Criteria for
pharmacokinetics:
Primary endpoints: AUC0-tz and Cmax
Secondary endpoints: AUC0-  
Criteria for safety:
Adverse events (AEs) including clinically relevant findings from the physical 
examination, local tolerability, safety laboratory tests, 12-lead electrocardiogram 
(ECG), continuous ECG monitoring, vital signs (blood pressure [BP], pulse rate
[PR]) and oral body temperature
Statistical methods:
Relative bioavailability will be estimated by the ratios of the geometric means 
(test/reference) for the primary and secondary endpoints. Additionally, their two-
sided 90% confidence intervals (CIs) will be provided. This method corresponds to 
the two one-sided t-tests procedure, each at the 5% significance level. Since the 
main focus is on estimation and not testing, an acceptance range was not specified. 
The statistical model will be an ANOVA on the logarithmic scale including effects 
for ‘treatment’. CIs will be calculated based on the residual error from ANOVA.
Descriptive statistics will be calculated for all endpoints.

1.
Screening with subject information, informed consent as the first measure, includes physical examination, check of 
vital signs, ECG, safety laboratory (under fasting conditions), pregnancy test, drug screening, demographics 
(including determination of body height and weight, smoking and alcohol history), relevant medical history, 
concomitant therapy and review of inclusion/exclusion criteria.
2.
The time is approximate; procedures are to be performed and completed within 3 h prior to drug administration. 
Within 3 hours prior to the planned dosing, planned time -2:00 will be used.
3.
Laboratory tests (safety laboratory) include clinical chemistry, haematology, coagulation and urinalysis; in 
addition at screening: serology (HBV, HCV, HIV), and drug screening.
4.
PK sampling times may be adapted based on information obtained during trial conduct.
5.
Standardized assessment of local tolerability only for subcutaneous injection using the criteria swelling, induration, 
heat, redness, pain or other findings. 
6.
If several actions are indicated at the same time point, the intake of meals will be the last action.
7.
Confirmation of fitness includes physical examination.
 
9. 
At baseline, cytokine (IL1, IL6, TNF-and IFNsamples will be collected together with safety lab. Additional 
cytokine samples IL1, IL6, TNF-and IFNwill be collected at 4 h and 24 h post-dose. Cytokine samples are 
only to be analysed from an individual subject in case of specific adverse events in this subject that are suggestive 
for a cytokine release. At 4 h and 24 h post-dose no safety lab needs to be taken.
10.
Only drug screening and alcohol breath test.
11.
AEs and concomitant therapies will be recorded throughout the trial, but will be specifically asked for at the time 
points indicated in the Flow Chart above.
12.
EOT (End of trial examination) includes physical examination, body weight, vital signs, ECG, safety laboratory, 
recording of AEs and concomitant therapies. EOT to be performed not before last PK and ADA sampling. 
13.
Safety laboratory is to be taken within two days prior to study drug administration and can be omitted if the
screening examination is performed between Day -5 and Day -3.
14.
First measure after completion of infusion is the collection of PK sample
15.
In case plasma levels still exceed LOQ additional PK samples may be collected beyond Day 176 ±3.

INTRODUCTION
1.1
MEDICAL BACKGROUND
BI 655130 is a humanized antagonistic monoclonal IgG1 antibody blocking IL36α, IL36β,
and IL36γ by binding to IL36R. The IL36 pathway has been associated with the pathogenesis 
of several inflammatory diseases including generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP) and psoriasis 
vulgaris. Emerging preclinical data suggest that IL36R is a potential target for the treatment 
of inflammatory bowel diseases.
Genetic human studies have established a strong link between IL36R signaling and skin
inflammation as demonstrated by the occurrence of generalized pustular psoriasis in patients 
with a loss of function mutation in IL36Rthe gene encoding the endogenous inhibitor of 
IL36R, which resulted in uncontrolled IL36R signaling [R15-1421]; [R14-5158] .
IL36R has been discovered as a target for psoriasis based on (I) the abundant expression of
all three stimulating ligands in human psoriatic lesional skin as reviewed by Towne and Sims 
[R14-4037], (II) IL36α overexpression in murine keratinocytes inducing a psoriatic-like 
phenotype [R15-1432], (III) IL36R KO mice protecting against Imiquimod-induced skin 
inflammation [R15-1447] and (IV) IL36R blockade ameliorating skin inflammation in a 
transplanted psoriatic skin model [R15-1399].
The link between IL36R-driven inflammation and epithelial inflammation has led to the
hypothesis that IL36R signaling may play an important role in inflammatory bowel diseases.
This hypothesis was tested using a series of in vitro and in vivo assays. Immunostaining
studies demonstrated that both IL36R and its ligands are expressed in intestinal biopsies from
Crohn’s disease patients. Human IL36 ligands enhance intestinal barrier permeability, a
hallmark of IBD pathogenesis, in primary human intestinal epithelial cells co-cultured with 
intestinal myofibroblasts. The link between IL36R signaling and IBD was further strengthen 
by demonstrating that antagonist anti-mouse IL36R antibodies ameliorated intestinal 
inflammation in both acute chemically induced and chronic T cell driven murine colitis 
models. 
The therapeutic rational for an IL36R antagonist in IBD is further based on the correlation of 
a set of IL36-induced genes upregulated in primary human intestinal myofibroblasts, a 
disease relevant cell type, with gene signatures observed in ulcerative colitis and Crohn´s 
disease patients. Finally, IL36R signaling in disease relevant cells, such as intestinal 
myofibroblasts and macrophages, induces both pro-inflammatory and tissue remodeling 
related mediators (e.g. TGF-β, MMPs), which differentiates this mechanism from TNF-and 
IL23 pathways.
Altogether, these findings support a prominent role for IL36R in driving intestinal 
inflammation and position anti-human IL36R antibody BI 655130 as a first in class 
therapeutic for IBD and other epithelial-mediated inflammation such as systemic sclerosis 
(SSc) or idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). The therapeutic effect on GPP and PPP is also 
under evaluation; detailed background is provided in the IB [c03320877-02].

Crohn’s Disease (CD) is a chronic relapsing, remitting inflammatory disease of the 
gastrointestinal tract characterised by abdominal pain, fever, and bloody or mucus-containing 
diarrhoea [R13-2231]. The mainstay of treatment for moderate to severe CD has been with
glucocorticoid therapy, azathioprine, or 6-mercaptopurine [R13-2269]. More recently, 
biologics consisting of monoclonal antibodies directed at cytokines, thought to mediate the 
pathology, have been used extensively for this indication.
Ulcerative colitis (UC) has an estimated incidence of 1.2 to 20.3 cases per 100,000 persons 
per year, and a prevalence of 7.6 to 246.0 cases per 100,000 per year [R15-1343]. Like CD, 
UC is characterised clinically by abdominal pain, fever, and bloody or mucus-containing 
diarrhoea, and pathologically by inflammatory lesions in the gastrointestinal mucosa. UC 
differs from CD by the distribution of lesions, which in UC characteristically occur distal to 
the terminal ileum, and by the confinement of lesions to the mucosa and submucosa without 
transmural inflammation. Similar to CD, UC typically follows a relapsing and remitting 
course, and is associated with substantial acute and long-term morbidity and increased 
mortality. The mainstays of drug therapy for UC are the orally administered aminosalicylates, 
glucocorticoids, the oral immunomodulatory agents azathioprine and 6-mercaptopurine, and 
the biologic TNF antagonists. In patients with mild UC, 5-ASAs are a safe and effective
therapy. Glucocorticoids, immunomodulators, TNF antagonists, and more recently 
vedolizumab, an integrin α4β7 blocker, are reserved for patients with moderate to severe 
disease, in whom the primary goals of drug therapy are to induce and subsequently to 
maintain remission from signs and symptoms of active disease.
Treatment of CD and UC is associated with a significant number of patients with primary and 
secondary non-response. In addition, treatment may be limited due to safety and tolerability 
issues. Therefore, despite therapeutic progress, there remains a significant unmet medical 
need for new treatment options with an improved safety and efficacy profile compared to the 
current therapeutic standard.
1.2
DRUG PROFILE
1.2.1
Nonclinical pharmacology
BI 655130 is a humanized monoclonal IgG1 antibody (mAb) against human IL36R. To
minimize Fc effector functions, leucines at position 234 and 235 of the heavy chain were
mutated to alanine. The BI 655130 molecule is a heterodimer with a molecular weight of
approximately 146 kDa. Each heterodimer is composed of a heavy chain (449 amino acids)
and a light chain (215 amino acids). The four polypeptide chains of the antibody are linked
together by disulphide bonds. Each heavy polypeptide chain contains one consensus sequence 
for N-linked glycosylation. BI 655130 blocks IL36α-, IL36 β- and IL36 γ-induced signaling 
by binding to the IL36 receptor.
The functional inhibition of IL36-stimulated NF-B activation by BI 655130 was tested with
all three potent stimulating IL36R ligands on several human cell types, notably HT29 and
NCI/ADR-RES transformed epithelial cells, primary human keratinocytes, primary human
dermal fibroblasts, and primary human intestinal myofibroblasts. All cell types showed IC90
values of inhibition by BI 655130 in a consistent range of 0.7 to 3.7 nM. BI 655130 also

