Study Details
Timeline
Arms & Interventions
Participants in Part 1a (age greater than or equal to (\>=) 12 - less than (\<) 18 years) will receive a weight-based dose of guselkumab subcutaneously (SC) at Weeks 0, 4, and 12. Participants who are PASI 90 responders at Week 16 will not receive any additional doses of guselkumab until they lose \>=50% of their Week 16 PASI response, then they receive 1 dose guselkumab, followed by a dose 4 weeks later, and every 8 weeks (q8w) thereafter through Week 52. Participants who are PASI 90 non-responders at Week 16 will receive a placebo injection at Week 16 and continue to receive guselkumab q8w from Week 20 through Week 52. Participants who are eligible and willing to continue guselkumab may enter the Long Term Extension (LTE) Phase of the study. Part 1b (age \>= 6 - \<12 years) will follow the same dosing and commence after Part 1a data review.
Participants in Part 1a (age \>= 12 - \<18 years) will receive placebo for guselkumab administered SC at Weeks 0, 4, and 12. Participants who are PASI 90 responders at Week 16 will not receive any additional doses of study intervention until they lose \>=50% of their Week 16 PASI response, at which time they will receive a weight-based guselkumab SC dose, followed by a dose 4 weeks later, and q8w thereafter through Week 52. Participants who are PASI 90 non-responders at Week 16 will receive a weight-based guselkumab dose at Weeks 16 and 20, followed by q8w dosing thereafter through Week 52. Participants who are eligible and willing to continue guselkumab treatment, may enter the LTE phase of the study. Part 1b (age \>= 6 - \<12 years) will follow the same dosing and commence after Part 1a data review.
Participants in Part 1a (age \>= 12 - \<18 years) will receive weight-based etanercept dose up to 50 milligram SC weekly through Week 15. Participants who elect to continue in the study will receive a weight-based guselkumab dose at Weeks 20 and 24, followed by q8w dosing thereafter through Week 48. Participants who are eligible and willing to continue guselkumab treatment, may enter the LTE phase of the study. Part 1b (age \>= 6 - \<12 years) will follow the same dosing and commence after Part 1a data review.
Participants will receive a weight-based dose of open-label guselkumab SC at Weeks 0, 4 and q8w thereafter through Week 52. Participants who are eligible and willing to continue guselkumab treatment, may enter the LTE of the study and continue to receive guselkumab at Week 52 and q8w thereafter.
