Summary

Mild psoriasis not only progresses to moderate-to-severe psoriasis but also precedes systemic inflammation that leads to psoriatic arthritis and cardiovascular comorbidities. By curing mild psoriasis with a short-term anti- interleukin (IL)-17A treatment, investigators may reduce the costs of treating psoriasis and associated medical conditions, including psoriatic arthritis, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes.

Secukinumab

Arms: Group 1 - Group 1 will receive Secukinumab at a dose of 300 mg with injections administered once weekly at baseline and at weeks 1, 2, 3, and 4 and then every 4 weeks for 6 months of period.
