ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryTime to Relapse (Defined as <F-VASI75)from Week 52 (first visit of this Treatment Extension study) to Week 104 (end of treatment in this Treatment Extension study)
Relapse was defined as a loss of 75% improvement from Baseline in the Face Vitiligo Area Scoring Index score (F-VASI75) response, assessed as percentage improvement in the F-VASI score at Baseline (Day 1 of the parent study) to \<75%.
SecondaryTime to Loss of Adequate Responsefrom Week 52 (first visit of this Treatment Extension study) to Week 104 (end of treatment in this Treatment Extension study)
Loss of adequate response was defined as a loss of 90% improvement from Baseline in the F-VASI score (F-VASI90) response, assessed as percentage improvement in the F-VASI score at Baseline (Day 1 of the parent study) to \<90%.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants Achieving a ≥50% Improvement From Baseline in the Face Vitiligo Area Scoring Index (F-VASI50) Score During the Extension Treatment Periodup to Week 104 of Treatment Extension (Week 52 was the first visit of this Treatment Extension study.)
An F-VASI50 responder achieved at least 50% 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).
SecondaryPercentage of Participants Achieving a ≥75% Improvement From Baseline in the F-VASI (F-VASI75) Score During the Extension Treatment Periodup to Week 104 of Treatment Extension (Week 52 was the first visit of this Treatment Extension study.)
An F-VASI75 responder achieved at least 75% 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).
SecondaryPercentage of Participants Achieving a ≥90% Improvement From Baseline in the F-VASI (F-VASI90) Score During the Extension Treatment Periodup to Week 104 of Treatment Extension (Week 52 was the first visit of this Treatment Extension study.)
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).
SecondaryMean F-VASI Scores During the Extension Treatment Periodup to Week 104 of Treatment Extension (Week 52 was the first visit of this Treatment Extension study.)
F-VASI was 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).
SecondaryChange From Baseline in F-VASI Scores During the Extension Treatment PeriodBaseline; up to Week 104 of Treatment Extension (Week 52 was the first visit of this Treatment Extension study.)
F-VASI was 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). Change from Baseline was calculated as the post-Baseline value minus the Baseline value.
SecondaryPercent Change From Baseline in F-VASI Scores During the Extension Treatment PeriodBaseline (BL); up to Week 104 of Treatment Extension (Week 52 was the first visit of this Treatment Extension study.)
F-VASI was 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). Percentage change = (\[post-BL value minus BL value\]/BL value) X 100.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants Achieving a ≥50% Improvement From Baseline in the Total Body Vitiligo Area Scoring Index (T-VASI50) Score During the Extension Treatment Periodup to Week 104 of Treatment Extension (Week 52 was the first visit of this Treatment Extension study.)
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 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).
