Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To demonstrate that the efficacy of i.v. secukinumab at Week 16 is superior to placebo in subjects with active psoriatic arthritis (PsA) based on the proportion of patients achieving an American College of Rheumatology 50 (ACR50) response.;Secondary Objective: -To demonstrate that the efficacy of i.v. secukinumab at Week 16 is superior to placebo based on: the proportion of subjects achieving: 1- an ACR20 response 2- minimal disease activity (MDA) 5/7 3- a PASI90 response in the group of subjects who have >=3% skin involvement with psoriasis. the improvement from baseline for the: 4- PASDAS 5- HAQ-DI 6- SF36-PCS 7- FACIT-fatigue 8- mNAPSI the proportion of subjects with resolution of: 9- dactylitis by the Leeds Dactylitis Index in the subset of subjects who have dactylitis at baseline 10- enthesitis by the Leeds Enthesitis Index in the subset of subjects who have enthesitis at baseline 11- Overall safety and tolerability of secukinumab compared to placebo as assessed by vital signs, clinical laboratory values and adverse events monitoring;Primary end point(s): American College of Rheumatology 50 (ACR50) response;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 16 weeks
