Abstract: 【Abstract】 Psoriasis is an immune-mediated, chronic, inflammatory and systemic disease that can occur at any age and has a profound impact on patients′ quality of life. Interleukin-17A is a key pro-inflammatory cytokine involved in the pathogenesis of psoriasis. Secukinumab is a fully human anti-interleukin-17A monoclonal antibody. It is approved in China for the treatment of moderate‐to‐severe plaque psoriasis in patients aged 6 years or older, active psoriatic arthritis in adults and ankylosing spondylitis in adults. Since its launch, a large amount of real‐world data on the efficacy and safety has been accumulated in China. To standardize the use of secukinumab in the long‐term management of psoriasis, a systematic review of the literature on the long-term efficacy and safety of secukinumab as well as its treatment strategies and use in special populations was conducted, and an expert consensus was proposed.
