The safety follow-up extension of the C-axSpAnd trial showed that long-term clinical outcomes from certolizumab pegol treatment achieved after 1 year were generally sustained at 3 years across MRI+/CRP+, MRI−/CRP+ and MRI+/CRP− subgroups.
Rudwaleit, et al. randomised patients with nr-axSpA 1:1 to certolizumab pegol 200mg Q2W or placebo in the 52-week double-blind period. At Week 52, the optional safety follow-up extension treated all patients with open-label certolizumab pegol through 156 weeks.
