ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryPercentage of Participants With Psoriasis Area Sensitivity Index 75 (PASI-75) Response at Week 12 (Base Study)Week 12 (or end of trial if prior to Week 12)
The PASI is a measure of the average redness, thickness, and scaliness of lesions (each graded on a 0-4 scale), weighed by the amount of body surface for each region involved (head=0.1; upper limbs=0.2; trunk= 0.3; and lower limbs=0.4) and the degree of involvement for each body region (0=no involvement to 6=90-100% involvement). Calculated PASI score ranges from 0 to 72, with higher score indicating more severe disease status. The PASI-75 response indicates the number of participants achieving a 75% reduction in PASI score compared to baseline.
PrimaryPercentage of Participants With a Physician's Global Assessment (PGA) Score of Clear or Minimal With at Least a 2 Grade Reduction From Baseline at Week 12 (Base Study)Baseline and Week 12 (or end of trial if prior to Week 12)
The PGA is used to determine the overall severity of a participant's psoriasis lesions at a given time point. Overall lesions will be graded for thickness, erythema, and scaling on a scale from 0 to 5. The sum of the 3 scales will be divided by 3 to obtain the PGA score. PGA is assessed as: 0= Cleared, except for residual discoloration. 1= Minimal, majority of lesions have individual scores that average 1. 2 =Mild, majority of lesions have individual scores that average 2. 3= Moderate, majority of lesions have individual scores that average 3. 4= Marked, majority of lesions have individual scores that average 4. 5= Severe, majority of lesions have individual scores that average 5.
PrimaryNumber of Participants Experiencing an Adverse Event Up to Week 12 (Base Study)Up to 12 weeks
An adverse event is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant or clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment.
PrimaryNumber of Participants Discontinuing Study Drug Due to an Adverse Event Up to Week 12 (Base Study)Up to 12 weeks
An adverse event is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant or clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment.
PrimaryNumber of Participants Discontinuing Study Drug Due to a Drug-Related Adverse Event (Base Study)Up to 12 weeksA drug-related adverse event is an adverse event that has been determined by the investigator to be related to the study drug.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With PASI-90 Response At Week 12Week 12 (or end of trial if prior to Week 12)
The PASI is a measure of the average redness, thickness, and scaliness of lesions (each graded on a 0-4 scale), weighed by the amount of body surface for each region involved (head=0.1; upper limbs=0.2; trunk= 0.3; and lower limbs=0.4) and the degree of involvement for each body region (0=no involvement to 6=90-100% involvement). Calculated PASI score ranges from 0 to 72, with higher score indicating more severe disease status. The PASI-90 response indicates the number of participants achieving a 90% reduction in PASI score compared to baseline.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With PASI-100 Response at Week 12Week 12 (or end of trial if prior to Week 12)
The PASI is a measure of the average redness, thickness, and scaliness of lesions (each graded on a 0-4 scale), weighed by the amount of body surface for each region involved (head=0.1; upper limbs=0.2; trunk= 0.3; and lower limbs=0.4) and the degree of involvement for each body region (0=no involvement to 6=90-100% involvement). Calculated PASI score ranges from 0 to 72, with higher score indicating more severe disease status. The PASI-100 response indicates the number of participants achieving a 100% reduction in PASI score compared to baseline.
SecondaryBaseline Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) ScoreBaseline
The DLQI questionnaire consists of 10 questions, where each question is scored from 0 (not affected at all) to 3 (very much affected). The DLQI score is the sum of the 10 individual question scores and ranges from 0 to 30, with lower scores indicating better quality of life.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in the Participant DLQI Score at Week 12Baseline and Week 12 (or end of trial if prior to Week 12)
The DLQI questionnaire consists of 10 questions, where each question is scored from 0 (not affected at all) to 3 (very much affected). The DLQI score is the sum of the 10 individual question scores and ranges from 0 to 30, with lower scores indicating better quality of life. For a change from baseline, a larger negative number correlates with a greater improvement in the DLQI score.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With DLQI Score of 0 or 1 at Week 12Week 12 (or end of trial if prior to Week 12)
The DLQI questionnaire consists of 10 questions, where each question is scored from 0 (not affected at all) to 3 (very much affected). The DLQI score is the sum of the 10 individual question scores and ranges from 0 to 30, with lower scores indicating better quality of life.
