- Have a diagnosis of definite AS (according to the Modified New York Criteria)

Participants who were receiving non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) or disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) had to have received continuous therapy for 3 months at the highest recommended doses or had to have been unable to receive a full 3-month course of full-dose NSAID or DMARD therapy because of intolerance, toxicity, or contraindications. Maximum recommended dosages for DMARDs if used, would be: methotrexate

- 25 milligram per week (mg/week), oral corticosteroids (less than or equal to less than or equal to 10 milligram per day [mg/day] of prednisone or equivalent) or sulfasalazine 3 gram per day (g/day)

For participants with Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA):

- Have PsA that was diagnosed at least 6 months prior to the first administration of study drug (according to the ClASsification criteria for Psoriatic ARthritis [CASPAR])

- Have at least 1 of the PsA subsets: Distal Interphalangeal (DIP) joint arthritis, polyarticular arthritis with the absence of rheumatoid nodules, arthritis mutilans, asymmetric peripheral arthritis, or spondylitis with peripheral arthritis

- Are negative for rheumatoid factors according to the reference range of the local laboratory conducting the test
