Title: A Phase 2, Multi-Center, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study Comparing the Safety and Efficacy of Subcutaneous Injections of ABT-874 vs. Placebo in Subjects With Moderate to Severe Chronic Plaque Psoriasis
Brief Summary: The purpose of the study is to assess the safety and efficacy of ABT-874 in the treatment of moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis.


Options:
A: Inclusion Criteria:

* Have a diagnosis of plaque-type psoriasis (with or without \[Psoriatic Arthritis\]PsA) for at least 6 months before the first administration of study drug
* A woman of childbearing potential must have a negative urine pregnancy test at screening and at Week 0 and agree to urine pregnancy testing before receiving injections
* Agree not to receive a live virus or live bacterial vaccination during the study, or within 3 months after the last administration of study drug
* Agree not to receive a Bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccination during the study, or within 12 months after the last administration of study drug
* Agree to avoid prolonged sun exposure and avoid use of tanning booths or other ultraviolet light sources during study

Exclusion Criteria:

* Has a history or current signs or symptoms of severe, progressive, or uncontrolled renal, cardiac, vascular, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, endocrine, neurologic, hematologic, rheumatologic, psychiatric, or metabolic disturbances
* Has previously received guselkumab or secukinumab
* Has a history of chronic or recurrent infectious disease, including but not limited to chronic renal infection, chronic chest infection (example bronchiectasis), recurrent urinary tract infection (recurrent pyelonephritis or chronic nonremitting cystitis), fungal infection (mucocutaneous candidiasis), or open, draining, or infected skin wounds or ulcers
* Has a history of lymphoproliferative disease, including lymphoma; a history of monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance; or signs and symptoms suggestive of possible lymphoproliferative disease, such as lymphadenopathy or splenomegaly
* Is unable or unwilling to undergo multiple venipunctures because of poor tolerability or lack of easy access to veins
B: Inclusion criteria:

* Moderate and severe plaque-type psoriasis diagnosed for at least 6 months.
* Severity of psoriasis disease meeting all of the following three criteria:

  * Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) score of 12 or greater
  * Investigator's Global Assessment (IGA) score of 3 or greater
  * Total body surface area (BSA) affected of 10% or greater
* Inadequate control by prior use of topical treatment, phototherapy and/or systemic therapy.

Exclusion criteria:

* Current forms of psoriasis other than chronic plaque-type psoriasis (for example, pustular, erythrodermic, guttate).
* Current drug-induced psoriasis.
* Previous use of secukinumab or any drug that targets IL-17 or IL-17 receptor.
* Significant medical problems such as uncontrolled hypertension, congestive heart failure or a condition that significantly immunocompromises the subject.
* Hematological abnormalities.
* History of an ongoing, chronic or recurrent infectious disease, or evidence of untreated tuberculosis.
* History of lymphoproliferative disease or history of malignancy of any organ system within the past 5 years.
* Pregnant or nursing (lactating) women.
C: Inclusion Criteria:

* Adult participants (≥18 years of age) with a diagnosis of moderate-to-severe chronic plaque psoriasis (defined by ≥10% body surface area \[BSA\] involvement, "moderate" or greater score on the Physician's Global Assessment \[PGA\] scale, and PASI score ≥12 at Baseline)
* Participants must have a diagnosis of predominantly plaque psoriasis for ≥6 months (as determined by interview and confirmation of diagnosis through physical examination by investigator) and be considered candidates for phototherapy or systemic therapy. Participants with psoriatic arthritis may be included in the study

Exclusion Criteria:

* Nonplaque forms of psoriasis specifically erythrodermic psoriasis, predominantly pustular psoriasis, medication-induced or medication-exacerbated psoriasis, or new onset guttate psoriasis
* Participants who will require oral or injectable corticosteroids during the trial
* Presence of any infection requiring treatment with systemic antibiotics within 2 weeks prior to Screening, or serious infection (eg, pneumonia, cellulitis, bone or joint infections) requiring hospitalization or treatment with intravenous antibiotics within 8 weeks prior to Screening
* Participants with evidence of active or untreated latent tuberculosis (TB) according to Screening criteria specified in the protocol. (Prophylactic treatment for latent TB as per local guidelines must be initiated at least 4 weeks prior to treatment with study medication)
* Previous exposure to any agents targeting interleukin-12 (IL-12) and/or Interleukin-23 (IL-23)
* Participants with prior exposure to two or more tumor necrosis factor (TNF) antagonists with discontinuation due to lack of efficacy.
D: Inclusion Criteria:

* Subject was age 18 or older and in good health (Investigator discretion) with a recent stable medical history.
* Subject had a clinical diagnosis of psoriasis for at least 6 months, and had moderate to severe plaque psoriasis

Exclusion Criteria:

* Subject had previously received systemic or biologic anti-IL-12 therapy
* Subject cannot discontinue systemic therapies and/or topical therapies for the treatment of psoriasis and cannot avoid UVB or PUVA phototherapy
* Subject is taking or requires oral or injectable corticosteroids
* Subject considered by the investigator, for any reason, to be an unsuitable candidate for the study
* Female subject who is pregnant or breast-feeding or considering becoming pregnant
