Deodhar et al. evaluated the efficacy and safety of intravenous secukinumab in patients with active axial spondyloarthritis. The study found a significant improvement in the ASAS40 response at Week 16 (40.9% vs 22.9% in placebo, P<0.0001), with responses maintained through Week 52. No new safety signals were observed.

IV secukinumab provided rapid and sustained improvements in disease signs and symptoms at Week 16 and through 52 weeks. Kivitz et al. evaluated the long-term efficacy, safety, and tolerability of IV secukinumab in patients with active PsA.
