| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Percentage of Participants Achieving a ≥ 75% Improvement From Baseline in the Face Vitiligo Area Scoring Index (F-VASI75) Score at Week 24 | Baseline; Week 24 | An F-VASI75 responder achieved at least 75% improvement from Baseline in F-VASI, measured by the percentage of vitiligo involvement (percentage of body surface area \[BSA\]) and the degree of depigmentation: 0% (no depigmentation), 10% (only specks of depigmentation), 25% (pigmented area exceeded depigmented area), 50% (depigmented and pigmented area was equal), 75% (depigmented area exceeded pigmented area), 90% (specks of pigment), or 100% (no pigment). The percentage of BSA (hand unit) vitiligo involvement was estimated to the nearest 0.1% by the Investigator using the Palmar Method. The Investigator used his/her hand to mimic the participant's hand size to evaluate the percentage of BSA vitiligo involvement. F-VASI was then derived by multiplying the values assessed for the vitiligo involvement by the percentage of affected skin for each site on the face and summing the values of all sites (possible range: 0-3; lower scores indicate increased improvement). |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants Achieving a ≥ 50% Improvement From Baseline in the Face Vitiligo Area Scoring Index (F-VASI50) Score at Week 24 | Baseline; Week 24 | An F-VASI50 responder achieved at least 50% improvement from Baseline in F-VASI, measured by the percentage of vitiligo involvement (percentage of BSA) and the degree of depigmentation: 0% (no depigmentation), 10% (only specks of depigmentation), 25% (pigmented area exceeded depigmented area), 50% (depigmented and pigmented area was equal), 75% (depigmented area exceeded pigmented area), 90% (specks of pigment), or 100% (no pigment). The percentage of BSA (hand unit) vitiligo involvement was estimated to the nearest 0.1% by the Investigator using the Palmar Method. The Investigator used his/her hand to mimic the participant's hand size to evaluate the percentage of BSA vitiligo involvement. F-VASI was then derived by multiplying the values assessed for the vitiligo involvement by the percentage of affected skin for each site on the face and summing the values of all sites (possible range: 0-3; lower scores indicate increased improvement). |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants Achieving a ≥ 90% Improvement From Baseline in the Face Vitiligo Area Scoring Index (F-VASI90) Score at Week 24 | Baseline; Week 24 | An F-VASI90 responder achieved at least 90% improvement from Baseline in F-VASI, measured by the percentage of vitiligo involvement (percentage of BSA) and the degree of depigmentation: 0% (no depigmentation), 10% (only specks of depigmentation), 25% (pigmented area exceeded depigmented area), 50% (depigmented and pigmented area was equal), 75% (depigmented area exceeded pigmented area), 90% (specks of pigment), or 100% (no pigment). The percentage of BSA (hand unit) vitiligo involvement was estimated to the nearest 0.1% by the Investigator using the Palmar Method. The Investigator used his/her hand to mimic the participant's hand size to evaluate the percentage of BSA vitiligo involvement. F-VASI was then derived by multiplying the values assessed for the vitiligo involvement by the percentage of affected skin for each site on the face and summing the values of all sites (possible range: 0-3; lower scores indicate increased improvement). |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants Achieving a ≥ 50% Improvement From Baseline in the Total Body Vitiligo Area Scoring Index (T-VASI50) Score at Week 24 | Baseline; Week 24 | A T-VASI50 responder achieved at least 50% improvement from Baseline in T-VASI, calculated with contributions from 6 sites. The percentage of vitiligo involvement was estimated in hand units (percentage of BSA estimated to the nearest 0.1%) by the Investigator using the Palmar Method. The Investigator used his/her hand to mimic the participant's hand size to evaluate percent BSA vitiligo involvement. The degree of depigmentation for each site was estimated to the nearest percentage: 0% (no depigmentation present), 10% (only specks of depigmentation present), 25% (pigmented area exceeded depigmented area), 50% (depigmented and pigmented area was equal), 75% (depigmented area exceeded pigmented area), 90% (specks of pigment present), 100% (no pigment present). T-VASI was then derived by multiplying the values assessed for the vitiligo involvement by the percentage of affected skin for each site and summing the values (range: 0-100; lower scores indicate increased improvement). |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants Achieving a Vitiligo Noticeability Scale (VNS) of 4 or 5 at Week 24 | Baseline; Week 24 | The VNS is a patient-reported measure of vitiligo treatment success that is rated on a 5-point scale. The Baseline facial photograph was shown to the participants for reference, and a mirror was provided for the participants to assess the vitiligo on their face. The participant was asked to respond to the following query: Compared with before treatment, how noticeable is the vitiligo now? Responses: (1) more noticeable, (2) as noticeable, (3) slightly less noticeable, (4) a lot less noticeable, and (5) no longer noticeable. |
