  • SEC 150 mg, N=287; SEC 300 mg, N=286; SDZ-ADL 40 mg, N=286.

  • *Estimated mean, marginal difference, 95% CI, and p-value are from logistic regression model with treatment as a factor and BSL mSASSS score/count of vertebral corners with syndesmophyte as covariate using marginal standardisation method.

  • #LS Mean and 95% CI are from ANCOVA model with treatment as a factor and BSL mSASSS score as covariate.

  • Comparison vs SDZ-ADL 40 mg.

  • pts with syndesmophyte(s) at BSL
