ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryChange From Baseline in Cutaneous Dermatomyositis Disease Area and Severity Index (CDASI) Activity Score at Week 12 (Stage 1, Stage 2 and Amended Stage 2)Baseline and Week 12
The treatment effect was defined as the difference (mean chg from baseline at Week12 in the active treatment group minus that in the placebo group) in the mean change of CDASI activity score from baseline at Week 12. The score (range: 0-100) consists of the extent score (ES), Gottorn hands score (GHS), peringual score (PS) and allopecia score (AS). ES (range: 0-90) was obtained by summing up scores for the total erythema (ER \[0-45\], redness of the skin or mucous membranes), scaling (SC \[0-30\], peeling of the skin) and erosion/ulceration (EU \[0-15\], presence of the deeper wound). Total ER, SC and EU scores were calculated as a sum of the contributions from 15 individual areas of the body. GHS characterizes papules (swellings) on hand and is a sum of the papule's characterization score (0-6) and ulceration score (0-1). PS (0-2) characterizes abnormalities around nails. The AS (0-1) characterizes hair loss. Higher scores indicate greater disease severity.
PrimaryNumber of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAE) (Stage 3)Up to Week 40
Adverse event (AE) was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention. SAE was any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose resulted in any of following outcomes/deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial /prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening; persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly/birth defect and suspected transmission via a Pfizer product of an infectious agent, pathogenic or non-pathogenic. AEs included both serious (if occurred) and all non-serious adverse events. TEAEs are events between first dose of study drug and up to Week 40 that were absent before treatment or that worsened relative to pretreatment state.

AEs included both serious (if occurred) and all non-serious adverse events.
