An adverse event (AE) was defined as any untoward medical occurrence which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this the study drug. An AE was defined as any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of study drug, whether or not considered related to the study drug or worsening of pre-existing medical condition, whether or not related to study drug. TEAEs were the AEs occurring or worsening after treatment administration.
Number of Subjects With Local Injection Site Reactions (ISRs)
The injection site was assessed by the Principal Investigator (PI) or his/her designee for local reactions such as redness, swelling, indurations or bruising, and by the subject for itching. Redness and bruising were scaled as None (no visible redness or bruising present); Mild (less than or equal to [<=] 2.0 centimeters [cm] redness or bruising area); Moderate (greater than [>] 2 to <=5.0 cm redness or bruising area); Severe (>5.0 cm redness or bruising area). Swelling was scaled as None (no swelling detected); Mild (palpable 'firmness' only); Moderate (<= 4 cm swelling); Severe (>4 cm swelling). Induration was scaled as None (no induration); Mild (able to move skin parallel to plane (sliding) and perpendicular to skin (pinching up); Moderate (able to slide skin, unable to pinch skin); Severe (unable to slide or pinch skin). Itching was scaled as No itching; Mild itching; Moderate itching and Severe itching. Subjects who reported any of the local ISRs were reported.
Amount of Pain at Injection Site Assessed By Visual Analog Scale (VAS)
Subjects were asked to assess their severity of injection site pain on a 100 millimeter (mm) VAS, where 0 = no pain and 100 = worst possible pain. Mean of amount of pain was calculated for the subjects having a value > 0. Maximum values per subjects (over injection site areas) are used for counting the amount of pain at injection site.

Secondary Outcome Measures
Percentage of Subjects With 50% or 75% Improvement From Baseline in Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) Score
PASI: a physician assessed index that measured psoriasis severity and evaluated erythema, infiltration, and desquamation (scaling) on different body areas including the head, upper extremities, the trunk, and lower extremities. T Erythema, infiltration, and scaling are scored on a scale of 0 (none) to 4 (very severe) on 4 anatomic regions of the body: head, trunk, upper limbs, and lower limbs. Degree of involvement on each of the 4 anatomic regions is scored on a scale of 0 (no involvement) to 6 (90% to 100% involvement). The total qualitative score (sum of erythema, thickness, and scaling scores) was multiplied by the degree of involvement for each anatomic region and then multiplied by a constant. These values for each anatomic region are summed to yield the PASI score. PASI score ranged from 0 to 72, with higher scores reflecting greater disease severity. PASI 50% or 75% was defined as the percentage of participants who achieved >=50 or 75% improvement in PASI score from Baseline.
Mean Change From Baseline in Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) Score at Day 43
PASI: a physician assessed index that measured psoriasis severity and evaluated erythema, infiltration, and desquamation (scaling) on different body areas including the head, upper extremities, the trunk, and lower extremities. T Erythema, infiltration, and scaling are scored on a scale of 0 (none) to 4 (very severe) on 4 anatomic regions of the body: head, trunk, upper limbs, and lower limbs. Degree of involvement on each of the 4 anatomic regions is scored on a scale of 0 (no involvement) to 6 (90% to 100% involvement). The total qualitative score (sum of erythema, thickness, and scaling scores) was multiplied by the degree of involvement for each anatomic region and then multiplied by a constant. These values for each anatomic region are summed to yield the PASI score. PASI score ranged from 0 to 72, with higher scores reflecting greater disease severity. PASI 50% or 75% was defined as the percentage of subjects who achieved >=50 or 75% improvement in PASI score from Baseline.
Percentage of Subjects With Static Physician's Global Assessment (sPGA) Score of Minimal or Clear and With at Least 2 Level Reduction From Baseline
The static Physician's Global Assessment (sPGA) scale rated the investigator's overall clinical assessment of a subjects plaque thickness, erythema, and scaling on a 6-point scale ranging from 0 (clear, except for residual discoloration) to 5 (majority of plaques have severe thickness, erythema, and scale). To assign a sPGA score, the investigator examined all psoriatic lesions and assigned a severity score ranging from 0 to 5 for thickness, erythema, and scaling. Scores for thickness, erythema, and scaling are summed and the mean of these 3 scores equals the overall sPGA score. Overall sPGA score ranged from 0 to 5, where lower scores indicate clinical improvement. Percentage of subjects who achieved a sPGA rating of 0 (clear) or 1 (minimal) and had at Least 2 level reduction from Baseline score were reported.
Mean Percent Change From Baseline in the Body Surface Area (BSA) Affected by Psoriasis at Day 8, 15, 22, 29, 36, 43, 50 and 85
The BSA is the physician's evaluation for the extent of disease. The entire body area is divided into 4 districts: head, upper limbs, trunk and lower limbs to which corresponds the 10%, 20%, 30% and 40% of the entire body surface respectively. The investigator assesses the percentage of the subjects' body surface area affected by psoriasis in each district. The final affected BSA value is the sum of the percentage of each district.
Percentage of Subjects With Exacerbation of Psoriasis
Psoriasis exacerbation was defined as either a worsening of 25% over the baseline value of the PASI score (PASI score at any visit >=125% of baseline PASI).

Secondary Outcome Measure Information:
Title
Percentage of Subjects With 50% or 75% Improvement From Baseline in Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) Score
Description
PASI: a physician assessed index that measured psoriasis severity and evaluated erythema, infiltration, and desquamation (scaling) on different body areas including the head, upper extremities, the trunk, and lower extremities. T Erythema, infiltration, and scaling are scored on a scale of 0 (none) to 4 (very severe) on 4 anatomic regions of the body: head, trunk, upper limbs, and lower limbs. Degree of involvement on each of the 4 anatomic regions is scored on a scale of 0 (no involvement) to 6 (90% to 100% involvement). The total qualitative score (sum of erythema, thickness, and scaling scores) was multiplied by the degree of involvement for each anatomic region and then multiplied by a constant. These values for each anatomic region are summed to yield the PASI score. PASI score ranged from 0 to 72, with higher scores reflecting greater disease severity. PASI 50% or 75% was defined as the percentage of participants who achieved >=50 or 75% improvement in PASI score from Baseline.
Time Frame
Baseline up to Day 85
Title

Title
Percentage of Subjects With Static Physician's Global Assessment (sPGA) Score of Minimal or Clear and With at Least 2 Level Reduction From Baseline
Description
The static Physician's Global Assessment (sPGA) scale rated the investigator's overall clinical assessment of a subjects plaque thickness, erythema, and scaling on a 6-point scale ranging from 0 (clear, except for residual discoloration) to 5 (majority of plaques have severe thickness, erythema, and scale). To assign a sPGA score, the investigator examined all psoriatic lesions and assigned a severity score ranging from 0 to 5 for thickness, erythema, and scaling. Scores for thickness, erythema, and scaling are summed and the mean of these 3 scores equals the overall sPGA score. Overall sPGA score ranged from 0 to 5, where lower scores indicate clinical improvement. Percentage of subjects who achieved a sPGA rating of 0 (clear) or 1 (minimal) and had at Least 2 level reduction from Baseline score were reported.
