ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryAchievement of Investigator Global Assessment (IGA) Success at Week 8Week 8
The number of participants achieving "success" in IGA assessment of disease severity at Week 8 is presented for each arm. Success was defined as achievement of an IGA score of 0 ('completely clear') or 1 ('almost clear'), accompanied by a ≥2-grade improvement from baseline IGA score. The IGA is 5-point scale assessing the severity of Seborrheic Dermatitis, with scores ranging from 0 ('completely clear') to 4 ('severe'), and higher scores indicate greater severity. The IGA scores are based on observed data, whereas odds ratio and p-values were calculated using multiple imputation of missing values.
SecondaryAchievement of IGA Success at Weeks 2 and 4Weeks 2 and 4
The number of participants achieving "success" in IGA assessment of disease severity at Weeks 2 and 4 is presented for each arm. Success was defined as achievement of an IGA score of 0 ('completely clear') or 1 ('almost clear'), accompanied by a ≥2-grade improvement from baseline IGA score. The IGA is 5-point scale assessing the severity of Seborrheic Dermatitis, with scores ranging from 0 ('completely clear') to 4 ('severe'), and higher scores indicate greater severity. The IGA scores are based on observed data, whereas odds ratio and p-values were calculated using multiple imputation of missing values.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Overall Assessment of Erythema ScoreWeeks 2, 4, and 8
The mean (SD) change from baseline in Overall Assessment of Erythema score at Weeks 2, 4, and 8 is shown. The Erythema Assessment is a simple, single-item scale to assess the subject-reported severity of this symptom, on a scale ranging from 0 ("None: no evidence of erythema.") to 3 ("Severe: Intense \[fiery red\] erythema."). Higher scores indicate greater severity.
SecondaryAchievement of Overall Assessment of Erythema SuccessWeeks 2, 4, and 8
The number of participants achieving "success" in Overall Assessment of Erythema at Weeks 2, 4, and 8 is presented for each arm. Success was defined as achievement of an overall score of 0 or 1 plus a ≥2 grade improvement from Baseline. The Overall Assessment of Erythema is a simple, single-item scale to assess the subject-reported severity of this symptom, on a scale ranging from 0 ("None: no evidence of erythema.") to 3 ("Severe: Intense \[fiery red\] erythema."). Higher scores indicate greater severity.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Overall Assessment of Scaling ScoreWeeks 2, 4, and 8
The mean (SD) change from baseline in Overall Assessment of Scaling score at Weeks 2, 4, and 8 is shown. The Overall Assessment of Scaling is a simple, single-item scale to assess the subject-reported severity of this symptom, on a scale ranging from 0 ("No scaling: No scaling evident on lesions.") to 3 ("Severe: Coarse, thick scales, with flaking into clothes or skin."). Higher scores indicate greater severity.
SecondaryAchievement of Overall Assessment of Scaling SuccessWeeks 2, 4, and 8
The number of participants achieving "success" in Overall Assessment of Scaling score at Weeks 2, 4, and 8 is presented for each arm. Success was defined as achievement of an Overall Assessment of Scaling score of 0 or 1 plus a ≥2 grade improvement from Baseline. The Overall Assessment of Scaling is a simple, single-item scale to assess the subject-reported severity of this symptom, on a scale ranging from 0 ("No scaling: No scaling evident on lesions.") to 3 ("Severe: Coarse, thick scales, with flaking into clothes or skin."). Higher scores indicate greater severity.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Worst Itch Numeric Rating Scale (WI-NRS) ScoreWeeks 2, 4, and 8
The change from baseline in WI-NRS is shown. The WI-NRS is a simple, single-item scale to assess the subject-reported severity of this symptom, on a scale ranging from 0 ("no itch") to 10 ("worst imaginable itch") the subject experienced in the previous 24 hours. Negative values represent a decrease in worst itch from baseline, and positive values indicate an increase.
SecondaryAchievement of WI-NRS SuccessWeeks 2, 4, and 8
The number of participants achieving WI-NRS "success" at Weeks 2, 4, and 8 is presented. Success was defined as achievement of a ≥4-point improvement from baseline WI-NRS score. The WI-NRS is a simple, single-item scale to assess the subject-reported severity of this symptom, on a scale ranging from 0 ("no itch") to 10 ("worst imaginable itch") the subject experienced in the previous 24 hours.
