Title: A Phase 3, Multi-Center, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study Comparing the Efficacy and Safety of ABT-874 to Etanercept and Placebo in Subjects With Moderate to Severe Chronic Plaque Psoriasis
Brief Summary: Compare the efficacy of ABT-874 versus etanercept in subjects with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis


Options:
A: Inclusion Criteria:

* Diagnosis of Psoriasis for 6 mo.
* BSA 10%, PASI 12 or above, PGA 3 or above

Exclusion Criteria:

* Previous exposure to either etanercept or ABT-874
B: Inclusion criteria:

* Subject is male or female, aged ≥ 18 years to ≤ 70 years at Screening. Female subjects must either be postmenopausal (at least 1 year), permanently sterilized or, if of childbearing potential, must be willing to use at least 2 effective methods of contraception, including a barrier method during the study period. Effective methods of contraception are methods of birth control, which result in a low failure rate when used consistently and correctly, such as implants, injectables, oral contraceptives, progesterone-releasing intrauterine systems or the TCu 380A intrauterine device, complete sexual abstinence, or vasectomized partner. Male subjects with partners of childbearing potential must be willing to use a condom when sexually active. Both male and female subjects must use the above mentioned contraception for 20 weeks after administration of study drug (anticipated 5 half-lives)
* Subject has had a confirmed diagnosis of mild to moderate plaque-type psoriasis for at least 6 months involving ≤ 5 % of body surface area (BSA) (excluding the scalp)
* Subject has a body mass index of ≤ 35 kg/m\^2 at Screening
* Subject has a minimum of 2 psoriatic lesions with at least 1 plaque in a site suitable for biopsy

Exclusion Criteria:

* Female subject who is pregnant, or plans to become pregnant during the study, or lactating, or sexually active with childbearing potential who is not using a medically accepted birth control method
* Subject has received systemic nonbiologic psoriasis therapy (methotrexate \[MTX\], steroids, cyclophosphamide) or psoralen plus ultraviolet A (PUVA)/ultraviolet A (UVA) phototherapy within 4 weeks prior to Screening
* Subject has received treatment with biologic agents within 12 months prior to the study
* Subject has received live attenuated vaccination within 6 weeks prior to Screening or intends to have such a vaccination during the course of the study
* Subject has received any investigational drug or experimental procedure within 90 days or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer, prior to IMP administration
* Subject requires treatment with a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug during the study period. Paracetamol will be permitted for use as an antipyretic and/or analgesic
* Subject has an active infection (eg, sepsis, pneumonia, abscess) or has had a serious infection (resulting in hospitalization or requiring parenteral antibiotic treatment) within 6 weeks prior to IMP administration. When in doubt, the Investigator should confer with the UCB Study Physician
* Subject has a history of a positive tuberculosis (TB) test or evidence of possible TB or latent TB infection at Screening that cannot be attributed to a prior Bacillus Calmette-Guérin inoculation
* Subject has renal or liver impairment, defined as:

  * For women, serum creatinine level ≥ 125 μmol/L; for men, ≥ 135 μmol/L, or
  * ALT and aspartate aminotransferase ≥ 2x ULN, or
  * Alkaline phosphatase and bilirubin \> 1.5x ULN (an isolated bilirubin \> 1.5x ULN is acceptable if bilirubin is fractionated and direct bilirubin is \< 35 %)
* Subject has active neoplastic disease or history of neoplastic disease within 5 years of Screening (except for basal or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin or carcinoma in situ that has been definitively treated with standard of care)
C: 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
