In active psoriatic arthritisStart With an Established Safety Profile

PHASE 3: Pooled safety data: PSUMMIT I and PSUMMIT II at Week 16 (placebo-controlled period)1-3

 

 

  • Through Week 16, no cases of tuberculosis (TB) or opportunistic infections were reported2
  • Through Week 24, injection-site reactions occurred in 14 (1.5%) patients taking placebo, 6 (1.5%) patients taking STELARA® 45 mg, and 8 (2.2%) patients taking STELARA® 90 mg2

*Squamous cell carcinoma in situ in an area of cleared psoriasis.2

The safety profile of STELARA® is consistent across all other approved indications

 

IN ACTIVE PSORIATIC ARTHRITIS Stay With STELARA®: Consistent Long-term Safety Profile

RATE OF SELECTED TREATMENT-EMERGENT AEs THROUGH WEEK 108 (PSUMMIT I OPEN-LABEL EXTENSION)*†

*Includes patients who received STELARA® 45 mg and those who received STELARA® 90 mg.2

†PSUMMIT I was considered an open-label trial after Week 24.2

 

 
SAFETY DATA THROUGH WEEK 108

Open-Label Extension (PSUMMIT I)2,4

*PSUMMIT I was considered an open-label trial after Week 24.2

†Combined 45-mg group: includes those randomized to 45 mg and those switched from 45 mg to 90 mg.2

‡One of these was from the placebo crossover to 45-mg group.2
