Summary

This trial is investigating whether secukinumab is effective and safe in treating two subtypes of Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis: Juvenile Psoriatic Arthritis and Enthesitis Related Arthritis.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for young patients with Juvenile Psoriatic Arthritis (JPsA) or Enthesitis Related Arthritis (ERA) who completed a previous secukinumab study. They should be seeing benefits from the treatment to qualify, and can't be on other biologic immunomodulators or planning to receive live vaccines.
What is being tested?
The trial is an extension study testing the long-term effects and safety of secukinumab, known as AIN457, in children with JPsA and ERA. It's open label, meaning everyone knows they're getting the actual drug, not a placebo.
What are the potential side effects?
Secukinumab may cause side effects like infections due to immune system suppression, allergic reactions at injection sites, diarrhea, upper respiratory tract infections, and possibly others that are less common.
