Abstract:
:Introduction: Secukinumab is a fully human monoclonal antibody which targets and neutralizes interleukin (IL)-17A, a cytokine that plays an important role in the pathophysiology of ankylosing spondylitis (AS). Secukinumab is the first IL-17A inhibitor approved for the treatment of AS. Areas covered: This paper aimed to evaluate the role of IL-17 in human beings, and the blocking of this cytokine with secukinumab while reviewing its efficacy and safety in the treatment of AS from data of MEASURE clinical trials. Expert opinion: MEASURE clinical trials showed efficacy and safety of secukinumab in patients with AS. Mild infections were the most frequent adverse event observed. Mucocutaneous candidiasis was a relatively common side effect due to the role of IL-17A in mucocutaneous defense against extracellular organisms. Secukinumab remained generally well tolerated over the longer-term. The combination of efficacy and safety makes secukinumab a good option of treatment for patients with AS refractory to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.
