For each patient, the total duration of VAS pain score ≤10 or ≤20 mm (weeks) was defined as the sum of all time periods, where VAS score ≤threshold. Linear interpolation between study visits was used to determine the start and endpoints of these periods. For each patient, the percentage of time being ≤threshold was calculated by dividing the total duration of VAS pain score ≤10 or ≤20 mm by the time from first to last completion of VAS pain assessment.

*In FINCH 1, the efficacy data through week 52 were included for the filgotinib and adalimumab groups; the efficacy data through week 24 were included for the placebo group.

ADA, adalimumab; FIL100/200, filgotinib 100/200 mg; MTX, methotrexate; PBO, placebo; VAS, visual analogue scale.
