Primary outcomes

  1. Change From Baseline in Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) Score at Week 12

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 12

    The Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) score (0-72, with higher score representing greater severity) is a measurement of the severity and extent of psoriasis. The four regions of the body parts are head (10%), arms (20%), trunk (30%) and legs (40%). In each region, the area is expressed as a score of 0 (nothing), 1 (1-9%), 2 (10-29%), 3 (30-49%), 4 (50-69%), 5 (70-89%) or 6 (90-100%). Within each area, the degree of severity for erythema, induration and scaling are estimated between 0 and 4, with 4 being the highest severity. The final score combines disease severity and effected body surface area (BSA) from for four regions using the formula PASI =0.1Ah(Eh + Ih + Sh) + 0.2Au(Eu + Iu + Su) + 0.3At(Et + It + St) + 0.4Al(El + Il + Sl) where A = Area Score; E = erythema; I =induration; S = scaling; h = head; u = upper limbs; t = trunk; l = lower limbs.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Percentage of Participants With Physician Global Assessment (PGA) Score Clear (0) or Almost Clear (1) and Greater Than or Equal to (>=) 2 Points Improvement From Baseline at Week 12

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 12

    PGA of psoriasis was scored on a 5-point scale, reflecting a global consideration of the erythema, induration, and scaling across all psoriatic lesions. Average erythema, induration, and scaling were scored separately over the whole body according to a 5-point severity scale (0 [no symptom] to 4 [severe symptom]). The total score was calculated as average of the 3 severity scores and rounded to the nearest whole number score to determine the PGA score and category. Scale for PGA: 0= clear, 1= almost clear, 2= mild, 3= moderate and 4= severe. Higher scores indicate more severity.

  2. Percentage of Participants With 75% Reduction From Baseline in PASI at Week 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, and 16

SAE was an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly. AEs included both SAEs and all non-SAEs. Treatment emergent AEs (TEAEs) were events that occurred between first dose of study drug and up to 4 weeks after last dose that were absent before treatment or that worsened relative to pretreatment state. A treatment-related AE was any untoward medical occurrence attributed to the study drug in a participant who received study drug. Relatedness to study drug was assessed by the investigator.

Grade 0= none (no evidence of local intolerance), Grade 1= mild (minimal erythema and/or edema, slight glazed appearance), Grade 2= moderate (definite erythema and/or oedema with peeling and/or cracking but needs no adaptation of posology), Grade 3= severe, reported as AE (erythema, oedema glazing with fissures, few vesicles or papules: consider removing topical agent [if still in place]), Grade 4= very severe, reported as AE (strong reaction spreading beyond the treated area, bullous reaction, erosions: removal of topical agent [if still in place]).
