Registered outcomes1

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryChange From Baseline in a* and E at 8 Weeks8 weeks baseline
Change in a\* and ΔE is a way to quantify PWS treatment outcome: a\* is the erythema of the vascular lesions and varies from +60 for green to -60 for red with a value of +9.28 for Normal Skin. Higher a\* values indicates a greater reduction in erythema hence better treatment outcome. ΔE detects all three dimensions of colorspace (L\*a\*b\*) and represents the difference in color between normal and PWS skin. Range of ΔE is 0 to 100. Higher values indicates improved treatment efficacy by greater skin color improvement.
