Secukinumab, trade name Cosentyx, is a human IgG1κ monoclonal antibody that binds to the protein interleukin (IL)-17A,[1] and is manufactured by Novartis Pharma AG for the treatment of psoriasis, ankylosing spondylitis, and psoriatic arthritis. It targets member A form of the cytokine family of interleukin 17, severely inhibiting its functioning.[2][3] On January 21, 2015, the United States, the federal Food and Drug Administration announced that it had approved secukinumab to treat adults with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis.[4][5] On January 15, 2016, the United States, the federal Food and Drug Administration announced that it had approved secukinumab to treat adults with ankylosing spondylitis, and psoriatic arthritis.[6]

Although the drug was originally intended to treat rheumatoid arthritis, phase II clinical trials for this condition yielded disappointing results.[7]
