Registered outcomes4

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

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryResponse Rate During Randomized Phase40 weeks
Definition of Improvement (DOI) is ≥ 20% of improvement in any 3 of the core set measures (CSM) - Manual Muscle Testing, Patient Global , Physician Global, Muscle Enzyme change , HAQ and Extra- muscular activity and no more than 2 CSM worsening by ≥ 25% (excluding MMT). Total Improvement Score ( TIS) is a sum of weighted scores of absolute change of core set measures ( MMT, Patient Global , Physician Global, Muscle Enzyme change , HAQ and Extra-muscluar activity ). The scores range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating greater improvement. TIS ≥ 40 indicates a moderate response and ≥ 60 TIS indicates a major response.
PrimaryMean Total Improvement Score (TIS) During Randomized Phase40 Week
It is a composite measure calculated as a sum of weighted scores assigned to absolute changes for each measure (MMT , Patient Global, Physician Global, Muscle enzymes, Extramuscluar activity and HAQ) . Total score could range from 0 to 100. TIS ≥ 20 indicates minimal improvement, TIS ≥ 40 indicates moderate response and TIS ≥ 60 indicates a major response. 2016 ACR/EULAR Criteria for Minimal, Moderate, and Major Clinical Response in Adult Dermatomyositis and Polymyositis and Juvenile Dermatomyositis (Aggarwal R et al 2016)
SecondaryResponse Rate After Open Label Phase64 weeks
It is a composite measure calculated as a sum of weighted scores assigned to absolute changes for each measure (MMT , Patient Global, Physician Global, Muscle enzymes, Extramuscluar activity and HAQ) . Total score could range from 0 to 100. TIS ≥ 20 indicates minimal improvement, TIS ≥ 40 indicates moderate response and TIS ≥ 60 indicates a major response. 2016 ACR/EULAR Criteria for Minimal, Moderate, and Major Clinical Response in Adult Dermatomyositis and Polymyositis and Juvenile Dermatomyositis (Aggarwal R et al 2016)
SecondaryMean Total Improvement Score (TIS) After Open Label Phase64 Week
Definition of Improvement (DOI) is ≥ 20% of improvement in any 3 of the core set measures (CSM) - Manual Muscle Testing, Patient Global , Physician Global, Muscle Enzyme change , HAQ and Extra- muscular activity and no more than 2 CSM worsening by ≥ 25% (excluding MMT).
