ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimarySummary Statistics and Primary Pairwise Comparison (Vehicle-E6201) of Area Under the Curve (AUC) for the Baseline-Corrected Thickness of the Psoriatic InfiltrateDay 0 (Baseline), Day 8 (Visit 10), and Day 12 (End of Treatment)
The AUC was based on the baseline-corrected thickness of the psoriatic infiltrate (20 megahertz (MHz) Sonographic measurement) at specified days for each treatment field calculated by applying the linear trapezoidal rule. Sonographic measurements were performed using a 20 MHz high-frequency sonograph. Serial A-scans were composed and represented on a monitor as a section of the skin. A lateral resolution of approximately 200 um and an axial resolution of 80 um were possible. Dependent on the echo patterns, components of the epidermis, dermis, and subcutis were represented. Therefore, exact measurement of skin thickness was possible. The inflammatory psoriatic infiltrate was seen as a clearly definable echo lucent band below the entrance echo. The thickness of the echo lucent psoriatic band was determined. The thickness was measured in micrometers (um) and was denoted as T.
SecondaryChange in Thickness of the Psoriatic Infiltrate From Baseline to End of Treatment (Day 12/Discontinuation)Day 12/Discontinuation (Visit 14/End of Treatment)
Psoriatic infiltrate thickness was determined by 20 MHz Sonographic measurements using a 20 MHz high-frequency sonograph. Serial-A scans were composed and represented on a monitor as a section of the skin. A lateral resolution of approximately 200 um and an axial resolution of 80 um were possible. Dependent on the echo patterns, components of the epidermis, dermis, and subcutis were represented. Therefore exact measurement of the skin thickness was possible. The inflammatory psoriatic infiltrate was seen as a clearly definable echo lucent back below the entrance echo. The thickness of the echo lucent psoriatic band was determined. Comparisons were made with the untreated plaque(s) beneath the hydrocolloid dressing. Baseline was defined as Visit 2 (Day 0). Least Squares Means (LSM) and Confidence Intervals (CI) were obtained from ANCOVA model with factors for treatment and baseline psoriatic infiltrate thickness as a continuous covariate.
SecondaryChange in Thickness of the Psoriatic Infiltrate From Baseline to Day 8Day 8 (Visit 10)
Psoriatic infiltrate thickness was determined by 20 MHz Sonographic measurements using a 20 MHz high-frequency sonograph. Serial-A scans were composed and represented on a monitor as a section of the skin. A lateral resolution of approximately 200 um and an axial resolution of 80 um were possible. Dependent on the echo patterns, components of the epidermis, dermis, and subcutis were represented. Therefore exact measurement of the skin thickness was possible. The inflammatory psoriatic infiltrate was seen as a clearly definable echo lucent back below the entrance echo. The thickness of the echo lucent psoriatic band was determined. Comparisons were made with the untreated plaque(s) beneath the hydrocolloid dressing. Baseline was defined as Visit 2 (Day 0). LSM and CI were obtained from ANCOVA model with factors for treatment and baseline psoriatic infiltrate thickness as a continuous covariate.
SecondaryClinical (Global) Assessment of Efficacy at Day 12/DiscontinuationDay 12/Discontinuation (Visit 14/End of Treatment)
Clinical (global) assessment of the test fields was performed using a 5-point score: -1 = worsened, 0 = unchanged (no effect), 1 = slight improvement, 2 = clear improvement but not completely healed, and 3 = completely healed. Comparisons were made with the untreated plaque(s) beneath the hydrocolloid dressing. Clinically apparent differences in erythema and infiltration contributed to the global assessment. Baseline was defined as Visit 2 (Day 0).
SecondaryClinical (Global) Assessment of Efficacy on Day 8Day 8 (Visit 10)
Clinical (global) assessment of the test fields was performed using a 5-point score: -1 = worsened, 0 = unchanged (no effect), 1 = slight improvement, 2 = clear improvement but not completely healed, and 3 = completely healed. Comparisons were made with the untreated plaque(s) beneath the hydrocolloid dressing. Clinically apparent differences in erythema and infiltration contributed to the global assessment. Baseline was defined as Visit 2 (Day 0).
SecondaryOverview of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)From first dose of study treatment up to 30 days after the last dose, or until resolution, whichever came first, or up to approximately 10 months.
TEAEs were defined as an adverse event (AE) that emerged during treatment, having been absent at pretreatment (baseline), or re-emerged during treatment, having been present at baseline but stopped prior to treatment, or worsened in severity during treatment relative to the pretreatment state, when the AE was continuous. Safety variables included TEAEs including skin reactions, diascopy and biopsy findings, clinical laboratory parameters, vital signs, and physical examinations. For Cohort 2, special attention was given to a close, daily monitoring of the application site for signs of skin irritation. Any suspected ecchymoses or petechiae were to be followed up with a diascopy test that was to be documented with digital photographs. Any positive diascopy test was to be followed up by biopsy for skin ultrastructural analysis (if agreed to by the participant, sponsor, and investigator). Few adverse events occurred in more than one treatment group.
