Purpose
This study is designed to provide efficacy and safety data of several doses of AEB071 so that the optimal dose and treatment duration can be chosen for testing in later studies in patients with plaque psoriasis (with a disease severity such that systemic treatment is justified). The treatment free Follow-up Period is designed to provide additional safety data and information on disease recurrence after the last dose of the study drug.

Further study details as provided by Novartis:
Primary Outcome Measures:
- Change from baseline in plaque psoriasis as assessed by PASI response or PASI 75 (a patient that has an improvement from baseline PASI of at least 75%) [ Time Frame: to 12 weeks treatment ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
Secondary Outcome Measures:
- ECG and laboratory parameters, rates of AEs, and percentage of patients requiring interruption or discontinuation of study drug due to AEs [ Time Frame: up to 12 weeks treatment ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
- change in PASI and Investigator's Global Assessment (IGA) of psoriasis in patients receiving AEB071 compared with placebo [ Time Frame: up to 12 weeks treatment ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- disease recurrence (PASI, IGA) and the effect of treatment withdrawal (including AEs) in the treatment-free Follow-up Period [ Time Frame: in the treatment-free Follow-up Period ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