| Secondary | Percentage Change From Baseline in Facial Body Surface Area (F-BSA) at Week 24 | Baseline; Week 24 | F-BSA involvement was the proportion of the facial body surface area with vitiligo. The area "Face" was defined as including the area on the forehead to the original hairline, on the cheek to the jawline vertically to the jawline and laterally from the corner of the mouth to the tragus. The area "Face" did not include surface area of the lips, scalp, ears, or neck, but included the nose and eyelids. Body surface area assessment was performed by the Palmar Method. Body surface area was estimated to the nearest 0.1%. The approximate size of the participant's entire palmar surface (i.e., the palm plus 5 digits) was considered as 1% BSA, and the approximate size of the participant's thumb was considered as 0.1% BSA. Percentage change = (\[post-Baseline (BL) value minus BL value\]/BL value) X 100. |
| Secondary | Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) During the Double-Blind Period | from the time of Informed Consent Form signing until at least 30 days after the last application of study drug (up to Week 24) | An adverse event (AE) was defined as any untoward medical occurrence associated with the use of a drug in humans, whether or not considered drug-related. An AE could have been any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of study treatment. A TEAE was defined as any AE reported for the first time or the worsening of a pre-existing event after the first application of study drug. |
| Secondary | Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) During the Treatment-Extension Period | from the completion of the Week 24 assessments until at least 30 days after the last application of study drug (up to Week 52 + 30 days) | An AE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence associated with the use of a drug in humans, whether or not considered drug-related. An AE could have been any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of study treatment. A TEAE was defined as any AE reported for the first time or the worsening of a pre-existing event after the first application of study drug. |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants Achieving a ≥ 25% Improvement in the Face Vitiligo Area Scoring Index (F-VASI25) Score at Week 24 | Baseline; Week 24 | An F-VASI25 responder achieved at least 25% improvement from Baseline in F-VASI, measured by the percentage of vitiligo involvement (percentage of BSA) and the degree of depigmentation: 0% (no depigmentation), 10% (only specks of depigmentation), 25% (pigmented area exceeded depigmented area), 50% (depigmented and pigmented area was equal), 75% (depigmented area exceeded pigmented area), 90% (specks of pigment), or 100% (no pigment). The percentage of BSA (hand unit) vitiligo involvement was estimated to the nearest 0.1% by the Investigator using the Palmar Method. The Investigator used his/her hand to mimic the participant's hand size to evaluate the percentage of BSA vitiligo involvement. F-VASI was then derived by multiplying the values assessed for the vitiligo involvement by the percentage of affected skin for each site on the face and summing the values of all sites (possible range: 0-3; lower scores indicate increased improvement). |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants Achieving a ≥ %25, ≥ %50, ≥ 75%, and ≥ 90% Improvement in the Face Vitiligo Area Scoring Index (F-VASI25/50/75/90) Score at Week 52 | Baseline; Week 52 | An F-VASI25/50/75/90 responder achieved at least 25/50/75/90% improvement from Baseline in F-VASI, measured by the percentage of vitiligo involvement (percentage of BSA) and the degree of depigmentation: 0% (no depigmentation), 10% (only specks of depigmentation), 25% (pigmented area exceeded depigmented area), 50% (depigmented and pigmented area was equal), 75% (depigmented area exceeded pigmented area), 90% (specks of pigment), or 100% (no pigment). The percentage of BSA (hand unit) vitiligo involvement was estimated to the nearest 0.1% by the Investigator using the Palmar Method. The Investigator used his/her hand to mimic the participant's hand size to evaluate the percentage of BSA vitiligo involvement. F-VASI was then derived by multiplying the values assessed for the vitiligo involvement by the percentage of affected skin for each site on the face and summing the values of all sites (possible range: 0-3; lower scores indicate increased improvement). |
