Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of guselkumab compared with secukinumab for the treatment of participants with moderate to severe plaque-type psoriasis.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Psoriasis Drug: Guselkumab Drug: Placebo Drug: Secukinumab Phase 3

Detailed Description:
The study consists of Screening Phase(4 weeks before administration of study drug),Active Treatment Phase(Week 0-Week 44),Follow Up Phase(Week 44-Week 56).During various study periods,safety assessments(example[e.g] recording of adverse events,Vital signs,Tuberculosis evaluation,Chest radiograph,Urine pregnancy Test);Efficacy assessments(e.g IGA,PASI);Clinical Laboratory Assessments(e.g haematology,chemistry);Biomarkers/Genetic evaluations,will be performed per the study procedures.The primary hypotheses are that guselkumab treatment is non-inferior to secukinumab as assessed by proportion of participants achieving PASI 90 response at Week 48 with noninferiority margin of 10% and,once non-inferiority is established,that guselkumab is superior to secukinumab as assessed by proportion of participants achieving PASI 90 response at Week 48.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Percentage of Participants Who Achieved a Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI)-90 Response at Week 48 [ Time Frame: Week 48 ]
    The PASI is a system used for assessing and grading the severity of psoriatic lesions. In the PASI system, the body is divided into 4 regions: the head, trunk, upper extremities, and lower extremities. Each of these areas were assessed separately for the percentage of the area involved, which translates to a numeric score that ranges from 0 to 6, and for erythema, induration, and scaling, which are each rated on a scale of 0 to 4. The PASI produces a numeric score that can range from 0 to 72. A higher score indicates more severe disease. A PASI 90 response represents participants who achieved at least a 90 percent improvement from baseline in the PASI score.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Percentage of Participants Who Achieved a PASI-75 Response at Both Week 12 and 48 [ Time Frame: Week 12 and 48 ]
    Percentage of participants who achieved PASI-75 response at both Week 12 and 48 was reported. The PASI is a system used for assessing and grading the severity of psoriatic lesions and their response to therapy. In the PASI system, the body is divided into 4 regions: the head, trunk, upper extremities, and lower extremities. Each of these areas is assessed separately for the percentage of the area involved, which translates to a numeric score that ranges from 0 (indicates no involvement) to 6 (90%-100% involvement), and for erythema, induration, and scaling, which are each rated on a scale of 0 to 4. The PASI produces a numeric score that could range from 0 (no psoriasis) to 72. A higher score indicates more severe disease. PASI 75 response was defined as at least a 75% reduction in PASI relative to baseline.

  2. Percentage of Participants Who Achieved a PASI-90 Response at Week 12 [ Time Frame: Week 12 ]
    The PASI is a system used for assessing and grading the severity of psoriatic lesions and their response to therapy.

The PASI produces a numeric score that could range from 0 (no psoriasis) to 72. A higher score indicates more severe disease. PASI 90 response was defined as at least a 90% reduction in PASI relative to baseline. Due to failing to achieve superiority of prior secondary endpoint, no formal statistical testing was performed for endpoints from this point onwards.
