E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
To demonstrate the superiority of secukinumab in subjects with moderate to severe chronic plaque-type psoriasis in terms of both PASI 75 and IGA mod 2011 0 or 1 response (co-primary endpoints) at Week 12 compared to placebo. |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
•To demonstrate the superiority of secukinumab in terms of PASI 90 response at Week 12 compared to placebo.
•To assess the efficacy of secukinumab in maintaining PASI 75 response at Week 52 in subjects who were PASI 75 responders at Week 12 or IGA mod 2011 0 or 1 response at Week 52 in subjects who were IGA mod 2011 0 or 1 responders at Week 12.
•To assess the efficacy of secukinumab in terms of PASI score, IGA mod 2011 score, PASI 50/75/90/100 and IGA mod 2011 0 or 1 response over time up to Week 12 compared to placebo and over time up to Week 52
•To assess the efficacy of secukinumab in terms of time to PASI 75 response up to Week 12 compared to placebo.
•To investigate the clinical safety and tolerability of secukinumab compared to placebo.
•To assess the efficacy of secukinumab in treating psoriatic arthritis in subjects with this comorbidity at Baseline in terms of American College of Rheumatology (ACR) 20/50/70 response over time up to Week 52.
