AScalate: Treat-to-target in Axial Spondyloarthritis

This was a randomized, parallel-group, open-label, multicenter study in patients with active axSpA. The aim of the study was to demonstrate that the efficacy of a T2T approach (with secukinumab as a first-line biologic) was superior to a SOC approach in terms of achieving strong clinical efficacy in patients with active axSpA who were naïve to biological therapy and who had an inadequate response to prior non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) treatment.
