Summary

To assess the efficacy of tofacitinib monotherapy or tofacitinib with methotrexate as compared to adalimumab with methotrexate. To compare the efficacy of tofacitinib monotherapy compared to tofacitinib combined with methotrexate. To compare effects on all health outcomes measures in the study. To evaluate the safety and tolerability of tofacitinib and adalimumab. To evaluate the safety of the zoster vaccine given prior to the initiation of tofacitinb or adalimumab.
