First look: testing a new IV treatment for painful inflammatory diseases

NCT ID NCT06130540

Summary

This study aimed to understand how the body processes a drug called secukinumab when given through an IV (intravenous) line, and to check its safety. It involved 65 adults with either giant cell arteritis (GCA) or polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR), two painful inflammatory conditions. Participants received three IV infusions over 12 weeks and were monitored for about 6 months total to see how the drug behaved in their bodies and to watch for side effects.
