The total duration of study will be 60 weeks. The study will consists of 2 parts; a Screening period and a Treatment period. In treatment period participants will receive either ustekinumab half standard dosage, ustekinumab standard dosage or Placebo. Participants receiving ustekinumab half standard dosage and ustekinumab standard dosage at Week 0, will receive placebo at Week 12 and participants receiving placebo at Week 0 will be randomly assigned to either ustekinumab half standard dosage or ustekinumab standard dosage Weeks 12, 16, 28, and 40.
