NA
Duration of treatment:
Approximately four years of administration to patient after receiving first BI 
655066/ ABBV-066/risankizumab dose in either trial 1311.2 or trial 1311.13
Criteria for efficacy:
The achievement of PASI90 at week 48 in the Extended dosing period (i.e. a ≥ 
90% reduction in PASI score from baseline), is the primary efficacy 
endpoint.  
Criteria for safety:
Occurrence of AEs, drug related AEs and SAEs are primary endpoints of 
safety.
Safety analyses will focus on adverse events related to early discontinuation, 
immune suppression and injection site reactions. 
Analysis of laboratory measures will similarly focus on hematologic measures 
of immune suppression. 
Safety will also be assessed by evaluation of vital signs (BP, PR, RR, oral or 
tympanic body temperature) and local tolerability.
Additionally, time to antibody development formation will be examined using 
Kaplan Meier empirical survival curves.
Statistical methods:
There is no statistical model; the analyses are descriptive.  Statistical analyses 
will include a responder analysis, time to loss of response, and time to AESI.  
The analyses will be based on proportions of patients achieving a response, 
Kaplan Meier empirical survival curves to describe patterns of event 
incidence, and as well as cumulative event rates at critical time-points.

Footnotes:
1.
Extended Visit 1 of this OLE study should preferably be performed in one visit combined with EOS visit in preceding trial 1311.2, or within an interim period of maximum 6 weeks
thereafter. If not performed as combined visits, informed consent must be signed before the roll-over visit due to lab sampling fasting at EV1 in trial 1311.13. Informed consent must not be 
signed before the 1311.2 date of last visit. 
2.
Assessments performed at EOS in the previous trial do not have to be repeated at EV1 in this trial, if performed as combined visits. If EV1 is performed as a separate visit to 1311.2 EOS, all 
EV1 assessments should be performed.
3.
After the approval of this protocol amendment in each respective country, all patients will follow Flow Chart (Extended dosing period) and receive 90mg BI 655066 subcutaneously at their 
EV1. After 12 weeks, at EV2, the dose can be increased to 180 mg BI 655066 based on evaluation of the PASI90 achievement (see section 4.1.2 and 6.2.2). For ongoing patients under the 
previous protocol amendment, EV1 should be conducted at the following time points:
a.
For ongoing patients with ≥12 weeks since the EOT visit: Conduct EV1 as soon as possible 
b.
For ongoing patients still undergoing treatment or with <12 weeks since the EOT visit: Conduct EV1 at the time of the next scheduled treatment or follow up visit (note: EV1 
should not be conducted at the time point of Visit 2 under the previous protocol, patients with Visit 2 as their next scheduled visit should have their EV1 replacing their Visit 3 
instead)
4.
For patients who prematurely discontinue the treatment period before study end (for any reason), an early Extended EOT visit is required. If the decision to discontinue study participation is 
taken at a regular study visit, the visit should be turned into an Extended EOT visit, i.e. an Extended EOT visit is to be performed instead of the scheduled visit. If the decision to discontinue 
study participation is taken in between study visits, an Extended EOT visit is to be scheduled at the earliest convenience and by the latest at the next upcoming visit according to the Flow 
Chart. This early Extended EOT visit will include the same procedures as the normal Extended EOT visit and the patient will subsequently enter a follow up period of 12 weeks, until a final 
Extended EOS is performed.
5.
The Psoriatic Arthritis status assessment (PSOA: Psoriatic arthritis diagnosed, suspected, or not present) will be performed at roll-over visit only. Psoriatic arthritis screening and evaluation 
tool (PASE) to be completed by the patient if psoriatic arthritis is suspected or confirmed. To be repeated once per year until study end, i.e at EV1, EV5, EV10…
6.
“xC” is a complete physical examination including assessment of vital sign measurements, general appearance, and evaluation of all organ systems
7.
”xT” is a targeted physical examination including assessment of vital sign measurements, and evaluation of organ systems associated with AE(s) symptoms or laboratory abnormalities.
8.
Measured after 5 minutes of rest in the supine position. Measurements of vital signs should, if possible, always precede blood sampling. 
a.
Extended visit 1: Vital signs will be taken ~ 30 min predose, 5 minutes, and 1 hour after the dose is administered
b.
Following dosing visits: Vital signs will be taken ~ 30 min predose, 5 minutes and 30 minutes after the dose is administered
c.
Non-dosing visit (Extended EOS): Vital signs will be measured once per visit
9.
ECG to be performed after 5 minutes of rest in the supine position, at every 24 weeks, starting from EV1 (EV1, EV3, EV5…). Should, if possible, be performed prior to blood sampling.
10.
Not to be performed for patients who prematurely discontinue the treatment period.
11.
All new AEs as well as unresolved AE from the preceding trial 1311.2 should be followed up within this study.
12.
Only for patients with psoriatic arthritis.
13.
For details of laboratory tests cf. Section5.2.3, Table 5.2.3:1 and 5.2.3:2
14.
Patients must be fasting for at least 8 hours prior to collection of the safety laboratory samples.
15.
Only applicable for women of childbearing potential.
16.
In women of childbearing potential urine pregnancy test has to be performed before each administration of study drug. 
17.
Blood samples for protein biomarker, PK and ADA will be drawn ~ 30 min before the subcutaneous injection (PreD) at every 24 weeks, starting from EV1 (EV1, EV3, EV5…).
18.
For patients who prematurely discontinue the follow up period before study end (for any reason), an early Extended EOS visit is required. This early Extended EOS visit will include the same 
procedures as the normal Extended EOS visit.
19.
Patients will be asked to give consent to be contacted (or for their primary care physician to be contacted) by the study team to obtain vital status information preferably at the time of study 
entry
20.
Only required at EV1 for patients who are having EV1 as their first 1311.13 visit
21.
All efficacy assessments should be performed pre-dose (PreD)
22.
To be repeated once per year until study end (EV1, EV5, EV10…)

INTRODUCTION
1.1
MEDICAL BACKGROUND
Psoriasis is a common skin disease characterized by raised, well-demarcated erythematous 
oval plaques with adherent silvery scales (R11-1257). It affects approximately 2% of the 
world population including 25 million people in North America and Europe making it the 
most prevalent immune mediated skin disease (R08-1089). It usually begins in late 
adolescence and early adulthood and then usually persists for life with remissions and 
relapses. The latter can be triggered by infections, medications and stress.
Disease severity can be characterized by body surface area (BSA) involvement with <5% 
being considered mild, 5-10% moderate and >10% severe (R11-1259). Disease status has 
been measured using the Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI), a composite measure of 
erythema, induration, desquamation and BSA affected by psoriasis with a range of scores 
from 0 to 72 (R96-3541). The percentage of patients reaching PASI75, a 75% reduction in 
score from baseline to 12 or 16 weeks is traditionally used as a primary endpoint in psoriasis 
treatment trials.
Topical agents, including corticosteroids, are the mainstay for mild disease. Treatments for 
more advanced conditions can be classified into phototherapy, immunosuppressants, other 
systemic agents, and more recently, biologics (R11-1261).
Many of the agents may be used in combination or on a rotational basis to limit toxicity. 
Phototherapy may be used alone or with topical tar and dithranol products or with systemic 
and biologic agents. Although effective, the frequency and nature of this treatment reduces 
adherence. Adverse events (AEs) of phototoxicity, skin aging and concerns of development 
of skin cancers, also reduce acceptance of this therapy (R11-1261). Immunosuppressants, 
such as methotrexate or cyclosporine, are also effective for the management of moderate to 
severe psoriasis and relapses, but cumulative hepatotoxicity, bone marrow suppression and 
rarely pulmonary toxicity with methotrexate and nephrotoxicity with cyclosporine, requires 
careful monitoring and prevents the use of these agents long term.
Biologic agents such as tumor necrosis factor (TNF) blockers were first found efficacious in 
Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis and rheumatoid arthritis prior to their use in psoriasis. 
Although not studied in head-to-head comparisons, different agents in this class have varying 
efficacy in psoriasis: infliximab and adalimumab are more efficacious especially in short term 
with PASI75 of 70-87% vs. etanercept (PASI75 of 50%) (R11-1261). These agents have been 
used for treating relapses and maintenance as well as the management of psoriatic arthritis, 
which occurs in approximately a third of all patients with psoriasis. However, TNF has 
myriad effects on immune function and TNF blockers have been associated with an increased 
risk of serious infections, in particular, tuberculosis and other opportunistic infections, 
cancers, including lymphomas, and demyelinating disorders.
BI 655066 is a humanized antagonistic monoclonal antibody (mAb) directed against the p19 
subunit of the human cytokine interleukin-23 (IL-23). IL-23 plays a critical role in the

