All changes are least squares mean changes from baseline.

Results based on full analysis set, and NRI-C (week 24) or NRI (as observed with imputation) (week 52) was used for binary endpoints; MMRM was used for continuous endpoints.

statistically significant under overall type I error control.

a

Data previously reported, except for the mTSS endpoints [11].

b

In patients with baseline HAQ-DI ≥0.35.

c

Among patients with ≥3% body surface area affected by psoriasis.

d

Among patients with nail psoriasis at baseline (RZB, n =309; PBO, n =338).

e

Defined as Leeds Enthesitis Index = 0 among patients with enthesitis or dactylitis at baseline.

f

Pooled from KEEPsAKE 1 and KEEPsAKE 2 as a prespecified analysis.

g

Defined as Leeds Dactylitis Index = 0 among patients with enthesitis or dactylitis at baseline.

h

Results for PsA-mTSS were recorded from the second reading session and assessed using linear extrapolation. For the PBO to RZB group, all data at week 52 were imputed by linear extrapolation; for patients who switched from PBO to RZB at week 24, the week 24 X-ray was used for extrapolation to impute the data at week 52.
