Brief Summary
The purpose of the study is to assess the effect of extending maintenance dosing intervals beyond 12 weeks on the clinical efficacy and safety of ustekinumab in subjects with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis.
Brief Title
A Study of Ustekinumab to Evaluate a "Subject-tailored" Maintenance Dosing Approach in Subjects With Moderate-to-Severe Plaque Psoriasis
Detailed Description
In this study, a proportion of subjects will receive study agent at its recommended dose and interval (45mg for subjects less than or equal to 100kg, or 90mg for subjects greater than 100kg; every 12 weeks after 2 starter doses at Weeks 0 and 4). The majority of subjects will have the opportunity to receive study agent less frequently during the randomization period depending on the subject's response. The study consists of a 4-week screening period; a 28-week open-label run-in period; a double-blind treatment period from Week 28 to Week 104; a 12 week post-treatment period; and a 20-week safety follow-up. Participants will be randomized for the double blind period into one of two study groups. Group 1 participants will receive an injection of the study medication at a 12 week dosing interval. Group 2 participants will undergo a placebo withdrawal and may receive study agents at an extended interval greater than 12 weeks. During the double-blind treatment period, subjects in Groups 1 and 2 will receive placebo as necessary to maintain the blind.

Primary Outcomes
Outcome Description
Clinical responses for week (wk)28 sPGA responders randomized to every 12 weeks (q12wk) fixed-interval dosing (Group 1) vs. patient-tailored fixed-interval dosing (Group 2) were assessed using the static PGA (sPGA) measure. Investigators graded psoriasis lesions for induration (0=no plaque elevation to 5=severe plaque elevation), erythema (0=no evidence of erythema to 5=dusky to deep red coloration), and scaling (0=no evidence of scaling to 5=severe scaling). The sum of the 3 scales is divided by 3 and rounded to obtain a final sPGA score, defined as 0=cleared (except for residual discoloration), 1=minimal, 2=mild, 3=moderate, 4=marked or 5=severe.
Outcome Measure
The Number of Visits at Which Participants Achieved a Static Physician Global Assessment (PGA) Score of Cleared (0) or Minimal (1)
Outcome Time Frame
Up to 24 weeks (Week 88 up to Week 112 [total 7 visits])

Outcome Measure
The Percentage of Participants With a Static PGA Score of Cleared (0) or Minimal (1) Over Time
Outcome Description
The PASI is a system used for assessing and grading the severity of psoriatic lesions and their response to therapy. The PASI produces a numeric score that can range from 0 to 72. A PASI 75 response is defined as greater than or equal to (\>=) 75 percent (%) improvement in PASI score from baseline.
Outcome Time Frame
Up to 24 weeks (Week 88 up to Week 112 [total 7 visits])
