Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ustekinumab in pediatric participants aged greater than or equal to (\>=) 6 through less than (\<) 12 years with moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis
Detailed description
This is an open label (identity of study drug will be known to participant and study staff) and multicenter (when more than one hospital or medical school team work on a medical research study) study. The participant population will be comprised of boys and girls who have had a diagnosis of plaque psoriasis for at least 6 months prior to first study drug administration and who have moderate to severe disease defined by Psoriasis Area and Severity Index score (PASI) \>=12, Physician's Global Assessment (PGA) \>=3, and Body Surface Area (BSA) \>=10 percent (%). The study consists of Screening Phase (up to 10 weeks before administration of the study drug), Treatment Period (Week 0 up to Week 52) and Safety follow up (Week 56). Participants will be primarily evaluated for efficacy, pharmacokinetics (PK) and safety. Following completion of the Week 52 visit, participants who have had a beneficial response from ustekinumab treatment as determined by the investigator, and who have not yet reached the age of 12 years or older in countries where marketing authorization for ustekinumab has been granted for the treatment of psoriasis in adolescent participants (12-17 years), and are willing to continue ustekinumab treatment, may enter the long-term extension period (from Week 56 through Week 264) of the study.
Interventions
Participants weighing less than (\<) 60 kilograms will receive ustekinumab 0.75 milligram per kilogram (mg/kg) at Weeks 0 and 4 followed by every 12 weeks dosing with the last dose at Week 40. Eligible participants for LTE period will continue to receive ustekinumab 0.75 mg/kg up to Week 248.
Participants weighing greater than or equal to (\>=) 60 kg to less than or equal to (\<=) 100 kg will receive ustekinumab 45 mg at Weeks 0 and 4 followed by every 12 weeks dosing with the last dose at Week 40. Eligible participants for LTE period will continue to receive ustekinumab 45 mg up to Week 248.
Participants weighing \>100 kg will receive ustekinumab 90 mg at Weeks 0 and 4 followed by every 12 weeks dosing with the last dose at Week 40. Eligible participants for LTE period will continue to receive ustekinumab 90 mg up to Week 248.

| Ustekinumab Standard Dosage Participants received ustekinumab standard weight-based dose at Weeks 0 and 4 followed by every 12 weeks (q12w) dosing up to Week 40. Ustekinumab was administered as subcutaneous (SC) injections of 0.75 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg) for participants with weight less than (\<) 60 kilograms (kg), 45 mg for participants with weight greater than or equal to (\>=) 60 kg to less than or equal to (\<=) 100 kg, and 90 mg for participants with weight \> 100 kg. Participants had a safety follow-up till Week 56 (Main study period). During long-term extension (LTE) period, participants who had a beneficial response from ustekinumab treatment continued receiving ustekinumab weight based dose in a q12w regimen from Week 56 onwards until commercially available or marketing authorization being denied or up to Week 264. | 44 |

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 percentage (%)-100% involvement), and for erythema, induration and scaling, which are each rated on a scale of 0 to 4 that is none to maximum severity. The PASI produces a numeric score that could range from 0 (no psoriasis) to 72 (disease severity). PASI 50, 75, 90, and 100 responders were defined as \>=50%, \>=75%, \>=90%, and 100% improvement in PASI component from Baseline respectively. TF criteria- discontinued study agent due to lack of efficacy or adverse event of psoriasis or who started protocol-prohibited medication/therapy.

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 that is none to maximum severity. The PASI produces a numeric score that can range from 0 (no psoriasis) to 72 (disease severity). A higher score indicates more severe disease. Participants with \>=90% improvement in PASI from baseline were considered PASI 90 responders.

The participant's psoriasis is assessed as cleared (0), minimal (1), mild (2), moderate (3), marked (4), or severe (5). Higher scores indicate worse disease.

The PGA is used to determine the participant's psoriasis at a given time point. Overall lesions are graded for induration, erythema, and scaling. The participant's psoriasis was assessed as cleared (0), minimal (1), mild (2), moderate (3), marked (4), or severe (5). Higher scores indicated worse disease.
Time frame: Weeks 80, 104, 128, 152, 176
Population: FAS; all participants enrolled in the LTE who received at least an injection of ustekinumab at Week 56 (partial or complete). Here N (number of participants analyzed) signifies participants who were evaluable for this outcome measure and 'n' (number analyzed): participants evaluated at given timepoints.

Percent Change From Baseline in PASI Score at Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, 28, 40, and 52
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 percentage (%)-100% involvement), and for erythema, induration and scaling, which are each rated on a scale of 0 to 4 that is none to maximum severity. The PASI produces a numeric score that could range from 0 (no psoriasis) to 72 (disease severity). PASI 100 responders were defined as 100% improvement in PASI from Baseline respectively. TF criteria- discontinued study agent due to lack of efficacy or adverse event of psoriasis or who started protocol-prohibited medication/therapy.
Time frame: Baseline and Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, 28, 40, 52
Population: FAS. For participants meeting one or more TF criteria, were considered to have 0% improvement from baseline. Here 'n' (number analyzed) included all participants who were evaluable at specified timepoints.
