Brief summary: This randomized,controlled, multicenter, 2-arm, parallel-group, double-blind, prospective, Phase 1 study is designed to demonstrate comparable pharmacokinetics in terms of AUC0-last and Cmax (after second infusion) between CT-P10 and MabThera in patients with active RA concomitantly treated with MTX during the Core Study Period.


Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

1. Patient has a diagnosis of RA according to the revised 1987 ACR classification criteria (Arnett et al 1987) for at least 6 months prior to randomization.
2. Patient has active disease as defined by the presence of 6 or more swollen joints (of 66 assessed) and 6 or more tender joints (of 68 assessed), and serum CRP ≥1.5 mg/dL or an ESR ≥28 mm/hour.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Patient is unresponsive or intolerable to more than 2 biologic agents.
2. Patient has allergies or hypersensitivity to murine, chimeric, human, or humanized proteins.
3. Patient has current or past history of chronic infection with hepatitis B, hepatitis C, or infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1 or -2 or who has a positive result to the screening test for these infections.

Primary outcomes:
measure: PK in terms of Cmax
timeFrame: Up to Week 24
