Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
- Disease-specific outcomes following treatment with topical JAK inhibitors, as determined by disease-specific scoring systems (absolute and relative changes during treatment) over a maximum of 12 weeks - Granuloma Annulare Severity Index (GASI) - Cutaneous Sarcoidosis Activity and Morphology Instrument (CSAMI) - Necrobiosis Lipoidica Investigator Global Assessment (NL-IGA) and Necrobiosis Lipoidica Lesion Score (NLLS) - Proportion of responders (at least 50% improvement in the respective disease-specific score during treatment) vs. non-responders (less than 50% improvement in the respective disease-specific score during treatment and/or discontinuation or change of therapy due to lack of efficacy by the investigator and/or patient)

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
- Patient satisfaction following treatment with topical JAK inhibitors, as measured by the Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) - Occurrence of side effects - Duration of treatment or time until treatment change or escalation to systemic therapy
