Clinical Trial Summary

This study will examine how intravenous (i.v.) Secukinumab will be processed in the body (pharmacokinetics [PK]) and whether it will be safe and tolerable after multiple doses of i.v. Secukinumab infusion in adult patients with giant cell arteritis (GCA) or polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR).


Clinical Trial Description

This is a 12-week, open-label, multicenter, basket design study followed by an 8-week follow-up period in two cohorts of participants, one cohort with GCA and one cohort with PMR. This study will consist of 3 phases: screening, treatment and follow-up. Participants will enter a screening period: up to 6 weeks to assess eligibility [or up to 8 weeks in the event of a major healthcare disruption or a need to complete screening requirements (e.g., required washouts, TB testing, and work up and treatment as needed per local guidelines. Participants will enter a treatment period of 12 weeks: 2 cohorts (GCA and PMR cohorts) receiving total of 3 i.v. doses of Secukinumab (Week 0, Week 4 and Week 8). After treatment participants will enter a follow-up period: 8 weeks treatment-free follow-up (12 weeks after last dose of study treatment). The total duration of the trial for a participant (from screening to follow up) is approximately 26 weeks (maximum of approximately 28 weeks) including safety follow-up. ;
