Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Aortic Vascular Inflammation as Measured by FDG-PET/CT

    Change from baseline in the target to background ratio from the whole aorta. Effect of secukinumab 300 mg subcutaneous (sc) compared to placebo on aortic vascular inflammation with respect to the change from baseline in the target (arterial vascular uptake) to background (venous blood pool) ratio from the aorta. The primary analysis time point was at Week 12. Increased aortic vascular inflammation as measured by (18F) fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography with computer assisted tomography (FDG-PET/CT)

    baseline, 12 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (29)

  • Change in Adiponectin Total

    baseline, 12 weeks

  • Change in Apolipoprotein B

    baseline, 12 weeks

  • Change in CRP

    baseline, 12 weeks

  • Change in Cholesterol

  • Change in Fetuin A

  • +24 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Secukinumab

EXPERIMENTAL

Eligible patients received secukinumab 300 mg once weekly at Baseline, Weeks 1, 2, 3 and 4 followed by monthly dosing starting at Week 8 through Week 48 inclusive

Drug: Secukinumab 300 mg

Placebo then Secukinumab

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Eligible patients received placebo doses once weekly at Baseline, Weeks 1, 2, 3 and 4 followed by a dose after four weeks at Week 8. Beginning with the Week 12 dose, participants were switched to treatment with secukinumab 300 mg and were dosed once weekly at Weeks 12, 13, 14, 15 and 16 followed by monthly dosing through Week 48 inclusive.

Biological: Placebo

Interventions

Secukinumab 300 mg was provided in 1 mL prefilled syringes of 150 mg. Each dose of 300 mg secukinumab consisted of two secukinumab 150 mg injections once weekly for 5 weeks (Baseline, Weeks 1, 2, 3 and 4), followed by dosing every four weeks starting at Week 8 through Week 48 inclusive. The patients (or caregivers) self-injected each dose at the study site under the supervision of site personnel when injections occurred on days of study visits. The injections not occurring on days of study visits were done by the patients (or caregivers) at home.

Secukinumab
PlaceboBIOLOGICAL

Placebo was provided in 1 mL prefilled syringe. Each placebo dose consisted of two placebo injections once weekly for five weeks (Baseline, Weeks 1, 2, 3, 4), then after four weeks at Week 8. At Week 12, patients were switched to receive 300 mg secukinumab once weekly for five weeks (Weeks 12, 13, 14, 15, 16) followed by monthly dosing through Week 48 inclusive. The patients (or caregivers) self-injected each dose at the study site under the supervision of site personnel when injections occured on days of study visits. The injections not occurring on days of study visits were done by the patients (or caregivers) at home.
