Title: A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Multiple-dose Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy of AMG 827 in Subjects With Psoriasis
Brief Summary: The study evaluated the efficacy of AMG 827 compared with placebo as measured by the percent of improvement in PASI score at week 12.


Options:
A: Inclusion Criteria:

* Subject has had stable moderate to severe plaque psoriasis for at least 6 months
* Subject has received at least one previous phototherapy or systemic psoriasis therapy or has been a candidate to receive phototherapy or systemic psoriasis therapy in the opinion of the investigator.
* Subject has involved BSA ≥ 10% and PASI ≥ 12 at screening and at baseline.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Subject diagnosed with erythrodermic psoriasis, pustular psoriasis, medication-induced, or medication-exacerbated psoriasis.
* Evidence of skin conditions at the time of the screening visit (eg, eczema, guttate psoriasis) that would interfere with evaluations of the effect of IP on psoriasis.
* Subject has any active CTCAE grade 2 or higher infection
* Subject has a significant concurrent medical condition or laboratory abnormalities, as defined in the study protocol.
* Subject has used the following therapies within 14 days of the first dose: UVB therapy or topical psoriasis therapies other than Class I or II topical steroids
* Subject has used the following therapies within 28 days of the first dose: Class I or II topical steroids, UVA therapy (with or without psoralen), or systemic psoriasis therapies
* Subject has used the following therapies within 3 months of the first dose: adalimumab, alefacept, etanercept, infliximab, certolizumab, or live vaccines
* Subject has used an anti-IL12/IL23 inhibitor within 6 months of the first dose
* Subject has previously used an anti-IL17 biologic therapy, efalizumab, or rituximab
B: Inclusion Criteria:

* Subjects with chronic, plaque-type psoriasis for at least 6 months
* Must have moderate to severe psoriasis based on PASI greater than 12, IGA greater than 3, and greater than 10% body surface area
* Must be inadequately controlled by prior treatments (topicals, phototherapy, and/or systemic therapies)

Exclusion Criteria:

* Forms of psoriasis other than chronic, plaque-type (such as pustular, erythrodermic and guttate psoriasis)
* Drug induced psoriasis
* Use of other psoriasis treatments during the study
* Prior use of etanercept
* Prior use of secukinumab or any other drug that target IL-17 (interleukin 17) or the IL-17 receptor
* Pregnant or lactating women; women who do not agree to use contraception during the study and for 16 weeks after stopping treatment
* Significant medical problems such as uncontrolled high blood pressure, congestive heart failure, etc.
* History of an ongoing, chronic or recurrent infection or evidence of tuberculosis
* Allergy to rubber or latex

Other protocol-defined inclusion/exclusion criteria may apply
C: Inclusion Criteria:

* Patients should have diagnosis of plaque-type psoriasis for at least 6 months prior to first administration of study agent (patients with concurrent psoriatic arthritis may be enrolled)
* Moderate-to-severe psoriasis scored as PASI \>= 10 at screening and at the time of first administration of ustekinumab
* Should currently receive (and have been receiving for at least 8 weeks directly prior to screening) systemic therapy with methotrexate at a dose of at least 10 mg/week but not exceeding 25 mg/week, with an inadequate response to this treatment (due to either efficacy or tolerability) and, in the judgment of the treating physician and patient, a treatment change is needed
* Women should take adequate birth control measures throughout the study and must agree to continue to use such birth control measures and not to become pregnant or plan to become pregnant for at least 15 weeks after the last dose of ustekinumab and for at least 6 months after the last dose of methotrexate
* Men must be using adequate birth control measures whilst receiving methotrexate and for 6 months after the last dose of methotrexate

Exclusion Criteria:

* Patients should not have non-plaque forms of psoriasis (eg, erythrodermic, guttate, or pustular)
* Should currently (and within 12 months) not receive ciclosporin, fumarates, PUVA, etanercept, efalizumab, infliximab, adalimumab or alefacept or other biologic or systemic therapy (and other therapy as indicated in the protocol)
* Women who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning pregnancy (both men and women) while enrolled in the study
* Have previously failed treatment with any therapeutic agent directly targeted at reducing IL-12 or IL-23, including, but not limited to, ustekinumab and ABT-874
* Active or latent Tuberculosis or other chronic or recurrent infectious disease
* Known history of lymphoproliferative disease
* Known malignancy or history of malignancy
D: Inclusion Criteria:

Diagnosis of PsA classified by CASPAR criteria and with symptoms for at least 6 months with moderate to severe PsA who must have at BSL ≥3 tender joints out of 78 and ≥3 swollen joints out of 76 (dactylitis of a digit counts as one joint each).

* Rheumatoid factor (RF) and anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti-CCP) antibodies negative at screening.
* Diagnosis of active plaque psoriasis or nail changes consistent with psoriasis or a documented history of plaque psoriasis.
* Subjects with PsA should have taken NSAIDs for at least 4 weeks prior to randomization with inadequate control of symptoms or at least one dose if stopped due to intolerance to NSAIDs.-Subjects who are regularly taking NSAIDs as part of their PsA therapy are required to be on a stable dose for at least 2 weeks before study randomization and should remain on a stable dose up to Week 24.
* Subjects taking corticosteroids must be on a stable dose of ≤10 mg/day prednisone or equivalent for at least 2 weeks before randomization and should remain on a stable dose up to Week 24.
* Subjects taking MTX (≤ 25 mg/week) are allowed to continue their medication if the dose is stable for at least 4 weeks before randomization and should remain on a stable dose up to Week 52.
* Subjects on MTX must be on folic acid supplementation at randomization.
* Subjects who are on a DMARD other than MTX must discontinue the DMARD 4 weeks prior to randomization visit except for leflunomide, which has to be discontinued for 8 weeks prior to randomization unless a cholestyramine wash-out has been performed.
