Timeline
Interventions
Etanercept will be given eight doses of study drug over a 4-week period. The initial dose of etanercept will be administered intravenously on Day 0, with subsequent doses administered subcutaneously (SQ). Dosing will be administered twice weekly over 4 consecutive weeks. Additionally, patients in both arms will receive corticosteroids (2 mg/kg/day) Day 0 through Day 7, with subsequent taper as clinically indicated.
Patients will receive a total of eight doses of placebo over a 4-week period. The initial dose of placebo will be administered intravenously on Day 0, with subsequent doses administered subcutaneously (SQ). Dosing will be administered twice weekly over 4 consecutive weeks. The placebo will be the inert diluent used for the etanercept formulation. Additionally, patients in both arms will receive corticosteroids (2 mg/kg/day) Day 0 through Day 7, with subsequent taper as clinically indicated.
