What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Percentage of Participants Achieving Eczema Area and Severity Index-75 (EASI-75) Response at Week 16

    Percentage of participants achieving EASI-75 at Week 16 were reported. EASI-75 response was defined as at least 75% improvement from baseline in EASI total score. The EASI score was used to measure the severity and extent of atopic dermatitis (AD) and measures erythema, infiltration/papulation, excoriation and lichenification on 4 anatomic regions of the body: head/neck, trunk, upper and lower extremities. The severity of the clinical signs of AD for each of 4 body regions was scored on a 4-point scale: 0=absent, 1=mild, 2=moderate and 3=severe. The total EASI score is the sum of four body-region scores ranged from 0 (minimum) to 72 (maximum) points, with the higher scores reflecting the worse severity of AD. This outcome measure was planned to be analyzed for specified arms only.

    Measured: Week 16

Secondary outcomes (13)

  1. Percentage of Participants Achieving >=4 Point Improvement (Reduction From Baseline) in Weekly Average Peak (Worst) Daily Pruritus (Itch) Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) Score From Baseline at Week 4, 8, 12, 16 and 32 Among Participants With Baseline Score >=4

    Percentage of participants achieving greater than or equal to (>=4) point improvement (reduction from baseline) in weekly average peak (worst) daily pruritus NRS score from baseline at Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16 and 32 among participants with a baseline score >=4 were reported. The eczema skin pain and itch NRS is a 2-item patient-reported outcome that participants used to rate the severity of their eczema-related skin pain and eczema related itch daily. To rate the severity of eczema-related itch participants were asked the following question: please rate the severity of your eczema-related itch at its worst in the past 24 hours. The response was rated on a 0 to 10 NRS ranging from 0 "none" to 10 "worst possible". Higher score indicated more severity. Seven daily average NRS scores are into a weekly score.

    Measured: Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16 and 32

Higher score indicated more severity. Seven daily averaged NRS scores were averaged into a weekly score.

    Measured: Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16 and 32

  5. Percentage of Participants Achieving EASI-75 Response at Weeks 4, 8, 12, and 32

    Percentage of participants achieving EASI-75 response at Weeks 4, 8, 12, and 32 were reported. EASI-75 response was defined as at least 75% improvement from baseline in EASI total score. The EASI score was used to measure the severity and extent of AD and measures erythema, infiltration/papulation, excoriation and lichenification on 4 anatomic regions of the body: head/neck, trunk, upper and lower extremities. The severity of the clinical signs of AD for each of 4 body regions was scored on a 4-point scale: 0=absent, 1=mild, 2=moderate and 3=severe. The total EASI score is the sum of four body-region scores ranged from 0 (minimum) to 72 (maximum) points, with the higher scores reflecting the worse severity of AD.

    Measured: Weeks 4, 8, 12, and 32

  6. Percentage of Participants With an Investigators Global Assessment (IGA) Score of 0 or 1 and a Reduction From Baseline of >=2 Points at Week 16

    Percentage of participants with both IGA score of 0 or 1 and a reduction from baseline of >=2 points was reported. IGA assesses AD severity and clinical response using a 5-point scale: 0 = clear, 1= almost clear, 2 = mild, 3 = moderate, 4 = severe. A higher score indicated more severity of AD. The score was determined by ranking the extent of erythema and population/infiltration. A clinical response to therapy was an IGA score of 0 (clear) or 1 (almost clear). This outcome measure was planned to be analyzed for specified arms only.

    Measured: Week 16

  7. Percentage of Participants Achieving EASI-90 Response at Weeks 12, 16, and 32

    Percentage of participants achieving EASI-90 response at Weeks 12, 16 and 32 were reported. EASI-90 response was defined as at least 90% improvement from baseline in EASI total score. The EASI score was used to measure the severity and extent of atopic dermatitis (AD) and measures erythema, infiltration/papulation, excoriation and lichenification on 4 anatomic regions of the body: head/neck, trunk, upper and lower extremities. The severity of the clinical signs of AD for each of 4 body regions was scored on a 4-point scale: 0=absent, 1=mild, 2=moderate and 3=severe. The total EASI score is the sum of four body-region scores ranged from 0 (minimum) to 72 (maximum) points, with the higher scores reflecting the worse severity of AD.

