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

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryChange from baseline to Week 16 with respect to the weekly mean of the daily 24-hour Worst Itching Intensity Numeric Rating Scale (WI-NRS) score.Baseline, Week 16
Intensity of itch will be measured using an NRS used to indicate the intensity of the worst itching over the past 24 hours using a 0 to 10 numeric rating scale, where "0" represents "no itching" and "10" represents "worst itching imaginable".
SecondaryImprovement in itch-related quality of life as assessed by the change from baseline to Week 16 in total Skindex-10 Scale scoreBaseline, Week 16
The Skindex-10 Scale is a multidimensional questionnaire which assesses itch-related quality of life over the past week. The questions cover 3 domains: disease, mood/emotional distress, and social functioning domain. A lower total score represents better quality of life.
SecondaryImprovement in itch-related quality of life as assessed by the change from baseline to Week 16 in 5-D Itch Scale scoreBaseline, Week 16
The 5-D Itch Scale is a multidimensional questionnaire which assesses itch-related quality of life over the past 2 weeks. The questions cover five dimensions of itch including the degree, duration of itch/day, direction (improvement/worsening), disability (impact on activities such as work), and body distribution of itch. A lower total score represents better quality of life.
SecondaryReduction of itch intensity as assessed by the proportion of patients achieving an improvement from baseline ≥3 points with respect to the weekly mean of the daily 24-hour WI-NRS score at Week 16Week 16
Intensity of itch will be measured using an NRS used to indicate the intensity of the worst itching over the past 24 hours using a 0 to 10 numeric rating scale, where "0" represents "no itching" and "10" represents "worst itching imaginable".
