Summary

This was an extension study of secukinumab prefilled syringes in subjects with moderate to severe chronic plaque-type psoriasis completing preceding psoriasis phase III studies with secukinumab. Subjects on secukinumab at the end of treatment period in phase III studies (e.g., ongoing CAIN457A2302 and CAIN457A2303 and potentially other secukinumab phase III studies) were eligible to join this extension study. This extension study was planned to collect an additional 2 years of long-term efficacy, safety, and tolerability data of secukinumab in either continuous or interrupted therapy (randomized withdrawal period) in subjects showing at least partial response to secukinumab and completing treatment period on secukinumab in previous phase III studies. In this extension study, the prefilled syringe (PFS) liquid formulation of secukinumab were used.

Conditions

  • Moderate to Severe Plaque-type Psoriasis

Interventions

DRUG

Secukinumab (AIN457)

Secukinumab is a new type of psoriasis medication called a human monoclonal antibody. Monoclonal antibodies are proteins that recognize and bind to unique proteins that your body produces. Secukinumab binds and reduces the activity of a cytokine (a "messenger" protein in the body) called Interleukin 17 (IL-17). IL-17 is believed to be partly responsible for inflammation (pain, swelling, redness). Researchers believe that IL-17 causes symptoms of plaque-type psoriasis like plaques and scales. A product that targets IL-17 therefore may help to relieve these symptoms and conditions.