inhibits IL8 release with identical potency in human NCI/ADR-RES cells, keratinocytes, and 
intestinal myofibroblasts.
BI 655130 was also evaluated in a primary human peripheral blood mononuclear cells 
(PBMC) assay. Isolated human PBMC stimulated with IL36α, IL36β, or IL36γ show a 
synergistic induction of IFNγ secretion when combined with IL12, as exemplified for IL36β 
(please see IB, c03320877-02). Similar findings were observed in mouse splenocytes where
murine IL36 plus IL12 induced a synergistic production of IFN-γ (please see IB, 
c03320877-02), suggesting that the pathways utilized by IL36 to drive inflammatory cytokine 
production are conserved between mouse and human systems. These effects can be blocked
by BI 655130 and BI 674304 in human and mouse assays, respectively (please see IB, 
c03320877-02). Of note, BI 655130 alone does not stimulate cytokine production in human
PBMC, indicating that BI 655130 has a low potential to cause cytokine release. Neither the
addition of BI 655130 directly to whole blood or pre-bound to plastic (to mimic the effects of
mAb crosslinking) resulted in specific cytokine release.
For a more detailed description of the BI 655130 profile please refer to the current
Investigator’s Brochure (IB) [c03320877-02].
1.2.2
Safety pharmacology
Specific safety pharmacology studies have not been conducted with BI 655130 as it is not 
pharmacologically active in common toxicology species. Instead, studies were performed 
with BI 674304, the mouse specific anti-IL36R monoclonal antibody and used as a surrogate 
for BI 655130 (please see also Section 1.2.3). There were no clinical signs of toxicity in mice 
after the 13-week administration [c03320877-02].
1.2.3
Toxicology
As BI 655130 does not demonstrate sufficient cross-reactivity to IL36R from common 
toxicology species, including non-human primates, in vivo toxicity studies were not 
conducted. Instead, the potential adverse effects of IL36R antagonism were assessed in 
toxicity studies in mice using a mouse specific anti-IL36R monoclonal antibody (BI 674304).  
In addition, a human tissue cross-reactivity study and an in vitro cytokine release assay have 
been conducted with the clinical candidate BI 655130. Finally, the local tolerance of 
subcutaneous injections of BI 655130 has been evaluated in rabbits.
In a 13-week intravenous toxicity study of BI 674304 in mice, no adverse effects of IL36R 
antagonism were seen at a dose (
, twice weekly) that was 5-fold higher than the 
dose that was protective in an experimental mouse colonic inflammation model. In addition, 
in an embryo-fetal toxicity study, there was no evidence of effects on fetal growth or 
dysmorphogenesis (teratogenicity) in mice after administration of 
/dose of 
BI 674304 during gestation. The in vitro cytokine release and tissue cross-reactivity assays 
demonstrate that the risk of transient cytokine release in humans is low and that, as expected, 
BI 655130 stains epithelium in a variety of tissues. There were no signs of local irritation 
after single, 
 injections of the subcutaneous formulation in rabbits. These preclinical 
data suggest that BI 655130 can be safely administered to humans for up to 13 weeks.

1.2.4
Nonclinical pharmacokinetics
The pharmacokinetics of BI 655130 was studied in cynomolgus monkeys. In mice, 
pharmacokinetic studies were performed with the mouse-specific anti-IL36R antibody, 
BI 674304 [c03320877-02].
1.2.5
Clinical experience
BI 655130 has been evaluated in two clinical trials: a first-in-human (FIH) SRD trial (1368.1, 
completed) and a MRD trial (1368.2, on-going).
The FIH (first-in-human) trial [c09985235-01] was conducted according to a single-blind,
partially randomised, single rising dose and placebo-controlled (within dose groups) 
design.The study explored safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of
intravenously administered BI 655130 in healthy male subjects. Subjects received single 
ascending IV doses of
, to
 body weight or placebo. Overall, the study 
included 78 male subjects with 58 subjects treated with BI 655130 and 20 subjects treated 
with placebo.
Trial 1368.2 [c09105854-04] explored the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and 
pharmacodynamics of multiple rising intravenous doses of BI 655130 in a double-blind, 
partially randomised within dose groups, placebo-controlled, parallel group design and of one 
single intravenous dose of BI 655130 in a single-blind, partially randomised, placebo-
controlled design. A total of 32 healthy male subjects were randomised to 4 sequential groups 
comprising 8 subjects per group. The study consisted of a multiple dose part with three dose 
groups 
and 
 and a single dose arm 
 Within each 
dose group, 6 subjects received the active drug and 2 received placebo. Subjects assigned to 
the multiple dose part received single intravenous doses within 4 weeks (on Day 1, Day 8, 
Day 15, and Day 22). The study is still ongoing, though treatment of all four dose groups has 
been completed.
Safety and tolerability
In the FIH study [c09985235-01], 49 of 78 subjects (62.8%) reported at least 1 treatment-
emergent AE (TEAE). This included 36 of 58 subjects (62.1%) following administration of 
BI 655130 and 13 of 20 subjects (65.0%) following administration of placebo. There was no 
apparent relationship between the frequency of AEs and the dose. AEs categorised as related 
to treatment were observed in 3/20 (15.0%) subjects in the placebo group and in 8/58 (13.8%) 
subjects treated with BI 655130.
Treatment-emergent AEs were reported most frequently in the system organ classes 
'infections and infestations' (BI 655130: 14/58 subjects [24.1%]; placebo: 3/20 subjects 
[15.0%]), 'general disorders and administration site conditions' (BI 655130: 9/58 subjects

system disorders' (BI 655130: 5/58 subjects [8.6%]; placebo: 3/20 subjects [15.0%]).
At preferred term level, the most frequently reported treatment-emergent AEs were 
nasopharyngitis (BI 655130: 12/58 subjects [20.7%]; placebo: 3/20 subjects [15.0%]), 
headache (BI 655130: 5/58 subjects [8.6%]; placebo: 3/20 subjects [15.0%]), influenza like
illness (BI 655130: 4/58 subjects [6.9%]; placebo: 2/20 subjects [10.0%]), and diarrhoea 
(BI 655130: 2/58 subjects [3.4%]; placebo: 2/20 subjects [10.0%]).
There were two AEs of moderate intensity, both considered non related to the study drug, 
(injection site hematoma, headache); all remaining AEs were of mild intensity. 
There were no relevant changes compared to placebo for laboratory safety, including clinical 
chemistry, hematology, coagulation parameters, and urinalysis. No clinically relevant 
changes were observed in 12 lead ECGs, vital signs, physical exams and cardio-monitoring.
Based on a preliminary evaluation of Trial 1368.2, 27 of 32 subjects (84.4%) reported at least 
1 TEAE. The frequency of subjects with AEs was similar in subjects treated with
BI 655130 (range 66.7% to 100%) and placebo (87.5%). AEs categorised as related to 
treatment were observed in 11 of the 32 subjects (34.4%) overall (BI 655130 groups: 16.7% 
to 66.7%; placebo: 25.0%); Table 1.2.5: 1.

Treatment-emergent AEs were reported most frequently in the system organ class 'general 
disorders and administration site conditions' (overall: 20/32 subjects [62.5%], BI 655130 
groups: 50.0% to 66.7%, placebo: 75.0%). At preferred term level, the most frequently 
reported treatment-emergent AEs were injection site erythema (overall: 9/32 subjects 
[28.1%], BI 655130 groups: 0.0% to 50.0%, placebo: 25.0%), nasopharyngitis (overall: 
7/32 subjects [21.9%], BI 655130 groups: 16.7% to 33.3%, placebo: 12.5%), and headache
(overall: 7/32 subjects [21.9%], BI 655130 groups: 16.7% to 33.3%, placebo: 12.5%).
BI 655130 was well tolerated in Trial 1368.2. There were no AEs considered to be dose 
limiting, no dose dependency, and no SAEs. All subjects completed the treatment per 
protocol. In all cases, the AEs were of mild intensity and resolved without further measures.
Based on the preliminary evaluation, there were no clinically relevant abnormalities on 
treatment with BI 655130 with respect to safety laboratory, ECG, and vital signs.
Pharmacokinetics
Trial 1368.1 PK parameters of BI 655130 after a single IV infusion are shown in 
Table 1.2.5:2. BI 655130 levels were first detected at a dose level of 
. AUC0-inf
results should be considered for informational purposes only given the high %_AUC of 
extrapolated values (>50%) for the 
 dose groups. Exposure in terms of AUC0-
tz and Cmax of BI 655130 increased with increasing dose in a greater than dose-proportional 
manner from 
 and in a dose-proportional manner from 
 
. In the higher dose groups with apparent linear PK characteristics 
 
the half-life (t1/2) of BI 655130 was in the range of 20.4 to 33.9 days. However, because of 
the relatively short sampling time, these values should be considered an estimate only.
Overall, PK data suggest target-mediated drug disposition (TMDD) kinetics for 
BI 655130.

Pharmacodynamics
Pharmacodynamic effects in Trials 1368.1 (SRD) and 1368.2 (MRD) were assessed by
indirect target engagement (ITE) of IL36R by BI 55130 using an ex-vivo whole blood
stimulation assay. Whole blood was taken before and after treatment of subjects with BI
655130 or placebo and stimulated with IL36γ ligand. After preparation of plasma, the
resulting production of macrophage inflammatory protein (MIP)-1β was quantified via an
immunoassay as an exploratory biomarker. MIP-1β levels are expected to inversely correlate
with the level of IL36R engagement by BI 655130.
In the single rising dose trial (1368.1), doses of 
 and above showed percent inhibition 
of MIP-1β of at least 94% as compared to baseline during the entire time course up to 1680 h. 
Furthermore, in the interim analysis of ITE  in the multiple rising dose trial (1368.2) for dose 
groups evaluated so far, the inhibition of MIP-1β was at least 91% as compared to baseline 
during the entire time course up to 672 h for 
 and 
 dose groups as compared 
to placebo. This demonstrates that BI 655130 is on-target for the time points analyzed.
For a more detailed description of the BI 655130 profile please refer to the current
Investigator’s Brochure (IB) [c03320877-02].

