The primary objectives of the study are to 1) compare the efficacy responses of CP 690,550 (5 mg BID and 10 mg BID) versus placebo following 24 weeks of CP 690,550 treatment and subsequent withdrawal of active treatment at various timepoints during the 16 week double blind active or placebo treatment period; 2) evaluate the regain of efficacy responses of CP 690,550 (5 mg BID and 10 mg BID) following 4 -16 weeks of CP 690,550 treatment withdrawal and subsequent re treatment; and 3) evaluate the safety and tolerability of CP 690,550 (5 mg BID and 10 mg BID) in subjects with moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis who are candidates for systemic therapy or phototherapy.

Percentage of Participants Maintaining a Psoriasis Area and Severity Index 75 (PASI75) Response During the Double-Blind Treatment Withdrawal Period (Period B)
The PASI quantifies the severity of a participant's psoriasis based on both lesion severity and the percent of body surface area (BSA) affected. PASI is a composite scoring by the investigator of degree of erythema, induration, and scaling (each scored separately) for each of 4 body regions (head and neck, upper limbs, trunk \[including axillae and groin\], and lower limbs \[including buttocks), with adjustment for the percent of BSA involved for each body region and for the proportion of the body region to the whole body. The PASI score can vary in increments of 0.1 and range from 0.0 to 72.0, with higher scores representing greater severity of psoriasis. PASI75 response defined as at least a 75 percent (%) reduction in PASI relative to baseline.
Time frame: Weeks 4, 8 12, and 16 (Period B)
Percentage of Participants Maintaining a Physician's Global Assessment (PGA) Response During the Double-Blind Treatment Withdrawal (Period B)
The PGA of psoriasis is scored on a 5-point scale, reflecting a global consideration of the erythema, induration, and scaling across all psoriatic lesions. Average erythema, induration, and scaling are scored separately over the whole body according to a 5-point severity scale (0=clear; 1=almost clear; 2=mild; 3=moderate; and 4=severe). PGA response defined as 0 (clear) or 1 (almost clear).

Combined assessment of lesion severity and area affected into single score; range=0(no disease)-72(maximal disease). Body divided into 4 sections=head, upper/lower limbs, trunk; each area scored by itself and scores combined for final PASI. For each section percent area of skin involved was estimated:0(0%)-6(90-100%) and severity estimated by clinical signs of erythema, induration, scaling; ranged 0-4: 0=none, 1=slight, 2=moderate, 3=marked, 4=very marked. Final PASI=sum of severity parameters for each section\*area score\*weighing factor (head=0.1, upper limbs=0.2, trunk=0.3, lower limbs=0.4).

Percentage of Participants by DLQI Severity Category During the Initial CP-690,550 Treatment (Period A)
The DLQI is a general dermatology questionnaire that consists of 10 items that assess health related quality of life (daily activities, personal relationships, symptoms and feelings, leisure, work and school, and treatment). Severity is measured using the following categories of scores: 0-1=no effect on patients' lives; 2-5=small effect; 6-10=moderate effect; 11-20=very large effect; 21-30=extremely large effect.

Mean Short-Form 36 (SF-36) Physical Component Summary (PCS) and Mental Component Summary (MCS) Scores During the Initial CP-690,550 Treatment (Period A)
The SF-36 is a general health status questionnaire that assesses 8 domains of functional health and well being: Physical Functioning, Role Limitations due to Physical Health Problems, Bodily Pain, Social Functioning, Mental Health, Role Limitations due to Emotional Problems, Vitality, and General Health Perceptions. The score for a section is an average of the individual question scores, which are scaled 0-100 (100=highest level of functioning). A PCS score and MCS score are based on a normalized sum of the 8 scale scores; PCS/MCS summary concept score = (raw score\*10) plus 50. Linear transformations were performed to transform scores to a mean of 50 and standard deviations (SDs) of 10, in the general population. In norm-based scoring, each scale is scored to have same average (50)/SD (10). With this method anytime a scale score is below 50, health status is below average, and each point is one-tenth of a SD. Higher scores indicate a better health related quality of life.
