Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Moderate change in Total Improvement Score (TIS) [Time Frame: 24 weeks outside of the United States (US) and 52 weeks in the US] Total Improvement Score 0 to 100 with higher scores indicating a better outcome.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary Outcome Measures : 1.Change from baseline in Manual Muscle Testing - 8 designated muscles (MMT-8) [ Time Frame: 24 weeks outside of the US and 52 weeks in the US ] Manual Muscle Testing (8 designated muscles) 0 to 150 with higher scores indicating a better outcome 2.Change from baseline in Cutaneous Dermatomyositis Disease Area and Severity Index Activity Score (CDASI-A) in participants with dermatomyositis (DM) [ Time Frame: Week 24 outside the US ] Cutaneous Dermatomyositis Disease Area and Severity Index Activity Score 0 to 100 with higher scores indicating a worse outcome. Only participants with baseline CDASI-A score >14 will be assessed. 3.Change from baseline in Investigator Global Assessment severity scale (IGA) in participants with dermatomyositis [ Time Frame: 24 and 52 weeks in the US only ] Investigator Global Assessment severity scale 0 to 4 with higher scores indicating a worse outcome. Only participants with baseline IGA >=2 will be assessed 4.Corticosteroid (CS) dose assessment [ Time Frame: 52 weeks ] Normalized Area Under the Curve (AUC) of corticosteroid dose 5.Moderate change in Total Improvement Score [ Time Frame: 24 weeks in the US and 52 weeks outside of the US ] Total Improvement Score 0 to 100 with higher scores indicating a better outcome. 6.Change from baseline in Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System - Physical Function (PROMIS-PF) [ Time Frame: 24 weeks outside of the US and 52 weeks in the US ] Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System - Physical Function 0 to 100 with higher scores indicating a better outcome 7.Change from baseline in 5-D Itch Scale Score [ Time Frame: 24 weeks outside of the US and 52 weeks in the US ] 5-D Pruritis Scale 5 to 25 with higher scores indicating a worse outcome. Only participants with baseline CDASI-A score >14 will be assessed. 8.Change from baseline in Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy - Fatigue (FACIT-F) [ Time Frame: 24 weeks outside
