Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Drugs - Upadacitinib
Treatment: Other - Pneumococcal 13-valent conjugate vaccine (PCV-13)

Experimental: Upadacitinib - Participants received treatment with upadacitinib for up to 312 weeks. The starting dose was 6 mg twice a day (BID). Participants who did not achieve a 20% improvement from RCT Baseline in both Tender Joint Count (TJC) and Swollen Joint Count (SJC) at Week 6 or Week 12 were up-titrated to 12 mg BID. From January 2017 participants were transitioned to a once-daily (QD) regimen of upadacitinib, either 15 mg QD (participants who were taking 6 mg BID) or 30 mg QD (participants taking 12 mg BID). Starting with Protocol Amendment 5 participants receiving 30 mg QD upadacitinib had the option to decrease the dose to 15 mg QD at the investigator's discretion.

A subset of participants who opted-in to the vaccine substudy received a single-dose of 0.5 mL intramuscular injection of pneumococcal 13-valent conjugate vaccine (PCV-13).
