Brief Summary: This is a long-term randomized multi-center open-label study of infliximab treatment in adults with moderate to severe plaque-type psoriasis This study is the long-term extension of Study P04271 NCT00251641 Study P04271 is a Phase 3b randomized parallel-group multicenter open-label 26-week study comparing the efficacy and safety of infliximab versus methotrexate in the treatment of adult subjects with moderate to severe plaque-type psoriasis The objectives of this study are to assess the efficacy and safety of long-term maintenance therapy versus intermittent therapy with 5 mgkg infliximab in a moderate to severe plaque-type psoriasis population

During an interim safety evaluation of the trial a higher incidence of serious and severe infusion reactions was observed in the intermittent treatment arm consisting of a re-induction cycle maximum of 4 infusions at 0 2 6 and 14 weeks after a period of no treatment compared with the maintenance arm infusions every 8 weeks without an interruption of treatment Consequently the sponsor has terminated the trial The label will be updated to reflect this new information relating to the use of a re-induction regimen with infliximab