differentiation and function of Th17 cells, which have emerged as an important T-cell 
subpopulation involved in the pathogenesis of immune mediated disorders (R12-1008)
The therapeutic rationale for an IL-23 antagonist in inflammatory diseases such as psoriasis, 
Crohn’s disease, and ankylosing spondylitis, is supported by several lines of evidence 
including mouse models, genome-wide association studies and histological findings in 
humans.
Although previous experience with selective IL-23 antagonists is limited, a mAb targeting the 
common p40 subunit of the IL-12 and IL-23 cytokines, ustekinumab (Stelara®), has been 
approved for the treatment of psoriasis, and a second (briakinumab) reached Phase III clinical 
trials before development was stopped. Both ustekinumab and briakinumab showed efficacy 
in the treatment of psoriasis.
The critical role of IL-12 in adaptive immunity raised concerns that mAbs directed against 
the IL-12 p40 subunit could increase the risk of infections or cancer, due to inhibition of IL-
12-dependent immune surveillance mechanisms (P06-11555, R11-1236). Indeed, higher rates 
of these events were noted in pivotal Phase III randomised controlled trials of briakinumab 
(R11-1529, R12-1010), although not in trials of ustekinumab. However, complete IL-23 
deficiency is not associated with a predisposition to mycobacterial infections (R12-1011) 
although it is associated with significant defects in humoral and delayed-type hypersensitivity 
responses in mice (R11-1204).
Observations of Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events (MACE) during the clinical 
development of both briakinumab and ustekinumab raised concerns that inhibition of either 
IL-12, IL-23, or both could pose cardiovascular safety risks (R11-4193). However, such a 
risk has not been confirmed among patients receiving ustekinumab for up to five years (R13-
3518). No additional data has emerged to suggest a specific cardiovascular risk associated 
with inhibition of IL-23; nevertheless, particular attention will be given to cardiovascular 
AEs in clinical trials of BI 655066.
1.2
DRUG PROFILE
BI 655066 is a humanized monoclonal antibody (mAb) of the IgG1 subclass that is directed 
towards IL-23p19. The framework of the antibody has been engineered with two mutations in 
the Fc region to reduce Fcγ receptor and complement binding. The C-terminal lysine of the 
heavy chain has also been deleted to reduce potential charge heterogeneity.
In Study 1311.1, a Phase I single rising dose trial in psoriasis patients, administration of BI 
655066 either intravenously or subcutaneously appeared to be well tolerated.  A total of 39 
patients received a single dose of either BI 655066 i.v. (n=18), s.c. (n= 13), or placebo (n=8). 
All patients who received 0·01, 0·25, 3, or 5 mg/kg i.v., or 0·25 or 1 mg/kg s.c. doses of BI 
655066 (n=27) achieved PASI75 responses by Week 12 vs. 33% (1/3) and 67% (2/3) in 0·05 
and 1 mg/kg i.v. dose groups, respectively vs. 13% (1/8) in the combined placebo group. 
PASI90 rates by Week 12 were up to 100% (0·01 mg/kg i.v. group [3/3] and in both s.c. dose 
groups [13/13]) vs. 0% (0/8) in placebo group. Efficacy was well maintained at Week 24 and 
beyond. Treatment with BI 655066 resulted in significant changes in select psoriasis related

biomarkers in the skin and plasma through Week 12 and correlated with improvement in 
PASI scores. There were no clear relationships between the overall frequency of AEs and 
treatment; nor were there clear relationships between the occurrence of AEs in specific organ 
classes, individual AEs, their severity or relatedness, and treatment. Exposure increased in an 
approximately dose-proportional manner, with absolute bioavailability of 59%, providing a 
rationale for conducting further clinical studies of BI 655066 in patients with psoriasis. (M14-

RATIONALE, OBJECTIVES, AND BENEFIT - RISK 
ASSESSMENT
2.1
RATIONALE FOR PERFORMING THE TRIAL
The phase I, single rising dose study (1311.1) has shown proof of concept and proof of 
efficacy for BI 655066 in patients with moderate to severe psoriasis. 
The preceding phase II study (1311.2) will allow for the evaluation of the efficacy, safety, 
tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of three different dose regimens (18 
mg, 90 mg and 180 mg) of BI 655066, as well as dose-finding of BI 655066 for further 
studies. In addition the 1311.2 trial will compare the efficacy of BI 655066 with Stelara®, an 
approved therapy for patients with moderate to severe psoriasis.
The data generated from this extension study is anticipated to provide additional safety data 
of up to approximately four years treatment in approximately 100 patients treated with BI 
655066. Furthermore the study is being performed in order to allow extended access to a 
potential beneficial intervention, according to the principles laid down in the Declaration of 
Helsinki.
2.2
TRIAL OBJECTIVES
The overall purpose of this open label extension (OLE) trial is to assess long-term safety and 
efficacy (durability of response) of BI 655066 in patients with moderate to severe chronic 
plaque psoriasis. In addition, this study will provide an opportunity for subjects to have 
extended access to a proven active therapy for approximately four years administration.
The primary objective of the study is to investigate safety of BI 655066, in patients with 
moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis, receiving long-term treatment. 
Additional objectives of this study are to further investigate long-term efficacy, tolerability, 
pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and immunogenicity of BI 655066. 
Study endpoints are listed in Section 5.
2.3
BENEFIT - RISK ASSESSMENT
Results of the Phase I study with BI 655066 (study 1311.1) suggest that a single injection 
intravenously or subcutaneously (i.v. or s.c.) of BI 655066 is associated with substantial and 
durable improvements in the cutaneous manifestations of psoriasis. At doses of 0.25 mg/kg 
intravenously and above, all active dose groups showed improvement in mean PASI scores of 
at least 75% from baseline by week 12, which lasted at least until week 24. Similar 
improvements were observed in both of the active BI 655066 subcutaneous dose groups
(M14-0004). 
Patients rolling over in this OLE will have completed the single blind 1311.2 study where 
75% of all patients will have received BI 655066 at different dose levels.  Based on the 
preliminary data from study 1311.1 described in Section 1.2, where good tolerability was

shown, and no drug related serious adverse events (SAE), patients are likely to benefit from 
participation in this study.
Risks of participating in this study include risks related to the trial specific procedures such as 
blood sampling, subcutaneous injection of study medication. Blood sampling and 
subcutaneous injections can cause local bruising, inflammation, and pain. 
As with any immune modulating agent, BI 655066 has the potential to impair immune 
function resulting in a risk of infection. This will be addressed by clinical monitoring for AEs 
during the treatment and follow up periods. Interferon gamma (IFN-γ) release assay to M. 
tuberculosis will be obtained at the initial roll-over visit, in order to exclude or discontinue 
documented untreated patients with active or latent tuberculosis infection (TB). All patients 
will be re-tested at the Extended end of treatment visit in order to assess long-term impact of 
BI 655066 on M. tuberculosis exposure. Patients having current signs or symptoms of 
infection or history of serious infection will not be included in the study. 
The role of IL-23 in tumour immunity is not well established at this time, but an increased 
risk of cancer from an IL-23 antagonist, though considered small, cannot be excluded.
Major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), including myocardial infarction, 
cerebrovascular accident, and cardiovascular death, have been initially reported in association 
with the anti-IL-12/23 agents, ustekinumab and briakinumab, in patients with psoriasis. 
However, such a risk has not been confirmed among patients receiving ustekinumab for up to 
five years (R13-3518). The overall risk of MACE in the present study is considered to be 
low.
Local reactions to i.v. and s.c. administered biologic agents are uncommon, and are usually 
limited to redness, swelling or induration at the injection site. Manifestations of systemic 
hypersensitivity reactions include anaphylaxis, pruritus, hypotension, and respiratory distress. 
Both local and systemic hypersensitivity reactions are readily detectable, transient in nature, 
and manageable with standard medical treatment. No systemic hypersensitivity reactions 
have been reported with BI 655066 to date. Patients will be closely monitored 30 minutes to 
1 hour after drug administration for signs of redness, swelling or hardness at the injection site 
or generalized itching, dizziness or difficulty breathing.
Although rare, a potential for drug-induced liver injury is under constant surveillance by 
sponsors and regulators. Therefore, this study requires timely detection, evaluation, and 
follow-up of laboratory alterations of selected liver laboratory parameters to ensure patients´ 
safety (cf. section 10.4).
The study has been designed, and will be conducted in such a manner as to limit these risks 
as much as possible. In order to mitigate any safety signals as early as possible, an 
independent Data Monitoring Committee (DMC) will oversee this study. Since all patients 
will receive active treatment at a dose of, or greater than the projected marketed dose, most 
patients will likely have a benefit from participating in this study. Therefore, the benefit-risk 
assessment is considered appropriate for a clinical trial of an experimental therapy at this 
stage of development.

DESCRIPTION OF DESIGN AND TRIAL POPULATION
3.1
OVERALL TRIAL DESIGN AND PLAN
This open label extension trial (OLE), investigates the additional safety and efficacy of the 90 
mg dose of BI 655066.  Approximately 100 patients who meet the entry criteria are planned 
for inclusion in this trial, rolling over from the preceding 1311.2 trial. The treatment will be 
open label. 
The treatment period will be approximately four years of administration starting with first 
administration of BI 655066 in either trial 1311.2 or 1311.13, followed by a 12 week follow 
up period. After 01-May-2018 and approval of this protocol amendment in each respective 
country, the next study visit will be the Extended EOS visit and therewith the last visit in this 
study. Patients who have completed the study without early treatment discontinuation will be 
offered to roll over to M15-997 open label extension (OLE) trial if they fulfill the in- and 
exclusion criteria for the M15-997 trial. Refer to section 6.2.3.
Patients rolling over from the preceding trial 1311.2 will have to complete the treatment 
period in that trial, or complete the entire trial including the follow up period, reaching end of 
study. If, during the follow up period of the preceding trial (at any visit from week 24 and 
onwards in trial 1311.2) loss of response is detected, the patient can roll over in this extension 
trial. For this, loss of response is defined as < PASI50. 
Extended visit 1of this trial should preferably be performed as a combined visit the same day 
as End of Study visit of 1311.2, or within an interim period of maximum 6 weeks thereafter.

