A nоn-inferiоrity study cоmpаred risаnkizumаb (intervention) to secukinumab (standard of care) for the outcome of at least 90% improvement in plaque psoriasis symptoms (i.e., PASI90). An NI margin of 12% was used for achievement of PASI90. Risankizumab achieved PASI90 in 73.8% of patients and secukinumab in 65.6% of patients (difference of 8.2%; 95%CI 0.8 to 38.8%). Which of the following is the best interpretation of these results. Compared to secukinumab:
