About this study

This was a retrospective observational study that relied on data extracted from patient chart review at the participating sites. At least 12 months of patient data was verified, comprising at least 6 months (pre-period) and 6 months (post-period) after secukinumab initiation (index date). All data extracted from patient charts was entered into an electronic case report form (eCRF), specifically designed to capture all variables needed for the study data analysis.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Proportion of Patients With Disease-related Clinical Manifestations During 6 Months Before and 6 Months After Secukinumab Initiation

    Measured: Up to 1 year

  2. Proportion of Patients With Disease-related Clinical Manifestations During 6 Months Before Secukinumab Introduction Who Experienced Reduced or Eliminated Manifestations During 6 Months of Secukinumab Treatment

    Measured: Up to 1 year

  3. Proportion of Patients With Disease-related Clinical Manifestations During 6 Months Before Secukinumab Introduction Who Experienced Increased Clinical Manifestations During 6 Months of Secukinumab Treatment

    Measured: Up to 1 year

  4. Proportion of Patients With Disease-related Clinical Manifestations at the Time of Secukinumab Introduction Who Experienced Reduced or Eliminated Manifestations During 6 Months of Secukinumab Treatment

    Measured: Up to 6 months

  5. Proportion of Patients With Disease-related Clinical Manifestations at the Time of Secukinumab Introduction Who Experienced Increased Manifestations During 6 Months of Secukinumab Treatment

    Measured: Up to 6 months

Secondary outcomes (16)
  1. Age

    Measured: Baseline

  2. Gender

    Measured: Baseline

  3. Ethnicity

    Measured: Baseline

  4. Time Since First PsA Symptoms

    Measured: Baseline

  5. Time Since First PsO Symptoms

    Measured: Baseline

  6. Proportion of Patients With Disease-related Clinical Manifestations at Diagnosis

    Measured: Baseline

  7. Proportion of Patients per Screening Tool Used for PsA and PsO Diagnosis

    PsA and PsO screening tools included Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI), Body Surface Area (BSA), Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI), Disease activity in PsA (DAPSA), and Health Assessment Questionnaire Disability Index (HAQ-DI).

    Measured: Up to 1 year

  8. Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI)

    PASI is a combined assessment of lesion severity and affected area into a single score: 0 (no disease) to 72 (maximal disease).

    Measured: Up to 1 year

  9. Body Surface Area (BSA)

    Measured: Up to 1 year

  10. Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI)

    The DLQI is a validated, 10-question, self-reported questionnaire to evaluate the patient's perception of the impact of skin disease on quality of life. The DLQI is rated on a 4-point scale (0 = not at all to 3 = very much). The highest possible total score for the DLQI is 30, and higher scores indicate more severe impact on quality of life.

    Measured: Up to 1 year

  11. Disease activity in PsA (DAPSA)

    The Disease Activity Index for Psoriatic Arthritis (DAPSA) is a tool used to measure PsA activity: remission (0-4); low disease activity (5-14); moderate disease activity (15-28); high disease activity (>28).

    Measured: Up to 1 year

  12. Health Assessment Questionnaire Disability Index (HAQ-DI)

    The HAQ-DI is a 20-question scale assessing functional ability. The final HAQ-DI score ranges from 0 (no problems functioning) to 3 (not able to function).

    Measured: Up to 1 year

  13. Proportion of Patients per Treatment History Prior to Secukinumab Initiation

    Measured: Up to 6 months

  14. Proportion of Patients per Line of treatment (LOT) of PsA/PsO-target Treatment Before Secukinumab Initiation

    Measured: Up to 6 months

  15. Proportion of Patients With Disease-related Clinical Manifestations per Biologic Naïve and Non-biologic Naïve Patients, Categorized by Disease Severity

    Measured: Up to 6 months

  16. Proportion of Patients With Concomitant Medications, per Category

    Measured: Up to 1 year

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Proportion of Patients With Disease-related Clinical Manifestations During 6 Months Before and 6 Months After Secukinumab Initiation (time frame: Up to 1 year). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
