Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Percentage of Participants Meeting American College of Rheumatology Response Criteria ≥20% (ACR20): Month 3 [ Time Frame: At end of Month 3 ]
    ACR20 was calculated as a ≥20% improvement from baseline in tender/painful and swollen joint counts and ≥20% improvement from baseline in 3 of the 5 remaining ACR core set measures: patient's global assessment of arthritis, physician's global assessment of arthritis, patient's assessment of arthritis pain, health assessment questionnaire - disability index (HAQ-DI), and C-reactive protein (CRP).

  2. Change From Baseline in Health Assessment Questionnaire - Disability Index (HAQ-DI) Score [ Time Frame: From Baseline to Month 3 ]
    The HAQ-DI assesses the difficulty a participant has had in the past week in 8 domains of daily living activities: dressing and grooming, arising, eating, walking, hygiene, reach, grip, and other activities. Each activity category consists of 2-3 items. For each question, level of difficulty is scored from 0 to 3 with 0=no difficulty, 1=some difficulty, 2=much difficulty, and 3=unable to do. The score for each domain is the maximum (worst) score from the items/questions within the domain. Higher score indicates greater disability.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Change From Baseline in the Van Der Heijdel Modified Total Sharp Score (mTSS) for Psoriatic Arthritis [ Time Frame: From Baseline to Month 12 ]
    Assessment of joint damage includes a joint erosion score (range 0-320) and a joint space narrowing (JSN) score (range 0-208). The mTSS is the sum of the erosion and JSN scores (range 0-528). A higher score indicates more severe disease status. If a component score is missing, the mTSS will be missing.

  2. Percentage of Participants With Progressed Modified Total Sharp Score (mTSS) at Month 12 [ Time Frame: At Month 12 ]
    Assessment of joint damage includes a joint erosion score (range 0-320) and a JSN score (range 0-208). The mTSS is the sum of the erosion and JSN scores (range 0-528). A higher score indicates more severe disease status. If a component score is missing, the mTSS will be missing. Progressor is defined as an increase in mTSS >0.5 from baseline.

    The PGA-PsO is scored on a 5-point scale, reflecting a global consideration of the erythema, induration, and scaling across all psoriatic lesions. Average erythema, induration, and scaling are rated separately over the whole body according to a 5-point severity scale, scored as 0=none; 1, 2, 3, or 4=most severe. The severity rating scores are summed and the average taken; the total average is rounded to the nearest whole number score to determine a PGA-PsO score on a scale of 0 to 4 (0=clear, 1=almost clear, 2=mild, 3=moderate, 4=severe).

  15. Percentage of Participants With Psoriasis Area and Severity Index 75 (PASI75) Response at Months 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 [ Time Frame: At Months 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 ]
    PASI determines psoriasis severity based on lesion severity & percentage body surface area (BSA) affected. Lesion severity is assessed for erythema, induration, & scaling, evaluated separately for head & neck, upper limbs, trunk, & lower limbs & rated for each body area according to a 5 point scale: 0=no involvement; 1=slight; 2=moderate; 3=marked; 4=very marked. BSA involvement is the extent (%) of body area affected by psoriasis & is assigned a score: 0=no involvement; 1=0-9%; 2=10-29%; 3=30-49%; 4=50-69%; 5=70-89%; 6=90-100%. In each area, sum of severity rating scores is multiplied by the score representing the percentage of area involved by psoriasis, multiplied by a weighting factor (head 0.1; upper limbs 0.2; trunk 0.3; lower limbs 0.4). The sum of numbers obtained for the 4 body areas is the PASI score & can vary in increments of 0.1 & range from 0.0 to 72.0, higher scores represent greater severity of psoriasis. PASI75 is defined as a 75% reduction from baseline in PASI.

All responses are added with equal weight to obtain the total score. Higher scores represent better (less) fatigue experience.

  37. Change From Baseline in Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy Fatigue (FACIT-F) Scores: Impact Domain Score [ Time Frame: From Baseline to Months 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 ]
    FACIT-F is a 13-item questionnaire, with each item score ranging from 0 to 4. Three endpoints are derived: change in FACIT-F total score, change in FACIT-F experience domain score, and change in FACIT-F impact domain score. FACIT-F total score (range 0-52) is calculated by summing the 13 items. FACIT-F experience domain score (range 0-20) is calculated by summing 5 items : I feel fatigued, I feel weak all over, I feel listless ("washed out"), I feel tired, and I have energy, while FACIT-F impact domain score (range 0-32) is calculated by summing the remaining 8 items. All responses are added with equal weight to obtain the total score. Higher scores represent better (less) fatigue impact on daily functioning.

  38. Change From Baseline in Scores Evaluating Spondylitis Using the Bath Anklyosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI) [ Time Frame: From Baseline to Months 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 ]
    BASDAI is a validated self-assessment tool used to determine disease activity in participants with ankylosing spondylitis. Utilizing a visual analog scale of 0-100mm (0=none and 100=very severe) participants answer 6 questions measuring discomfort, pain, and fatigue. The final BASDAI score averages the individual assessments for a final score ranging 0-10cm, with higher scores representing more severe ankylosing spondylitis disease activity.
