Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures
  1. JNJ-77242113 and Placebo Group: Percentage of Participants Achieving an Investigator's Global Assessment (IGA) Score of 0 or 1 and Greater Than or Equal to (>=) 2-Grade Improvement From Baseline to Week 16
    Percentage of participants who achieve an IGA score of 0 or 1 and \>=2-Grade improvement from baseline to Week 16 will be reported. The IGA documents the investigator's assessment of the participants psoriasis at a given time point. Overall lesions are graded for induration, erythema, and scaling. The participant's psoriasis is assessed as cleared (0), minimal (1), mild (2), moderate (3), or severe (4).
  2. JNJ-77242113 and Placebo Group: Percentage of Participants Achieving Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) 90 Response at Week 16
    Percentage of participants achieving PASI 90 response (\>=90% improvement in PASI from baseline) at Week 16 will be reported. The PASI is a system used for assessing and grading the severity of psoriatic lesions and their response to therapy. In the PASI system, the body is divided into 4 regions: the head, trunk, upper extremities, and lower extremities. Each of these areas is assessed and scored separately for erythema, induration, and scaling, which are each rated on a scale of 0 to 4 and extent of involvement on a scale of 0 to 6. The PASI produces a numeric score that can range from 0 to 72. A higher score indicates more severe disease.
