Brodalumab is an anti-IL-17 receptor antibody and blocks the inflammatory effects of IL-17 in the skin. Some psoriasis patients with a higher body weight experienced a lower treatment effect of brodalumab in clinical studies. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to investigate if increasing the dose of brodalumab will increase the effect of treatment for patients with a higher body weight. The study will run over 60-62 weeks, including screening, treatment period and safety follow-up, with the primary endpoint measurement at Week 40. Patients will receive subcutaneous injections of brodalumab at Week 0, 1, and 2, followed by injections every 2 weeks. Participants not fulfilling a predefined response at any time after Week 16 will receive a dose adjustment to 280 mg brodalumab or 210 mg brodalumab plus placebo every 2 weeks.
