Eligibility Criteria:
Inclusion Criteria:
* Had a diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis using American College of Rheumatology criteria of at least 6 months duration and less than or equal to 3 years.
* A female subject of childbearing potential who is sexually active must agree to use adequate contraception, and must be neither pregnant nor lactating from Screening and throughout the duration of the study.
* Had a physical examination that, in the investigator's opinion, reveals no clinically significant abnormalities (other than rheumatoid arthritis), at the Screening Visit.
* Had clinical laboratory test results that are normal or, if abnormal, are not clinically significant in the investigator's opinion, at the Screening and Baseline Visits.
* Had a 12-lead electrocardiogram that is normal during the Screening Period, or, if abnormal, is not clinically significant in the opinion of the investigator.
* Had a chest x-ray within 3 months prior to or during the Pretreatment Period that, in the opinion of the investigator, is free of clinically significant findings.
* Had a negative purified protein derivative skin test for tuberculosis (less than or equal to 5 mm in duration) at screening and a negative tuberculosis screening history.
* Was receiving oral or parenteral methotrexate for at least 6 months prior to the Baseline Visit, and must be on a stable dose of methotrexate for at least 8 weeks prior to the Baseline Visit.
* At the Screening and Baseline Visits, the subject must have at least 6 swollen and 9 tender/painful joints using the 66/68 joint count scale.
* At the Screening Visit, the subject must have a C - reactive protein of at least 1.2 mg/dL or an erythrocyte sedimentation rate of at least 28 mm/hr.
* If taking a systemic corticosteroid, the maintenance dose of prednisone, or its equivalent, must be stable for at least 4 weeks prior to the Baseline Visit, may not exceed 10 mg/day and the subject should continue on that stable dose throughout the study.
* If taking a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, the maintenance dose of the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug must be stable for at least 4 weeks prior to the Baseline Visit, and should continue on that stable dose throughout the trial.
* Had a forced expiratory volume in one second and a forced vital capacity greater than 80% of predicted at screening.
Exclusion Criteria:
* Had been diagnosed with any type of arthritis at age 16 or younger.
* Had achieved greater than or equal to 20% response improvement in rheumatoid arthritis signs and symptoms according to the American College of Rheumatology criteria during the placebo lead-in period.
* Had a history of a clinically significant illness, medical condition, or laboratory abnormality within 3 months prior to the Baseline Period that, in the investigator's opinion, would preclude the subject's participation in the study.
* Had a known history of human immunodeficiency virus infection.
* Had a known history of hepatitis B or C.
* Had uncontrolled hypertension.
* Had moderate or severe liver disease, as defined by one or more of the following at the Screening Visit:
* Aspartate or alanine transaminase greater than 1.2 times the upper limit of normal.
* Total bilirubin greater than 1.2 times the upper limit of normal (excluding subject's diagnosed with Gilbert's Disease).
* Alkaline phosphatase greater than 1.5 times the upper limit of normal.
* Had elevated serum creatinine level for age and gender at the Screening Visit.
* Had hemoglobin less than 9.0 mg/dL, white blood cell count of less than 3000/mm3 or a platelet count less than 100,000/mm3 at the Screening Visit.
* Had an American College of Rheumatology revised rheumatoid arthritis functional status of IV at the Screening Visit.
* Was required to take or intends to continue taking any disallowed medication, any prescription medication, herbal treatment or over-the counter medication that may interfere with evaluation of TAK-783, including:
* Disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs or biologic agents other than methotrexate in the 12 weeks prior to the Baseline Visit, including:
* Sulfasalazine
* Tetracycline
* Leflunomide (AravaÒ)
* Infliximab (RemicadeÒ)
* Etanercept (EnbrelÒ)
* Adalimumab (HumiraÒ)
* Anakinra (KineretÒ)
* Plaquenil in the 6 months prior to the Baseline Visit.
* The subject has ever received abatacept (OrenciaÒ) or rituximab (RituxanÒ).
* The subject has failed due to lack of efficacy with more than 2 disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (other than methotrexate).
* The subject has received any intra-articular, intramuscular, or intravenous corticosteroids within 4 weeks prior to the Baseline Visit.
* The subject has had any previous use of cyclophosphamide, chlorambucil, or other alkylating agent.
* Controlled-release oxycodone (OxyContinÒ) and other non-nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug long-acting analgesics.
* Aspirin and aspirin-containing combination products used for analgesia. (Aspirin less than or equal to 325 mg/day for cardiac prophylaxis is permitted.)
* Was at high risk of an opportunistic infection because of a compromised immune system, in the investigator's opinion, with the exception of subjects receiving chronic steroid treatment.
* Had a history of, or a current inflammatory condition with signs and symptoms that might confound the diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis (eg, connective tissue disease, systemic lupus erythematosis, psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, spondyloarthropathy).
* Had been diagnosed as having a secondary, non-inflammatory type of arthritis (eg, osteoarthritis or fibromyalgia) that, in the investigator's opinion, is symptomatic enough to interfere with the evaluation of the efficacy of the study medications on the subject's primary diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis.
* Had a history of drug abuse or a history of alcohol abuse within the past 2 years.
* Had a body mass index greater than 35 at Screening.
* Had a previous history of cancer, other than basal cell carcinoma, that has not been in remission for at least 5 years prior to the first dose of study drug.
* Had received any investigational compound within 30 days prior to Randomization.
* Had donated more than 400 mL of blood within the 90 days preceding the beginning of the study.
* Had a known hypersensitivity to TAK 783 or its constituents.