RATIONALE, OBJECTIVES, AND BENEFIT - RISK 
ASSESSMENT
2.1
RATIONALE FOR PERFORMING THE TRIAL
BI 655130 is in development for the treatment of GPP, PPP, CD, and UC. BI 655130 is 
currently in Phase I development.
Recently, a FIH trial has been completed (see Section 1.2.5) that explored safety, tolerability, 
pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of BI 655130 following IV infusions of single 
rising doses of 
 up to 
 body weight in a healthy male population. 
BI 655130 was safe and well tolerated. A second Phase I trial investigating multiple 
intravenous doses is ongoing (Trial 1368.2, c09105854-04).
BI 655130 was administered as intravenous infusion in the initial Phase I studies; however, a 
subcutaneous injection formulation is planned for upcoming studies to support self-
administration by the patient. The current study is designed to examine the characteristics of 
the newly developed subcutaneous formulation with particular focus on relative 
bioavailability compared to an intravenous formulation and local tolerability.
2.2
TRIAL OBJECTIVES
The primary objective of this trial is to investigate the relative bioavailability of 
 of 
BI 655130 following subcutaneous administration (Test, T) compared to 
 of 
BI 655130 following intravenous infusion (Reference, R).
The secondary objective is the evaluation and comparison of several pharmacokinetic 
parameters between all tested treatments
 BI 655130 SC, 
 BI 655130 SC, and 
 BI 655130 IV).
The assessment of safety and tolerability, including the standardised assessment of local 
tolerability, will be an additional objective of this trial.
A description of the endpoints to be determined, and the observations along with specific 
information on how to collect the data for that information, is provided in Section 5.
2.3
BENEFIT - RISK ASSESSMENT
Participation in this study is without any (therapeutic) benefit for healthy subjects. Their 
participation in the study, however, is of major importance to investigate a newly developed 
subcutaneous formulation which is considered crucial for long-term studies in patients. The 
subjects are exposed to the risks of the study procedures and the risks related to the exposure 
to the trial medication.

Procedure-related risks
The use of an indwelling venous catheter for the purpose of blood sampling may be 
accompanied by mild bruising and also, in rare cases, by transient inflammation of the wall of 
the vein. The same applies for further blood sampling and subcutaneous administration of 
study drug. In rare cases a nerve might be injured while inserting the venous catheter/ 
cannula, potentially resulting in paresthesia, reduced sensibility, and/or pain for an indefinite 
period. The same risks apply to venipuncture for blood sampling.
The total volume of blood withdrawn during the entire study per subject will not exceed the 
volume of a normal blood donation 
 No health-related risk to healthy subjects is 
expected from this blood withdrawal.
Drug-related risks and safety measures
BI 655130 does not bind to IL36R from common toxicology species. Therefore, the mouse 
reactive mAb, BI 674304, was used to characterize the potential effects of IL36R antagonism 
in vitro and in vivo. The decision to conduct toxicity studies with a mouse reactive 
monoclonal antibody was based on the ICH S6 (R1) guidance and took into account the 
sequence homology and in vitro binding and activity assays. Binding/biologic activity is
insufficient in common toxicology species to adequately evaluate the potential toxicities 
related to IL36R antagonism with BI 655130. It is anticipated that the degree of biologic 
activity is more important for assessing potential toxicity related to exaggerated 
pharmacology than binding affinity. 
The clinical safety and tolerability profile of intravenous single doses of BI 655130 was
comparable to placebo in male subjects with intravenous single doses up to 
 body 
weight. There were no withdrawals for adverse events or abnormal laboratory values. There 
were no deaths or other serious adverse events. The adverse events reported had no apparent 
dose or exposure relationship. There were no dose or exposure related abnormalities in safety 
laboratory parameters and no safety or tolerability concerns that would preclude further 
clinical development of BI 655130.
Nonclinical studies support repeat-dose clinical trials of up to 13 weeks duration. In a 
13-week intravenous toxicity study of BI 674304 in mice, no adverse effects of IL36R 
antagonism was seen at a dose 
 twice weekly) that was 5-fold higher than the dose 
that was protective in an experimental mouse colonic inflammation model. 
For the first trial with the new subcutaneous formulation, a maximum dose of 
 
 injection volume) was selected. This dose is significantly lower than the maximum 
tested intravenous single dose of 
 in the previous single rising dose study and 
considered to be safe (see Section 1.2.5). The same is true for the other planned doses of 
 SC and 
 IV.

Based on the preceding FIH study, no specific drug-related risks are anticipated. 
Nevertheless, the following safety measures are/will be applied in this study in order to 
minimize the risk for the healthy subjects:

Careful dose selection based on data from the completed FIH study; the exposure of 
any dose of BI 655130 in the current study is projected to be below the highest 
exposure observed in the FIH study

For safety reasons, the study will start with the lowest SC dose of 
 of 
BI 655130. The dose group will be divided into 2 cohorts: on the first study day, 
6 subjects will be treated, with an interval between the injections of at least 15 min. 
The second cohort will be treated at least 48 h apart. There will be an interval of at 
least 1 week after the first dosing in the 
 SC dose group before the start of the 
 SC or IV dose groups in a randomised sequence (in one week 6 subjects on 
IV and 6 subjects on SC and in the following week again 6 + 6) Nomore than 2 
subjects should simultaneously receive an infusion. At any time during the ongoing 
study, further dosing will be stopped in case of safety and tolerability concerns based 
on the criteria defined in Section 3.1

Dose escalation will be shallow (2-fold dose escalation step). In addition, a time 
interval of at least 7 days will be maintained between the first dosing of 
 of 
BI 655130 SC and the first dosing of 
 of BI 655130 SC or IV. An interval of 
one week between the dose groups is expected to cover the period of highest risk / 
peak effect. The decision to proceed to the next dose will be based upon the safety 
and tolerability of the preceding dose. The next dose will only be given if no safety 
concerns arise in the previous dose group (i.e. no dose-limiting events occur) and if 
none of the pre-specified trial-specific stopping criteria are met (see Section 3.3).

The dose will only be escalated if previously approved by the Principal Investigator 
(or an authorised deputy) and the trial clinical monitor (or an authorised deputy) after 
in-depth analysis of all available safety data (see Section 3.1)

Monitoring of ECG and vital signs is incorporated, with continuous ECG monitoring 
over 1.5 hour post dose after each drug administration, the anticipated period of 
highest drug exposure. As an additional measure, repeated single 12-lead ECGs are 
scheduled in the further course of the study. The rationale for the intensified ECG 
monitoring is not an expected increased risk of BI 655130 mediated effects on cardiac 
repolarization 

Extensive safety laboratory testing will be performed (Table 5.2.3:1)

After each dosing, the subjects will stay at the site for at least 48 hours following drug 
administration

While admitted to the trial site, the subjects will be under close medical observation 
and thoroughly monitored for both expected and unexpected adverse events

With IV administration, treatment with BI 655130 can be immediately discontinued,
should any safety concern arise (please refer to Section 4.1.4)

BI 655130 will be administered in a hospital setting and subjects will be under close 
medical observation during their hospitalisation (see Section 6.2), as well as after their 
discharge and until the end of observation period. Safety will be closely monitored 
during site visits
Currently there are no data available to suggest interactions of BI 655130 [c03320877-02].

Although rare, a potential for drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is under constant surveillance 
by sponsors and regulators. Therefore, this study requires timely detection, evaluation, and 
follow-up of alterations in selected liver laboratory parameters to ensure subjects´ safety.
As an antagonist of IL36R, BI 655130 affects a target of the immune system that is
ubiquitously expressed. Due to the antagonistic effect, it is considered unlikely that 
BI 655130 may lead to an amplification of an effect that might not be sufficiently controlled 
by a physiologic feedback mechanism. In addition, preclinical investigations and the 
completed FIH trial did not suggest cytokine release induced by BI 655130.  
Based on the preclinical and initial clinical information for BI 655130, healthy subjects are 
not expected to be exposed to undue risks and adverse events in relation to the information 
expected from this trial. Considering the medical need for the development of an effective 
and well tolerated drug for the therapy of inflammatory bowel disease (and GPP flares), the 
benefit of this trial is considered to outweigh the potential minimal risks and justifies the 
exposure of healthy subjects.

