Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to compare the proportion of patients with an infusion reaction in Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients treated with Golimumab Intravenous (IV) or Infliximab.
Detailed Description: This is a prospective, noninterventional (no treatment medication provided by the study), observational (study in which the investigators/ physicians observe the patients and measure their outcomes), multicenter (study conducted at multiple sites) study of Golimumab IV and Infliximab in RA patients. The study allows for an anticipated 2-year enrollment period and a 3-year study duration for each patient. No interventions will be given to patients as a part of this study. This study will be conducted in the US, at rheumatology-based clinical practices and will enroll adult RA patients who meet all entry criteria. The primary endpoint of this study is the proportion of patients with an infusion reaction through week 52. Patients will be enrolled in a 1:1 ratio to initiate treatment with either Golimumab IV or Infliximab. Patients' safety will be monitored throughout the study.
