Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Percentage of Participants With ppPASI 75 Response at Week 16 (Period 1)

    The primary endpoint was assessed by the palmoplantar pustulosis Psoriasis Area and Severity Index 75 (ppPASI 75). The percentage of subjects who achieved a 75% reduction in ppPASI score from Baseline to Week 16 was measured. The ppPASI is a modification of the PASI score and adjusted for palmoplantar pustular psoriasis by classifying and scoring erythema, scaling (desquamation) and pustules/vesicles. Both palms and both plants are scored from 0 to 4. The extent of involvement of each region of the body is scored from 0 to 6. The total ppPASI score can range from a lower level of 0, corresponding to no signs of psoriasis, up to a maximum of 72.

    Baseline to Week 16

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • ppPASI: Absolute Change From Baseline to Week 16

    Baseline to Week 16

  • Percentage of Participants With ppPASI 75 Response Over Time (Period 1)

    Baseline to Week 16

  • Percentage of Participants With ppPASI 75 Response Over Time (Period 2)

    Week 16 to Week 52

  • Percentage of Participants With ppPASI 75 Response Over Time (Extension Period)

    Week 52 to Week 148

  • Percentage of Participants With Most Frequent Adverse Events - Period 1 (Patient's Safety)

    Baseline to Week 16 (Period 1)

  • +2 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (3)

Secukinumab 300mg

EXPERIMENTAL

Secukinumab 300mg once weekly at Weeks 1, 2 and 3, thereafter at 4-weekly intervals starting Week 4 until Week 48. In order to maintain the blinding beyond the primary endpoint, placebo was administered at Weeks 17, 18 and 19. For extension period: Secukinumab 300mg at 4-weekly intervals starting Week 52 up to Week 148.

Biological: Secukinumab 300mgBiological: Placebo

Secukinumab 150mg

EXPERIMENTAL

Secukinumab 150mg once weekly at Weeks 1, 2 and 3, thereafter at 4-weekly intervals starting Week 4 until Week 48. In order to maintain the blinding beyond the primary endpoint, placebo was administered at Weeks 17, 18 and 19. For extension period: Secukinumab 150mg at 4-weekly intervals starting Week 52 up to Week 148.

Biological: Secukinumab 150mgBiological: Placebo

Placebo

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Placebo once weekly at Weeks 1, 2 and 3, thereafter at 4-weekly intervals starting Week 4 until Week 12. Patients who achieved ppPASI 75 at Week 16 remained on placebo treatment Until week 48 and were not eligible to enter the extension. Patients who did not achieve ppPASI 75 at Week 16 were re-randomized to receive Secukinumab 150mg or Secukinumab 300mg from Week 16 onwards up to Week 148.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Palmoplantar pustular psoriasis for at least 6 months before Randomization
  • Moderate to severe palmoplantar pustular psoriasis as defined at Baseline by:
  • ppPASI score of ≥ 12 and
  • DLQI ≥ 10
  • Candidate for systemic therapy, defined as having palmoplantar pustular psoriasis inadequately controlled by:
  • Topical treatment, and/or
  • Phototherapy, and/or
  • Previous systemic therapy

You may not qualify if:

  • Forms of psoriasis other than chronic plaque psoriasis and pustular palmoplantar psoriasis (e.g., erythrodermic, guttate, or generalized pustular psoriasis)
  • Drug-induced psoriasis (e.g., new onset or current exacerbation from beta-blockers, calcium channel inhibitors, or lithium) or history of proven contact dermatitis
  • Patients not willing to limit UV light exposure (e.g. sunbathing and/or the use of tanning devices) during the course of the study
  • Ongoing use of prohibited psoriasis treatments (e.g., topical or systemic corticosteroids, UV therapy). Washout periods detailed in the protocol have to be adhered to
  • Previous exposure to any biologic drug directly targeting IL-17 or IL-17 Receptor (e.g., secukinumab, ixekizumab, or brodalumab)
  • Women of child-bearing potential, defined as all women physiologically capable of becoming pregnant, unless they are using effective methods of contraception during dosing of study treatment and for 16 weeks after stopping treatment
  • Active ongoing inflammatory diseases other than psoriasis that might confound the evaluation of the benefit of secukinumab therapy
  • Use of any other investigational drugs within 4 weeks of study drug initiation or within a period of 5 half-lives of the investigational treatment, whichever is longer
