What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Percentage of Participants With a Psoriasis Area and Severity Index 75 (PASI75) Response at Week 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 assessed 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. PASI75 response was defined as at least a 75 percent (%) reduction in PASI at Week 16 relative to Baseline.	Week 16
Percentage of Participants With a Physician Global Assessment (PGA) of Psoriasis Score of 'Clear' or 'Almost Clear' at Week 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).	Week 16
Proportion of Participants With an American College of Rheumatology 20% (ACR20) Response at Week 16	ACR20 response: greater than or equal to (>=) 20 percent (%) improvement in tender joint count; >=20% improvement in swollen joint count; and >=20% improvement in at least 3 of 5 remaining ACR core measures: participant assessment of pain; participant global assessment of disease activity; physician global assessment of disease activity; self-assessed disability (disability index of the Health Assessment Questionnaire [HAQ]); and C-Reactive Protein (CRP).	Week 16
Number of Participants With Adjudicated Cardiovacular Events	Adjudicated cardiovascular events were assessed by investigators as independent reviewers based on event documentation including: hospital discharge summaries, operative reports, clinic notes, ECGs, diagnostic enzymes, results of other diagnostic tests, autopsy reports and death certificate information; specific requirements vary with the event requiring adjudication.	Baseline to Follow-up
Number of Participants With Malignancy Events _Week 0 Through Follow-up	For all biopsies of potentially malignant tumors, suspicious lymphadenopathy, or possible extranodal LPD, the study site requested the pathologist to send the original slides used to make the definitive diagnosis, ancillary study reports, and the pathologist's report to the central laboratory for a blinded review by a central pathologist.	Baseline to Follow-up

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Number of Affected Nails	Nail psoriasis is evaluated by the presence or absence of psoriatic manifestations on the nail matrix (pitting, leukonychia, red spots on lulunea, crumbling) and nail bed (onycholysis, splinter hemorrhages, subungual hyperkeratosis, oil drop [salmon patch dyschromia]). Total number psoriasis affected nails (presence of psoriatic manifestations on the nail matrix/nail bed) were assessed and reported.	Baseline, Week 8, 16, 20, 28, 40, 52
Itch Severity Item (ISI) Score	ISI assessed severity of itch (pruritus) due to psoriasis. ISI is a single item, horizontal numeric rating scale. Participants were asked to rate "your worst itching due to psoriasis over the past 24 hours" on a numeric rating scale anchored by the terms "No itching" (0) and "Worst possible itching" (10) at the ends for post baseline time points. Baseline ISI is average of scores on 7 days prior to start of study treatment.	Baseline, Week 2, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 28, 40, 52
Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) Score	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.	Baseline, Week 2, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 28, 40, 52
Percentage of Participants With a Psoriasis Area and Severity Index 75 (PASI75) Response	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 assessed 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.

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. PASI50 response was defined as at least a 50 percent (%) reduction in PASI at the each visit relative to Baseline.	Week 2, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 28, 40, 52
Percentage of Participants With a Psoriasis Area and Severity Index 90 (PASI90) Response	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 assessed 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. PASI90 response was defined as at least a 90 percent (%) reduction in PASI at the each visit relative to Baseline.	Week 2, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 28, 40, 52
Time to Achieve a Physician Global Assessment (PGA) of Psoriasis Score of 'Clear' or 'Almost Clear'	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). Median time to achieve a PGA response up to week 16 is reported.
