  • At SV2 and Visit 1, a clinical diagnosis of scalp psoriasis which is:

    • more than or equal to 20% of the scalp area, and
    • of at least moderate severity according to the investigator's global assessment of disease severity on the scalp.
  • Subjects with a normal HPA axis function at SV2 including serum cortisol concentration above 5 mcg/dl before ACTH challenge and serum cortisol concentration above 18 mcg/dl 30 minutes after ACTH challenge.

Inclusion Criteria (for subjects not performing HPA axis assessments):

  • At SV2 and Visit 1, a clinical diagnosis of scalp psoriasis which is:

    • more than or equal to 10% of the scalp area, and
    • of at least moderate severity according to the investigator's global assessment of disease severity on the scalp.

  • Current participation in any other interventional clinical trial.

  • Previously enrolled in this trial.

  • Subjects who have received treatment with any non-marketed drug substance (i.e., an agent which has not yet been made available for clinical use following registration) within a month prior to SV1 or longer, if the class of substance required a longer wash-out as defined above (e.g., biological treatments).
