Eligibility criteria
Inclusion Criteria: * Capable of understanding and willing to provide signed and dated written voluntary informed consent (and any local or national authorization requirements) before any protocol-specific procedures are performed. * Male or female subjects at least 12 years old and in good general health. * Able to complete the study and to comply with study instructions. * Moderate plaque-type psoriasis on the body (excluding the scalp and face) defined as: * Plaque-type psoriasis involving 3% to 10% of total body surface area (BSA). * An Investigator's Static Global Assessment (ISGA) score of 3 at Baseline. * Identification of a target lesion (\>2 cm²) on the trunk or extremities with a score of 2 or 3 (0-5 scale) for erythema, scaling and plaque thickness. Lesions on the palms/soles, knees, elbow, and intertriginous areas should not be used as the target lesion site. * Involvement of at least 10% of the total scalp surface area with clinical signs (erythema, thickness, and scaliness) rated as moderate (3) based on the ISGA. * Negative urine pregnancy test for females of childbearing potential. • Sexually active females of childbearing potential participating in the study must agree to use a medically acceptable method of contraception while receiving protocol-assigned product. A woman of childbearing potential is defined as one who is biologically capable of becoming pregnant; including perimenopausal women who are fewer than 2 years from their last menses. Exclusion Criteria: * Any subject who has participated in any previous calcipotriene foam clinical. * Female who is pregnant, trying to become pregnant, or breastfeeding. * Known allergy or other adverse reaction to calcipotriene or other vitamin D analogs; or to any component of the investigational formulations. * History of hypercalcemia or of vitamin D toxicity. * Other serious skin disorder or any chronic medical condition that is not well-controlled. * Use of nonbiologic systemic anti-psoriatic therapy (eg, corticosteroids, psoralen combined with exposure to ultraviolet light A \[PUVA\], ultraviolet light B \[UVB\], retinoids, methotrexate, cyclosporine, other immunosuppressive agents) within 4 weeks prior to enrollment. * Systemic treatment with biological therapies (marketed or not marketed) with a possible effect on psoriasis within 4 weeks (etanercept), 2 months (adalimumab, alefacept, infliximab), 4 months (ustekinumab) or 4 weeks/5 half-lives (whichever is longer) for experimental products prior to randomization. * Use of topical therapies that have a known beneficial effect on psoriasis, including but not limited to corticosteroids, retinoids, Vitamin D derivatives, coal tar, or anthralin, within 2 weeks prior to enrollment. * Systemic medications for other medical conditions that are known to affect psoriasis (eg, lithium, beta adrenergic blockers) within 4 weeks prior to enrollment. * Use of any investigational product within 4 weeks prior to enrollment, currently participating in another clinical trial, or plans to receive an investigational product during the study. * Current drug or alcohol abuse (drug screening not required). * Has a history of any immuno-compromizing disease. * Any other condition that, in the judgment of the investigator, would put the subject at unacceptable risk for participation in the study. * Employees of the investigator; study center; or Stiefel, a GSK company involved in the study; or an immediate family member (eg, partner, offspring, parents, siblings or sibling's offspring) of an employee involved in the study.
