Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentage of Participants With a Psoriasis Area and Severity Index 75 (PASI 75) Response at Week 16Week 16

The PASI quantifies the severity of a participant's psoriasis based on both, "lesion severity" and the "percent of body surface area (BSA)" affected. PASI is a composite scoring by the investigator of degree of erythema, induration, and scaling (each scored separately) for each of 4 body regions (head and neck, upper limbs, trunk \[including axillae and groin\], and lower limbs \[including buttocks\]), with adjustment for the percent of BSA involved for each body region and for the proportion of the body region to the whole body. The PASI score can vary in increments of 0.1 and range from 0.0 to 72.0, with higher scores representing greater severity of psoriasis. PASI 75 response was defined as at least a 75 percent (%) reduction in PASI relative to Baseline.

Percentage of Participants With Physician Global Assessment (PGA) of Psoriasis Score of 'Clear' or 'Almost Clear' at Week 16Week 16

The PGA of psoriasis is 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 are 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 (0=clear; 1=almost clear; 2=mild; 3=moderate; and 4=severe). PGA response was defined as 0 (clear) or 1 (almost clear).

Secondary Outcome Measures

Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) Total ScoreBaseline

The DLQI is a 10-item general dermatology questionnaire that assess health related quality of life (daily activities, personal relationships, symptoms and feelings, leisure, work and school, and treatment). The DLQI item response options are rated by the participant from 0 (not at all/not relevant) to 3 (very much) with a total score range of 0 (best) to 30 (worst); higher scores indicate poor quality of life.

Percent Probability of Participants Maintaining Physician Global Assessment (PGA) of Psoriasis Score of 'Clear' or 'Almost Clear' at Week 52Week 52

The PGA of psoriasis is 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 are scored separately over the whole body according to a 5-point severity scale (0 \[no symptom\] to 4 \[severe symptom\]).

Each finger nail divided with imaginary lines into quadrants and scored for both nail matrix and nail bed psoriasis (range from 0 \[absence of psoriasis\] to 4 \[presence of psoriasis in all 4 quadrants\]). The total NAPSI score equals the sum of scores for all of the finger nails evaluated and ranges from 0 to 80. Higher scores = more severe psoriasis.

Percent Change From Baseline in Total Body Surface Area (BSA) With Psoriasis at Week 16Baseline, Week 16

Assessment of BSA with psoriasis was estimated by means of the handprint method, where the full palmar hand of the participant (fully extended palm, fingers and thumb together) represented approximately 1% of the total BSA. Body regions are assigned specific number of handprints with percentage \[Head and neck = 10% (10 handprints), upper extremities = 20% (20 handprints), Trunk (including axillae and groin) = 30% (30 handprints), lower extremities (including buttocks) = 40% (40 handprints)\]. The number of handprints of psoriatic skin in a body region was used to determine the extent (%) to which a body region was involved with psoriasis. The total BSA affected was the summation of individual regions affected.
