MeasureTime frameDescription
Change From Baseline in Children's Dermatology Life Quality Index (CDLQI) Score at Day 29Baseline (Day 1), Day 29The CDLQI was a 10-item questionnaire that measures the impact of skin disease on children's (aged 2-15 years) quality of life. Each question was evaluated on a 4-point scale ranging from 0 (not at all) to 3 (very much); where higher scores indicate more impact on quality of life. The CDLQI total score was the sum of individual scores of question 1-10 and ranges from 0 (not at all) to 30 (very much): 0-1 = no effect at all on the children's life; 2-6 = small effect on the children's life; 7-12 = moderate effect on the children's life; 13-18 = very large effect on the children's life; 19-30 = extremely large effect on the children's life. Higher scores indicate more impact on quality of life of children.
Time to Improvement in PruritusBaseline (Day 1) up to Day 29Time to improvement in pruritus was defined as the time interval between the administration of first dose of study drug till the first documentation of improvement in pruritus. Improvement in pruritus was defined as achieving none (0) or mild (1) score with at least a 1- grade improvement from baseline. Severity of pruritus was assessed on 4-point numeric scale ranges from 0 to 3, where 0= none (no itching), 1= mild (occasional, slight itching/scratching), 2= moderate (constant or intermittent itching/scratching which is not disturbing sleep) and 3= severe (bothersome itching/scratching which is disturbing sleep). Higher scores indicated more severe condition. It was analyzed using Kaplan-Meier method.
Change From Baseline in Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) Score at Day 29Baseline (Day 1), Day 29The DLQI was a 10-item questionnaire that measures the impact of skin disease on participant's quality of life. Each question was evaluated on a 4-point scale ranging from 0 (not at all) to 3 (very much); where higher scores indicate more impact on quality of life. The DLQI total score ranges from 0 (not at all) to 30 (very much): 0-1 = no effect at all on the participant's life; 2-6 = small effect on the participant's life; 7-12 = moderate effect on the participant's life; 13-18 = very large effect on the participant's life; 19-30 = extremely large effect on the participant's life. Higher scores indicate more impact on quality of life of participants.
Change From Baseline in Dermatitis Family Impact Questionnaire (DFI) Score at Day 29Baseline (Day 1), Day 29The DFI was a 10-item disease questionnaire that measures the impact of having a child with AD on family quality of life. It was completed by parent/legal guardian of the child (affected by AD), based on recall over the past week. Each question was scored on a 4-point scale ranging from 0 (good) to 3 (worst), where higher scores indicated worst quality of life of family. The DFI total score was the sum of individual scores of the 10 questions and ranges from 0 (good) to 30 (worst), where higher DFI scores indicated worst quality of life of family.

Percentage of Participants With an Investigator's Static Global Assessment (ISGA) Score of Clear (0) or Almost Clear (1) at Day 29

ISGA assessed the severity of AD (except scalp and venous access area) on a 5-point scale ranged from 0 (clear) to 4 (maximum severe), where higher scores indicate higher degree of AD. Grades for classification of severity: 0= clear (minor residual discoloration, no erythema or induration or papulation, no oozing or crusting), 1= almost clear (trace faint pink erythema, with barely perceptible induration or papulation and no oozing or crusting), 2= mild (faint pink erythema with mild induration or papulation and no oozing or crusting), 3= moderate (pink-red erythema with moderate induration or papulation with or without oozing or crusting) and 4= severe (deep or bright red erythema with severe induration or papulation and with oozing or crusting). Percentage of participants with an ISGA score of 0 or 1 were reported.

Time to Achieve Treatment Success Based on Investigator's Static Global Assessment (ISGA)

Time to achieve treatment success based on ISGA was defined as the time interval between the administrations of first dose of study drug until first documentation of success in ISGA. Success in ISGA was defined as an ISGA score of clear (0) or almost clear (1) with at least 2-grade improvement from baseline. It was analyzed using Kaplan-Meier method.

Change From Baseline in Children's Dermatology Life Quality Index (CDLQI) Score at Day 29

The CDLQI was a 10-item questionnaire that measures the impact of skin disease on children's (aged 2-15 years) quality of life. Each question was evaluated on a 4-point scale ranging from 0 (not at all) to 3 (very much); where higher scores indicate more impact on quality of life. The CDLQI total score was the sum of individual scores of question 1-10 and ranges from 0 (not at all) to 30 (very much): 0-1 = no effect at all on the children's life; 2-6 = small effect on the children's life; 7-12 = moderate effect on the children's life; 13-18 = very large effect on the children's life; 19-30 = extremely large effect on the children's life. Higher scores indicate more impact on quality of life of children.

Change From Baseline in Dermatitis Family Impact Questionnaire (DFI) Score at Day 29

The DFI was a 10-item disease questionnaire that measures the impact of having a child with AD on family quality of life. It was completed by parent/legal guardian of the child (affected by AD), based on recall over the past week. Each question was scored on a 4-point scale ranging from 0 (good) to 3 (worst), where higher scores indicated worst quality of life of family. The DFI total score was the sum of individual scores of the 10 questions and ranges from 0 (good) to 30 (worst), where higher DFI scores indicated worst quality of life of family.

Time to Improvement in Pruritus

Time to improvement in pruritus was defined as the time interval between the administration of first dose of study drug till the first documentation of improvement in pruritus. Improvement in pruritus was defined as achieving none (0) or mild (1) score with at least a 1- grade improvement from baseline. Severity of pruritus was assessed on 4-point numeric scale ranges from 0 to 3, where 0= none (no itching), 1= mild (occasional, slight itching/scratching), 2= moderate (constant or intermittent itching/scratching which is not disturbing sleep) and 3= severe (bothersome itching/scratching which is disturbing sleep). Higher scores indicated more severe condition. It was analyzed using Kaplan-Meier method.
