Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The core and extension studies assessed the safety and efficacy of secukinumab when added to a background therapy in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis who are intolerant to or have had an inadequate response to anti-TNF-α agents. Patients received either secukinumab, placebo or abatacept (active comparator). The core study was completed. However, the extension study was prematurely terminated after the primary endpoint analysis of the core study at week 24 had demonstrated numerically higher efficacy for the active comparator abatacept compared to secukinumab.

AIN457 10mg/kg - 75 mg

Participants received AIN457 i.v. (10 mg/kg) at Baseline (BSL), Weeks 2 and 4 then AIN457 75 mg s.c. at Week 8 and injected every 4 weeks

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

AIN457

Intervention Type BIOLOGICAL

AIN457 (Secukinumab) is a human monoclonal antibody. Secukinumab binds and reduces the activity of Interleukin 17 (IL-17). AIN457 was given as i.v. (10mg/kg) at baseline, week 2 and week 4, and then s.c. (75 or 150mg) every 4 weeks starting at week 8.

AIN457 10mg/kg - 150 mg

Placebo

Participants received matching placebo to AIN457 until week 16 or week 24 based on responder status (\>= 20% reduction in tender and swollen joint count). Non-responders were switched to active treatment at week 16. Responders were switched to active treatment at week 24.

Placebo

Intervention Type BIOLOGICAL

Placebo was given as i.v. at baseline, week 2 and week 4, and then s.c. every 4 weeks starting at week 8.

Abatacept

Participants received abatacept (from 500 to 1000 mg i.v. based on weight). Participants who did not respond to abatacept at Week 16 were re-randomized 1:1 to AIN457 75mg or 150mg at week 24 (after an 8 week washout period).
