Title: A Multicenter, Randomized, Double-Blind Study Comparing the Efficacy and Safety of Ixekizumab Versus Placebo in Patients With Moderate-to-Severe Genital Psoriasis
Brief Summary: The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the study drug ixekizumab compared to placebo in participants with moderate-to-severe genital psoriasis.


Options:
A: Inclusion Criteria:

* Mild to moderate chronic plaque psoriasis (psoriasis vulgaris), with the duration of at least 6 months;
* A target plaque of at least 9 sq. cm.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Demonstrates "rebound" or "flare" of chronic plaque psoriasis;
* Non plaque form of psoriasis;
* Currently have or history of psoriatic arthritis;
* Current drug induced psoriasis;
* Currently on systemic therapy or was on systemic therapy for psoriasis within the previous 6 months;
* Currently on phototherapy for psoriasis or was on phototherapy within the previous 3 months
B: Inclusion Criteria:

* Have chronic plaque psoriasis based on a diagnosis of chronic plaque psoriasis for at least 6 months before baseline.
* Have moderate-to-severe psoriasis in the genital area at screening and baseline.
* Have plaque psoriasis in a nongenital area at screening and baseline.
* Have failed to respond to, or are intolerant of, at least 1 topical therapy used for treatment of psoriasis affecting the genital area.
* Must agree to use reliable method of birth control, which could include abstinence, during the study and for at least 12 weeks following the last dose of study drug.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Pustular, erythrodermic, and/or guttate forms of psoriasis.
* History of drug-induced psoriasis.
* Have recently received certain treatments for psoriasis (in particular, within the past 4 weeks but the restriction can go up to 12 months for some treatments).
* Have ever received treatment with ixekizumab, secukinumab, brodalumab, or another drug with a similar mode of action.
* Cannot avoid excessive sun exposure or use of tanning booths for at least 4 weeks prior to baseline and during the study.
* Are currently enrolled in any other clinical trial involving an investigational product.
* Serious disorder or illness other than plaque psoriasis.
* Active or history of malignant disease within 5 years prior to baseline.
* Serious infection within the last 3 months.
* Have received a live vaccine within 3 months of baseline or plan to do so during the study.
* Have received a vaccination with Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) within the past year.
* Pregnant or breastfeeding (lactating) women.
C: 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.
* Subjects who have been on a TNFα inhibitor must have experienced an inadequate response to previous or current treatment with a TNFα inhibitor given at an approved dose for at least 3 months or have stopped treatment due to safety/tolerability problems after at least one administration of a TNFα inhibitor.
* Subjects who have previously been treated with TNFα inhibitors (investigational or approved) will be allowed entry into study after appropriate wash-out period prior to randomization

Exclusion Criteria:

Chest X-ray or chest MRI with evidence of ongoing infectious or malignant process. - Subjects taking high potency opioid analgesics.

* Previous exposure to secukinumab or other biologic drug directly targeting IL-17 or IL-17 receptor. - Ongoing use of prohibited psoriasis treatments / medications (e.g., topical corticosteroids, UV therapy) at randomization.
* Any intramuscular or intravenous or intra-articular corticosteroid treatment within 4 weeks before randomization.
* Subjects who have ever received biologic immunomodulating agents except for those targeting TNFα (investigational or approved).
* Previous treatment with any cell-depleting therapies including but not limited to anti- CD20, investigational agents
* Other protocol-defined exclusion criteria do apply
D: Inclusion Criteria: - Active, but clinically stable, plaque psoriasis involving greater than or equal to 10% of the body surface area - A minimum PASI score of 10 obtained during the screening period Exclusion Criteria: - Active guttate, erythrodermic, or pustular psoriasis at the time of the screening visit - Evidence of skin conditions at the time of the screening visit (e.g., eczema) that would interfere with evaluations of the effect of an investigational product on psoriasis
