Title: A Dose-Ranging And Efficacy Study of LY2439821 (An Anti-IL-17 Antibody) In Patients With Moderate-To-Severe Psoriasis
Brief Summary: The primary purpose for this study is to help answer the following research questions

* The safety of ixekizumab (LY2439821) and any side effects that might be associated with it.
* Whether ixekizumab can help participants with Psoriasis.
* How much ixekizumab should be given to participants.

9. Male subjects (including those who have had a vasectomy) who engage in activity in which conception is possible must use barrier contraception (male latex condom or nonlatex condom NOT made out of natural \[animal\] membrane \[for example, polyurethane\]) while on investigational product and for at least 28 days after the last dose of investigational product
