ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryEfficacy: Percentage of Subjects With a ≥ 75% Decrease in PASI (PASI 75) at Week 16 (Double-blind Period)--LOCF and Observed16 weeks
The percentage of subjects who exhibited a 75% decrease or greater in the Psoriasis Area and Severity Index Score (PASI 75) whether they completed 16 weeks of treatment or not (last observation carried forward \[LOCF\]) and those who did complete 16 weeks of treatment (observed). \[PASI is a composite score based on the degree of effect on body surface area of psoriasis and the extension of erythema (reddening), induration (thickness), desquamation (scaling) of the lesions and area affected as observed on the day of examination. The severity of each sign is assessed using a 5-point scale, where 0=no symptoms, 1=slight, 2=moderate, 3=marked, 4=very marked. The PASI score ranges from 0 to 72, where 0 indicates no psoriasis and 72 indicates very severe psoriasis.\]
SecondaryEfficacy: Mean Change of Raw PASI Score From Baseline to Week 16 and Week 48--LOCF and Observed48 weeks
The mean change in the raw Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) score from baseline score to Week 16 and to Week 48 whether the subject completed 16 and 48 weeks, respectively (last observation carried forward \[LOCF\]), or for only those subjects who completed 16 and 48 weeks (observed), respectively. Negative values represent favorable results; positive values represent unfavorable results. \[The PASI is a composite score based on the degree of effect on body surface area of psoriasis and the extension of erythema (reddening), induration (thickness), desquamation (scaling) of the lesions and area affected as observed on the day of examination. The severity of each sign is assessed using a 5-point scale, where 0=no symptoms, 1=slight, 2=moderate, 3=marked, 4=very marked. The PASI score ranges from 0 to 72, where 0 indicates no psoriasis and 72 indicates very severe psoriasis.\]
SecondaryEfficacy: Percentage Change in Mean PASI Score From Baseline to Week 16 and to Week 48--LOCF and Observed48 weeks
The percentage (%) change in the mean Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) score from baseline ore to Week 16 and to Week 48 whether the subject completed 16 and 48 weeks, respectively (last observation carried forward \[LOCF\]) or for only those subjects who completed 16 and 48 weeks (observed), respectively. \[The PASI is a composite score based on the degree of effect on body surface area of psoriasis and the extension of erythema (reddening), induration (thickness), desquamation (scaling) of the lesions and area affected as observed on the day of examination. The severity of each sign is assessed using a 5-point scale, where 0=no symptoms, 1=slight, 2=moderate, 3=marked, 4=very marked. The PASI score ranges from 0 to 72, where 0 indicates no psoriasis and 72 indicates very severe psoriasis.\]
SecondaryEfficacy: Number of Subjects With Clear or Almost Clear PGA at Week 16--LOCF16 weeks
The number of subjects who had a "Clear" or "Almost Clear" assessment, using the Physician Global Assessment Scale (PGA), at Week 16 of all subjects whether they completed 16 weeks or not (last observation carried forward \[LOCF\]) \[The PGA documents the physician's assessment of the subject's psoriasis and was assessed relative to baseline conditions. The PGA rating is from 1-6, where 1 = 100% clearing of psoriasis (clear), 5 = 0 to 24% clearing (little or no change), and 6 = worse.\]
SecondaryEfficacy: Percentage of Subjects With Clear or Almost Clear PGA Comparing Belumosudil to Placebo at Week 16--LOCF16 weeks
The percentage (%) of subjects who had a "Clear" or "Almost Clear" assessment using the Physician Global Assessment Scale at Week 16 of belumosudil vs. placebo for all subjects whether they completed 16 weeks or not (last observation carried forward \[LOCF\]). \[The PGA documents the physician's assessment of the subject's psoriasis and was assessed relative to baseline conditions. The PGA rating is from 1-6, where 1 = 100% clearing of psoriasis (clear), 5 = 0 to 24% clearing (little or no change), and 6 = worse.\]
SecondaryEfficacy: Change in Mean DLQI Raw Score at Week 16 and at Week 48Up to 48 weeks
Changes in mean Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) score from baseline at Week 16 (End of Double-blind Period) and at Week 48 (End of Study Treatment). \[The DLQI is a skin disease-specific instrument designed to assess the impact of the disease on a subject's quality of life. DLQI scoring as measured on subject's life: 0-1 = no effect; 2-5 = small effect; 6-10 = moderate effect; 11 to 20 = very large effect; 21 to 30 = extremely large effect. Change \< 0% is improvement; \> 0% is worsening. The total rating ranges from 0 (no effect on a subject's life) to 30 (extremely large effect on a subject's life.\]
SecondaryEfficacy: Percentage Change of Mean DLQI Score From Baseline to Week 16 and Week 48Up to 48 weeks
Mean percentage changes in Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) from baseline at Week 16 (End of Double-blind Period) and at Week 48 (End of Study Treatment). \[The DLQI is a skin disease-specific instrument designed to assess the impact of the disease on a subject's quality of life. The rating ranges from 0 (no effect on a subject's life) to 30 (extremely large effect on a subject's life.\]
SecondarySafety: Number of Subjects With TEAEs, SAEs, and Deaths Throughout the StudyApproximately 52 weeks: up to 48 weeks of treatment and 30-day follow-up
The number of subjects who had treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs), severity of TEAEs, relationship of TEAEs to study medication, serious TEAEs (SAEs), dose interruption, discontinuations, and deaths. Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) are AEs that are not present before the first dose of IMP or that are present before the first dose of IMP but worsen in intensity during exposure to IMP. Severity: Grade 1 = mild; Grade 2 = moderate; Grade 3 = severe; Grade 4 = life-threatening; Grade 5 = Death. Related to study medication is defined as possible related, probable related, and related
