There were two patients in the ORAL Scan study and two patients in the ORAL Start study who had no poor prognostic factors at baseline

CCP cyclic citrullinated peptide, CRP C-reactive protein, DAS28-4(ESR) Disease Activity Score in 28 joints (erythrocyte sedimentation rate), mTSS van der Heijde modified total Sharp score, RF rheumatoid factor

aMedian baseline mTSS value was 13.1 for ORAL Scan and 4.0 for ORAL Start
