Summary
Brief summary
This was a randomized, double-blind, active controlled, multicenter, parallel-group study
evaluating secukinumab monotherapy and adalimumab monotherapy in approximately 850 patients
with active psoriatic arthritis (PsA) who are naïve to biologic therapy and are intolerant or
having inadequate response to conventional disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (also known
as non-biologic DMARDs).
