Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Other - Secukinumab
Treatment: Other - Placebo

Experimental: Secukinumab (AIN457) 150 mg - Participants assigned to secukinumab 150 mg were dosed weekly for five weeks, then once every four weeks up to and including Week 132. To maintain the blinding, patients received additional placebo injections at Weeks 17, 18 and 19. All doses of study treatment are administered by sub-cutaneous injections.

Experimental: Secukinumab (AIN457) 300 mg - Participants assigned to secukinumab 300 mg were dosed weekly for five weeks, then once every four weeks up to and including Week 132. To maintain the blinding, patients received additional placebo injections at Weeks 17, 18 and 19. All doses of study treatment are administered by sub-cutaneous injections.

Placebo comparator: Placebo - Patients assigned to placebo were dosed weekly for five weeks, then at Week 8 and Week 12. At Week 16, placebo patients were randomized in a 1:1 ratio, to receive secukinumab either 150 mg or 300 mg and were dosed weekly for five weeks starting at Week 16, then once every four weeks up to and including Week 132. All doses of study treatment are administered by sub-cutaneous injections.

* Drug-induced psoriasis (e.g. new onset or current exacerbation from ß-blockers, calcium channel inhibitors or lithium)
* Ongoing inflammatory skin diseases other than psoriasis or any other disease affecting the fingernails which may potentially confound the evaluation of study treatment effects
* Ongoing use of prohibited treatments (e.g. topical or systemic corticosteroids (CS), UV therapy). Washout periods do apply
* Prior exposure to secukinumab (AIN457) or any other biological drug directly targeting IL-17 or the IL-17 receptor