After the approval of this protocol amendment in each respective country, all patients will 
follow Flow Chart (Extended Dosing Period) and receive 90mg BI 655066 subcutaneously at 
their Extended visit 1 (EV1). From EV1 onwards, BI655066 will be administered 
subcutaneously every 12 weeks during the trial. At EV2, if there is a lack of response, 
defined as <PASI90, the dose should be increased to 180mg for the remainder of the trial (see 
Fig 3.1.2).
For ongoing patients under the previous protocol amendment (Pre-Extended Dosing Period, 
see Fig 3.1.3), EV1 should be conducted at the following time points:
1. For ongoing patients with ≥12 weeks since the EOT visit: Conduct EV1 as soon as 
possible 
2. For ongoing patients still undergoing treatment or with <12 weeks since the EOT 
visit: Conduct EV1 at the time of the next scheduled treatment or follow up visit 
(note: EV1 should not be conducted at the time point of Visit 2 under the previous 
protocol, patients with Visit 2 as their next scheduled visit should have their EV1 
replacing their Visit 3 instead)

If there are any tolerability issues, as assessed by the investigator, the patient will be 
discontinued. 
The plaque psoriasis will be evaluated by PASI score at each visit. The standard clinical 
endpoints of PASI50, PASI75, PASI90 and PASI100 will be assessed at each visit based on 
the baseline PASI from 1311.2.  
The end of study is defined as the date the last subject completes the Extended End-of-study 
visit. 
3.1.1
Administrative structure of the trial
The trial is sponsored by AbbVie in the US and Boehringer Ingelheim (BI) ex-US.
The trial is planned to be conducted at sites participating in the 1311.2 trial, i.e. it will be 
conducted at approximately 24 sites in 4 different countries. 
Boehringer Ingelheim has appointed a Trial Clinical Monitor (TCM), responsible for 
coordinating the activities required in order to manage the trial in accordance with applicable 
regulations and internal standard operating procedures (SOPs), directing the clinical trial 
team in the preparation, conduct and reporting of the trial and ensuring appropriate training 
and information for Local Clinical Monitors (CML), Clinical Research Associates (CRAs) 
and investigators of participating countries.
Data management will be done by BI according to BI SOPs and the Statistical Evaluation
will be done by AbbVie according to their SOPs. For these activities a Trial Data Manager 
and a Trial Statistician have been appointed. A list of responsible persons will be available in 
the Trial Master File (TMF).
The organisation of the trial in the participating countries will be performed by the respective 
local BI-organisation (Operation Unit (OPU)) or by a Contract Research Organisation (CRO) 
with which the responsibilities and tasks have been agreed and a written contract filed before 
initiation of the clinical trial. In each OPU participating in this study, a CML will be 
appointed responsible for coordinating the activities required, in order to manage the trial in 
accordance with applicable regulations and internal SOPs in the countries covered by the 
respective BI OPU.

3.2
DISCUSSION OF TRIAL DESIGN, INCLUDING THE CHOICE OF 
CONTROL GROUP(S)
Study 1311.13 is designed as an open label extension clinical trial, and is expected to 
generate additional safety information to support the registration submission. As noted in 
section 4.1.3 below, the intermediate dose (90 mg) from the 1311.2 study will be used, with 
the option of moving to a higher dose (180 mg) if inadequate clinical activity is noted. Our 
goal in this study is to obtain safety and efficacy data following long-term drug 
administration. As an open-label study, we realize that no powered or controlled analysis can 
be obtained. However, we will be able to evaluate initial tendencies and at the same time 
permit our early study participants an opportunity to maintain access to a therapy that initially 
has shown the potential to have significant clinical benefit.

to the discretion of the investigator to exclude patients based on clinical judgment, even if 
other eligibility criteria are satisfied. 
3.3.4
Removal of patients from therapy or assessments
3.3.4.1
Removal of individual patients
An individual patient is to be withdrawn from the trial if:
#
The patient withdraws consent, without the need to justify the decision.
#
Clinically important acute or chronic infections including hepatitis, HIV and tuberculosis 
(including latent tuberculosis), or a positive interferon gamma release assay (IGRA) 
testing for tuberculosis (cf. Table 5.2.3: 1) according to test at the roll-over visit. 
#
The patient is no longer able to participate for other medical reasons (e.g. pregnancy, 
surgery, AEs or other diseases).
A patient can be withdrawn after discussion between sponsor and investigator if eligibility 
criteria are being violated or if the patient fails to comply with the protocol (e.g. non-
attendance at study assessments). Note: Patients using restricted medications (cf. Section 
4.2.2), will continue to be followed up to collect safety data but their efficacy and PD 
endpoints assessed after administration of restricted medications will not be considered for 
analysis.
If a patient withdraws from the study after informed consent, this will be documented and the 
reason for withdrawal will be recorded in the case report form (CRF). This data will be 
included in the trial database and will be reported. At the time of discontinuation a complete 
end of treatment (Extended EOT) evaluation should be performed according to Flow Chart
and the patient will subsequently enter a follow up period of 12 weeks, until a final Extended 
EOS visit is performed. If the decision to discontinue study participation is taken in between 
study visits in the treatment period, an Extended EOT visit is to be scheduled at the earliest 
convenience and by the latest at the next upcoming visit according to Flow Chart and the 
information will be recorded in the CRFs.

Substance:
BI 655066: Anti-human IL23p19 mAb
Pharmaceutical formulation:
Chemical name:
Anti-human IL-23p19 mAb
Molecular weight:
Approximately 148 kDa
Source:
Boehringer Ingelheim Pharma GmbH & Co. KG
Unit strength:

(concentration 90 mg/ml)
Posology
Multiple doses
Route of administration:
s.c.
4.1.2
Method of assigning patients to treatment groups
Patients will receive a single dose of open label BI 655066 every 12 weeks. The initial dose 
for all patients moving into the open label extension study will be 90 mg. 
If response is maintained, i.e. achievement of PASI90 at Extended visit 2, 90 mg dosing will 
occur every 12 weeks until Extended EOT. 
If there is a lack of response, defined as response below PASI90 at Extended visit 2, the dose 
should be increased to 180 mg, and the 180 mg dosing will occur every 12 weeks until 
Extended EOT.
Detailed instructions for preparation of BI 655066 for administration of each dose will be 
given in the ISF.
4.1.3
Selection of doses in the trial
The treatment is derived from the treatment groups in the preceding phase II trial, where the 
dose selection is based on the completed phase I trial in which clinical improvement in 
patients with psoriasis was observed across a wide dose range (~18 mg -375 mg). 
The choice of the “90 mg/dose” was based on several pieces of data obtained in the initial 
1311.1 single-dose, dose-escalation study:  an analysis of dose given (and the subsequent 
“area under the curve” exposure data) plotted against the clinical response based on the PASI

score noted that the stable effective dose was likely to be greater than 1.0 mg/kg 
(approximately 90 mg) 
Subsequent to selection of the starting dose for 1311.13, an interim analysis of 1311.2 
indicated that the 180 mg dose resulted in a numerically higher proportion of patients who 
achieved PASI90. Since the higher dose was not associated with a higher incidence of any 
specific adverse events, patients who do not achieve PASI90 on the 90 mg dose are eligible 
to receive the higher dose of 180 mg. This dose is also consistent with the objective of 
obtaining safety data on a dose equal to or greater than the proposed “to be marketed” dose of 
150 mg, allowing us to obtain additional safety information appropriate for inclusion in future 
discussion with health authorities.
4.1.4
Drug assignment and administration of doses for each patient
The study drug will be administered by the physician investigator or by authorised study 
personnel (e.g. study nurse). The study drug will be administered as a subcutaneous injection 
in the abdomen, thighs, gluteal regions, or upper arms. Injections being given in the same 
area should be at least 2 cm apart and should not be close to a vein. The injection site should 
avoid sites of psoriasis involvement as well as sites where the skin is tender, bruised, 
erythematous, or indurated, and should be alternated to other areas for subsequent doses.
Further information regarding technique of injection and injection materials (syringes, 
needles) will be provided in the ISF. For 180 mg doses, two syringes of 1 ml BI 655066, each 
of 90 mg, will be allocated and injected. Dilution of the study medication is not allowed and 
no dose modification, apart from the protocol specified doses, is permitted.
Administration of biologic agents involves the risk of local (injection site) or systemic 
hypersensitivity reactions. Therefore the patients should be closely monitored for signs and 
symptoms of hypersensitivity reactions for approximately 1 hour after the first dose 
administered, and 30 minutes following all other doses of study drug. Study personnel should 
observe the injection site for signs of redness, swelling or hardness. They should also ask 
subjects about itching, dizziness or shortness of breath. Patients should be advised that if they 
experience redness, swelling or other changes at the injection site, they should notify site 
personnel. They should further be advised that if they experience itching all over or a feeling 
of being swollen, dizzy or short of breath, they should notify site personnel or their own 
healthcare provider immediately. 
Vital signs will be taken pre-dose, 5 minutes, and 1 hour (at roll-over visit) or 30 minutes (at 
following visits) after the dose is administered (cf. Flow Chart). Hypersensitivity reactions 
should be treated according to medical standards. Pre-medications for further injections might 
be considered and will be agreed on between investigator and BI clinical monitor. 
4.1.5
Blinding and procedures for unblinding
Not applicable.
In this open-label trial, treatment allocation will not be concealed throughout the study. The 
CRF will contain information on treatment.

