Secukinumab

Secukinumab doubled sustained remission at 52 weeks in relapsed polymyalgia rheumatica — 41% versus 20% on a prednisone taper alone — and halved the need for escape steroid. But 150 mg worked as well as 300 mg, the component data show the drug maintains remission rather than inducing it, and roughly six in ten treated patients still did not reach the endpoint.
