Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) during the study [ Time Frame: From Entry Visit of PA0009 until Safety Follow-Up Visit (up to Week 120) ]
    An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation subject administered a pharmaceutical product, which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE could therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign, symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal (investigational) product, whether or not related to the medicinal (investigational) product.

  2. Incidence of treatment-emergent serious adverse events (SAEs) during the study [ Time Frame: From Entry Visit of PA0009 until Safety Follow-Up Visit (up to Week 120) ]
    Once it is determined that a subject experienced an adverse event (AE), the seriousness of the AE must be determined. An SAE must meet 1 or more of the following criteria: death, life-threatening, significant or persistent disability/incapacity, congenital anomaly/birth defect, important medical event, initial inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization.) product.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Subjects who withdrew due to an treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE) during the study [ Time Frame: From Entry Visit of PA0009 until Safety Follow-Up Visit (up to Week 120) ]
    An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation subject administered a pharmaceutical product, which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE could therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign, symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal (investigational) product, whether or not related to the medicinal (investigational) product.

  2. ACR20 (American College of Rheumatology 20% Improvement) Response at Week 48 calculated relative to Baseline of PA0008 [ Time Frame: Baseline of PA0008, Week 48 ]
    The ACR20 response rate is based on a 20% or greater improvement of arthritis relative to Baseline of PA0008.

  3. ACR50 (American College of Rheumatology 50% Improvement) Response at Week 48 calculated relative to Baseline of PA0008 [ Time Frame: Baseline of PA0008, Week 48 ]
    The ACR50 response rate is based on a 50% or greater improvement of arthritis relative to Baseline of PA0008.

  4. ACR70 (American College of Rheumatology 70% Improvement) Response at Week 48 calculated relative to Baseline of PA0008 [ Time Frame: Baseline of PA0008, Week 48 ]
    The ACR70 response rate is based on a 70% or greater improvement of arthritis relative to Baseline of PA0008.

  5. Change from Baseline of PA0008 in Maastricht Ankylosing Spondylitis Enthesitis Index (MASES) at Week 48 calculated relative to Baseline of PA0008 [ Time Frame: Baseline of PA0008, Week 48 ]
    The MASES is an index that measures the severity (ie, intensity and extent) of enthesitis through the assessment of 13 entheses each scored as 0 or 1 and then summed for a possible score of 0 to 13.

  6. Change from Baseline of PA0008 in the Leeds Dactylitis Index (LDI) at Week 48 calculated relative to Baseline of PA0008 [ Time Frame: Baseline of PA0008, Week 48 ]
    Presence of dactylitis will be assessed using the LDI basic which evaluates for a >=10% difference in the circumference of the digit compared to the opposite digit this is then multiplied by the tenderness score, using a simple grading system (0=absent, 1=present).

  7. PASI75 (Psoriasis Area Severity Index) Response at Week 48 calculated relative to Baseline of PA0008 [ Time Frame: Baseline of PA0008, Week 48 ]

    The PASI75 response is based on at least 75% improvement in the PASI score compared to Baseline in PA0008.

    The Investigator assesses the average redness, thickness, and scaliness of lesions in each body area (each on a 5-point scale); 0=none, 1=slight, 2=moderate, 3=marked, and 4=very marked. The PASI score ranges from 0 to 72 with a higher score indicating increased disease severity.


  8. PASI90 (Psoriasis Area Severity Index) Response at Week 48 calculated relative to Baseline of PA0008 [ Time Frame: Baseline of PA0008, Week 48 ]

    The PASI90 response is based on at least 90% improvement in the PASI score compared to Baseline in PA0008.

    The Investigator assesses the average redness, thickness, and scaliness of lesions in each body area (each on a 5-point scale); 0=none, 1=slight, 2=moderate, 3=marked, and 4=very marked. The PASI score ranges from 0 to 72 with a higher score indicating increased disease severity.