4.2
CONCOMITANT THERAPY, RESTRICTIONS, AND RESCUE 
TREATMENT
4.2.1
Rescue medication, emergency procedures, and additional treatment(s)
In principle, any additional concomitant therapy considered necessary for the patient’s 
welfare may be given at the discretion of the investigator. Stable doses of concomitant 
therapies for chronic conditions, for which neither the condition nor the treatment are judged 
to exclude the patient from participation (cf. Section 3.3.3), are permissible. However, all 
concomitant medications being taken by eligible patients must be carefully evaluated, and 
questions on the use of concomitant medications should be discussed with the BI clinical 
monitor.
In the event that a patient experiences an intolerable increase of psoriasis during the course of 
the trial, topical steroids of US class 6 (mild, such as desonide) or US class 7 (least potent, 
such as hydrocortisone) will be permitted for use limited to the face, axilla, and/or genitalia. 
Details of the drug used and the reason must be recorded in the electronic case report forms 
(eCRF). These topical medications should not be used within approximately 24 hours prior to 
visits requiring the PASI.
Investigational products are not allowed during the course of the trial.
In case of adverse events in need of treatment, symptomatic therapy according to the 
judgment of the investigator will be permitted. All concomitant and/or rescue therapies will 
be recorded on the appropriate pages of the eCRF.
There are no special emergency procedures to be followed.
Patients with a positive IGRA testing (Tb screening) at the roll-over visit should be followed-
up according to local guidelines.
4.2.2
Restrictions

EFFICACY - PHARMACODYNAMICS
5.1.1
Endpoints of efficacy
5.1.1.1
Primary endpoint of efficacy
The primary efficacy endpoint is achievement of a ≥ 90% reduction in PASI score from 
baseline (i.e., achieving PASI90) at week 48 in the Extended dosing period.  Baseline PASI 
for this study is defined as the baseline PASI for the 1311.2 study. 
5.1.1.2
Secondary endpoints of efficacy
The following secondary endpoints will all be evaluated at week 48in the Extended dosing 
period:
#
achievement of PASI50
#
achievement of PASI75
#
achievement of PASI100
#
achievement of sPGA of clear or almost clear
5.1.1.3
Further endpoints of efficacy
Additional efficacy analyses will include, but are not limited to, the following:
#
achievement of PASI50 at all Extended dosing period visits where PASI is collected
#
achievement of PASI75 at all Extended dosing period visits where PASI is collected
#
achievement of PASI90 at all Extended dosing period visits where PASI is collected 
#
achievement of PASI100 at all Extended dosing period visits where PASI is collected 
#
achievement of sPGA of clear or almost clear at all visits where sPGA is collected
#
time to loss of PASI50, which is a time to failure endpoint.  This will be repeated using 
PASI75, PASI90, and PASI100 as the endpoint.
#
sPGA will be evaluated in terms of time to loss of response which is defined as a 
score exceeding 1, and will be evaluated as a time to failure endpoint
#
change from baseline in Pain-VAS (in subgroup of patients with psoriatic arthritis 
only where baseline VAS is from 1311.2)
#
mean DLQI scores at all Extended dosing period visits where PASI is collected
5.1.2
Assessment of efficacy
The PASI measures the severity of a patient’s psoriasis and the percent of the patient’s skin 
that is affected. See Section 10.1 for a detailed description of the PASI.
The Static Physician Global Assessment (sPGA) is a 6 point scale used by physicians to 
describe the severity of a patient’s psoriasis. See Section 10.2 for a detailed description of the

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, including an 
exacerbation of a pre-existing condition, in a patient in a clinical investigation who received a

pharmaceutical product. The event does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship 
with this treatment.
Serious adverse event
A serious adverse event (SAE) is defined as any AE which results in death, is immediately 
life-threatening, results in persistent or significant disability / incapacity, requires or prolongs 
patient hospitalisation, is a congenital anomaly / birth defect, or is to be deemed serious for 
any other reason if it is an important medical event when based upon appropriate medical 
judgement which may jeopardise the patient and may require medical or surgical intervention 
to prevent one of the other outcomes listed in the above definitions.
Intensity of adverse event
The intensity grading of AEs will be performed according to Rheumatology Common 
Toxicity Criteria (RCTC) Version 2.0 developed by Outcome Measures in Rheumatology
(OMERACT) (R13-3515). Cf. Appendix 10.7 and ISF for intensity/severity classification.
Causal relationship of adverse event
Medical judgment 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. Assessment of causal relationship should be recorded in the case report forms. 
Yes:
There is a reasonable causal relationship between the investigational product 
administered and the AE. 
No:
There is no reasonable causal relationship between the investigational product 
administered and the AE. 
Worsening of the underlying disease or other pre-existing conditions
Worsening of the underlying disease or of other pre-existing conditions will be recorded as an 
(S)AE in the (e)CRF.
Changes in vital signs, ECG, physical examination, and laboratory test results
Changes in vital signs, ECG, physical examination and laboratory test results will be
recorded as an (S)AE in the (e) CRF, if they are judged clinically relevant by the investigator.
Adverse Events of Special Interest (AESI)
The following are considered as Adverse events of Special Interest (AESI):
Hepatic injury defined by the following alterations of liver parameters (for patients with 
normal liver function at baseline): an elevation of AST and/or ALT >3 fold upper limit of 
normal (ULN) combined with an elevation of total bilirubin >2 fold ULN measured in the

Patients showing these lab abnormalities need to be followed up according to section 10.6 of 
this clinical trial protocol and the “Drug induced liver injury (DILI) checklist” provided in 
ISF.

Major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE).
Including, but not limited to the following preferred terms: Atherosclerosis, Coronary 
artery disease, Myocardial infarction, Angina Pectoris, Transient ischemic attack, 
Cerebrovascular accident (including Stroke), Cardiac failure congestive, Peripheral 
arterial occlusive disease.
ASEIs are to be reported in an expedited manner similar to Serious Adverse Events, even if 
they do not meet any of the seriousness criteria – for details please see section 5.2.2.2.
5.2.2.2
Adverse event and serious adverse event reporting
All adverse events, serious and non-serious, occurring during the course of the clinical trial 
(i.e., from signing the informed consent onwards through the Residual Effect Period (REP) 
/Extended follow-up period) will be collected, documented and reported to the sponsor by the 
investigator on the appropriate CRF(s) / eCRFs / SAE reporting forms. Reporting will be 
done according to the specific definitions and instructions detailed in the ‘Adverse Event 
Reporting’ section of the Investigator Site File. 
Reporting of Adverse Events in Remote Data Capture system (RDC):
AEs that are ongoing at the end of the previous trial (1311.2) will have to be re-entered, and 
any adverse events that have started between the two trials (in the event that the 6 weeks
time-window is used), will also be entered into the 1311.13 RDC system.
Reporting of Adverse Events on the SAE form: 
Specific instructions for the SAE reporting process concerning SAE forms in previous and 
roll-over studies will be provided in the ISF.
The REP for BI 655066 is 12 weeks. Therefore, all events reported within 12 weeks of the 
last trial medication will be considered on treatment. All adverse events will be reported up 
until the last per protocol visit (Extended EOS visit), which is 84 (+7 days) days after the last 
dose of trial medication.
The investigator does not need to actively monitor patients for AEs once the clinical trial has 
ended. However, if the investigator becomes aware of an SAE(s) that occurred after the 
patient has completed the clinical trial (including any protocol required REP and / or follow-
up), it should be reported by the investigator to the sponsor if considered relevant by the 
investigator.
For each adverse event, the investigator will provide the onset date, end date, intensity, 
treatment required, outcome, seriousness, and action taken with the investigational drug. The

investigator will determine the relationship of the investigational drug to all AEs as defined in 
Section 5.2.2.1. 
The investigator must report the following events using paper process SAE form via 
telephone/fax immediately (within 24 hours) to the sponsor: SAEs and non-serious AEs 
relevant to the SAE(s), and AESIs.
Boehringer Ingelheim has set up a list of AEs which are defined to be always serious. In 
order to support the investigator with the identification of these “always serious adverse 
events”, if a non-serious AE is identified to be serious per Boehringer Ingelheim definition, a 
query will be raised. The investigator must verify the description and seriousness of the 
event.  If the event description is correct, the item “serious” needs to be ticked and an SAE 
has to be reported in expedited fashion following the same procedure as above.
The list of these adverse events can be found via the RDC-system.
With receipt of any further information to these events, a follow-up SAE report has to be 
provided. SAEs and non-serious AEs must include a causal relationship assessment made by 
the investigator.
The SAE form is to be forwarded to the defined unique entry point identified for the BI OPU 
(country-specific contact details will be provided in the Investigator Site File) or by using the 
electronic submission process. This immediate report is required irrespective of whether the 
investigational product has been administered or not and irrespective of causal relationship. It 
also applies if new information to existing SAEs or AESIs becomes available. 
Pregnancy
In rare cases, pregnancy might occur in clinical trials. Once a female subject has been 
enrolled into the clinical trial, after having taken study medication, the investigator must 
report immediately any drug exposure during pregnancy to the sponsor. Drug exposure 
during pregnancy has to be reported immediately (within 24 hours or next business day 
whichever is shorter) to the defined unique entry point for SAE forms of the respective BI 
OPU (country-specific contact details will be provided in the Investigator Site File). The 
outcome of the pregnancy associated with the drug exposure during pregnancy must be 
followed up. In the absence of an (S)AE, only the Pregnancy Monitoring Form for Clinical 
Trials and not the SAE form is to be completed. The ISF will contain the Pregnancy 
Monitoring Form for Clinical Trials (Part A and Part B).

