Title: A Randomized, Double-blind Study of Safety and Reduction in Signs and Symptoms During Treatment With Tocilizumab Versus Placebo, in Combination With Methotrexate, in Patients With Moderate to Severe Rheumatoid Arthritis
Brief Summary: This 3 arm study will compare the safety and efficacy, with regard to reduction of signs and symptoms, of tocilizumab versus placebo, both in combination with methotrexate (MTX). in patients with moderate to severe active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who currently have an inadequate response to MTX. Patients wil be randomized to receive tocilizumab 4mg/kg iv, tocilizumab 8mg/mg iv, or placebo iv, every 4 weeks; all patients will also receive methotrexate 10-25mg weekly. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months, and the target sample size is 500+ individuals.

Inclusion Criteria:

* Subjects who are considered methotrexate inadequate responders
* 10 or more swollen joints (66 joint count) and 12 or more tender joints (68 joint count)

Exclusion Criteria:

* Subjects who failed one or multiple anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) therapies
* Subjects who meet diagnostic criteria for any other rheumatic disease (e.g., lupus erythematous)
* Subjects with active vasculitis of a major organ system (except for subcutaneous rheumatoid nodules)
* Subjects with severe chronic or recurrent bacterial infections
* Subjects who have received treatment with rituximab

An Anti-TNF Failure Sub-study was initiated (recruited separately from Main study) using the same treatment as the Main study in order to assess the immunogenicity and safety in the Anti-TNF Failure population. The Sub-study terminated due to low recruitment and participants were permitted to roll into the LT Open Label Period.
B: Inclusion Criteria:

* adult patients at least 18 years of age with moderate to severe active RA for at least 6 months;
* inadequate response to a stable dose of MTX;
* 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 surgery within 6 months after entering study;
* prior treatment failure with an anti-tumor necrosis factor agent;
* women who are pregnant or breast-feeding.
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:

* adult patients at least 18 years of age with moderate to severe active RA for at least 6 months;
* inadequate response to a stable dose of MTX;
* 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 surgery within 6 months after entering study;
* prior treatment failure with an anti-tumor necrosis factor agent;
* women who are pregnant or breast-feeding.
