For adults with active ankylosing spondylitis
MOVE AND FEEL BETTER WITH COSENTYX® (secukinumab)
COSENTYX may help improve mobility and reduce back pain in people with ankylosing spondylitis*,**
*Administered subcutaneously (under your skin)
**All results shown in clinical trials using subcutaneous (SC) administration (injection under the skin). The FDA approval of the intravenous (IV) administration (injected into a vein) of COSENTYX is based on data showing that the amount of the medication in your body after it is given directly through IV was within the range that would be seen when given as SC.
†At 16 weeks, patients saw 35% improvement in mobility while taking COSENTYX vs 11% taking placebo.
‡At 16 weeks, patients taking COSENTYX saw 43% improvement in back pain vs 16% taking placebo.
Many people taking COSENTYX saw relief from AS symptoms at 16 weeks and a similar percentage at 5 years:
Twice as many people treated with COSENTYX achieved at least a 20% improvement in overall symptoms versus those taking placebo (61% vs 28%) in as little as 16 weeks.
A similar percentage of people saw an improvement in AS symptoms at 5 years as well.§
§In this study, patients and doctors were told which medication was being used after 4 months. When patients and doctors know the study drug being used, it may affect the results.
COSENTYX may help improve your mobility, so you can do the things you need to do more easily.
In a clinical trial, patients taking COSENTYX completed a questionnaire that asked how difficult it was to perform daily activities, which included:
