E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
To demonstrate that early treatment with secukinumab 300 mg s.c. is superior to treatment with nb-UVB in patients with new-onset moderate to severe plaque psoriasis with respect to patients achieving PASI 90 response at Week 52 |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
To evaluate the superiority of early treatment with secukinumab vs nb-UVB based on the proportion of patients who achieve at least PASI 90 at Week 104.
Additional secondary objective
To evaluate the effects of early treatment with secukinumab (Arm A1) compared with nb UVB (Arm B1) based on the proportion of all randomized patients who achieve at least investigator's global assessment (IGA mod 2011) of 0 or 1 at Week 52 and at Week 104. |
