Study Summary

The purpose of this study was to provide 16-week efficacy, safety and tolerability data versus placebo to support the use of secukinumab 150 mg by subcutaneous (s.c.) self-administration with or without a loading regimen and maintenance dosing using pre-filled syringe (PFS) and to assess efficacy, safety and tolerability up to 2 years in subjects with active PsA despite current or previous NSAID or DMARD therapy

Primary Outcome

The ACR20 response is defined by at least 20% decrease in the swollen and tender joint count, and at least 20% improvement in 3 of the following 5 criteria: Health Assessment Questionnaire - Disability Index, pain score on a visual analog scale, patient global assessment of disease activity, physician global assessment of disease activity and acute phase reactant \[either erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) or high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP)\]. ACR20 is used to assess the efficacy
