  * involved body surface area (BSA) \>= 10% and
  * Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) score \>= 12 and
  * static Physician's Global Assessment (sPGA) score of \>= 3.
* Participants of reproductive potential (childbearing potential ) must be willing and able to use highly effective methods of birth control per International Council for Harmonization (ICH) M3 (R2) that result in a low failure rate of less than 1% per year when used consistently and correctly during the trial and for 6 months following completion or discontinuation from the trial medication.
* Signed and dated written informed consent in accordance with Good Clinical Practice (GCP) and local legislation prior to admission to the trial.
* Patients who are candidates for systemic therapy.

Exclusion criteria:

* Active ongoing inflammatory diseases other than psoriasis that might confound trial evaluations according to investigator's judgment.

* Patients with a significant disease other than psoriasis and/or a significant uncontrolled disease (such as, but not limited to, nervous system, renal, hepatic, endocrine, hematological, autoimmune or gastrointestinal disorders).
* Major surgery performed within 12 weeks prior to randomization or planned within 6 months after screening, e.g., total hip replacement.
* Any documented active or suspected malignancy or history of malignancy within 5 years prior to screening, except appropriately treated basal cell carcinoma of the skin or in situ carcinoma of uterine cervix.
* Patients who must or wish to continue the intake of restricted medications or any drug considered likely to interfere with the safe conduct of the trial.

* Chronic alcohol or drug abuse
* Women who are pregnant, nursing, or who plan to become pregnant during the course of this study or within the period at least 6 months following completion or discontinuation from the trial.
* Forms of psoriasis (e.g., pustular, erythrodermic and guttate) other than chronic plaque psoriasis. Drug-induced psoriasis (i.e., new onset or current exacerbation from e.g., beta blockers or lithium).

* Any treatment (including biologic therapies) that, in the opinion of the investigator, may place the patient at unacceptable risk during the trial.
* Known active infection of any kind (excluding fungal infections of nail beds), any major episode of infection requiring hospitalization or treatment with intravenous (i.v.) anti infectives within 4 weeks of the Screening Visit
* Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) or alanine aminotransferase (ALT) \> 2.5 times upper limit of normal (ULN) at Screening.

* Platelets \< 100,000/µL at Screening.
* Leukocyte count \< 4000/µL at Screening.
* Creatinine clearance \< 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 at Screening.
* Patients with a history of any clinically significant adverse reaction to murine or chimeric proteins, or natural rubber and latex, including serious allergic reactions.
