to protect against sexually transmitted diseases and to provide additional protection against accidental pregnancy.
4. Sexually active men had to agree to use a medically accepted form of contraception during the study.
5. Able to reconstitute and self-inject test article or have a designee who can do so.
6. Capable of understanding and willing to provide signed and dated written voluntary informed consent before any protocol-specific procedures were performed.
7. Able to store injectable test article at 2°C to 8°C.
