To assess the ventilator-free days; under therapy with SECUKINUMAB in addition to standard assistance; as compared with patients under only standard assistance. This outcome will be assessed on day 28 (VFD-28). VFD-28 is defined as follow: VFD-28 = 0 If the patient dies before 28 days. VFD-28 = (28-x) If the patient is successfully weaned from mechanical ventilation within 28 days; where x is the number of days spent receiving mechanical ventilation. VFD-28 = 0 If the patient requires mechanical ventilation for 28 days or more
