Judging the Efficacy of Secukinumab in Patients With Psoriasis Using AutoiNjector: a Clinical Trial Evaluating Treatment Results (JUNCTURE)

To assess the subject's ability to follow instructions for use with the secukinumab autoinjector

To assess potential use-related hazards with the secukinumab autoinjector for the subject.

The three domains of the POST SIAQ are feelings about injections, self-image, self-confidence, injection-site reactions, ease of use, and satisfaction with self-injection. The SIAQ items are scored on a semantic Likert-type scale where lower numbers indicate a worse experience. Domain scores range from 0 to 10; "0" corresponds to worst experience while "10" corresponds to best experience. Subjects self-injecting at this visit completed this SIAQ questionnaire. The POST-SIAQ is taken after the injection at that visit.

PASI is a combined assessment of lesion severity and affected area into a single score: 0 (no disease) to 72 (maximal disease). Body is divided into 4 areas for scoring (head, arms, trunk, legs; each area is scored by itself and scores are combined for final PASI. For each area, percent of skin involved is estimated: 0 (0%) to 6 (90-100%), and severity is estimated by clinical signs, erythema, induration and desquamation; scale 0 (none) to 4 (maximum). Final PASI = sum of severity parameters for each area* area score weight of section (head: 0.1, arms: 0.2 body: 0.3 legs: 0.4). PASI 50, 75, 90 and 100 were defined as participants achieving ≥ 50%, 75%, 90% or 100% improvement from baseline.

The IGA mod 2011 scale is static, i.e. it referred exclusively to the participant's disease at the time of the assessment, and did not compare with any of the participant's previous disease states at previous visits. The scores are: 0 = clear, 1 = almost clear, 2 = mild, 3 = moderate and 4 = severe.

ED-5Q: Participant rated questionnaire to assess health related quality of life in terms of a single utility score. Five domains are assessed mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression) each with three possible score: 1 indicates no problems, better state of health; 3 indicates worst state of health (example "confined to bed") A visual analog scale (VAS) assesses the health status from 0 (worst possible health state) to 100 (best possible health state).

The DLQI is a quality of life measure used in the psoriatic The 10-item questionnaire has a score range of 0 (best) to 30 (worst) with higher scores indicating poor quality of life. The instrument contains six functional scales (i.e., symptoms and feeling, daily activities, leisure, work and school, personal relationships, treatment). Each item has 4 response categories, ranging from 0 (not at all) to 3 (very much). "Not relevant" is also a valid response and is scored as 0. The DLQI total score is a sum of the 10 questions.

A negative median percent change from baseline indicates improvement.

The development of anti-secunimubab anti-bodies decreases a participant's ability to respond to secukinumab treatment. The number of participants developing anti-secukinumab anti-bodies was measured from Baseline to week 216.
