Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of participants with JIA ACR30 response308 weeks

JIA ACR 30 is defined as 30% improvement from baseline in a minimum of three out of six variables with no more than one variable worsening more than 30% as defined in the ACR criteria. The six variables assessed in order to calculate JIA ACR 30 are:

* Physician global assessment of overall disease activity

* Parent's or patients' global assessment of patient's overall well-being

* Functional ability (CHAQ: Childhood Health Assessment Questionnaire)

* Number of joints with active arthritis

* Number of joint with limited range of motion

* Index of inflammation: C-reactive Protein (CRP)

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of participants with total Enthesitis count308 weeks

16 joints will be assessed for tenderness on each side of the body.

Number of participants with inactive disease status308 weeks

In order for inactive disease to be confirmed in a patient when all the following conditions are met:

* No joints with active arthritis

* No uveitis

* CRP value within normal limits for the laboratory where tested or, if elevated, not attributable to JIA

* Physician's global assessment of disease activity score ≤ 10mm

* Duration of morning stiffness attributable to JIA lasting ≥15 minutes.

Number of participants with total Dactylitis count308 weeks

The dactylitis count is the number of fingers and toes presenting with swelling and inflammation.

Pharmacokinetics (PK) of secukinumab308 weeks

Concentration of secukinumab in the body

Number of participants with JIA ACR 50/70/90/100 response308 weeks

JIA ACR 50/70/90/100 are defined as 50%, 70%, 90% and 100% improvement from baseline respectively in a minimum of three out of six variables with no more than one variable worsening more than 50%, 70%, 90% and 100% respectively, as defined in the ACR criteria. The six variables assessed in order to calculate JIA ACR responses are:

* Physician global assessment of overall disease activity

* Parent's or patients' global assessment of patient's overall well-being

* Functional ability (CHAQ:" Childhood Health Assessment Questionnaire)

* Number of joints with active arthritis

* Number of joint with limited range of motion

* Index of inflammation: C-reactive Protein (CRP)

Number of participants with Juvenile Arthritis Disease Activity Score (JADAS)308 weeks

JADAS will be derived from the following assessments:

* Physician global assessment of overall disease activity

* Parent's or patients' global assessment of patient's overall well-being

* Number of joints with active arthritis

* Tender and swollen joint counts

* Index of inflammation: C-reactive Protein (CRP)