Assessment of safety laboratory parameters
The laboratory parameters that will be determined are listed in Tables 5.2.3: 1 and 5.2.3: 2 at
the time points provided in Flow Chart. The respective reference ranges will be provided in 
the ISF. The laboratory tests will be performed at a designated central laboratory, and if 
necessary by additional specialist laboratories.
Laboratory results of the patients will be available in real time to the respective investigator 
and to the clinical monitor of each country (central laboratory website), and selected

abnormal laboratory alerts will be sent automatically to the sites and to the sponsor in real 
time. PK, PD and biomarker data will not be available to the investigators or local clinical 
monitors, but only to the Trial Team (sponsor) and to the DMC.
Clinically relevant laboratory values will be commented on in the eCRF. A clinically relevant 
value may be either in- or outside the reference range. Clinically relevant abnormal 
laboratory test results must be repeated using an unscheduled visit lab kit and must be 
repeated until normalisation or stabilisation or until an alternative explanation has been 
found. Clinically relevant abnormal laboratory values will be also graded for intensity by 
using RCTC Version 2.0 criteria.
The tests listed in Table 5.2.3: 1 constitute laboratory tests and hormones (assessed in female 
patients only) that will be done only at the initial roll-over visit and at Extended EOT or 
Extended EOS after approval of amendment # 5 and start of the rollover of patients to the 
M15-997 study from 01-May-2018, i.e. these tests are only required at EV1 for patients that 
are having EV1 as their first 1311.13 visit. The results will not be included into the report.  
Samples will be archived and run as clinically necessary.

Electrocardiogram
The 12-lead ECGs (I, II, III, aVR, aVL, aVF, V1-V6) will be recorded after the patients have 
rested for at least 5 minutes in a supine position. Electrode placement will be performed 
according to the method of Wilson, Goldberger and Einthoven. The ECGs will be evaluated 
by the study physician investigator or designee. ECGs may be repeated for quality reasons 
and the repeat tracing may be used for analysis. Additional ECGs may be collected by the 
investigator for safety reasons. Abnormal ECG recordings will be noted, and clinically 
relevant abnormal findings will be reported as AEs by the investigator. Any ECG 
abnormalities will be carefully monitored and if necessary medically treated.
ECG recordings will be obtained from roll-over visit and every 24 weeks, until study end 
including Extended EOT visit and Extended EOS visit 
ECG measurements should, if possible, always precede blood sampling to avoid impact of 
sampling on the ECG results.
Signed and dated printouts of either ECG tracings or electronic ECG reports will be kept in 
the subject’s/patient’s medical file.

Systolic and diastolic BP as well as PR (by palpation, counted for 1 minute) will be measured 
after 5 minutes of rest in the supine position. (cf. Flow Chart for time points). 
Measurements of vital signs should, if possible, always precede blood sampling to avoid 
impact of sampling on the results of vital signs.
Medical examination
Complete physical examination will include vital sign assessment and general appearance as 
well as evaluation of all organ systems (eyes, ears, nose, mouth, and throat, neck, respiratory, 
cardiovascular, chest, gastrointestinal, lymphatic, musculoskeletal, skin, neurologic and 
psychiatric). Targeted physical examination will include vital sign assessment and evaluation 
of organ systems associated with AE(s) symptoms or laboratory abnormalities.
The medical examination carried out at the initial roll-over visit, will include documentation 
of patient information, informed consent, demographics including weight and waist 
circumference, smoking and alcohol history, relevant medical history and concomitant 
medication, review of inclusion/exclusion criteria, review of vital signs, 12-lead ECG and 
laboratory, and a complete physical examination.
Local tolerability
Local tolerability at the administration site of the subcutaneous injection will be assessed by 
the investigator according to “swelling”, “induration”, “heat”, “redness”, “pain”, or “other 
findings”.

evaluation of safety and tolerability of an s.c. drug, and they are widely used in this kind of 
study.
The PK parameters and measurements outlined in Section 5.5 are generally used as 
measurements to assess drug exposure.
The efficacy endpoints are standard for assessment of patients with moderate to severe 
psoriasis. In addition, a number of exploratory PD measures (biomarkers) are also 
incorporated in this CTP. As these biomarkers have not been validated as prognostic 
measures, they may be analysed selectively and may not be included in the clinical trial 
report.

DRUG CONCENTRATION MEASUREMENTS AND 
PHARMACOKINETICS
Time points for dosing, PK and ADA sampling are listed in Flow Chart. Date and exact clock 
time of administration as well as pharmacokinetic and ADA sampling time points will be 
recorded. They will be documented in the CRFs by the medical personnel.
5.5.1
Pharmacokinetic endpoint(s)
PK samples will serve to determine the following endpoints:
#
steady state trough concentrations of BI 655066.
Individual concentration-time data with descriptive statistics for trough concentrations will be 
presented in the CTR. If deemed necessary, further appropriate pharmacokinetic parameters 
might be calculated.
Pharmacokinetic data may additionally be analysed using population pharmacokinetic 
approach. For this purpose data may also be combined with data from other trials. Modelling 
activities will be planned and documented separately.
5.5.2
Methods of sample collection
5.5.2.1
Plasma sampling for pharmacokinetic analysis
For the quantification of analyte plasma concentrations, approximately 2.5 mL of blood will 
be taken from a forearm vein into a K3EDTA (ethylendiaminetetraacetic acid) anticoagulant 
blood-drawing tube at the time points listed in Flow Chart under PK sampling.
Mix the K3EDTA-anticoagulated blood samples gently and place on ice until centrifugation 
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. Centrifugation will 
last for approximately 10 minutes (at 2000 x g to 4000 x g) at approximately +4°C. Two 
aliquots of EDTA plasma samples will be obtained in two polypropylene cryotubes. The two 
aliquots should contain approximately 0.5 mL of plasma each. Until shipment on dry ice to 
the analytical laboratory, the plasma samples will be stored at -20°C or below at the clinical

site and at the analytical laboratory until analysis.  Both aliquots will be shipped (in separate 
shipments) to the assay laboratory for the determination of BI 655066.  Both aliquots will be 
stored until the finalization of the clinical trial report and permission for sample disposal is 
provided. Samples will be shipped on dry ice sufficient for 3 days transit.
5.5.2.2
Plasma sampling for assessment of anti-drug antibody
For the assessment of anti-drug antibody, approximately 2.5 mL of blood will be taken from 
a forearm vein into a K3EDTA anticoagulant blood-drawing tube at the time points listed in 
the Flow Chart under ADA.
Mix the K3EDTA-anticoagulated blood samples gently and place on ice until centrifugation 
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.  Centrifugation will 
last for approximately 10 minutes (at 2000 x g to 4000 x g) at approximately +4°C. Two 
aliquots of EDTA plasma samples will be obtained in two polypropylene cryotubes. Both 
aliquots should contain approximately 0.5 mL of plasma each.  Until shipment on dry ice to 
the analytical laboratory, the plasma samples will be stored at -20°C or below at the clinical 
site and at the analytical laboratory until analysis. Both aliquots will be shipped (in separate 
shipments) to the assay laboratory for the assessment of potential ADA to BI 655066. The 
ADA sample aliquots will be banked for possible/ additional ADA characterization in the 
future. Samples will be shipped on dry ice sufficient for 3 days transit. 
5.5.3
Analytical determinations
BI 655066 concentrations will be determined by a validated Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent 
Assay (ELISA).  
The presence of ADA to BI 655066 will be assessed via a tiered approach using a validated 
electrochemiluminescence assay (screening, confirmatory, and titration analysis as 
appropriate). Samples that are confirmed positive will then be characterized in a validated 
neutralizing antibody (NAb) assay. 
5.6
BIOMARKER(S)
Biomarkers associated with psoriatic disease and the IL-23 pathway will be assessed in 
plasma and serum from psoriasis patients, post treatment with BI 655066.
Blood samples (serum and plasma) will be collected at time points indicated in Flow Chart 
for the analysis of biomarkers. After completion of the study these samples may be used for 
not yet specified non-genetic biomarker analyses associated with autoimmune diseases as 
well as method development and evaluation. Samples will be stored for a maximum of 3 
years (under consideration of local legislation) upon signature of the final study report.

