-----------------
Primary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Percentage of Participants Meeting American College of Rheumatology Response Criteria ≥20% (ACR20): 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). | At end of Month 3 | 
| Change From Baseline in Health Assessment Questionnaire - Disability Index (HAQ-DI) Score | 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. | From Baseline to Month 3 | 

Secondary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Change From Baseline in the Van Der Heijdel Modified Total Sharp Score (mTSS) for Psoriatic Arthritis | 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. | From Baseline to Month 12 | 
| Percentage of Participants With Progressed Modified Total Sharp Score (mTSS) 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. | At Month 12 | 
| Percentage of Participants Meeting American College of Rheumatology Response Criteria ≥50% (ACR50) at Week 2 and Months 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, and 12 | ACR50 was calculated as a ≥50% improvement from baseline in tender/painful and swollen joint counts and ≥50% 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, HAQ-DI, and CRP. | At Week 2 and Months 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, and 12 |

| Change From Baseline in American College of Rheumatology Response Criteria Components: C-reactive Protein Levels | The test for CRP is a laboratory measurement for evaluation of an acute phase reactant of inflammation through the use of an ultrasensitive assay. A decrease in the level of CRP indicates reduction in inflammation and therefore improvement. | From Baseline to end of Month 3 | 
| Change From Baseline in American College of Rheumatology Response Criteria Components Score: Patient's Assessment of Arthritis Pain | Participants assessed the severity of their arthritis pain using a 100-mm visual analog scale (VAS) by placing a mark on the scale between 0 (no pain) and 100 (most severe pain), which corresponded to the magnitude of their pain. | From Baseline to end of Month 3 | 
| Change From Baseline in American College of Rheumatology Response Criteria Components Score: Patient's Global Assessment of Arthritis | Participant answered the following question, Considering all the ways your arthritis affects you, how are you feeling today? The participant's response was recorded using a 100 mm VAS by placing a mark on the scale between 0 (very well) and 100 (very poorly). | From Baseline to end of Month 3 | 
| Change From Baseline in American College of Rheumatology Response Criteria Components Score: Physician's Global Assessment of Arthritis | The blinded investigator or qualified assessor assessed how the participant's overall arthritis appeared at the time of the visit. This was an evaluation based on the participant's disease signs, functional capacity and physical examination, and was independent of the Patient's Global Assessment of Arthritis. The investigator's response was recorded using a 100 mm VAS by placing a mark on the scale between 0 (very good) and 100 (very poor). | From Baseline to end of Month 3 | 
| Change From Baseline in American College of Rheumatology Response Criteria Components Score: Swollen Joint Count | Swollen joint counts are considered the most specific quantitative clinical measure used to assess the status of participants with inflammatory types of arthritis.

| Change From Baseline in Physician's Global Assessment of Psoriasis (PGA-PsO) Response | 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). | From Baseline to Months 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 | 
| Percentage of Participants With Psoriasis Area and Severity Index 75 (PASI75) Response 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. | At Months 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 | 
| Change From Baseline in Dactylitis Severity Score (DSS) | Dactylitis is characterized by swelling of the entire finger or toe.

The severity of dactylitis is scored on a scale of 0-3, where 0=no tenderness and 3=extreme tenderness in each digit of the hands and feet. The range of total dactylitis scores for a patient is 0-60. Higher score indicates greater degree of tenderness. | From Baseline to Months 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 |

On examination, tenderness is recorded as present (1) or absent (0) for each of the 16 sites, with an overall total score ranging from 0 to 16. Higher score indicates a greater number of sites that are affected by enthesitis. | From Baseline to Months 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 | 
| Change From Baseline in the Leeds Enthesitis Index (LEI) | Enthesitis is inflammation in the tendon, ligament, and joint capsule fiber insertion into bone. The LEI assesses enthesitis in 6 sites. Tenderness is recorded as either present (1) or absent (0) for each of the 6 sites, for an total score of 0-6. Higher score indicates a greater number of sites that are affected by enthesitis. | From Baseline to Months 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 |

| Change From Baseline in Scores Evaluating Spondylitis Using the Bath Anklyosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI) | 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. | From Baseline to Months 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 |