DESCRIPTION OF DESIGN AND TRIAL POPULATION
3.1
OVERALL TRIAL DESIGN AND PLAN
This study will explore the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of a newly developed
SC formulation of BI 655130 at two different dose strengths of 
 and
 
 in an open-label, sequential group design. Furthermore, the relative bioavailability of
the 
 SC dose (Test) will be compared with one single 
 IV dose of BI 655130 
(Reference) in an open-label, , parallel group design). For details refer to Section 4.1. Each 
participating subject will receive only one dose. Subjects assigned to the 
 IV dose will 
be matched for gender and body weight (± 10%) to subjects receiving the 
 SC dose.
The study will start with the lowest SC dose of 
 of BI 655130. The dose group will be 
divided into 2 cohorts: on the first study day, 6 subjects will be treated, with an interval 
between the injections of at least 15 min. The second cohort will be treated at least 48 h apart. 
There will be an interval of at least 1 week after the first dosing in the 
 SC dose group 
before the start of the 
 SC or IV dose groups in a randomised sequence (in one week 
6 subjects on IV and 6 subjects on SC and in the following week again 6 + 6). No more than 
2 subjects should simultaneously receive an IV infusion. At any time during the ongoing 
study, further dosing will be stopped in case of safety and tolerability concerns based on the 
pre-specified trial-specific stopping criteria (Section 3.3.4.2).
A documented Safety Review must take place prior to dose escalation to 
 
Furthermore, an unscheduled safety review meeting can be requested anytime for any 
reasonable cause by the Principal Investigator (or an authorised deputy) or the sponsor of the 
study, e.g. because of any unforeseen adverse events. Dose escalation will only be permitted 
if no safety concerns exist in the opinion of the Principal Investigator (or an authorised 
deputy) and the trial clinical monitor (or an authorised deputy). In addition, at least 
6 evaluable subjects per dose level are required to decide about dose escalation to the 
dose level.
The minimum data set for review consists of the following data:

AEs (including clinically relevant findings from ancillary safety testing listed below) 
(Note: AEs may be ongoing at the time of Safety Reviews and AE information may 
be subject to change prior to Database Lock)

Results from 12-lead ECG and continuous ECG monitoring 

Vital signs 

Clinical laboratory tests 

Check of criteria for stopping subject treatment as per Section 3.3.4.1
The decision to escalate the dose will be made jointly by the Principal Investigator (or an 
authorised deputy) and the trial clinical monitor (or an authorised deputy) after in-depth 
analysis of all available safety data, especially SAEs (if occurred), AEs and out-of-range 
laboratory results (if considered clinically significant). Safety Reviews can be conducted

face-to-face or by video/telephone conference. The trial clinical monitor is responsible for 
organisation and minutes of the reviews. Minutes will be signed off by the Principal 
Investigator (or an authorised deputy) and filed in the ISF and TMF.
An overview of all relevant trial activities is provided in the Flow Chart. For visit schedule 
and details of trial procedures at selected visits, refer to Sections 6.1 and 6.2, respectively.
3.1.1
Administrative structure of the trial
The trial is sponsored by Boehringer Ingelheim (BI) Pharma GmbH & Co. KG, Germany.
BI has appointed a Trial Clinical Monitor, responsible for coordinating all required activities, 
in order to 
-
manage the trial in accordance with applicable regulations and internal SOPs,
-
direct the clinical trial team in the preparation, conduct, and reporting of the trial,
-
ensure appropriate training and information of local clinical monitors (CML), Clinical 
Research Associates (CRAs), and participating trial sites.
The trial will be conducted at the
 
 under the supervision of the Principal Investigator. 
The trial medication will be provided by the Clinical Trial Supplies Unit (CTSU), BI Pharma 
GmbH & Co. KG, Biberach, Germany. 
Safety laboratory tests will be performed by 
 
On-site monitoring will be performed by BI or a contract research organisation appointed by 
BI.
Data management and statistical evaluation will be done by BI according to BI SOPs or a 
contract research organisation appointed by BI.
Tasks and functions assigned in order to organise, manage, and evaluate the trial are defined 
according to BI SOPs. A list of responsible persons and relevant local information can be 
found in the ISF.
3.2
DISCUSSION OF TRIAL DESIGN, INCLUDING THE CHOICE OF 
CONTROL GROUP
The trial will be conducted open-label. Blinding is not possible because the treatments are 
distinguishable. The open-label treatment is not expected to bias results, since the relative 
bioavailability endpoints are derived from measurement of plasma concentrations of the 
analyte.
For safety reasons, the trial will be conducted in a fixed sequence; a time interval of at least 
7 days will be maintained between the first dosing of 
 of BI 655130 SC and the first 
dosing of 
 of BI 655130 SC or IV.

No placebo group is included because the study is open-label with a focus on PK. Local 
tolerability is an additional objective  and will remain  relevant in case of dose limiting local 
AEs, whether placebo controlled or not. The systemic AEs have been evaluated up to 
 MRD, a far higher dose than planned for the current study.
3.3
SELECTION OF TRIAL POPULATION
It is planned that 36 healthy male and female subjects (12 subjects per treatment group) will 
enter the study. They will be recruited from the volunteers' pool of the trial site. Healthy 
subjects of the IV dose group will be matched for gender and body weight (± 10%) to 
subjects of the 
 SC dose group.
A log of all subjects enrolled into the trial (i.e. having given informed consent) will be 
maintained in the ISF at the investigational site irrespective of whether they have been treated 
with investigational drug or not.

Female subjects will not be allowed to participate if any of the following applies:
22. Positive pregnancy test, pregnancy or plans to become pregnant within 30 days after 
study completion
23. Lactation 
For study restrictions, refer to Section 4.2.2.
3.3.4
Removal of subjects from therapy or assessments
3.3.4.1
Removal of individual subjects
An individual subject is to be removed from the trial if:
1. The subject withdraws consent for trial treatment or trial participation, without the need to 
justify the decision
2. The subject needs to take concomitant drugs that interfere with the investigational  
product or other trial medication
3. The subject is no longer able to participate for other medical reasons (such as pregnancy, 
surgery, adverse events, or diseases)
4. An AE or clinically significant laboratory change or abnormality occurred that the 
investigator judges to warrant discontinuation of treatment. This may include cases of 
sustained symptomatic hypotension (BP <90/50 mmHg) or hypertension (BP >180/100 
mmHg) or of clinically relevant changes in ECG requiring intervention as well as 
unexplained liver enzyme elevations at any time during the trial
5. The subject shows an elevation of AST and/or ALT ≥3-fold ULN combined with an 
elevation of total bilirubin ≥2-fold ULN (measured in the same blood sample) and/or 
marked peak aminotransferase (ALT and/or AST) elevations ≥10-fold ULN and/or needs 
to be followed up according to the ‘DILI checklist’ provided in the ISF
In addition to these criteria, the physician may discontinue subjects at any time based on his 
or her clinical judgment.
Infusion reactions could also lead to the removal of an individual subject. However, in mild 
transient cases of infusion reactions (with clinical symptoms such as dizziness, headache, 
nausea) requiring no treatment, the clinical investigator may pause the infusion or continue 
with a reduced infusion rate as described for other therapeutic proteins [P16-06636]. 
However, the overall infusion time (including time of discontinuation) must not exceed 
45 minutes.
A subject can also be removed from the trial if eligibility criteria are being violated or if the 
subject fails to comply with the protocol (for instance, by non-adherence to dietary rules, or 
non-attendance at study assessments).
If a subject is removed from or withdraws from the trial prior to first administration of trial 
medication, the data of this subject will not be entered in the case report form (CRF) or trial 
database and will not be reported in the clinical trial report (CTR). If a subject is removed

from or withdraws from the trial after first administration of trial medication, this will be 
documented and the reason for discontinuation must be recorded in the CRF. In this case, the 
data will be included in the CRF/trial database and will be reported in the CTR. At the time 
of discontinuation a complete end of trial examination will be performed if possible and the 
information will be recorded in the CRFs. If the discontinuation occurs before the end of the 
REP (see Section 5.2.2.2), the discontinued subject should if possible be questioned for AEs 
and concomitant therapies at or after the end of the REP in order to ascertain collection of 
AEs and concomitant therapies throughout the REP, if not contrary to any consent 
withdrawal of the subject. These discontinuations will be discussed in the CTR.
If it is known that a subject becomes pregnant during the trial, the subject has to be removed 
from the trial. The subject is to be followed until she has given birth or until the end of 
pregnancy. The subject’s data are to be collected until the end of the trial (last visit of last 
subject) and reported in the CTR. For reporting of pregnancy and all related events refer to 
Section 5.2.2.2.
3.3.4.2
Discontinuation of the trial by the sponsor
Boehringer Ingelheim reserves the right to discontinue the trial at any time for any of the 
following reasons:
1. New toxicological findings or serious adverse events invalidate the earlier positive 
benefit-risk-assessment. More specifically, the trial will be terminated if more than 50% 
of the subjects show drug-related and clinically relevant adverse events of moderate or 
severe intensity, or if at least one drug-related serious adverse event is reported that is
considered to be unacceptable
2. The expected enrolment goals are not met
3. Violation of GCP, or the CTP, or the contract with BI by the trial site or investigator, 
disturbing the appropriate conduct of the trial
4. The sponsor decides to discontinue the further development of the investigational product
5. Dose escalation will be stopped if at least 2 subjects at one dose level show relevant 
individual QT prolongation, i.e. a QTc increase of greater 60 ms from baseline in 
connection with absolute QT or QTc greater than 500 ms, which has been confirmed by a 
repeat ECG recording
The investigator / the trial site will be reimbursed for reasonable expenses incurred in case of 
trial termination (except in case of the third reason).
3.3.5
Replacement of subjects
In case some subjects do not complete the trial, the trial clinical monitor together with the 
trial pharmacokineticist and the trial statistician are to decide if and how many subjects will 
be replaced. A replacement subject will be assigned a unique study subject number, and will 
be assigned to the same treatment as the subject he replaces.

planned visit dates. The subjects willing to participate will be recruited to dose groups 
according to their temporal availability. As soon as enough subjects have been allocated to 
1 of the 6 dose cohorts (2 cohorts per dose group), the following subjects will be allocated to 
one of the other dose cohorts. Therefore, the allocation of subjects to dose cohorts is not

influenced by trial personnel, but only by the subjects’ temporal availability. As the study 
includes healthy subjects from a homogenous population, relevant imbalances between the 
dose groups are not expected.
The list with study subject numbers and allocated treatments will be provided to the trial site 
in advance. The allocation of subjects to study subject numbers will be performed prior to the 
first administration of trial medication. For this purpose, the subjects will be allocated to a 
study subject number by drawing lots. Once a subject number has been assigned, it cannot be 
reassigned to any other subject.
The subject number procedure is described in Section 7.5.
4.1.3
Selection of doses in the trial
The doses selected for this trial are based on data from Study 1368.1 (see Section 1.2.5) and 
correspond to potential doses used in upcoming clinical trials in patients.
4.1.4
Drug assignment and administration of doses for each subject
The treatments to be evaluated are as outlined in Table 4.1.4: 1. Each subject will receive one
single dose of trial medication. For further details concerning timing, see the Flow Chart.
Detailed instructions for the preparation of the SC injection and IV infusion solutions are 
provided in the ISF.

