Study to Demonstrate the Efficacy, Safety and Tolerability of Intravenous Secukinumab up to 52 Weeks in Subjects With Active Psoriatic Arthritis — INVIGORATE 2  

Psoriatic Arthritis Clinical Trial

Official title: A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Parallel Group, Phase III Multicenter Study of Intravenous Secukinumab to Compare Efficacy at 16 Weeks With Placebo and to Assess Safety and Tolerability up to 52 Weeks in Subjects With Active Psoriatic Arthritis

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study was to provide up to 52 weeks of efficacy, safety and tolerability data to support registration of intravenous (i.v.) secukinumab (Initial dose of 6 mg/kg at Baseline (BSL) followed thereafter with 3 mg/kg administered every four weeks) in patients with active psoriatic arthritis (PsA) despite current or previous Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), Disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) and/or anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) therapy.

Clinical Trial Description

This multicenter study used a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group design. A screening (SCR) period running up to 10 weeks before randomization was used to assess subject eligibility followed by a treatment period of 52 weeks.

At baseline, 381 patients with active psoriatic arthritis were randomized to one of the two treatment groups in a 1:1 randomization:

Group 1: Approximately 190 patients with active psoriatic arthritis; These patients received secukinumab 6 mg/kg i.v. at BSL, followed by the administration of secukinumab 3 mg/kg i.v. every four weeks starting at Week 4.

Group 2: Approximately 190 patients with active psoriatic arthritis; These patients received i.v. placebo at BSL and at Weeks 4, 8, and 12, followed by the administration of secukinumab 3 mg/kg i.v. every four weeks starting at Week 16.

Study consisted of 4 periods: a screening period (up to 10 weeks), treatment period 1 (total duration of 16 weeks) and treatment period 2 (total duration of 36 weeks) followed by a safety follow up period of 8 weeks after the end of treatment visit (i.e., Week 52).

Primary endpoint analysis will be performed with Week 16 data (last patient completing Treatment period 1 (Week 16). Long-term efficacy and safety assessments will be performed up to Week 52. ;
