Study Groups

AIN457

All subjects were assigned to receive 150 mg secukinumab (AIN457) by subcutaneous injections. AIN457 was administered at baseline, weeks 1, 2, 3, 4. Prior to receiving the week 8 dose, all subjects were assigned to the following treatment group based on clinical components of their Clinical Global Impression (CGI) evaluation at week 8.

* "No up-titration" group received 1 injection of 150 mg AIN457 at weeks 8, 12, and each visit from week 16 until week 48.
* "Up-titration" group received 2 injections of 150 mg AIN457 at weeks 8, 9, 12 and each visit from week 16 until week 48.

Subjects who received 150 mg AIN457 can be up-titrated to 300 mg AIN 457 at any visit starting at week 16 based on clinical components of their CGI evaluation and investigator's discretion.