    Measured: Weeks 12, 16, and 32

  8. Change From Baseline in Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) at Weeks 8, 12, 16, and 32

    The DLQI is a 10-item, validated questionnaire used in clinical practice and clinical trials to assess the impact of AD disease symptoms and treatment on quality of life (QOL). The format is a simple response (0 to 3 where 0 is "not at all" and 3 is "very much") to 10 questions, which assess QOL over the past week, with an overall scoring system of 0 to 30. The DLQI is calculated by summing the score of each question resulting in a maximum of 30 and a minimum of 0. A higher score indicates more severe disease and poor QoL.

    Measured: Baseline, Weeks 8, 12, 16 and 32

  9. Change From Baseline in Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) (Anxiety) Score at Weeks 8, 12, 16, and 32

    In this outcome measure, change from baseline in HADS-Anxiety score at weeks 8, 12, 16 and 32 were reported. The HADS is an instrument for screening anxiety and depression in non-psychiatric populations; repeated administration also provides information about changes to a participant's emotional state. The HADS is a 14-item self-administered questionnaire, 7 each for anxiety and depression symptoms. Each item is scored from 0-3, resulting in total anxiety score ranging from 0 (less severity of anxiety) to 21 (greater severity of anxiety). Higher score indicated more anxiety symptoms. The following cut-off scores are recommended: 7 to 8 for possible presence, 10 to 11 for probable presence, and 14 to 15 for severe anxiety.

    Measured: Baseline, Weeks 8,12,16 and 32

  10. Change From Baseline in HADS (Depression) Score at Weeks 8, 12, 16, and 32

    In this outcome measure, change from baseline in HADS-depression score at weeks 8, 12, 16 and 32 were reported. The HADS is an instrument for screening anxiety and depression in non-psychiatric populations; repeated administration also provides information about changes to a participant's emotional state. The HADS is a 14-item self-administered questionnaire, and consists of 7 items each for anxiety and depression symptoms. Each item is scored from 0-3, resulting in total depression score ranging from 0 (less severity of depression) to 21 (greater severity of depression). Higher score indicated more depression symptoms. The following cut-off scores are recommended: 7 to 8 for possible presence, 10 to 11 for probable presence, and 14 to 15 for severe depression.

    Measured: Baseline, Weeks 8,12,16 and 32

  11. Change From Baseline in Patient Oriented Eczema Measure (POEM) Scores at Weeks 8, 12, 16, and 32

    The POEM is a 7-item, validated questionnaire used to assess disease symptoms in both children and adults. Participants respond to 7 questions, including dryness, itching, flaking, cracking, sleep loss, bleeding, and weeping, each scored on a 5-point scale based on frequency of occurrence during the previous week: 0 = no days, 1 = 1 to 2 days, 2 = 3 to 4 days, 3 = 5 to 6 days, and 4 = all days. Item scores are added to provide a total score ranging from 0 (clear) to 28 (very severe atopic eczema). Higher scores indicated more severe disease and poor quality of life.

    Measured: Baseline, Weeks 8, 12, 16, and 32

  12. Change From Baseline in SCORing Atopic Dermatitis (SCORAD) Total Score at Weeks 8, 12, 16, and 32.

    SCORAD is a validated scoring index for AD, which consists of 3 components that is A =extent or affected body surface area assessed as percentage of each defined body area and reported as the sum of all areas, with a maximum score of 100%. B=severity of 6 specific symptoms of AD (redness, swelling, oozing/crusting, excoriation, skin thickening/lichenification, dryness) assessed using the following scale: none (0), mild (1), moderate (2), or severe (3) (for a maximum of 18 total points) and C=subjective symptoms scored by participants on visual analogue scale, where "0" is no itch (or no sleeplessness) and "10" is worst imaginable itch (or sleeplessness) with a maximum score of 20. SCORAD total score was calculated using these 3 aspects: extent (A: 0-100), severity (B: 0-18), and subjective symptoms (C: 0-20) using the formula: A/5 + 7*B/2+ C to give the SCORAD total score range of 0 to 103, where 0 = no disease to 103 = severe disease. Higher values of SCORAD represent worse outcome.

    Measured: Baseline to Weeks 8, 12, 16 and 32

  13. Change From Baseline in Global Individual Signs Score (GISS) at Weeks 8, 12, 16, and 32.

    GISS assesses AD lesions for erythema, excoriations, lichenification and edema/papulation. Each component was rated on a global basis (over the entire body surface rather than region) using a 4-point scale (0=none, 1=mild, 2=moderate and 3=severe) according to the EASI grading severity. The cumulative score, which ranges from 0 to 12, is the sum of the four components. A higher score indicates more severe disease.

    Measured: Baseline, Weeks 8,12,16 and 32