Subcutaneous injection
Following an overnight fast of at least 10 hours, the medication will be administered. Trial 
drug will be injected subcutaneously within 60 seconds in the abdominal region. Detailed 
handling instructions will be provided in the ISF. Subjects will be kept under close medical
surveillance until 48 hours following drug administration. For restrictions with regard to diet,
see Section 4.2.2.2.
Intravenous infusion
Following an overnight fast of at least 10 hours, the medication will be administered. The 
infusion solution will be administered intravenously over 30 minutes. Start and time of the 
infusion will be recorded. Detailed handling instructions for the infusion will be provided in 
the ISF.
In case of safety concerns, e.g. due to infusion reactions, it is at the discretion of the 
investigator or his/her designee to adapt the infusion scheme, including but not limited 
slowing down the infusion rate, stopping of the infusion and, provided no further safety

concern exist, restarting at a slower rate. Further, based on his/her medical judgment the 
investigator will provide medications such as steroids, etc. as needed.
For administration of the infusion, an intravenous indwelling catheter is placed into an arm 
vein of the subject and will be kept patent with a saline infusion. A second indwelling 
catheter used for collection of blood samples will be placed on the contralateral arm.
The administration of the trial medication will be done under supervision of the investigating 
physician or a designee. The so-called four-eye principle (two-person rule) should be applied 
for administration of trial medication and – if applicable – its preparation, if correct dosage 
cannot be ensured otherwise. For the purpose of drug accountability, the infusion set will be 
weighed before and after drug administration.
Subjects will be kept under close medical surveillance until 48 h following drug 
administration. For restrictions with regard to diet see Section 4.2.2.2.
4.1.5
Blinding and procedures for unblinding
No blinding will be performed because the treatments are distinguishable from each other. 
This Phase I trial will be handled in an open fashion throughout (that is, during the conduct, 
including data cleaning and preparation of the analysis). This is considered acceptable 
because the potential for bias seems to be low and does not outweigh practical considerations.
PK samples will be labelled in such a way that treatment allocation cannot be derived by the 
analytical site.
4.1.6
Packaging, labelling, and re-supply
Drug supplies will be provided by the Department of Pharmaceutical Development of 
Boehringer Ingelheim Pharma GmbH & Co. KG, Biberach, Germany.
The clinical trial supply consists of containers holding the trial medication which are labelled 
with trial identification. The required information according to the Annex 13/EU GMP 
Guideline will be provided on the containers. The clinical trial supply containers will be
labelled with:

BI trial number

Name of product and strengths or identification code

Pharmaceutical dosage form, quantity of dosage units 

Route and mode of administration

Term ‘For Clinical Trial Use’ (domestic language)

Sponsor name and address

Storage conditions

Use-by date

Batch number


No re-supply is planned.
4.1.7
Storage conditions
Drug supplies will be kept in their original packaging and in a secure limited access storage 
area according to the recommended (labelled) storage conditions. Where necessary, a 
temperature log must be maintained to make certain that the drug supplies are stored at the 
correct temperature. If the storage conditions are found to be outside the specified range, the 
local clinical monitor (as provided in the list of contacts) is to be immediately contacted.
4.1.8
Drug accountability
The investigator / pharmacist / investigational drug storage manager will receive the 
investigational drugs delivered by the sponsor when the following requirements are fulfilled:

Approval of the trial protocol by the IRB / ethics committee 

Availability of a signed and dated clinical trial contract between the sponsor and the 
head of the trial site

Approval/notification of the regulatory authority, e.g. competent authority

Availability of the curriculum vitae of the principal investigator

Availability of a signed and dated clinical trial protocol
Only authorised personnel as documented in the form ‘Site Delegation Log’ may dispense
medication to trial subjects. The trial medication must be administered in the manner 
specified in the CTP. All unused medication will be disposed locally by the trial site upon 
written authorisation by the clinical monitor. Receipt, usage and disposal must be 
documented on the respective forms. Account must be given for any discrepancies. 
The investigator / pharmacist must maintain records of the product’s delivery to the trial site, 
the inventory at the site, the use by each subject, and the disposal of unused products. 
These records will include dates, quantities, batch / serial numbers, expiry (‘use-by’) dates, 
and the unique code numbers assigned to the investigational products and trial subjects. The 
investigator / pharmacist will maintain records that document adequately that the subjects 
were provided the doses specified by the CTP, and that reconcile all investigational products 
received from the sponsor. At the time of disposal, the investigator / pharmacist must verify 
that no remaining supplies are in the investigator’s possession.

OTHER TREATMENTS, EMERGENCY  PROCEDURES,
RESTRICTIONS
4.2.1
Other treatments and emergency procedures
There are no specific rescue drugs foreseen for the treatment of AEs. No special emergency 
procedures are to be followed. No additional treatment is planned. However, in case of 
adverse events in need of treatment, the investigator can authorise symptomatic therapy. In 
those cases, subjects will be treated as necessary and, if required, kept under supervision at 
the trial site or transferred to a hospital until all medical evaluation results have returned to an 
acceptable level.
4.2.2
Restrictions
4.2.2.1

Endpoints of efficacy
No efficacy endpoints will be evaluated in this trial.
5.1.2
Assessment of efficacy
Not applicable.
5.2
SAFETY
5.2.1
Endpoints of safety
Safety and tolerability of the investigational drug will be assessed based on: 

Adverse events (including clinically relevant findings from the physical examination)

Safety laboratory tests

12-lead ECG

Continuous ECG monitoring

Vital signs (blood pressure, pulse rate)

Local tolerability

Oral body temperature
These parameters will be evaluated in a descriptive way only, and are therefore considered to 
be ‘further parameters of interest’. A confirmatory analysis is not planned (see Section 7.3). 
5.2.2
Assessment of adverse events
5.2.2.1
Definitions of adverse events
Adverse event
An adverse event (AE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical 
investigation subject administered a medicinal product and which does not necessarily have 
to have a causal relationship with this treatment.
An AE can therefore be any unfavourable and unintended sign (including an abnormal 
laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal 
product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product.
Serious adverse event
A serious adverse event (SAE) is defined as any AE which fulfils at least one of the 
following criteria:

results in death,


is life-threatening, which refers to an event in which the patient was at risk of death 
at the time of the event; it does not refer to an event that hypothetically might have 
caused death if more severe,

requires inpatient hospitalisation or 

requires prolongation of existing hospitalisation,

results in persistent or significant disability or incapacity, or

is a congenital anomaly/birth defect, 
or 

is  deemed serious for any other reason if it is an important medical event when based 
upon appropriate medical judgment which may jeopardise the patient and may 
require medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the other outcomes listed in 
the above definitions.
Examples of such events are intensive treatment in an emergency room or at home for 
allergic bronchospasm, blood dyscrasias or convulsions that do not result in hospitalisation or 
development of dependency or abuse. 
AEs considered ‘Always Serious’
Cancers of new histology and exacerbations of existing cancer must be classified as a serious 
event regardless of the duration between discontinuation of the drug and must be reported as 
described in Section 5.2.2.2, subsections ‘AEs collection’ and ‘AE reporting to sponsor and 
timelines’.
In accordance with the European Medicines Agency initiative on Important Medical Events, 
Boehringer Ingelheim has set up a list of further AEs, which by their nature, can always be 
considered to be ‘serious’ even though they may not have met the criteria of an SAE as 
defined above.
The latest list of ‘Always Serious AEs’ can be found in the eDC system. These events should 
always be reported as SAEs as described above.
Adverse events of special interest (AESIs)
The term AESI relates to any specific AE that has been identified at the project level as being 
of particular concern for prospective safety monitoring and safety assessment within this trial, 
e.g. the potential for AEs based on knowledge from other compounds in the same class. 
AESIs need to be reported to the sponsor’s Pharmacovigilance Department within the same 
timeframe that applies to SAEs, please see above.
The AESI in this trial is hepatic injury, as defined by the following alterations of hepatic 
laboratory parameters:

an elevation of AST and/or ALT ≥3-fold ULN combined with an elevation of total 
bilirubin ≥2-fold ULN measured in the same blood sample, and/or 

aminotransferase (ALT, and/or AST) elevations ≥10 fold ULN

These lab findings constitute a hepatic injury alert and the subjects showing these lab 
abnormalities need to be followed up according to the ‘DILI checklist’ provided in the ISF. In 
case of clinical symptoms of hepatic injury (icterus, unexplained encephalopathy, 
unexplained coagulopathy, right upper quadrant abdominal pain, etc.) without lab results 
(ALT, AST, total bilirubin) available, the Investigator should make sure these parameters are 
analysed, if necessary in an unscheduled blood test. Should the results meet the criteria of 
hepatic injury alert, the procedures described in the DILI checklist should be followed.
Intensity (severity) of AEs
The intensity (severity) of the AE should be assessed based on the following:
Mild:
Awareness of sign(s) or symptom(s) that is/are easily tolerated
Moderate:
Sufficient discomfort to cause interference with usual activity
Severe:
Incapacitating or causing inability to work or to perform usual activities
Causal relationship of AEs
Medical judgement should be used to determine the relationship, considering all relevant
factors, including pattern of reaction, temporal relationship, de-challenge or re-challenge,
confounding factors such as concomitant medication, concomitant diseases and relevant
history. 
Arguments that may suggest that there is a reasonable possibility of a causal relationship 
could be:

The event is consistent with the known pharmacology of the drug 

The event is known to be caused by or attributed to the drug class

A plausible time to onset of the event relative to the time of drug exposure

Evidence that the event is reproducible when the drug is re-introduced

No medically sound alternative aetiologies that could explain the event (e.g. pre-
existing or concomitant diseases, or co-medications)

The event is typically drug-related and infrequent in the general population not 
exposed to drugs (e.g. Stevens-Johnson syndrome)

An indication of dose-response (i.e. greater effect size if the dose is increased, smaller 
effect size if dose is diminished)
Arguments that may suggest that there is no reasonable possibility of a causal relationship 
could be:

No plausible time to onset of the event relative to the time of drug exposure is evident 
(e.g. pre-treatment cases, diagnosis of cancer or chronic disease within days / weeks 
of drug administration; an allergic reaction weeks after discontinuation of the drug 
concerned)

Continuation of the event despite the withdrawal of the medication, taking into 
account the pharmacological properties of the compound (e.g. after 5 half-lives). Of 
note, this criterion may not be applicable to events whose time course is prolonged 
despite removing the original trigger


Additional arguments amongst those stated before, like alternative explanation (e.g. 
situations where other drugs or underlying diseases appear to provide a more likely 
explanation for the observed event than the drug concerned)

Disappearance of the event even though the trial drug treatment continues or remains 
unchanged 
5.2.2.2
Adverse event collection and reporting
AEs collection
Upon enrolment into a trial, the subject’s baseline condition is assessed (for instance, by 
documentation of medical history/concomitant diagnoses), and relevant changes from 
baseline are noted subsequently. 
Subjects will be required to report spontaneously any AEs as well as the time of onset, end, 
and intensity of these events. In addition, each subject will be regularly assessed by the 
medical staff throughout the clinical trial and whenever the investigator deems necessary. As 
a minimum, subjects will be questioned for AEs (and concomitant therapies) at the time 
points indicated in the Flow Chart. Assessment will be made using non-specific questions 
such as ‘How do you feel?’. Specific questions will be asked wherever necessary in order to 
more precisely describe an AE.
A careful written record of all AEs shall be kept by the investigator in charge of the trial. 
Records of AEs shall include data on the time of onset, end time, and intensity of the event as 
well as any treatment or action required for the event and its outcome.
The following must be collected and documented on the appropriate CRF(s) by the 
investigator:

From signing the informed consent onwards until an individual subject’s end of trial: 
o
All AEs (serious and non-serious) and all AESIs
o
The only exception to this rule are AEs (serious and non-serious) and AESIs 
in Phase I trials in healthy volunteers, when subjects discontinue from the trial 
due to screening failures prior to administration of any trial medication. In 
these cases, the subjects’ data must be collected at trial site but will not be 
entered in the CRF or trial database and will not be reported in the CTR

After the individual subject’s end of trial: 
o
The investigator does not need to actively monitor the subject for AEs but 
should only report related SAEs and related AESIs of which the investigator 
may become aware of by an means of communication, e.g. phone call. Those 
AEs should, however, not be reported in the CRF.

The REP for BI 655130, when measurable drug levels or PD effects are still likely to be 
present after the last administration, is not known at this early stage of development. 
Therefore, all AEs reported until the end of trial examination will be considered on treatment; 
please see Section 7.3.3.
AE reporting to sponsor and timelines
The Investigator must report SAEs, AESIs, and non-serious AEs which are relevant for the 
reported SAE or AESI, on the BI SAE form via fax immediately (within 24 hours of 
awareness) to the sponsor’s unique entry point (country specific contact details will be 
provided in the ISF). The same timeline applies if follow-up information becomes available. 
In specific occasions the Investigator could inform the sponsor upfront via telephone. This 
does not replace the requirement to complete and fax the BI SAE form.
With receipt of any further information to these events, a follow-up SAE form has to be 
provided. For follow-up information the same rules and timeline apply as for initial 
information.
Information required
For each AE, the investigator should provide the information requested on the appropriate 
CRF pages and the BI SAE form (if applicable). The investigator should determine the causal 
relationship to the trial medication.
The following should also be recorded as an (S)AE in the CRF and BI SAE form (if 
applicable):

Worsening of the underlying disease or of other pre-existing conditions 

Changes in vital signs, ECG, physical examination and laboratory test results, if they 
are judged clinically relevant by the investigator
If such abnormalities already pre-exist prior to trial inclusion they will be considered as 
baseline conditions and should be collected in the eCRF only.
All (S)AEs, including those persisting after individual subject’s end of trial must be followed 
up until they have resolved, have been assessed as ‘chronic’ or ‘stable’, or no further 
information can be obtained.

Pregnancy
In rare cases, pregnancy might occur in a clinical trial. Once a subject has been enrolled in 
the clinical trial and has taken trial medication, the investigator must report any drug 
exposure during pregnancy in a trial participant immediately (within 24 hours) by means of 
Part A of the Pregnancy Monitoring Form to the sponsor’s unique entry point.
Similarly, potential drug exposure during pregnancy must be reported if a partner of a male
trial participant becomes pregnant. This requires a written consent of the pregnant partner.
The outcome of the pregnancy associated with the drug exposure during pregnancy must be
followed up and reported to the sponsor’s unique entry point on the Pregnancy Monitoring
Form for Clinical Trials (Part B). The ISF will contain the Pregnancy Monitoring Form for 
Clinical Trials (Part A and B).
As pregnancy itself is not to be reported as an AE, in the absence of an accompanying SAE
and/or AESI, only the Pregnancy Monitoring Form for Clinical Trials and not the SAE form
is to be completed. If there is an SAE and/or AESI associated with the pregnancy an SAE
form must be completed in addition.
5.2.3
Assessment of safety laboratory parameters
For the assessment of laboratory parameters, blood and urine samples will be collected by the 
trial site at the time points indicated in the Flow Chart after the subjects have fasted for at 
least 10 h. Overnight fasting is not required at the discretion of the investigator or designee
for retests.
The parameters that will be determined are listed in Tables 5.2.3: 1 and 5.2.3: 2. Reference 
ranges will be provided in the ISF, Section 10. 
Manual differential white blood cell count or urine sediment examinations will only be 
performed if there is an abnormality in the automatic blood cell count or in the urinalysis,
respectively.

6510 and Alcotest® 5510, Belgium) will be performed at screening and at the start of the 
in-house period (Day -1) and may be repeated at any time during the study at the discretion of 
an investigator or designee. The results will not be included in the CTR.
In case of a potential systemic allergic reaction, blood samples for determination of serum 
tryptase will be collected 0.5 h, 2 h, 6 h, and 24 h after onset of the event.
The laboratory tests listed in Table 5.2.3: 1 and 5.2.3: 2 will be performed ZNA Klinisch

tests. These tests will be performed at the trial site using 'Alere Triage TOX Drug Screen' and 
MAHSAN® –HCG rapid test or equivalent, respectively.
Laboratory data will be transmitted electronically from the laboratory to the trial site.
Samples for cytokine analysis (cytokines IL1, IL6, TNF-and IFNwill be collected at 
baseline, 4h, and 24h postdose. The cytokine samples will be only analysed in case of 
specific adverse events suggestive for cytokine release.
5.2.4
Electrocardiogram
5.2.4.1
12-lead resting ECG
Twelve-lead ECGs (I, II, III, aVR, aVL, aVF, V1 - V6) will be recorded using a
computerised electrocardiograph (MAC 5500, GE Healthcare) at the time points given in the 
Flow Chart.
In order to achieve a stable heart rate at rest and to assure high quality recordings at 
comparable resting phases, all ECGs will be recorded for a 10-sec duration after the subjects 
have rested for at least 5 min in a supine position. The site personnel will be instructed to 
assure a relaxed and quiet environment so that all subjects are at complete rest during the 
recordings. ECG assessment will always precede all other study procedures of the same time 
point (except blood drawing from an intravenous cannula which is already in place) to avoid 
impact of sampling on the ECG quality. 
Electrode placement will be performed according to the method of Wilson, Goldberger.
All locally printed ECGs will be evaluated by the investigator or a designee. 
ECGs may be repeated for quality reasons (like alternating current artefacts, muscle 
movements, electrode dislocation) and the repeated ECG will be used for analysis.
Additional (unscheduled) ECGs may be collected by the investigator for safety reasons. 
These ECGs are assigned to the prior scheduled time point. Unscheduled ECGs will not be 
included into the statistical analysis of interval lengths.
For the inclusion or exclusion (see Section 3.3) of a subject and for the assessment of cardiac 
safety during the study, the QT and QTcB values generated by the ECG machines or their 
manual corrections by the investigators will be used. 
Abnormal findings will be reported as AEs (during the trial) or baseline conditions (at 
screening) if judged clinically relevant by the investigator. Any ECG abnormalities will be 
monitored carefully and, if necessary, the subject will be removed from the trial and will 
receive the appropriate medical treatment.
5.2.4.2
Continuous ECG monitoring and oxygen monitoring
Cardiac rhythm (including heart rate) will be monitored by means of continuous 2-lead ECG 
recording for at least 15 min before (for baseline assessment) and 2 h following the start of 
IV infusion or SC injection using the Dräger Telemetry monitoring system, Infinity M300. 
Oxygen saturation will be monitored by pulse oximetry using either Type NT1 handheld 
pulse oximeter from Newtech or Oxytrue A from Bluepoint Medical.

Assessment of other safety parameters
5.2.5.1
Vital signs
Systolic and diastolic blood pressures (BP) as well as pulse rate (PR) or heart rate (heart rate 
is considered to be equal to pulse rate) will be measured by a blood pressure monitor (Welch 
Allyn 530TP and 530TO devices) at the times indicated in the Flow Chart, after subjects have 
rested for at least 5 min in a supine position. All recordings should be made using the same 
type of blood pressure recording instrument on the same arm if possible.
5.2.5.2
Medical examinations
At screening, the medical examination will include demographics including height and body 
weight, smoking and alcohol history, relevant medical history and concomitant therapy, 
review of inclusion and exclusion criteria, review of vital signs (BP, PR), 12-lead ECG, 
laboratory tests, and a physical examination. At the end of trial examination, it will include 
review of vital signs, 12-lead ECG, laboratory tests, and a physical examination with 
determination of weight.
5.2.5.3
Local tolerability
Local tolerability will be assessed by the investigator according to ‘swelling’, ‘induration’, 
‘heat’, ‘redness’, ‘pain’, or ‘other findings’.

Methods of sample collection
5.5.2.1
Plasma sampling for pharmacokinetic analysis
For quantification of BI 655130 plasma concentrations, approximately 
 of blood will 
be taken from an antecubital or forearm vein into a K2EDTA (ethylenediaminetetraacetic 
acid) anticoagulant blood drawing tube at the times indicated in the Flow Chart under 'Plasma 
PK'. Blood will be withdrawn by means of either an indwelling venous catheter or by 
venipuncture with a metal needle.
The K2EDTA-anticoagulated blood samples will be mixed gently and placed on ice until 
centrifugation for about 10 minutes at about 2000 g to 4000 g and at approximately 4°C. The 
blood should be centrifuged to produce plasma as soon as possible after collection, but not 
later than 30 minutes after withdrawal. Two aliquots of EDTA plasma sample will be 
obtained in two labelled polypropylene cryotubes. At a minimum, the sample tube labels 
should list the following information: BI trial number, subject number, visit, PTM, aliquot #1 
or #2, plasma, and PK.
The two aliquots should contain approximately 
 of plasma each. The plasma samples 
will be stored in a freezer at about -20°C or below at the clinical site until shipment to the 
analytical laboratory. 
After completion of the trial, the plasma samples may be used for further methodological 
investigations, e.g. for stability testing.  However, only data related to the analyte will be 
generated by these additional investigations. The study samples will be discarded after 
completion of the additional investigations but not later than 5 years after the final study 
report has been signed

INVESTIGATIONAL PLAN
6.1
VISIT SCHEDULE
Exact times of measurements outside the permitted time windows will be documented. The 
acceptable time windows for screening and end of trial examination are given in the Flow 
Chart.
Study measurements and assessments scheduled to occur ‘before’ trial medication 
administration on Day 1 are to be performed and completed within a 3 h-period prior to the 
trial drug administration (including blank values for PK). 
The acceptable deviation from the scheduled time for vital signs and ECG will be:

±15 min up to including 12 h

±30 min from 12h up to including 48 h

±120 min from 48 h up to Day 8

±48h from Day 9 up to Day 14

±72h from >Day 14 up to the last measurements
If scheduled in the Flow Chart at the same time as a meal, blood sampling, vital signs, and 
12-lead ECG recordings have to be done first. Furthermore, if several measurements 
including venipuncture are scheduled for the same time, venipuncture should be the last of 
the measurements due to its inconvenience to the subject and possible influence on 
physiological parameters.
For planned individual plasma concentration sampling times refer to the Flow Chart. While 
these nominal times should be adhered to as closely as possible, the actual sampling times 
will be recorded and used for the determination of pharmacokinetic parameters.
If a subject misses an appointment, it will be rescheduled if possible. The relevance of 
measurements outside the permitted time windows will be assessed no later than at the Report 
Planning Meeting.
6.2
DETAILS OF TRIAL PROCEDURES AT SELECTED VISITS
6.2.1
Screening period
After having been informed about the trial, all subjects will give their written informed 
consent in accordance with GCP and local legislation prior to enrolment in the study.
For information regarding laboratory tests (including drug and virus screening), ECG, vital 
signs, and physical examination, refer to Sections 5.2.3 to 5.2.5.
6.2.2
Treatment period
Study participants will be admitted to the trial site in the evening of Day -1 and kept under 
close medical surveillance for at least 48 h following drug administration. The subjects will 
then be allowed to leave the trial site after formal assessment and confirmation of their 
fitness. On all other study days, the study will be performed in an ambulatory fashion.

Details on treatments and procedures of administration are described in Section 4.1.4.
For details on time points and procedures for collection of plasma samples for PK analysis, 
refer to Flow Chart and Section 5.5.2.
The safety measurements performed during the treatment period are specified in Section 5.2 
of this protocol and in the Flow Chart. For details on time points for all other trial procedures, 
refer to the Flow Chart. AEs and concomitant therapy will be assessed continuously from 
screening until the end of trial examination.
6.2.3
End of trial period
For AE assessment, laboratory tests, collection of PK 
 samples, recording of ECG 
and vital signs, and physical examination during the end of trial period, see Sections 5.2.2 to 
5.2.5.
Subjects who discontinue treatment before the end of the planned treatment period should 
undergo the end of trial visit.
All abnormal values (including laboratory parameters) that are judged clinically relevant by 
the investigator will be monitored using the appropriate tests until a return to a medically 
acceptable level is achieved. (S)AEs persisting after subject’s end of trial must be followed 
up until they have resolved, have been sufficiently characterised, or no further information 
can be obtained.
The end of the trial as a whole is defined by the ‘last regular visit completed by last subject’ 
or ‘end date of the last open AE’ or ‘date of the last follow-up test’ or ‘date of an AE has 
been decided as sufficiently followed-up’, whichever is latest.

STATISTICAL METHODS AND DETERMINATION OF
SAMPLE SIZE
7.1
STATISTICAL DESIGN – MODEL
7.1.1
Objectives
The primary objective of this trial is to investigate the relative bioavailability of 
 of 
BI 655130 following subcutaneous administration (Test, T) compared to 
 of 
BI 655130 following intravenous infusion (Reference, R). This will be evaluated statistically 
by use of an appropriate linear model.
The secondary objective is the evaluation and comparison of several pharmacokinetic 
parameters between all tested treatments. The secondary objective will be assessed by 
descriptive statistics.
The assessment of safety and tolerability is an additional objective of this trial, and will be 
evaluated by descriptive statistics.
7.1.2
Endpoints
Relative bioavailability is to be determined on the basis of the primary and secondary 
pharmacokinetic endpoints (see Section 5.5.1).
Safety and tolerability will be determined on the basis of the parameters specified in 
Section 5.2.1.
7.1.3
Model
The statistical model used for the inter-individual comparison of the primary and secondary 
endpoints following SC versus IV administration of 
 of BI 655130 will be an ANOVA 
(analysis of variance) model on the logarithmic scale, accounting for the treatment group as a 
source of variation. The effect ‘treatment group’ will be considered as fixed. The model is 
described by the following equation:
yij = + τi+eij, where
yij = logarithm of response (endpoint, see Section 7.1.3) measured on subject j 
receiving treatment i
= overall treatment mean,
τi: effect of treatment i
eij = the random error associated with the subject j who received treatment ,
where eij ∼N(0,σ2) where σ2is the total variability

7.2
NULL AND ALTERNATIVE HYPOTHESES
The relative bioavailability of BI 655130 following SC compared to IV administration will be 
estimated by the ratios of the geometric means (test/reference) for the primary and secondary
PK endpoints. Additionally, their two-sided 90% confidence intervals (CIs) will be provided. 
This method corresponds to the two one-sided t-tests procedure, each at the 5% significance 
level. Since the main focus is on estimation and not testing, an acceptance range was not 
specified, that is, no hypothesis will be tested.
7.3
PLANNED ANALYSES
7.3.1
Primary analyses
The pharmacokinetic endpoints listed in Section 5.5.1 will be calculated according to the 
BI Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) ‘Standards and processes for analyses performed 
within Clinical Pharmacokinetics/Pharmacodynamics’ (001-MCS-36-472).
Plasma concentration data and parameters of a subject will be included in the statistical 
pharmacokinetic (PK) analyses if they are not flagged for exclusion due to a protocol 
violation relevant to the evaluation of PK (to be decided no later than in Report Planning 
Meeting) or due to PK non-evaluability (as revealed during data analysis, based on the 
criteria specified below). Exclusion of a subject’s data will be documented in the CTR.
A PK concentration or parameter will be considered as non-evaluable if, for example, the 
subject did not receive the complete assigned infusion or injection volume.
Relevant protocol violations may be

