Secukinumab (AIN457) 150 mg

Participants assigned to secukinumab 150 mg were dosed weekly for five weeks, then once every four weeks up to and including Week 132. To maintain the blinding, patients received additional placebo injections at Weeks 17, 18 and 19. All doses of study treatment are administered by sub-cutaneous injections.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Secukinumab

Intervention Type BIOLOGICAL

Study treatment was provided in pre-filled 1 mL syringes.

Secukinumab (AIN457) 300 mg

Participants assigned to secukinumab 300 mg were dosed weekly for five weeks, then once every four weeks up to and including Week 132. To maintain the blinding, patients received additional placebo injections at Weeks 17, 18 and 19. All doses of study treatment are administered by sub-cutaneous injections.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Secukinumab

Intervention Type BIOLOGICAL

Study treatment was provided in pre-filled 1 mL syringes.

Placebo

Patients assigned to placebo were dosed weekly for five weeks, then at Week 8 and Week 12. At Week 16, placebo patients were randomized in a 1:1 ratio, to receive secukinumab either 150 mg or 300 mg and were dosed weekly for five weeks starting at Week 16, then once every four weeks up to and including Week 132. All doses of study treatment are administered by sub-cutaneous injections.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Subjects with chronic moderate to severe plaque type psoriasis for at least 6 months prior to randomization, including significant nail involvement, defined as Nail Psoriasis Severity Index (NAPSI) score ≥16 AND number of fingernails involved ≥4 AND Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) score ≥12 AND Body Surface Area (BSA) score ≥10%
* Candidates for systemic therapy, i.e. psoriasis inadequately controlled by topical treatment (including super potent topical corticosteroids) and/or phototherapy and/or previous systemic therapy

Exclusion Criteria

* Forms of psoriasis other than chronic plaque type psoriasis (e.g., pustular psoriasis, palmoplantar pustulosis, acrodermatitis of Hallopeau, erythrodermic and guttate psoriasis)
* Drug-induced psoriasis (e.g. new onset or current exacerbation from β-blockers, calcium channel inhibitors or lithium)
* Ongoing inflammatory skin diseases other than psoriasis or any other disease affecting the fingernails which may potentially confound the evaluation of study treatment effects
* Ongoing use of prohibited treatments (e.g. topical or systemic corticosteroids (CS), UV therapy). Washout periods do apply
* Prior exposure to secukinumab (AIN457) or any other biological drug directly targeting IL-17 or the IL-17 receptor
* Exposure to any investigational drugs within 4 weeks prior to study treatment initiation or within a period of 5 half-lives of the investigational treatment, whichever is longer
* History of hypersensitivity to constituents of the study treatment
