* Have moderate to severe plaque psoriasis at screening and baseline
* Must be in good health (except for psoriasis) as judged by the Investigator, based on medical history, physical examination, 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG), clinical laboratories, and urinalysis
* Must meet laboratory criteria
* Females of childbearing potential (FCBP)\* must have a negative pregnancy test at screening and baseline. While on investigational product (IP) and for at least 28 days after taking the last dose of investigational product, FCBP who engage in activity in which conception is possible - must use one of the approved contraceptive\*\* options described below:
