Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Post Treatment Serum Cortisol Values Will be Compared.Up to 29 days of treatmentThe primary safety parameter was the response to the CST at the end of treatment/final visit. Blood samples were collected prior to injection of cosyntropin and post-injection. Post-CST stimulation cortisol level ≤ 18micrograms/dL was considered as evidence of adrenal suppression.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Record Skin Atrophy, Pigmentation Change, Hematological and Chemistry Assessments, and Changes in Atopic Dermatitis SeverityOver 5-6 visits following the baseline visit through the end of treatment between Day 22-29The frequency distributions of the presence/absence of adverse events associated with signs of atrophy and pigmentation changes were summarized with frequency counts. Hematology and Chemistry Assessments were summarized in shift tables. Signs and symptoms of AD were summarized at each visit.
