Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

Subject must have active psoriatic lesions or a history of psoriatic skin lesions
Subject must have active arthritis
Subject has had inadequate response to at least 1 nonbiologic Disease-Modifying Antirheumatic Drug (DMARD) (which may include methotrexate [MTX]) and/or 1 approved biologic DMARD
Subject must be taking concurrent MTX for at least 3 months at time of Screening, and be on a stable dose at least 4 weeks prior to Baseline
Female subject must be postmenopausal (at least 1 year), permanently sterilized or, if of childbearing potential, must be willing to use at least 2 effective methods of contraception during the study period
Subject has clinical laboratory test results within the reference ranges of the testing laboratory
Subject has Electrocardiogram (ECG) values within the reference ranges of the testing laboratory

Exclusion Criteria:

Subject has absolute neutrophil count <1.5×109/L, and/or lymphocyte count <1.0×109/L
Subject has known viral hepatitis, has a positive test for hepatitis B surface antigen or is hepatitis C virus antibody positive
Subject tests positive to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1/2 antibody
Subject has a past medical history or family history of primary immunodeficiency
Subject is splenectomized
Subject has had a severe infection requiring hospitalization and/or treatment with iv antibiotics in the 6 months before the Screening Visit
Subject has a history of positive tuberculosis (TB) test or evidence of possible TB or latent TB infection at Screening
Subject has a high risk of acquiring TB infection
Subject has a history of alcoholism or drug/chemical abuse
Subject has an active infection or has had a serious within 6 weeks before the first dose of Investigational Medicinal Product (IMP)
Subject has renal or liver impairment at the Screening Visit
Subject has active neoplastic disease or history of neoplastic disease within 5 years of study entry (except for basal or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin or carcinoma in situ which has been definitively treated with standard of care approaches and is considered cured at Screening)
Subject has any other acute or chronic illness which, in the opinion of the Investigator or Study Physician, could pose a threat or harm to the subject
Subjects must not have a diagnosis of any other inflammatory arthritis, eg, rheumatoid arthritis, sarcoidosis, or systemic lupus erythematosus
Subject has a current or past history of gastrointestinal ulceration
Subjects must not have a noninflammatory condition (eg, osteoarthritis or a known diagnosis of fibromyalgia) that in the Investigator's opinion is symptomatic enough to interfere with evaluation of the effect of IMP on the subject's primary diagnosis of Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA)
Subject has received a live vaccination within 6 weeks before the Screening Visit or intends to have or will need a live vaccination during the course of the study or for the 3 months following last IMP dosing
Subject has had an inadequate response to more than 1 approved biologic Drug-Modifying Antirheumatic Drug (DMARD)
Subject has received any investigational drug or experimental procedure within 90 days or 5 half-lives whichever is the longer before the first dose of UCB4940
