range of motion accompanied by either pain or tenderness)
- A history of intolerance or an unsatisfactory response to at least a 3 month
course of at least 1 DMARD at an adequate dose.

of having children must have a negative urine pregnancy test at screening and
baseline (day 1) before administration of investigational product.
5. Either the subject or an available adult must be capable (according to the
investigator’s judgment) of reconstituting and administering injections of SC
etanercept.
6. The parent or legally authorized representative/guardian of the subject must be
able to read and complete the protocol-specified efficacy assessments.

metabolic, immunologic, infectious, hepatic, renal condition, uncontrolled
diabetes mellitus or hypertension), or any serious disorder (eg, current or history
of alcohol or drug abuse, current or history of psychiatric disease) that, in the
investigator’s judgment, will substantially increase the risk associated with the
subject’s participation in and completion of the study, or could preclude
the evaluation of the subject’s response, or interfere with the subject’s ability to
give informed consent.

country-specific guidelines, must be performed during the screening visit for
subjects with no documentation of tuberculosis test results available within 12
weeks before the baseline visit.
