Inclusion Criteria

The subject must meet ALL of the criteria listed below for entry:
1. Subjects must have met all inclusion/exclusion criteria in Study P04271.
2. Subjects must have been originally randomized to infliximab in Study P04271.
3. Subjects must have completed the full 26 weeks of Study P04271.
4. Subjects must have remained on infliximab for the full 22 weeks of treatment
in Study P04271.
5. Subjects must have achieved an improvement in Psoriasis Area and Severity
Index (PASI) score =75% from Baseline of Study P04271 to Week 26 of
Study P04271.
6. Subjects must agree to avoid prolonged sun exposure and avoid use of
tanning booths or other ultraviolet light sources during the study.
7. Subjects are considered eligible according to the following tuberculosis (TB)
criteria:
a. Have no signs or symptoms suggestive of active TB upon medical
history and/or physical examination;
b. Have had no recent close contact with a person with active TB or, if
there has been such contact, will be referred to a physician
specializing in TB to undergo additional evaluation and, if warranted,
receive appropriate treatment for latent TB prior to or simultaneously
with the first administration of study medication.
8. Subjects’ Baseline (Visit 1) clinical laboratory tests (CBC, blood chemistry,
and urinalysis) must be within the following parameters:
a. Hemoglobin =10 g/dL
b. White blood cells =3.5 x 10 9/L
c. Neutrophils =1.5 x 10 9/L
d. Platelets =100 x 10 9/L
e. Serum creatinine <1.5 mg/dL (or <133 µmol/L)
f. Aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, alkaline
phosphatase, and gamma-glutamyltransferase levels as outlined in
Table 2
g. Total bilirubin < 2 x upper limit of normal
9. Subjects must be free of any clinically significant disease (other than plaque-type
psoriasis or psoriatic arthritis) that would interfere with the study
evaluations.
10. Subjects must be willing to give written informed consent and be able to
adhere to dose and visit schedules.
11. Women of childbearing potential and all men must be using adequate birth
control measures (eg, abstinence, oral contraceptives, intrauterine device,
barrier method with spermicide, or surgical sterilization) and must continue
using such measures until 6 months after receiving the last infusion of study
medication.
12. Female subjects of childbearing potential must have a negative urine
pregnancy test at Baseline.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Secondary Objective: The secondary objective of this trial is to assess the long-term safety of maintenance therapy versus intermittent therapy with infliximab in subjects with moderate to severe plaque-type psoriasis.;Primary end point(s): The primary endpoint is the PASI75 (Psoriasis Area and Severity Index) response rate at Week 128 (PASI75 is defined as the proportion of subjects achieving a =75% improvement in PASI from the original Baseline in Study P04271).;Main Objective: The primary objective of this trial is to assess the efficacy of long-term maintenance therapy versus intermittent therapy with infliximab (5 mg/kg by body weight) in adult subjects (aged 18-75 years) diagnosed with moderate to severe plaque-type psoriasis who have remained on 22 weeks of treatment with infliximab in Study P04271, and completed the full 26 weeks of Study P04271.
