RECRUITINGPercentage of Participants Achieving Absolute Psoriasis Area Severity Index (aPASI) <=3 at Week 20 Following Switch from Ustekinumab to Guselkumab
Percentage of participants achieving aPASI less than or equal to (\<=) 3 at Week 20 following the switch from Ustekinumab to Guselkumab will be reported.
