Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

PASI 75 Response After 12 Weeks of Treatment
12 weeks

Percentage of participants who achieve ≥ 75% reduction in PASI compared to baseline. A PASI (Psoriasis Area and Severity Index) score is a tool used to measure the severity and extent of psoriasis. The score ranges from 0 (no signs of psoriasis) to a theoretic maximum of 72. The intensity of redness, thickness and scaling of the psoriasis is assessed as none (0), mild (1), moderate (2), severe (3) or very severe (4).

IGA Mod 2011 0 or 1 Response After 12 Weeks of Treatment
12 weeks

Percentage of participants who achieve IGA mod 2011 0 or 1, and improved by at least 2 points on the IGA scale compared to baseline. This scale ranges from 0 (clear, no signs of psoriasis) to 4 (severe).

Secondary Endpoints

PASI 90 Response

Frequently asked questions about Secukinumab auto-injector

What is secukinumab auto-injector?

Secukinumab auto-injector is a 2 mL prefilled auto-injector delivering 300 mg of secukinumab, a monoclonal antibody developed by Novartis AG (ticker NVS). It is being studied for the treatment of moderate to severe plaque psoriasis in adults. The product is an investigational formulation rather than a currently approved presentation.

What is secukinumab auto-injector used for?

Secukinumab auto-injector is used for moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. The Phase 3 study enrolled adults 18 years and older with this condition across the United States, Canada, Germany, Iceland, Poland, and Spain. It is a 300 mg dose given through a 2 mL auto-injector device.

What does secukinumab auto-injector target?

Secukinumab auto-injector targets interleukin-17A, or IL17A. Secukinumab is a monoclonal antibody that acts as an inhibitor of this cytokine. By binding IL17A, the antibody interferes with the inflammatory signaling pathway that drives plaque psoriasis, which is the mechanism underlying its development in dermatology.

Who makes secukinumab auto-injector?

Novartis AG develops secukinumab auto-injector. Novartis trades under the ticker NVS. The company is the sponsor of the Phase 3 program evaluating the 2 mL auto-injector formulation of secukinumab 300 mg in plaque psoriasis.

What phase is secukinumab auto-injector in?

Secukinumab auto-injector is in Phase 3 development. The single registered trial, NCT03589885, has completed, and no trials for this auto-injector formulation are currently active. It is an investigational product and is not described as approved for any indication.

What clinical trials is secukinumab auto-injector in?

Secukinumab auto-injector has been studied in one Phase 3 trial, NCT03589885, titled Study of Efficacy and Safety of Secukinumab 2 mL Auto-injector (300 mg) in Subjects With Moderate to Severe Plaque Psoriasis. The trial was randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled, enrolled 122 participants, and has completed.
