Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: 1. Male or female 18 to 65 years (limits included) of age at the time of signing the informed consent form. 2. Able to provide written informed consent and to comply with the requirements of the protocol. 3. Have been diagnosed with plaque psoriasis for at least 6 months prior to screening. 4. Have moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis as defined by PASI score = 12 and BSA = 10% at baseline. 5. In the investigator's opinion is a candidate for systemic therapy. 6. For male and females of reproductive potential, two methods of contraception must be used throughout the study and for 12 weeks after cessation of study medication. At least one of the methods of contraception must be a barrier method. All males who have not been sterilised (with appropriate post-vasectomy documentation of the absence of sperm in the ejaculate) and females who do not meet the criteria for non child bearing potential are considered to have reproductive potential. For females, non-child-bearing potential is defined as either at least 2 years post-menopausal or permanently sterilised, e.g., by bilateral tubal occlusion, hysterectomy or bilateral salpingectomy. 7. Presence of antibodies (immunoglobulin G [IgG]) to Varicella Zoster Virus (VZV). 8. Negative results for both QuantiFERON-TB Gold test and chest X-ray (with no evidence of tuberculosis [TB]) at screening. Note: if the chest X-ray has been done in the past 6 months prior to screening, no repeat is necessary. Urine pregnancy test to be obtained and results negative prior to chest X ray. Are the trial subjects under 18? no Number of subjects for this age range: F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years) yes F.1.2.1 Number of subjects for this age range 65 F.1.3 Elderly (>=65 years) yes F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range 5

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To evaluate the safety and tolerability of MT-1303 in subjects with moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis. To evaluate the efficacy of MT-1303 in subjects with moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis compared to placebo after 16 weeks of treatment on Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI). ;Secondary Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of MT-1303 in subjects with moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis compared to placebo on clinical outcomes (Static Physician Global Assessment [PGA], body surface area [BSA], Nail Psoriasis Severity Index [NAPSI]). To evaluate the efficacy of MT-1303 on quality of life as measured by Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI). To evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of MT-1303 and its active phosphorylated metabolite (MT 1303-P). ;Primary end point(s): Proportion of subjects who achieve PASI 75 (at least 75% reduction from baseline) at Week 16.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Day -28 to -1 (Screening), Day1, Day 28, Day 56, Day 84, Day 112, Day 140, Day 168, Day 196. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): Secondary efficacy endpoints: • Proportion of subjects who achieve PASI 90 (at least 90% reduction from baseline in PASI score) at Weeks 4, 8, 12 and 16. • Proportion of subjects who achieve PASI 50 (at least 50% reduction from baseline in PASI score) at Weeks 4, 8, 12 and 16. • Proportion of subjects who achieve PASI 75 at Weeks 4, 8 and 12. • Mean percent change from baseline in PASI score at Weeks 4, 8, 12 and 16. • Mean percent change from baseline in Static PGA at Weeks 4, 8, 12 and 16. • Mean percent change from baseline in NAPSI score of the worst affected fingernail at Week 16. • Quality of life as measured by DLQI at Weeks 4, 8, 12 and 16. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Various time points throughout the study - please refer to the detailed 'Time and Events Schedule' table in the protocol for full details. | — |
