Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	The Number of Participants With a Static Physician's Global Assessment (sPGA) Score of 0 or 1 in Participants Receiving BMS-986165 Compared to Placebo at Week 16 (sPGA 0/1)	The sPGA is a 5-point scale average assessment of all psoriatic lesions graded for erythema, scale, and induration. The sPGA measure determines psoriasis severity at a single point in time (without taking into account the baseline disease condition) as: clear (0), almost clear (1), mild (2), moderate (3), or severe (4). The average of the 3 scales, which is rounded to the nearest whole number, is the final sPGA score. The higher sPGA score denotes to more severe disease activity. sPGA 0/1 is the response as a number of participants who experience a sPGA score that determines psoriasis severity as 0 or 1 with at least a 2-point improvement from baseline using the non-responder imputation (NRI) method.; Non-responder imputation (NRI) will be used for participants who: Discontinue treatment or study prior to Week 16 or who have missing Week 16 endpoint data for any reason.	Week 16
Primary	The Number of Participants Who Achieve a 75% Improvement From Baseline in the Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) Score in Participants Receiving BMS-986165 Compared to Placebo at Week 16 (PASI 75)	The Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) is a quantitative rating scale for measuring the severity of psoriatic lesions based on area coverage and plaque appearance.; The PASI is a measure of the average erythema (redness), infiltration (thickness), and desquamation (scaling) of psoriatic skin lesions (each graded on a 0-4 scale), weighted by the area of involvement (head, arms, trunk to groin, and legs to top of buttocks). PASI produces a numeric score that can range from 0 to 72, with higher PASI scores denoting more severe disease activity. PASI 75 is the response as a number of participants who experience at least a 75% improvement in PASI score as compared with the baseline value using the non-responder imputation (NRI) method. Baseline is defined as the measurement at the randomization visit (Week 0).; Non-responder imputation (NRI) will be used for participants who: Discontinue treatment or study prior to Week 16 or who have missing Week 16 endpoint data for any reason.

PASI produces a numeric score that can range from 0 to 72, with higher PASI scores denoting more severe disease activity. PASI 90 is the response as a number of participants who experience at least a 90% improvement in PASI score as compared with the baseline value using the non-responder imputation (NRI) method. Baseline is defined as the measurement at the randomization visit (Week 0).; Non-responder imputation (NRI) will be used for participants who: Discontinue treatment or study prior to Week 16 or who have missing Week 16 endpoint data for any reason.	Baseline and Week 16
Secondary	The Number of Participants Who Achieve a 100% Improvement From Baseline in the Psoriasis Area and Severity Index Score at Week 16 (PASI 100)	The Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) is a quantitative rating scale for measuring the severity of psoriatic lesions based on area coverage and plaque appearance.; The PASI is a measure of the average erythema (redness), infiltration (thickness), and desquamation (scaling) of psoriatic skin lesions (each graded on a 0-4 scale), weighted by the area of involvement (head, arms, trunk to groin, and legs to top of buttocks). PASI produces a numeric score that can range from 0 to 72, with higher PASI scores denoting more severe disease activity. PASI 100 is the response as a number of participants who experience at least a 100% improvement in PASI score as compared with the baseline value using the non-responder imputation (NRI) method. Baseline is defined as the measurement at the randomization visit (Week 0).; Non-responder imputation (NRI) will be used for participants who: Discontinue treatment or study prior to Week 16 or who have missing Week 16 endpoint data for any reason.

The average of the 3 scales, which is rounded to the nearest whole number, is the final sPGA score. sPGA 0 is the response as a number of participants who experience a sPGA score that determines psoriasis severity as 0 using the non-responder imputation (NRI) method.; Non-responder imputation (NRI) will be used for participants who: Discontinue treatment or study prior to Week 16 or who have missing Week 16 endpoint data for any reason.	Week 16
Secondary	Change From Baseline in Psoriasis Symptoms and Signs Diary (PSSD) Symptom Score at Week 16	PSSD assesses the severity of 5 symptoms (itch, pain, stinging, burning, skin tightness) and 6 participant-observed signs (skin dryness, cracking, scaling, shedding or flaking, redness, bleeding). The severity of each item is rated on an 11-point numeric rating scale ranging from 0 (absent) to 10 (worst imaginable). Both symptom and sign scores are derived by averaging the questions and multiplying by 10. A total PSSD score ranging 0-100 will be derived from taking the average of the symptom and sign scores. 0 represents the least severe symptom/sign and 100 represents the most severe. Baseline is defined as the measurement at the randomization visit (Week 0).; A modified observation carried forward (mBOCF) approach will be used for missing data. The baseline observation will be carried forward for participants who discontinue study treatment for all analysis weeks after the assessment time point of discontinuation due to lack of efficacy and AEs.	Baseline and Week 16
Secondary	Psoriasis Symptoms and Signs Diary (PSSD) Symptom Score of 0 at Week 16	Psoriasis Symptoms and Signs Diary (PSSD) is an 11-item participant-reported instrument that assesses severity of symptoms and participant-observed signs commonly associated in plaque psoriasis. The PSSD assesses severity of 5 symptoms (itch, pain, stinging, burning, skin tightness) and 6 participant-observed signs (skin dryness, cracking, scaling, shedding or flaking, redness, bleeding) using 0 to 10 numerical ratings. The severity of each item is rated on an 11-point numeric rating scale ranging from 0 (absent) to 10 (worst imaginable) where the symptoms summary score is derived from the average of the scores. A higher score indicates more severe disease. PSSD 0 is the response as a number of participants who experience a PSSD symptom score that determines psoriasis severity as 0 among participants with a baseline PSSD symptom score >= 1 using the non-responder imputation (NRI) method.
