Inclusion Criteria:
Exclusion Criteria:
Have temporarily interrupted the investigational product in the final study visit GEMENE001 and, according to the investigator's opinion, this represents an unacceptable risk to the patient whether this participates in the GEMENE002 study.
Simultaneous treatment with other investigational drug or participation in another clinical study that the investigator considers inadvisable.
Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
History of lack of response or loss of response to previous therapy with Etanercept in the GEMENE001 study.
Chronic antibiotic therapy, if the investigator considers this may affect the safety of the subject or the assessment of the study results.
Any previous or current serious medical conditions which had appeared during the study GEMENE001 that, in the opinion of the investigator, constitute a contraindication for the study treatment, as:
Administration of vaccines:
Presence of :
a. At the time of the inclusion i. Active infections. ii. Fever (≥38 °C) or active, chronic or recurrent infections that require treatment with antibiotics, antiviral, or anti-fungal drugs within 4 weeks prior to Screening Visit, or history of frequent recurrent infections unacceptable to the investigator's opinion.
iii. Non-healing infected skin ulcers. b. In the previous time: i. Background of recurrent bacterial, viral, fungal (excluding superficial infections or nail bed mycosis), mycobacterial or other severe infections within the last month previous to selection.
ii. Hospitalization for infection or Subjects who have received antibiotics intravenously within the last month or orally within the last 2 weeks.
iii. Subjects with herpes zoster in the last 2 months.
Past history of drug or alcohol abuse within the study GEMENE001.
Any condition that, in the investigator's opinion, would not allow compliance with the guidelines of the study by the patient.

| 72 weeks |
| ACR20 | ACR (American College of Rheumatology) 20 The percentage of patients who achieved ACR20 at Week 32 is the primary end point. Signs and symptoms are assessed with a composite rating scale of the ACR (American College of Rheumatology) that includes 7 variables:
| 20 and 72 Weeks |
| ACR50 | ACR50 is defined as the percentage of patients who achieve at least 50% improvement in both tender joint count and swollen joint count, and at least 50% improvement in at least 3 of the 5 other assessments. | 20 and 72 Weeks |
| ACR70 | ACR70 is defined as the percentage of patients who achieve at least 70% improvement in both tender joint count and swollen joint count, and at least 50% improvement in at least 3 of the 5 other assessments. | 20 and 72 Weeks |
| DAS (Disease activity state) | It will be measured using the DAS (Disease activity state) 28. DAS28 is a composite score that includes 4 variables:
| 20 and 72 Weeks |
| Change in modified van der Heijde Sharp score | The Sharp method is a composite X-ray scoring system used to assess structural (joint) disease progression in rheumatoid arthritis. The method evaluates both joint erosions (JE) and joint space narrowing (JSN) in bilateral hand and foot joints. The Sharp/van der Heijde method assesses erosions and joint space narrowing separately in the hands and feet, and has a range from 0 to 448. Thirty-two joints in the hands and 12 in the feet are scored for erosions, with a maximum score of five per joint in the hands and 10 per joint in the feet. Joint space narrowing is graded from 0 to 4 in 30 joints in the hands and in 12 joints in the feet. The principal score used in the analyses is the total score, which is the sum of the erosion score and the joint space narrowing score. | 20 and 72 Weeks |
| Physical function | Improvement in physical function is assessed by change from baseline in HAQ (Health Assessment Questionnaire).The HAQ-DI (disability index) is composed of 8 categories as follows: dressing and grooming, arising, eating, walking, hygiene, reach, grip and activities, for which there are at least 2 questions by category. The patient will be asked to score how difficult he/she feels it is to perform such activities using a 0 to 3 scoring (0=without any difficulty, 1=with some difficulty, 2=with much difficulty and 3=unable to do). If the patient is using assistance for any of these activities, scoring may be adjusted. For each category, the highest score given for one of the question is attributed to the category. The total score is the sum of all categories' scores divided by the number of answered categories (at least 3 categories should be answered) | 20 and 72 Weeks |
| Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy Fatigue scale (FACIT-Fatigue) | The FACIT-Fatigue is a 13-item questionnaire rated 0 to 4. The patient will be asked to answer to 13 questions rated 0 to 4 (0=not at all, 1=a little bit, 2=some what, 3=quite a bit, 4=very much | 20 and 72 Weeks |
