Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Subjects Free of Inflammatory DiseaseExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
The first arm will be comprised of HCs who are deemed to be clinically free of inflammatory diseases, arthropathies, and/or arthroplasties and clinically free of joint pain for at least 28 days prior to the consent date.
Group II: Healthy Controls and RA Subjects on Stable TherapyExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
The second arm is comprised of \[1\] disease-free HCs and \[2\] clinically diagnosed RA subjects on stable treatment.
