Secukinumab for active ankylosing spondylitis in Chinese adults
Treatments studied
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This trial studies whether secukinumab (a targeted medicine given by injection) can reduce symptoms and disease activity in adults with active ankylosing spondylitis. You may be considered if other common anti-inflammatory medicines have not worked well enough or you could not take them.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a confirmed diagnosis of ankylosing spondylitis, based on specific medical criteria
- Your symptoms are currently active: back pain and overall disease activity must be above set cutoffs at screening and baseline
- You tried at least two NSAIDs for at least 4 weeks total at maximum tolerated doses, or you could not take NSAIDs
- If you use certain other arthritis medicines (like methotrexate, sulfasalazine, hydroxychloroquine, or leflunomide), your dose must be stable for at least 28 days (and you can’t use methotrexate with leflunomide together)
- If you use steroids or pain medicines, the dose must be stable for specific time windows before baseline
