Abstract

Psoriasis (PsO), psoriatic arthritis (PsA), and axial spondyloarthritis (AxSpA) are chronic systemic inflammatory disorders closely associated with cardiovascular (CV) disease. Here, we evaluated the effect of secukinumab on CV risk parameters in 9197 patients included in a post hoc analysis of 19 pooled phase 3/4 secukinumab studies in PsO (n = 4742), PsA (n = 2475), and AxSpA (n = 1980). Traditional (body mass index [BMI], fasting glucose, blood pressure, cholesterol, and lipids) and inflammatory CV risk parameters (high-sensitivity C-reactive protein [hsCRP] and neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio [NLR]) were assessed.
