ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryPercentage of Participants Achieving Psoriasis Area Severity Index (PASI) 90 (Defined as at Least 90% Improvement in PASI From Baseline) in Intent to Treat Population at Week 16 (ITT_A)Week 16
The PASI is used to evaluate a participant's overall psoriasis disease state that includes the percent of surface area of skin that is affected and the severity of erythema, induration, and desquamation over four body regions (head, upper extremities, trunk, and lower extremities). Scores range from 0 to 72, with higher scores indicating more severe disease.
PrimaryPercentage of Participants Achieving Static Physician Global Assessment (sPGA) 0 or 1 With at Least 2-grade Improvement From Baseline in Intent to Treat Population at Week 16 (ITT_A)Week 16The sPGA is the physician's current assessment of the average thickness, erythema, and scaling of all psoriatic lesions. Scores range from 0 (clear) to 4 (severe).
PrimaryPercentage of Participants Achieving PASI 90 in Intent to Treat Population for Apremilast Non-Responders at Week 52 (ITT_B_NR)Week 52
The PASI is used to evaluate a participant's overall psoriasis disease state that includes the percent of surface area of skin that is affected and the severity of erythema, induration, and desquamation over four body regions (head, upper extremities, trunk, and lower extremities). Scores range from 0 to 72, with higher scores indicating more severe disease.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants Achieving PASI 75 (Defined as at Least 75% Improvement in PASI From Baseline) in Intent to Treat Population at Week 16 (ITT_A)Week 16
The PASI is used to evaluate a participant's overall psoriasis disease state that includes the percent of surface area of skin that is affected and the severity of erythema, induration, and desquamation over four body regions (head, upper extremities, trunk, and lower extremities). Scores range from 0 to 72, with higher scores indicating more severe disease.
