PrimaryChange From Baseline in Mean Dysphagia Days (DD) at Week 24Baseline (Day 1) and Week 24
Dysphagia Days (DD) was assessed using a modified daily symptom diary (mDSD). The DD was evaluated over the prior 14-day period using the mDSD, which includes 6 primary questions. These questions assess solid food consumption that day (Q1), experience with trouble swallowing (Q2), food going down slowly (Q3), food getting stuck in the throat or chest (Q4), actions taken by participants to obtain relief (Q5), and any pain associated with swallowing (Q6). The number of DD was normalized by calculating the number of diary days with a "yes" to any or all of Q2, Q3, and Q4 in the 14-day period prior to a visit, dividing by the number of measurable diary days in the 14-day period, and then multiplying by the length of the period (14). A measurable diary day for DD is defined as a diary day for which Questions 2 to 4 are answered. Mean DD ranges from 0 to 14 for the 14-day period.
PrimaryPercentage of Participants With Peak Esophageal Eosinophil Count <= 6/High-power Field (Hpf) at Week 24Week 24Blood samples were collected to assess esophageal eosinophil count.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Peak Esophageal Eosinophil Count <= 6/High-power Field (Hpf) at Week 48Week 48Blood samples were collected to assess esophageal eosinophil count.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Peak Esophageal Eosinophil Count < 15/High-power Field (Hpf) at Week 24Week 24Blood samples were collected to assess esophageal eosinophil count.

SecondaryChange From Baseline in Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE) Endoscopic Reference Score (EREFS) at Week 24Baseline (Day 1) , Week 24
The EREFS, measures features of EoE including esophageal edema, fixed rings, exudates, furrows, and strictures. The instrument grades edema as none (0) or present (1) or severe; furrows as absent (0), present (1); rings as none (0), mild (1), moderate (2) and severe (3); exudates as none (0), mild (1) or severe (2); and strictures as absent (0) or present (1). Two sub-component scores will be calculated by adding up the grade from respective features across the 3 esophagus levels (proximal, mid, and distal). Inflammation composite score (ranging 0 to 12) includes edema, furrows and exudates while remodeling composite score (0 to 12) consist of stricture and fixed rings. The EREFS total score is the sum of the inflammation and remodeling composite scores. The EREFS total score ranges from 0 to 24. High score signifies severe condition.

The instrument grades edema as none (0) or present (1) or severe; furrows as absent (0), present (1); rings as none (0), mild (1), moderate (2) and severe (3); exudates as none (0), mild (1) or severe (2); and strictures as absent (0) or present (1).

The EREFS total score is the sum of the inflammation and remodeling composite scores. The EREFS total score ranges from 0 to 24. High score signifies severe condition.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Mean Adjusted Eosinophilic Esophagitis Histology Scoring System (EoEHSS) Grade Score at Week 24Baseline (Day 1), Week 24
EoEHSS evaluates the grade (severity) of multiple pathologic features in esophageal biopsies. It has 8 features eosinophil inflammation, basal zone hyperplasia, eosinophil abscess, eosinophil surface layering, dilated intercellular spaces, surface epithelial alteration, dyskeratotic epithelial cells, and lamina propria fibrosis. In 3 separate esophagus levels (proximal, mid, and distal), each feature is scored independently for grade using a 4-point Likert scale (0 \[absent\] to 3 \[severe\]). The mean adjusted grade score is calculated by averaging the adjusted scores for the 3 levels (proximal, mid, and distal). The mean adjusted scores range from 0 to 100. High score signifies severe condition.
