Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To demonstrate the efficacy of secukinumab 75 or 150 mg at Week 24 is superior to placebo in patients with active PsA based on the proportion of patients achieving an ACR20 response.;Secondary Objective: -proportion of subjects achieving a PASI75 response in the subgroup of subjects who have =3% skin involvement with psoriasis -proportion of subjects achieving a PASI90 response in the subgroup og subjects who have =3% skin involvement with psoriasis -change from baseline in DAS28-CRP for secukinumab 75 or 150mg -change from baseline in SF36-PCS for secukinumab 75 or 150mg -change from baseline in HAQ-DI for secukinumab 75 or 150mg -proportion of subjects achieving ACR50 response on secukinumab 75 or 150mg vs. placebo -Change from baseline for joint/bone structural damage for secukinumab 75 and 150mg -proportion of subjects with dactylitis in the subset of subjects who have dactylitis at baseline -proportion of subjects with enthesitis in the subset of subjects who have enthesitis at baseline -Change from baseline for joint/bone structural damage for secukinumab 75 or 150mg -Overall safety and tolerability of each secukinumab regimen compared to placebo;Primary end point(s): ACR 20;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Week 24 | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): 1) PASI75 (in the subgroup of subjects who have =3% skin involvement with psoriasis) 2) PASI90 (in the subgroup of subjects who have =3% skin involvement with psoriasis) 3) DAS28-CRP (for secukinumab 75 or 150mg) 4) SF36-PCS (for secukinumab 75 or 150mg) 5) HAQ-DI (for secukinumab 75 or 150mg) 6) ACR50 response on secukinumab 75 or 150mg vs.placebo 7) Change from baseline for joint/bone structural damage (van der Heijde modified total Sharp score) for secukinumab 75 and 150mg (pooled doses) 8) Proportion of patients with dactylitis in the subset of subjects who have dactylitis at baseline 9) Proportion of patients with enthesitis in the subset of subjects who have enthesitis at baseline 10) Change from baseline for join/bone structural damage (van der Heijde modified total Sharp score) for secukinumab 75 or 150mg;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Week 24 | — |