5.6.1
Endpoints based on biomarker(s)
Serum and plasma will be collected to assess changes in protein levels of disease specific 
markers such as but not limited to ∃defensin 2, neutrophil gelatinase associated lipocalin 
(NGAL), and S-100 proteins (A7, A8, A12) post treatment with BI 655066. These 
biomarkers are considered exploratory biomarkers and respective assays will need to be 
qualified to meet the required performance criteria.
5.6.2
Methods of sample collection
For the assessment of soluble protein biomarkers in serum, approximately 8 ml of blood will 
be collected from a forearm vein in a serum separation tube at time points indicated in the 
Flow Chart. The blood will be thoroughly mixed with clotting activation agent by inverting 
the tube not less than five times and will be allowed to clot for 30 minutes with the tube 
standing upright. The tube is then centrifuged at 1500 to 2000 x g for 15 minutes until clot 
and serum are separated by a well formed barrier. The serum will then be aliquoted in at least 
6 aliquots (in polypropylene tubes) of at least 500 μl and should be frozen immediately at -
20°C or below until shipment on dry ice to the analytical laboratory.
For the assessment of soluble protein biomarkers in plasma, approximately 8 ml of blood will 
be collected from a forearm vein in a potassium -EDTA (ethylendiaminetetraacetic acid)-
anticoagulant blood drawing tube at the time points indicated in the Flow Chart. Tube content 
will be mixed immediately by gently inverting the tube at least 8 to 10 times and tube will 
then be transferred into an ice bath until centrifugation. The EDTA-anticoagulated blood 
sample will be centrifuged within 30 minutes after collection (intermittent storage in ice 
water or on ice). Centrifugation will last for about 10 minutes at 2000-4000 x g at 4-8°C until 
cells and plasma are well separated. After centrifugation, the EDTA plasma will be aliquoted 
in at least 6 aliquots (in polypropylene tubes) of at least 500 μl and will be frozen 
immediately at -20°C or below.

PHARMACOKINETIC - PHARMACODYNAMIC RELATIONSHIP
No formal analysis of pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic relationships is planned.
If the data suggest a pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic relationship of special parameters, 
e.g. PASI, a detailed analysis may be performed.
Correlation between drug concentration and response may be made if adequate data are 
available. In addition, exploratory correlations may also be made between drug concentration 
and AEs.
Data may also be used to develop pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic models using nonlinear 
mixed effect modelling techniques, if feasible. For this purpose data may also be combined 
with data from other trials. Modelling activities will be planned and documented separately 
according to internal and external guidelines and SOP.

INVESTIGATIONAL PLAN
6.1
VISIT SCHEDULE
All subjects have to adhere to the visit schedule as specified in Flow Chart. Any missed 
appointments should be re-scheduled as soon as possible. If any visit has to be rescheduled, 
subsequent visits should follow the original visit date scheduled. The investigator/sponsor 
could decide to arrange an unscheduled visit if deemed necessary (e.g. for safety follow-up 
reasons).
For detailed description of the trial procedures, please refer to Flow Chart.
In general, if several measurements including venipuncture are scheduled for the same point 
of time, venipuncture should, if possible, be the last of the measurements due to its mild 
discomfort to the patient and possible influence on physiologic parameters. 
6.2
DETAILS OF TRIAL PROCEDURES AT SELECTED VISITS
6.2.1
Screening and run-in period(s)
Patients in the 1311.2 trial that fulfil the criteria for roll over, either by response < PASI50
between week 24 and week 44, or completing the entire preceding trial reaching week 48
according to protocol, will be asked to participate in this open label extension trial. Upon 
their agreement, they will immediately enter the treatment phase. Therefore, no screening or 
run-in procedures are defined in this protocol. 
6.2.2
Treatment period(s)
6.2.2.1 Rollover visit - Extended visit 1
After the approval of this protocol amendment in each respective country, all patients will 
follow Flow Chart (Extended dosing period) and receive 90mg BI 655066 subcutaneously at 
their Extended visit 1 (EV1). From EV1 onwards, BI655066 will be administered 
subcutaneously every 12 weeks during the trial. At EV2, if there is inadequate response, 
defined as <PASI90, the dose should be increased to 180mg for the remainder of the trial.
For ongoing patients from under the previous amendment (Pre-Extended Dosing Period, see 
Figure 3.1.3), EV1 should be conducted at the following time points:
1. For ongoing patients with ≥12 weeks since the EOT visit: Conduct EV1 as soon as 
possible 
2. For ongoing patients still undergoing treatment or with <12 weeks since the EOT 
visit: Conduct EV1 at the time of the next scheduled treatment or follow up visit 
(note: EV1 should not be conducted at the time point of Visit 2 under the previous 
protocol, patients with Visit 2 as their next scheduled visit should have their EV1 
replacing their Visit 3 instead)

Patients completing their EOS of 1311.2 and rolling over after approval of this protocol
amendment, is immediately entering the Extended dosing period at EV1 of this trial. Eligible 
patients from 1311.2 who sign the informed consent for trial 1311.13, should preferably have 
Extended visit 1 of trial 1311.13 performed on the same day as the last visit in 1311.2, or 
within an interim period of up to 6 weeks thereafter. 
Assessments performed at EOS in the previous trial do not have to be repeated at Extended 
visit 1 in this trial, if performed as combined visits. If EV1 is performed as a separate visit to 
1311.2 EOS, all EV1assessments should be performed, but specific assessments are only 
required at EV1 for patients that are having EV1 as their first 1311.13 visit, see Flow Chart 
for further instructions. 
Written informed consent in accordance with GCP and local legislation must be obtained 
prior to any study related procedure taking place. If not performed as combined visits, 
informed consent must therefore be signed before the roll-over visit due to lab sampling 
fasting at EV1 in trial 1311.13.
Review of the following inclusion/exclusion criteria will be based on the last available lab 
result from previous trial, at the time of roll-over, and needs to be re-assessed as soon as 
1311.2 EOS/1311.13 roll-over visit results are available:
#
Inclusion criteria 3 (Negative serum ß-Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (ß-HCG)) 
Exclusion criteria 8 (Any clinically significant laboratory abnormalities)
Check consistency in medical history with the data obtained at visit 1 of the previous trial. 
All changes in medical history must be documented as adverse events and will be followed 
up as such during this trial. 
Re-record ongoing adverse events/concomitant medications from the previous trial and 
record any adverse events/concomitant medications that may have started between the two 
trials, in the event that the 6 week time-window between trials was used. 
All patients will be administered 90 mg BI 655066 s.c. at Extended visit 1. 
6.2.2.2 Extended Dosing Period
After 12 weeks, if there is a lack of response, defined as response below PASI90 at Extended 
visit 2, the dose should be increased to 180 mg, and 180 mg dosing will occur every 12 weeks 
until Extended EOT.
Self-administered patient questionnaire (DLQI) should be completed by the patient before 
any other visit assessments or treatments. 
For detailed description of the trial procedures, please refer to Flow Chart.

6.2.3
End of trial and Extended follow-up period
Trial 1311.13 is an open label extension trial which was set up in order to assess the long 
term safety and efficacy of Risankizumab (BI 655066) in patients with plaques psoriasis who 
have completed the phase 2 trial 1311.2. Moreover, this trial was meant to offer patients 
continuous treatment with Risankizumab until the marketing approval and availability of 
Risankizumab in the respective participating countries.
In the course of the acquisition of Risankizumab by Abbvie and the transition of 
responsibilities from BI to Abbvie it is planned to transfer the patients who are treated in 
1311.13 into M15-997 which is sponsored and conducted by Abbvie. M15-997 is an open 
label extension trial in which patients who have completed one of the Risankizumab pivotal 
trials in the indication of plaques psoriasis receive 150 mg Risankizumab every 12 weeks.
For patients who discontinue study medication before Extended end of treatment (for any 
reason), or before approval of this amendment and start to rollover patients to the M15-997 
from 01-May-2018 an early Extended EOT visit should be scheduled. If the decision to 
discontinue study participation is taken at a regular study visit, the visit should be turned into 
an Extended EOT visit. If the decision to discontinue study participation is taken in between 
study visits, an Extended EOT visit is to be scheduled at the earliest convenience and by the 
latest at the next upcoming visit according to the Flow Chart. This early Extended EOT visit 
will include the same procedures as the normal EOT, and the patient will subsequently enter a 
follow up period of 12 weeks, until a final Extended EOS visit is performed. If the decision to 
discontinue is taken in the Extended follow up period, the Extended EOS visit is to be 
scheduled at the earliest convenience. The procedures described at Extended EOS will be 
performed and the information will be recorded in the CRFs.
The end of study procedures are listed in Flow Chart. 
6.2.3.1 Vital status
In case of early discontinuation, information should be collected to differentiate between 
patients lost to follow-up (investigator not able to contact the patient despite multiple 
attempts) versus patients the investigator was able to contact who elected to discontinue study 
participation for any reason. Patients will be asked to give consent to be contacted (or for 
their primary care physician to be contacted) by the study team to obtain vital status 
information preferably at the time of study entry. This consent must be documented in the 
patient notes. Patient’s vital status, including cause of death, will be collected every 12 
months from Extended EOS until the last patient completes the regular scheduled Extended 
EOS. Vital status data will be collected in the eCRFs.
All clinically significant abnormal values (including laboratory parameters) will be followed 
up using the appropriate tests until a return to a medically acceptable level is achieved. AEs 
persisting after trial completion must be followed up, until they have normalised or been 
sufficiently characterised.

