Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Percentage of Participants Achieving Absolute Psoriasis Area Severity Index (aPASI) <=3 at Week 20 Following Switch from Ustekinumab to Guselkumab
Percentage of participants achieving aPASI less than or equal to (\<=) 3 at Week 20 following the switch from Ustekinumab to Guselkumab will be reported. PASI is a widely used measurement tool used to assess the severity of psoriasis. The PASI produces a numeric score that can range from 0 (no psoriasis) to 72. A higher score indicates more severe disease.
At Week 20
Secondary Outcomes (33)
Percentage of Participants Achieving aPASI <= 3 at Weeks 4, 12, 36 and 52
At Weeks 4, 12, 36 and 52
Percentage of Participants Achieving >= 75% Improvement in PASI (PASI 75) at Weeks 4, 12, 20, 36 and 52
At Weeks 4, 12, 20, 36 and 52
Percentage of Participants Achieving >= 90% Improvement in PASI (PASI 90) at Weeks 4, 12, 20, 36, and 52
At Weeks 4, 12, 20, 36 and 52
Percentage of Participants Achieving 100% Improvement in PASI (PASI 100) at Weeks 4, 12, 20, 36, and 52
At Weeks 4, 12, 20, 36 and 52
Absolute Changes in PASI Score from Baseline up to Weeks 4, 12, 20, 36 and 52

Study Arms (1)
Moderate to Severe Psoriasis: Guselkumab Switching From Ustekinumab
Participants with moderate-to-severe psoriasis who are candidates for systemic treatment (according to the guselkumab label) and who are medically indicated to switch from Ustekinumab or its biosimilar to receive Guselkumab in routine clinical practice will be enrolled. No drug will be provided as a part of this study. Only data available from routine clinical practice will be collected.
Eligibility Criteria
Participants with moderate-to-severe psoriasis who are candidates for systemic treatment (according to the Guselkumab label) and who are medically indicated to switch from Ustekinumab or its biosimilar to Guselkumab can be included in this study.
You may qualify if:
- Must have a confirmed diagnosis of moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis requiring systemic treatment
- Participants who are currently being treated with Ustekinumab (either the originator or its biosimilar) and who are medically indicated to switch to Guselkumab, or for whom this switch is medically indicated, based on the current and valid national psoriasis (PsO) therapeutic protocol
- Participants who, based on the Investigator's decision, should initiate treatment with Guselkumab
- Participants must sign an informed consent form (ICF) allowing for data collection and source data verification in accordance with local requirements
You may not qualify if:
- Contraindication or hypersensitivity to Guselkumab or any other ingredient in the injection solution
- Pregnancy or breastfeeding
- Currently enrolled in an interventional study
- Currently enrolled in an observational study sponsored or managed by a Janssen company
