Baseline to Day 84 (EOS)
Change from Baseline to EOS Day 84 of the Composite Score From the Children's Dermatology Life Quality Index (CDLQI) Assessment at the EOS Visit to Measure the Quality of Life and Impact of Skin Disease in the Subset of Subjects 4 -16 Years of Age. From responses to that questionnaire, a composite score was calculated. The calculated composite score was the sum of the individual 10 items of the CDLQI and could range from 0-30. For each item on the CDLQI, a score of 0-3 was assigned using the following scores per response: * 3: Very much (or Prevented School, Question 7 only) * 2: Quite a lot * 1: Only a little * 0: Not at all Larger composite CDLQI scores indicate skin condition is having more effect on subjects' lives (worse outcome).

OtherSubject Reported Spread to Household Members as Measured by Any New Occurrence of Molluscum in Household Members of Subject.Days 1, 21, 42, 63 and 84 (EOS).
Subject reported spread to household members as measured by any new occurrence of molluscum in household members of subject. To be eligible for assessment, subjects had to have at least one household member free of lesions at baseline and have at least 1 post baseline assessment of spread of molluscum lesions.