STATISTICAL METHODS AND DETERMINATION OF
SAMPLE SIZE
7.1
STATISTICAL DESIGN - MODEL
This is a double arm extension trial of patients treated with BI 655066 after participation in a 
clinical trial of BI 655066.  Descriptive statistical models include a responder analysis (e.g., 
achieving PASI90, sPGA of clear or almost clear, etc.), time to loss of response (e.g., 
achieving PASI90, sPGA of clear or almost clear, etc.), time to AESI, and time to antibody 
development formation.  No statistical testing will be done.
7.2
NULL AND ALTERNATIVE HYPOTHESES
The primary hypothesis is that BI 655066 will sustain effectiveness without emergent safety 
issues during the extended visit period. This will be characterized descriptively. There is no 
formal statistical hypothesis testing in this study.
7.3
PLANNED ANALYSES
The descriptive analyses will be based on proportions of patients achieving a response (e.g., 
achieving PASI90, sPGA of clear or almost clear, etc.), Kaplan Meier empirical survival 
curves to describe patterns of event incidence, and cumulative event rates at critical time-
point.
The study is designed to gain as much exposure as possible with adequate documentation of 
safety, efficacy, and antibody emergence.  
For all analyses, baseline refers to the baseline value in the 1311.2 study.
7.3.1
Primary analyses
The achievement of PASI90 at week 48 in the Extended dosing period is the primary efficacy 
endpoint, which is a binary variable. 
For primary safety, the overall incidence rates of AEs, drug related AEs, and SAEs will be 
calculated.
7.3.2
Secondary analyses
The same methods as discussed for the primary analyses will be used to analyse all binary 
secondary and other endpoints, which include achievement of PASI50 / PASI75 / PASI90 / 
PASI100 at all Extended dosing period visits where PASI is collected and achievement of 
sPGA of clear or almost clear at all Extended dosing period visits where sPGA is collected.
Time to loss of PASI50 / PASI75 / PASI90 / PASI100, and time to loss of sPGA of clear or 
almost clear will be analysed using a Kaplan-Meier estimate.

Percent change from baseline in Pain-VAS for patients with non-zero baseline will be 
summarized descriptively at time points collected. 
DLQI will be summarized descriptively at time points collected.
Additional information on these analyses will be provided in the trial statistical analysis plan.
7.3.3
Safety analyses
All subjects who received one dose of study drug will be included in the safety evaluation.
Safety analyses will focus on adverse events related to early discontinuation, immune 
suppression and injection site effects. AEs will be coded using the Medical Dictionary for 
Drug Regulatory Affairs (MedDRA). All AEs occurring up to 12 weeks after the last trial 
medication administration will be assigned to the treatment period for evaluation. The 
evaluation of adverse events will comprise various frequency tabulations. The additional 
analyses of pre-defined AESI will consider the frequency, intensity, time to first onset of the 
AE, duration of the AE and clinical consequences (e.g. study discontinuation).
Analysis of laboratory measures will similarly focus on hematologic measures of immune 
suppression. Descriptive statistics of laboratory values over time and for the difference from 
baseline will be provided. Frequency tables of changes with respect to the reference range 
between baseline and last/worst value on treatment and patients with possible clinically 
significant abnormalities will also be presented.
Immunogenicity will be evaluated in terms of time to antibody emergence starting from the 
time of first exposure to BI 655066 in either 1311.2 or 1311.13. This will be analysed using a 
Kaplan-Meier estimate.
Safety will also be assessed by evaluation of vital signs (BP, PR, RR, oral or tympanic body 
temperature) and local tolerability.
7.3.4
Interim analyses
Results will be analysed periodically by the sponsor and DMC in order to review the
accumulating safety data of BI 655066 in psoriasis.
7.3.5
Pharmacokinetic analyses
Individual concentration-time data with descriptive statistics for trough concentrations will be 
presented in the clinical trial report.
Population pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic analysis, if performed, will be reported 
separately.

HANDLING OF MISSING DATA
Use of inappropriate concomitant medication to treat psoriasis will be considered as failure 
when deriving response variables, e.g. PASI90. 
Further details on the handling of missing data will be provided in the Trial Statistical 
Analysis Plan.
7.5
RANDOMISATION
There is no randomisation for this study.  All patients will be assigned to the same regimen 
and dose of BI 655066, regardless of the treatment and dose received in the 1311.2 study.

Declaration of Helsinki, in accordance with the International conference on harmonisation 
(ICH) Harmonised Tripartite Guideline for Good Clinical Practice (GCP) and relevant BI 
Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs). Standard medical care (prophylactic, diagnostic and 
therapeutic procedures) remains in the responsibility of the treating physician of the patient.
The investigator should inform the sponsor immediately of any urgent safety measures taken 
to protect the study subjects against any immediate hazard, and also of any serious breaches 
of the protocol/ICH GCP.
The rights of the investigator and of the sponsor with regard to publication of the results of 
this trial are described in the investigator contract. As a general rule, no trial results should be 
published prior to finalisation of the Clinical Trial Report.
Insurance Cover: The terms and conditions of the insurance cover are made available to the 
investigator and the patients via documentation in the ISF (Investigator Site File).
8.1
STUDY APPROVAL, PATIENT INFORMATION, AND INFORMED 
CONSENT
This trial will be initiated only after all required legal documentation has been reviewed and 
approved by the respective Institutional Review Board (IRB) / Independent Ethics Committee 
(IEC) and competent authority (CA) according to national and international regulations. The 
same applies for the implementation of changes introduced by amendments.
Prior to patient participation in the trial, written informed consent must be obtained from each 
patient (or the patient’s legally accepted representative) according to ICH GCP and to the 
regulatory and legal requirements of the participating country. Each signature must be 
personally dated by each signatory and the informed consent and any additional patient-

correspondence, and the informed consent documentation of this clinical trial.
8.3
RECORDS
Case Report Forms (CRFs) for individual patients will be provided by the sponsor, either on 
paper or via remote data capture. For drug accountability, refer to Section 4.1.8.
8.3.1
Source documents
Source documents provide evidence for the existence of the patient and substantiate the 
integrity of the data collected. Source documents are filed at the investigator’s site.
Data entered in the eCRFs that are transcribed from source documents must be consistent 
with the source documents or the discrepancies must be explained. The investigator may need 
to request previous medical records or transfer records, depending on the trial; also current 
medical records must be available.
For eCRFs all data must be derived from source documents.
8.3.2
Direct access to source data and documents
The investigator / institution will permit trial-related monitoring, audits, IRB / IEC review 
and regulatory inspection, providing direct access to all related source data / documents. 
CRFs/eCRFs and all source documents, including progress notes and copies of laboratory and 
medical test results must be available at all times for review by the sponsor’s clinical trial 
monitor, auditor and inspection by health authorities (e.g. Food and Drug Administration 
(FDA)). The Clinical Research Associate (CRA) / on site monitor and auditor may review all 
CRFs/eCRFs, and written informed consents. The accuracy of the data will be verified by 
reviewing the documents described in Section 8.3.1.
8.4
LISTEDNESS AND EXPEDITED REPORTING OF ADVERSE EVENTS
8.4.1
Listedness
To fulfil the regulatory requirements for expedited safety reporting, the sponsor evaluates 
whether a particular adverse event is "listed", i.e. is a known side effect of the drug or not.
Therefore a unique reference document for the evaluation of listedness needs to be provided. 
For the BI 655066 this is the current version of the Investigator’s Brochure (U12-3042). The 
current version of this reference document is to be provided in the ISF. No AEs are classified 
as listed for matching placebo, study design, or invasive procedures.
8.4.2
Expedited reporting to health authorities and IECs/IRBs
Expedited reporting of serious adverse events, e.g. suspected unexpected serious adverse 
reactions (SUSARs) to health authorities and IECs/IRBs, will be done according to local 
regulatory requirements. Further details regarding this reporting procedure are provided in the 
Investigator Site File.

