Adolescents aged 12 to under 18 years old with stable plaque psoriasis for 6 months or more, may qualify to participate. Individuals must have moderate to severe plaque psoriasis and be able to swallow study medication. Teens with a medical history of JPsA (juvenile psoriatic arthritis) or who report symptoms suggestive of JPsA at screening, must have a confirmed diagnosis.
This study consists of 2 parts. In Part A, participants will receive investigational oral medication (active study drug) in tablet form. In Part B, participants will receive either active study drug or placebo for the first 16 weeks, followed by active study drug up to Week 52. Study medication and study-related care will be provided at no cost. Reimbursement for study-related expenses will also be provided.
Study participation will last about 66 weeks in each part, and involve about 22 visits to the study centre in Part A, and 18 visits in Part B.

Brief Summary:
The purpose of this pediatric study is to evaluate the drug levels, efficacy and safety of Deucravacitinib in pediatric participants aged 4 to <18 years with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. This study includes two cohorts; Cohort 1 (age 12 to <18 years) and Cohort 2 (age 4 to <12 years), with two parts; for each cohort. Part A will evaluate the drug levels of BMS-986165 to enable selection of 2 dose levels to be studied in Part B. Part B will assess the efficacy and safety of two dose levels in pediatric participants with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. The 5-year long-term extension (LTE) period will observe the long-term safety and tolerability of deucravacitinib in pediatric participants with psoriasis who have completed Parts A or B of the study.
