Title: A Multicenter, Double-blind and Open Label, 4 Year Extension Study of Subcutaneous Secukinumab in Prefilled Syringes, Assessing Long-term Safety, Tolerability and Efficacy in Subjects With Moderate to Severe Chronic Plaque-type Psoriasis Treated With Either a Fixed Dose Regimen or on a Retreatment at Start of Relapse Regimen
Brief Summary: CAIN457A2304E1 was an extension study to two phase III studies, CAIN457A2304 and CAIN457A2307 (core studies). This extension study planned to collect up to four years of long-term safety, tolerability and efficacy data of secukinumab in both the fixed interval regimen and the retreatment at start of relapse regimen. All subjects who completed the full study treatment period (52 weeks) in the cores studies CAIN457A2304 and CAIN457A2307 were eligible to participate in this extension study. In this extension study, the prefilled syringe (PFS) liquid formulation of secukinumab was used.

* Have stable moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis with or without psoriatic arthritis at both Screening and Baseline (Randomisation):

  1. Have an involved body surface area (BSA) ≥10% and
  2. Have a Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) score ≥12 and
  3. Have a static Physician Global Assessment (sPGA) score of ≥3.
* Must be candidates for systemic therapy or phototherapy for psoriasis treatment, as assessed by the investigator.
* Must be a candidate for treatment with Stelara® (ustekinumab) according to local label.

Exclusion criteria:

* Patients with:

  1. non-plaque forms of psoriasis (including guttate, erythrodermic, or pustular)
  2. current drug-induced psoriasis (including an exacerbation of psoriasis from beta blockers, calcium channel blockers, or lithium)
  3. active ongoing inflammatory diseases other than psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis that might confound trial evaluations according to investigator's judgment
* Previous exposure to BI 655066.
* Previous exposure to ustekinumab (Stelara®).
C: Inclusion Criteria:

1. Subjects must be able to understand and communicate with the investigator and comply with the requirements of the study and must give a written, signed and dated informed consent before any study related activity is performed. Where relevant, a legal representative will also sign the informed consent according to local laws and regulations.
2. Subjects who complete Week 52 of study CAIN457A2304 or complete Week 40 of study CAIN457A2307
3. Subjects expected to benefit from participation in the extension study, as assessed by the subject and investigator

Exclusion Criteria:

1. A protocol deviation in the core studies which according to the investigator will prevent the meaningful analysis of the extension study for the individual subject
2. Ongoing use of prohibited psoriasis or non-psoriasis treatments. Time period from last use of prohibited treatments in the core study to first dose of study drug in this extension study.
3. Subjects expected to be exposed to an undue safety risk if participating in the trial
4. Current severe progressive or uncontrolled disease which in the judgment of the investigator renders the subject unsuitable for the trial
5. Plans for administration of live vaccines during the study period
6. Pregnant or nursing (lactating) women, where pregnancy is defined as the state of a female after conception and until the termination of gestation, confirmed by a positive hCG laboratory test (\>10 mIU/mL).
D: Inclusion Criteria:

* Have had a diagnosis of plaque-type psoriasis at least 6 months
* Plaque-type psoriasis covering at least 10% of total body surface areas
* Psoriasis area-and-severity index score of 12 or greater
* Considered by treating dermatologist to be a candidate for phototherapy or systemic treatment of psoriasis
* Women of childbearing potential and all men must agree to use adequate birth control measures
* Have no history of latent or active tuberculosis

Exclusion Criteria:

* Currently have nonplaque forms of psoriasis or drug-induced psoriasis
* Women who are pregnant or nursing, or men and women planning pregnancy while enrolled in the study
