| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Percentage of Participants With Active Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA) Achieving an American College of Rheumatology Response 20 (ACR20) at Week 16 | Week 16 | ACR20 response was defined as having a positive clinical response to treatment (individual improvement) in disease activity if the participant had at least 20% improvement based on tender 78-joint count, swollen 76-joint count and at least 20% improvement in 3 of the following 5 measures: participant's assessment of PsA pain, patient's global assessment of disease activity, physician's global assessment of disease activity, participant's self-assessed disability (Health Assessment Questionnaire Disability Index (HAQ-DI) score), and acute phase reactant evaluated as (high sensitivity c-reactive protein (hsCRP) or erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR)). |
| Secondary | Change From Baseline to Week 24 With Secukinumab Compared With Placebo for Joint/Bone Structural Damage (Using Van Der Heijde Modified Total Sharp Score (mTSS)) | Baseline, Week 24 | PsA modified vdH-mTSS scoring method was used to assess bone erosion \& joint space narrowing (JSN) in hands \& feet; that included the 2nd through 5th distal interphalangeal (DIP) joints of each hand. Maximum score for erosions was 5 in joints of the hands and 10 in joints of the feet with 0=no erosions, 1=discrete erosion, 2=large erosion not passing the mid-line, and 3=large erosion passing the mid-line. JSN is: 0=normal, 1=asymmetrical or minimal narrowing up to a maximum of 25%, 2 = definite narrowing with loss of up to 50% of the normal space, 3 = definite narrowing with loss of 50-99% of the normal space, and 4 = absence of a joint space. Maximum erosion score is 320 (200 for the hands and 120 for the feet), and the max total JSN score is 208 (160 for the hands and 48 for the feet). Total radiographic score (hands \& feet combined) ranges from 0 to 528, where higher scores indicate more articular damage |
| Secondary | Count and Percentage of Patients Achieving Psoriatic Area and Severity Index 75 (PASI75) Response | Week 16 | The efficacy of secukinumab 150 mg (with or without loading regimen), or 300 mg (with loading regimen) at Week 16 compared with placebo based on the proportion of patients achieving Psoriatic Area and Severity Index 75 (PASI75) response. |
| Secondary | Count and Percentage of Patients Achieving Psoriatic Area and Severity Index 90 (PASI90) Response | 16 weeks | The efficacy of secukinumab 150 mg (with or without loading regimen), or 300 mg (with loading regimen) at Week 16 compared with placebo based on the proportion of patients achieving Psoriatic Area and Severity Index 90 (PASI90) response. |
| Secondary | Count and Percentage of Patients Achieving an ACR50 Response | 16 weeks | ACR 50 Response is a measure based on American College of Rheumatology criteria of at least a 50% improvement in the number of tender and swollen joints, and a 50% improvement in at least 3 of the following: the patient's global assessment of disease status; the patient's assessment of pain; the patient's assessment of function measured using the Stanford Health Assessment Questionnaire the physician's global assessment of disease status; serum C-reactive protein levels. |
| Secondary | Change From Baseline in HAQ-DI© Score | 16 weeks | The change (within treatment) on secukinumab 150 mg (with or without loading regimen), or 300 mg (with loading regimen), at Week 16 compared with placebo for the disease activity assessed by the changes in The Health Assessment Questionnaire disability index (HAQ-DI) relative to baseline. |
| Secondary | Change From Baseline in Disease Activity Score for 28 Joints (DAS28-CRP) (Utilizing High Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein (hsCRP)) | 16 weeks | The improvement on secukinumab 150 mg (with or without loading regimen), or 300 mg (with loading regimen) at Week 16 compared with placebo for the disease activity assessed by the changes in Disease Activity Score for 28 joints (DAS28-CRP) (utilizing High sensitivity C-Reactive Protein (hsCRP)) relative to baseline. Scores range from 0 (no difficulty) to 3 (unable to do) |
| Secondary | Count and Percentage of Patients With Enthesitis in the Subset of Patients Who Had Enthesitis at Baseline | 16 weeks | The efficacy of secukinumab pooled regimen (150 mg with or without loading regimen, and 300 mg with loading regimen) at Week 16 compared with placebo based on the proportion of patients with enthesitis in the subset of patients who had enthesitis at baseline |
| Secondary | Count and Percentage of Participants With Dactylitis in the Subset of Patients Who Have Dactylitis at Baseline | 16 weeks | The efficacy of secukinumab pooled regimen (150 mg with or without loading regimen, and 300 mg with loading regimen) at Week 16 compared with placebo based on the proportion of patients with dactylitis in the subset of patients who have dactylitis at baseline |

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| PRIMARY | Percentage of Participants With Active Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA) Achieving an American College of Rheumatology Response 20 (ACR20) at Week 16 | Week 16 | The analysis was performed in Full Analysis Set (FAS) population defined as all randomized participants assigned to study treatment. Following the intent-to-treat principle, participants were analyzed according to treatment assigned at randomization by actual anti-Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF) status. Missing responses were imputed as non-responders. | percentage of participants | NUMBER |
| SECONDARY | Change From Baseline to Week 24 With Secukinumab Compared With Placebo for Joint/Bone Structural Damage (Using Van Der Heijde Modified Total Sharp Score (mTSS)) | Baseline, Week 24 | The analysis was performed in FAS population with a measurement that could be evaluated. Participants in placebo group, rescued at Week 16 were also extrapolated (i.e. treated as missing at Week 24). | Mean Sharp Score | MEAN |
