| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Number of Patients With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (AEs) at Week 48 | From first dose until Week 48, up to 48 weeks. | Number of patients with treatment emergent adverse events (AEs) at week 48. The treatment emergent adverse event refer to the adverse event with an onset between start of treatment and end of the 16-week residual effect period after the last dose of trial medication. |

|---|---|---|
| Percentage Change From Baseline in the Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) Score at Week 48 | At baseline and at Week 48. | The EASI scoring system is used routinely in patients with psoriasis to describe signs and severity of the disease. It assesses the extent of disease at four body sites and measures four clinical signs: erythema, induration/papulation, excoriation, and lichenification (each on a scale of 0 to 3 (0 = none, absent; 1 = mild; 2 = moderate; 3 = severe)). The EASI score was obtained by weight-averaging these 4 scores, resulting in the EASI score ranges from 0 (clear) to 72 (very severe), with higher score indicating more severe disease extent and clinical signs. The percent change from baseline in EASI is calculated as: (EASI at week 48 - EASI at baseline) / EASI at baseline \* 100%. |
| Percentage of Patients With a 50% Improvement From Baseline in EASI (EASI50) at Week 48 | At baseline and at Week 48. | The EASI scoring system is used routinely in patients with psoriasis to describe signs and severity of the disease. It assesses the extent of disease at four body sites and measures four clinical signs: erythema, induration/papulation, excoriation, and lichenification (each on a scale of 0 to 3 (0 = none, absent; 1 = mild; 2 = moderate; 3 = severe)). The EASI score was obtained by weight-averaging these 4 scores, resulting in the EASI score ranges from 0 (clear) to 72 (very severe), with higher score indicating more severe disease extent and clinical signs. \[(EASI at week 48 - EASI at baseline) / EASI at baseline \* 100%\] ≥ 50%, then EASI50 = 1. |
| Percentage of Patients With a 75% Improvement From Baseline in EASI (EASI75) at Week 48 | At baseline and at Week 48. | The EASI scoring system is used routinely in patients with psoriasis to describe signs and severity of the disease. It assesses the extent of disease at four body sites and measures four clinical signs: erythema, induration/papulation, excoriation, and lichenification (each on a scale of 0 to 3 (0 = none, absent; 1 = mild; 2 = moderate; 3 = severe)). The EASI score was obtained by weight-averaging these 4 scores, resulting in the EASI score ranges from 0 (clear) to 72 (very severe), with higher score indicating more severe disease extent and clinical signs. \[(EASI at week 48 - EASI at baseline) / EASI at baseline \* 100%\] ≥ 75%, then EASI75 = 1. |
| Change From Baseline in SCORing of Atopic Dermatitis (SCORAD) at Week 48 | At baseline and at Week 48. | The SCORing of Atopic Dermatitis (SCORAD) index assesses elements: extent of disease, disease severity and subjective symptoms. The SCORAD consists of three elements: extent of disease, intensity of disease, and subjective symptoms (Pruritus and Sleep Loss). These 3 aspects: extent of disease (A: score range 0-1-2), disease severity (B: score range 0-18), and subjective symptoms (C: score range 0-20) combine using A/5 + 7\*B/2+ C to give a maximum possible score of 103 for SCORAD score. The SCORAD range from 0 (no disease) to 103 (severe disease). The higher the SCORAD score, the more severe the Atopic Dermatitis is. |
| Percentage of Patients Achieving at Least a 2-grade Reduction From Baseline to Clear (0) or Almost Clear (1) in Investigator Global Assessment (IGA) at Week 48 | At baseline and at Week 48. | The IGA scale allows investigators to assess overall disease severity at one given time point, and it consists of a five-point severity scale from clear to very severe disease (0= clear,1 =almost clear, 2 = mild disease, 3 = moderate disease, 4= severe disease). The IGA scale uses clinical characteristics of erythema, infiltration, papulation, oozing and crusting as guidelines for the overall severity assessment. |

Recruitment details
This open label extension clinical trial was planned to offer all patients who completed the clinical trial 1368-0032 (NCT03822832) as planned, the option to continue to receive BI 655130 treatment if they have responded to treatment and meet all criteria for study entry.
Pre-assignment details
All subjects were screened for eligibility prior to participation in the trial. Subjects attended a specialist site which ensured that they (the subjects) strictly met all inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria. Subjects were not to be allocated to a treatment group if any of the entry criteria were violated.
