- Previous systemic therapy

Exclusion Criteria:

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Percentage of Participants With ppPASI 75 Response at Week 16 (Period 1) The primary endpoint was assessed by the palmoplantar pustulosis Psoriasis Area and Severity Index 75 (ppPASI 75). The percentage of subjects who achieved a 75% reduction in ppPASI score from Baseline to Week 16 was measured. The ppPASI is a modification of the PASI score and adjusted for palmoplantar pustular psoriasis by classifying and scoring erythema, scaling (desquamation) and pustules/vesicles. Both palms and both plants are scored from 0 to 4. The extent of involvement of each region of the body is scored from 0 to 6. The total ppPASI score can range from a lower level of 0, corresponding to no signs of psoriasis, up to a maximum of 72. Baseline to Week 16
Secondary ppPASI: Absolute Change From Baseline to Week 16 A secondary endpoint was assessed by the palmoplantar pustulosis Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (ppPASI). The mean change of ppPASI score from Baseline to Week 16 was measured. The ppPASI is a modification of the PASI score and adjusted for palmoplantar pustular psoriasis by classifying and scoring erythema, scaling (desquamation) and pustules/vesicles. Both palms and both plants are scored from 0 to 4. The extent of involvement of each region is scored from 0 to 6. The total ppPASI score can range from a lower level of 0, corresponding to no signs of psoriasis, up to a maximum of 72. Baseline to Week 16
Secondary Percentage of Participants With ppPASI 75 Response Over Time (Period 1) A secondary endpoint was assessed as response rate of patients to treatment measured by the palmoplantar pustulosis Psoriasis Area and Severity Index 75 (ppPASI 75). The percentage of subjects who achieve a 75% reduction in ppPASI score from Baseline to each post-baseline visit is measured. The ppPASI is a modification of the PASI score and adjusted for palmoplantar pustular psoriasis by classifying and scoring erythema, scaling (desquamation) and pustules/vesicles. Both palms and both plants are scored from 0 to 4. The extent of involvement of each region of the body is scored from 0 to 6. The total ppPASI score can range from a lower level of 0, corresponding to no signs of psoriasis, up to a maximum of 72. Baseline to Week 16
Secondary Percentage of Participants With ppPASI 75 Response Over Time (Period 2) A secondary endpoint was assessed as response rate of patients to treatment measured by the palmoplantar pustulosis Psoriasis Area and Severity Index 75 (ppPASI 75). The percentage of subjects who achieve a 75% reduction in ppPASI score from Baseline to each post-baseline visit is measured. The ppPASI is a modification of the PASI score and adjusted for palmoplantar pustular psoriasis by classifying and scoring erythema, scaling (desquamation) and pustules/vesicles. Both palms and both plants are scored from 0 to 4. The extent of involvement of each region of the body is scored from 0 to 6. The total ppPASI score can range from a lower level of 0, corresponding to no signs of psoriasis, up to a maximum of 72. Week 16 to Week 52
Secondary Percentage of Participants With ppPASI 75 Response Over Time (Extension Period) A secondary endpoint was assessed as response rate of patients to treatment measured by the palmoplantar pustulosis Psoriasis Area and Severity Index 75 (ppPASI 75). The percentage of subjects who achieved a 75% reduction in ppPASI score from Baseline to each post-baseline visit was measured. The ppPASI is a modification of the PASI score and adjusted for palmoplantar pustular psoriasis by classifying and scoring erythema, scaling (desquamation) and pustules/vesicles. Both palms and both plants are scored from 0 to 4. The extent of involvement of each region of the body is scored from 0 to 6. The total ppPASI score can range from a lower level of 0, corresponding to no signs of psoriasis, up to a maximum of 72. Week 52 to Week 148
Secondary Percentage of Participants With Most Frequent Adverse Events - Period 1 (Patient's Safety) Most frequent (at least 5% in any of the AIN457 groups) Adverse Events Baseline to Week 16 (Period 1)
Secondary Percentage of Participants With Most Frequent Adverse Events - Period 2 (Patient's Safety) Most frequent (at least 5% in any of the AIN457 groups) Adverse Events Week 16 to Week 52 (Period 2)
Secondary Percentage of Participants With Most Frequent Adverse Events - Extension Period (Patient's Safety) Most frequent (at least 5% in any of the AIN457 groups) Adverse Events Week 52 to Week 148 (extension period)