APPENDICES
10.1
PASI SCORE DEFINITION AND INSTRUCTIONS
The PASI score is an established measure of clinical efficacy for psoriasis medications. (R96-
3541)
To calculate the PASI score, the four main body areas are assessed: head (h), trunk (t), 
upper extremities (u) and lower extremities (l). These correspond to 10, 30, 20 and 40% of 
the total body area respectively.
The area of psoriatic involvement of these four areas (Ah, At, Au, and Al) is given a 
numerical value: 0 = no involvement, 1 = <10%, 2 = 10 to <30%, 3 = 30 to <50%, 4 = 50 to 
<70%, 5 = 70 to <90%, and 6 = 90 to 100% involvement.
The signs of severity, erythema (E), infiltration (I) and desquamation (D) of lesions are 
assessed using a numeric scale 0-4 where 0 is a complete lack of cutaneous involvement and
4 is the severest possible involvement; scores are made independently for each of the areas, h, 
t, u and l and represents a composite score for each area. An illustration of judging erythema 
follows: 0 = no erythema, 1 = slight erythema, 2 = moderate erythema, 3 = striking erythema, 
and 4 = exceptionally striking erythema.
The PASI score is calculated according to the following formula:
PASI = 0.1(Eh+Ih+Dh)Ah + 0.3(Et+It+Dt)At + 0.2(Eu+Iu+Du)Au + 0.4(El+Il+Dl)Al

10.2 
STATIC PHYSICIAN'S GLOBAL ASSESSMENT (SPGA) OF THE NPF 
PSORIASIS SCORE (NPFPS)
The NPF Psoriasis Score (NPFPS) was devised by the National Psoriasis Foundation Medical
Advisory Board to address deficiencies inherit in the PASI, and to provide a dynamic, 
reproducible, and easy 5-component method to measure clinically significant improvement in 
trials of new or existing psoriatic therapies (R03-1207, R03-1208). The static Physician 
Global Assessment (sPGA) is one of five components of the NPFPS, and may be used 
independently (R03-1207, R03-1208).
The primary sPGA variable to be analysed will be the proportion of patients that are "clear or 
almost clear". This has been shown to correlate well with PASI75 or higher score.
For patients to be considered “clear,” the average of the 3 components must be zero (with 
standard rounding rules, i.e., 0.333 rounds to 0) and the score for thickness must equal zero.
For patients to be considered “almost clear,” the average of the 3 components must be 1 (with 
standard rounding rules, i.e., 1.333 rounds to 1) and each of the individual components must 
be less than 3 (in other words, each of the 3 components must be equal 0, 1, or 2).
Additionally, patients with an average of the 2 components equal to zero but with a thickness 
score of 1 will be considered as “almost clear.”
Static Physician Global Assessment (averaged over all lesions)
0
clear
= cleared, except for residual discoloration
1
almost clear
= majority of lesions have individual scores for thickness (a), erythema 
(b) and scaling (c) that averages 1.
2
mild
= majority of lesions have individual scores for thickness (a), erythema 
(b) and scaling (c) that averages 2.
3
moderate
= majority of lesions have individual scores for thickness (a), erythema 
(b) and scaling (c) that averages 3.
4
marked
= majority of lesions have individual scores for thickness (a), erythema 
(b) and scaling (c) that averages 4.
5
severe
= majority of lesions have individual scores for thickness (a), erythema 
(b) and scaling (c) that averages 5.
(a) Thickness (averaged over all lesions)
0 = no evidence of plaque elevation
1 = minimal plaque elevation, ≈ 0.25 mm
2 = mild plaque elevation, ≈ 0.5 mm

3 = moderate plaque elevation, ≈ 0.75 mm
4 = marked plaque elevation, ≈ 1 mm
5 = severe plaque elevation, ≈1.25 mm or more
Thickness in the sPGA may be graded with the aid of a reference card, which has embossed 
elevations ranging from 0 to 1.25 mm that increase linearly at 0.25 mm increments 
corresponding to varying levels of thickness (0-5) for each target lesion. The dermatologist 
should select 3 or more representative lesions (e.g., lesions not on the face, scalp, 
intertriginous areas or only on elbows or knees) at the time of the visit and measure their 
thickness. These can be averaged to derive the thickness score. The investigator should assess 
the average degree of thickness and then select the number that most represents this. For any 
assessments that fall half way between any two numbers on the scale, the investigator will be 
told to always round up to the higher number. This would result in then the following implied 
range: 0 = 0 to <0.125 mm, 1 = ≥0.125 to <0.375 mm, 2 = ≥0.375 to <0.625mm, 3 = ≥0.625 
to <0.875mm, 4 = ≥0.875 to <1.25mm and 5 = ≥1.25mm.
(b) Erythema (averaged over all lesions)
0 = no evidence of erythema, hypo- or hyper-pigmentation may be present
1 = faint erythema
2 = light red coloration
3 = moderate red coloration
4 = bright red coloration
5 = dusky to deep red coloration
(c) Scaling (averaged over all lesions)
0 = no evidence of scaling
1 = minimal; occasional fine scaling over less than 5% of the lesion
2 = mild; fine scaling predominates
3 = moderate; coarse scaling predominates
4 = marked; thick, non-tenacious scaling predominates
5 = severe; very thick tenacious scaling predominates
10.3
PAIN VISUAL ANALOG SCALE (VAS)
If a patient has psoriatic arthritis, the patient will assess their psoriatic arthritis at each 
protocol defined time point. A global estimate of pain caused by joint disease will be 
estimated by the patient’s response to the question: “The very left end of the scale is 
equivalent to “no pain” at all whereas the right end of the scale is equivalent to “worst 
possible pain”. How much pain have you had because of your illness in the past week?” 
Response is captured using a VAS (range 0 to 100, where 100 is highest severity) and results 
will be summarized.

DERMATOLOGY LIFE QUALITY INDEX
DLQI is a subject-administered,10-question, validated, quality of life questionnaire that 
covers 6 domains including symptoms and feelings, daily activities, leisure, work and school, 
personal relationships and treatment. Response categories include “not relevant” (score of 0), 
“not at all” (score of 0), “a little” (score of 1), “a lot” (score of 2) and “very much” (score of 
3). Question 7 is a “yes”/ “no” question where “yes” is scored as 3.
The DLQI will be analysed under six headings as follows (R05-2548): 
Domain
Question Number
Score                  
Symptoms and feelings
Questions 1 and 2
Score maximum 6
Daily activities
Questions 3 and 4
Score maximum 6
Leisure
Questions 5 and 6
Score maximum 6
Work and school
Question 7
Score maximum 3
Personal relationships
Questions 8 and 9
Score maximum 6
Treatment
Question 10
Score maximum 3
DLQI total score is calculated by summing the scores of each question resulting in a range of 
0 to 30 where 0-1 = no effect on subject’s life, 2-5 = small effect, 6-10 = moderate effect, 11-
20 = very large effect, and 21-30 = extremely large effect on subject’s life. The higher the 
score, the more the quality of life is impaired. If the answer to one question in a domain is 
missing, that domain is treated as missing. If 2 or more questions are left unanswered 
(missing), DLQI total score is treated as missing. A 5-point change from baseline is 
considered a clinically important difference.

PSORIATIC ARTHRITIS SCREENING AND EVALUATION TOOL
If a patient has psoriatic arthritis or if psoriatic arthritis is suspected at the roll-over visit , the 
psoriatic arthritis screening and evaluation (PASE) questionnaire should be performed. It will 
then be measured once per year until study end. The PASE questionnaire is a self-
administered tool that can be used to screen for psoriatic arthritis among patients with 
psoriasis. PASE can distinguish between symptoms of psoriatic arthritis and osteoarthritis 
(R13-3802).
Psoriatic Arthritis Screening and Evaluation (PASE) Questionnaire
Please circle or mark ONLY ONE of the five choices on the following 15 questions. The 
answers to these questions will help us better understand your symptoms. This should take 
about 5 to 6 minutes to complete. Thank you for your time.

CLINICAL EVALUATION OF LIVER INJURY
10.6.1
Introduction
Alterations of liver laboratory parameters, as described in Section 5.2.2.1 (Adverse Events of 
Special Interest), are to be further evaluated using the following procedures: 
10.6.2
Procedures
Repeat the following laboratory tests: ALT, AST, and bilirubin (total and direct) - within 48 
to 72 hours and provide additional blood sample to the central laboratory for automatic reflex 
testing of the below listed laboratory parameters. Only in case whereby the central laboratory 
is not immediately available (e.g. if the logistics are such that the patient´s repeat specimen 
would not reach the central laboratory in a reasonable timeframe), ALT, AST, and bilirubin 
(total and direct) will be evaluated by local laboratory and results are made available to the 
investigator and to BI as soon as possible. If in such a case ALT and/or AST >3 fold ULN 
combined with an elevation of total bilirubin >2 fold ULN are confirmed, results of the 
laboratory parameters described below must be made available to the investigator and to BI 
as soon as possible.
In addition, 
o
obtain a detailed history of current symptoms and concurrent diagnoses and 
medical history according to the “DILI checklist” provided in the ISF 
o
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;
o
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, ceruloplasmin, α-1 antitrypsin, 
transferrin, 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

Haematology
Thrombocytes, eosinophils
o
Provide abdominal ultrasound to rule out biliary tract, pancreatic or 
intrahepatic pathology, e.g. bile duct stones or neoplasm.
o
Initiate close observation of subjects by repeat testing of ALT, AST, and total 
bilirubin (with fractionation by total and direct) at least weekly until the 
laboratory ALT and / or AST abnormalities stabilize or return to normal, then 
according to the protocol. 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).
