Axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) is an inflammatory disease in which overactive interleukin (IL)-17A-producing cells are implicated in a central role. Therapeutically, biologics that target IL-17A, such as secukinumab, have demonstrated improved clinical outcomes. Despite this translational success, there is a gap in understanding why some patients with axSpA do not respond to IL-17A-blocking therapy. Our study aims to discriminate immune profiles between secukinumab responders (SEC-R) and nonresponders (SEC-NR).
