Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Other - Adalimumab
Other interventions - Placebo

Active comparator: Continue adalimumab - Patients randomized to this arm will continue adalimumab at their current dose (either 20mg/0.2mL or 40mg/0.4mL) administered subcutaneously every other week.

Placebo comparator: Stop adalimumab - Patients randomized to this arm will receive a volume-matched placebo (0.8mL) administered subcutaneously every other week.


Treatment: Other: Adalimumab
Adalimumab is a fully human monoclonal anti-tumor necrosis factor alpha antibody, a biologic, immunomodulatory drug. Adalimumab 20mg/0.8mL and 40mg/0.8mL is a clear, colorless solution provided in a pre-filled syringe for subcutaneous injection. The formulation is adalimumab, mannitol, polysorbate 80, and water for injection Each pre-filled syringe has a fixed 29-gauge thin wall and ½ inch needle with black protective cover and is intended for a single dose to a single patient.

Other interventions: Placebo
The placebo solution is a clear, colorless solution provided in a single-use, pre-filled syringe for subcutaneous injection. The placebo is designed to match the characteristics of the citrate-free adalimumab during injection.
