New study reveals how long patients stay on secukinumab for skin and joint conditions
NCT ID NCT05155098
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This completed study followed 127 adults with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, or non-radiographic axial spondyloarthritis who were already taking or starting secukinumab. Researchers observed them for two years to see how long they continued the medication and how their quality of life changed. The goal was to gather real-world data on treatment patterns and effectiveness outside of a controlled clinical trial.
