| Primary | Change From Baseline in Disease Activity Score 28 - Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (DAS28-ESR) Score in the Full Analysis Set (FAS) | The DAS28 score is a measure of the participant's disease activity calculated using the tender joint count of 28 joints (TJC28), swollen joint count of 28 joints (SJC28), patient's global assessment of disease activity visual analog scale (PGA VAS) with 0=no disease activity to 100=maximum disease activity displayed on the 100-millimeter (mm) horizontal VAS and acute phase reactant (erythrocyte sedimentation rate [ESR] or C-reactive protein [CRP]) for a total possible score of 0 to 10. For this study ESR was used to calculate the DAS28 score. The index is calculated using the following formula: DAS28 = (0.56*√[TJC28]) + (0.28*√[SJC28]) + (0.70*ln[ESR]) + (0.014*VAS). Higher scores represent higher disease activity. A negative change from baseline indicates an improvement. | The FAS consisted of all participants included in the study who received at least one dose of subcutaneous tocilizumab.

| Secondary | Change From Baseline in Simplified Disease Activity Index (SDAI)/Clinical Disease Activity Index (CDAI) | SDAI is a similar index to DAS28 but has the advantage of not needing a complicated mathematical formula for its determination, but a simple arithmetical addition of TJC28 and SJC28, PGA VAS and Physician Global Assessment of disease activity VAS, and CRP concentration in mg/L. CDAI does not incorporate an acute response, therefore it can be used to evaluate disease activity in the absence of laboratory testing of CRP and ESR. VAS range for all assessments was 0=no disease activity to 100=maximum disease activity displayed on the 100-mm horizontal VAS.