Study drug not administered or wrong trial drug administered

Incorrect dose of trial medication taken

Missed/missing PK samples at important phases of PK disposition curve
The PK parameter analysis set (PKS) includes all subjects in the Treated Set (TS) who 
provide at least one primary or secondary PK parameter that was not excluded according to 
the description above. Thus, a subject will be included in the PKS, even if he contributes only 
one PK parameter value to the statistical assessment.
Relative bioavailability will be estimated by the ratios of the geometric means (test/reference) 
for the primary and secondary endpoints (see 5.5.1.1, 5.5.1.2), and their two-sided 90% 
confidence intervals (CIs) will be provided.
To this end, the PK endpoints will be log transformed (natural logarithm) prior to fitting the 
ANOVA model (cf. Section 7.1.3). For each endpoint, the difference between the expected 
means for log(T)-log(R) will be estimated by the difference in the corresponding adjusted 
means (LeastSquares Means), and a two-sided 90% confidence interval based on the

t-distribution will be computed. These quantities will then be back-transformed to the original 
scale to provide the point estimate and 90% CIs for each endpoint.
7.3.2
Secondary analyses
The secondary parameter (refer to Section 5.5.1) will be calculated according to the BI SOP 
‘Standards and processes for analyses performed within Clinical Pharmacokinetics/ 
Pharmacodynamics’ (001-MCS-36-472) and will statistically be assessed using the same 
methods as described for the primary endpoints.
7.3.3
Safety analyses
Safety will be assessed for the endpoints listed in Section 5.2.1. All treated subjects (that is,
all subjects who received one dose of study drug), will be included in the safety analysis. 
Safety analyses will be descriptive in nature and will be based on BI standards. No hypothesis 
testing is planned.
The analyses will be done by ‘treatment at onset’.
Treatments will be compared in a descriptive way. Tabulations of frequencies/proportions 
will be used for the evaluation of categorical (qualitative) data, and tabulations of descriptive 
statistics will be used to analyse continuous (quantitative) data.
Measurements (such as ECG, vital signs, or laboratory parameters) or AEs will be assigned to 
treatments (see Section 4.1) based on the actual treatment at the planned time of the 
measurement or on the recorded time of AE onset (concept of treatment emergent AEs).
Therefore, measurements planned or AEs recorded prior to administration of trial medication 
will be assigned to 'screening', those between trial medication administration until the end of
trial visit will be assigned to the treatment period, and those after the end of trial examination
will be assigned to ‘post-study’. These assignments including the corresponding time 
intervals will be defined in detail in the TSAP.
Additionally, further treatment intervals (analysing treatments) may be defined in order to 
provide summary statistics for time intervals, such as combined treatments, on-treatment 
totals or periods without treatment effects (such as screening and post-study intervals).
Adverse events will be coded using the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities
(MedDRA). Frequency, severity and causal relationship of AEs will be tabulated by 
treatment, system organ class and preferred term. SAEs, AESIs (see Section 5.2.2.1) and 
other significant AEs (according to ICH E3) will be listed separately.
Laboratory data will be compared to their reference ranges. Values outside the reference 
range as well as values defined as clinically relevant will be highlighted in the listings. 
Additionally, differences from baseline will be evaluated. Measurements taken immediately 
prior to drug administration on Day 1 will be considered as baseline values.
Vital signs or other safety-relevant data observed at screening, baseline, during the course of 
the trial and at the end-of-trial evaluation will be assessed with regard to possible changes 
compared to findings before start of treatment.
Relevant ECG findings will be reported as AEs.

7.3.4
Interim analyses
No interim analysis is planned.
7.3.5
Pharmacokinetic analyses
The pharmacokinetic parameters listed in Section 5.5.1 for BI 655130 will be calculated 
according to the relevant SOP of the Sponsor (001-MCS-36-472).
Subjects who are not included in the PKS (refer to Section 7.3.1) will be reported with their 
individual plasma concentrations and individual pharmacokinetic parameters; however, they 
will not be included in descriptive statistics for plasma concentrations, pharmacokinetic 
parameters, or other statistical assessment.
Only concentration values within the validated concentration range and actual sampling times 
will be used for the calculation of pharmacokinetic parameters. Concentrations used in the 
pharmacokinetic calculations will be in the same format provided in the bioanalytical report, 
(that is, to the same number of decimal places provided in the bioanalytical report).
If a predose concentration value is greater than 5% of Cmax, the subject’s pharmacokinetic 
data will be not included in any statistical evaluations, in accordance with international 
guidances. The individual pharmacokinetic parameters of such a subject will be calculated 
and listed separately. If a predose concentration is above BLQ, but less than or equal to 5% of 
the subject’s Cmax value, the subject’s data without any adjustments will be included in all 
pharmacokinetic measurements and calculations.
7.4
HANDLING OF MISSING DATA
7.4.1
Safety
With respect to safety evaluations, it is not planned to impute missing values.
7.4.2
Plasma drug concentration - time profiles
Handling of missing PK data will be performed according to the relevant Corporate 
Procedure of the Sponsor (001-MCS-36-472).
Drug concentration data identified with NOS (no sample available), NOR (no valid result), 
NOA (not analysed), BLQ (below the lower limit of quantification), or NOP (no peak 
detectable) will be displayed as such and not replaced by zero at any time point (this rule also 
applies also to the lag phase, including the predose values). 
7.4.3
Pharmacokinetic parameters
Handling of missing PK data will be performed according to the relevant SOP of the Sponsor 
(001-MCS-36-472).
For the non-compartmental analysis, concentration data identified with NOS, NOR or NOA 
will generally not be considered. Concentration values in the lag phase identified as BLQ or

NOP will be set to zero. All other BLQ/NOP values of the profile will be ignored. The lag 
phase is defined as the period between time zero and the first time point with a concentration 
above the quantification limit.
7.5
DETERMINATION OF SAMPLE SIZE
It is planned to enter a total of 36 subjects in the trial (12 subjects per treatment group) 
because this sample size is considered sufficient to achieve the aims of this exploratory trial. 
With this sample size, the following precision of the ratio of geometric means (test/reference)
can be expected. Precision is defined as the ratio of upper to lower confidence interval limit.
Note that the precision is independent of the actual ratio of geometric means. Table 7.5: 1
provides an overview on the achievable precision for estimating the ratio of geometric means 
(test/reference) covering the range of gCVs estimated for the PK endpoints from the results 
obtained from the first-in-human SRD study for BI 655130. For illustrative purposes, the 
expected 90% confidence intervals with 95% coverage probability are displayed for different 
values of geometric means ratios T/R in the parallel design.

CLINICAL EVALUATION OF LIVER INJURY
10.1.1
Introduction
Alterations of liver laboratory parameters, as described in Section 5.2.2.1 (Protocol-specified 
AESIs), are to be further evaluated using the following procedures:
10.1.2
Procedures
Repeat the following laboratory tests: ALT, AST, and bilirubin (total and direct) - within 48 
to 72 h. If it is confirmed that ALT and/or AST values ≥3 fold ULN occur in conjunction 
with an elevation of total bilirubin of ≥2 fold ULN, the laboratory parameters listed below 
(clinical chemistry, serology, hormones, haematology) must be determined and made 
available to the investigator and to BI as soon as possible.
In addition, 

obtain a detailed history of current symptoms and concurrent diagnoses and medical 
history according to the ‘DILI checklist’ provided in the ISF 

obtain history of concomitant drug use (including non-prescription medications, 
herbal and dietary supplement preparations), alcohol use, recreational drug use, and 
special diets according to the ‘DILI checklist’ provided in the ISF;

obtain a history of exposure to environmental chemical agents (consider home and 
work place exposure) according to the ‘DILI checklist’ provided in the ISF;
and report these via the CRF.
Clinical chemistry
Alkaline phosphatase, albumin, PT or INR, CK, CK-MB, coeruloplasmin, α-1 antitrypsin, 
transferin, amylase, lipase, fasting glucose, cholesterol, triglycerides
Serology
Hepatitis A (Anti-IgM, Anti-IgG), Hepatitis B (HbsAg, Anti-HBs, DNA), Hepatitis C (Anti-
HCV, RNA if Anti-HCV positive), Hepatitis D (Anti-IgM, Anti-IgG), Hepatitis E (Anti-
HEV, Anti-HEV IgM, RNA if Anti-HEV IgM positive), Anti-Smooth Muscle antibody 
(titer), Anti-nuclear antibody (titer), Anti-LKM (liver-kidney microsomes) antibody, Anti-
mitochondrial antibody
Epstein Barr Virus (VCA IgG, VCA IgM), cytomegalovirus (IgG, IgM), herpes simplex virus 
(IgG, IgM), varicella (IgG, IgM), parvovirus (IgG, IgM), toxoplasmosis (IgG, IgM)

Haematology
Thrombocytes, eosinophils

Provide abdominal ultrasound to rule out biliary tract, pancreatic or intrahepatic 
pathology, e.g. bile duct stones or neoplasm.

Initiate close observation of subjects by repeat testing of ALT, AST, and total 
bilirubin (total and direct) at least weekly until the laboratory ALT and/or AST 
abnormalities stabilize or return to normal, then monitor further as specified in the 
CTP. Depending on further laboratory changes, additional parameters identified e.g. 
by reflex testing will be followed up based on medical judgement and Good Clinical 
Practices (GCP).
