Secukinumab efficacy regarding PROs and retention rate was comparable between axSpA and PsA patient groups when adjusted for confounders. Christiansen et al compared 6-, 12- and 24-month pain, fatigue, PGA, and HAQ PROs in axSpA and PsA patients treated with secukinumab, as well as 24-monthy retention rates in this real-world study.  

Baseline disease activity was similar between patient groups. Unadjusted PRO remission rates were higher in axSpA patients and showed greater absolute changes in pain, fatigue, and PGA scores. Retention rates were similar between both axSpA and PsA patients.
