Simponi - New Rheumatoid Arthritis Drug | Arthritis Information

I just saw a commercial on tv for a RA drug called Simponi.   It seems so cool.  Just one injection once a month. 

Is it new or has it been around for a long time, and I just now heard of it?
 
Has anyone tried it and how's it been working for you?
