Brief summary
This was a multi-centre, randomized, investigator blinded, vehicle controlled trial using intra-individual comparison (right half-face versus left half-face). Participants with each half-face randomized to one of the two following treatments: * Adapalene 0.3 percent (%) - benzoyl peroxide (BPO) 2.5% gel (TactuPump® Forte). * Vehicle gel The main objective of this trial was to evaluate the effect of Adapalene 0.3% - BPO 2.5% (ABPO Forte) gel versus vehicle gel on the risk of formation of atrophic acne scars in moderate to severe acne participants.
Interventions
Participants applied Adapalene 0.3% - Benzoyl peroxide (BPO) 2.5% gel (ABPO Forte) topically to the affected areas once daily for 24 weeks in Part 1 and for 48 weeks in Part 2.
Participants applied placebo matched to ABPO Forte gel topically to the affected areas once daily for 24 weeks in Part 1 and 48 weeks in Part 2.

| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Part 1: Total Atrophic Acne Scar Count Per Half-face | Week 24 | The scars were counted according to their size defined in two categories using 2-millimeter (mm) and 4-mm punch biopsy tools for size classification: 1) atrophic scars 2 to 4 mm: included boxcar (sheer edges), rolling (irregular surface), and undetermined types; 2) atrophic scars greater than (\>) 4 mm: included boxcar (sheer edges), rolling (irregular surface), and undetermined types. Each type of atrophic acne scar was counted separately for each half-face by the evaluator for following regions: right forehead, right cheek, right side of the chin, left forehead, left cheek and left side of the chin. To obtain the total number of atrophic scars per half-face, atrophic acne scar counts for each half-face was added. |

Each type of atrophic acne scar was counted separately for each half-face by the evaluator for following regions: right forehead, right cheek, right side of the chin, left forehead, left cheek and left side of the chin. |
| Part 1 and Part 2: Investigator's Scar Global Assessment (ISGA) Score | Part 1: Weeks 1, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20 and 24; Part 2: Weeks 1, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 36 and 48 | ISGA was an assessment scale used to evaluate facial acne severity. ISGA was recorded using a 5-point scale ranges from 0 to 4, where (0 = clear \[No visible scars from acne); 1 = almost clear \[Hardly visible scars from 50 cm away\]; 2 = mild \[Easily recognizable; less than half the affected face area\]; 3 = moderate \[More than half and less than 75% of the affected face area\]; 4 = severe \[More than 75% of the affected face area\]) based on inflammation, pustules and papulation/infiltration. Higher score indicated severe acne. |
| Part 1: Percentage of Participants With Investigator's Preference on Overall Scar Severity | At Week 12 and Week 24 | The investigator rated their preference on a scale ranging from -2 (left side a lot better than right) to 2 (right side a lot better than left). Overall scar severity was assessed using a 5-point scale where (-2 = Left a lot better than right; -1 = Left a little bit better than right; 0 = No preference; 1 = Right a little bit better than left; 2 = Right a lot better than left. ABPO forte was applied on left side and vehicle gel was applied on right side. |

Participants by arm
| Arm | Count |
|---|---|
| All Participants Participants applied once-daily adapalene 0.3% - benzoyl peroxide (BPO) 2.5% (ABPO Forte) gel on half-face and ABPO Forte vehicle gel on the other side of the face based on randomization (right or left side of the face) at night for 24 weeks were enrolled in Part 1 of the study.

Part 1 and Part 2: Investigator's Scar Global Assessment (ISGA) Score
ISGA was an assessment scale used to evaluate facial acne severity. ISGA was recorded using a 5-point scale ranges from 0 to 4, where (0 = clear \[No visible scars from acne); 1 = almost clear \[Hardly visible scars from 50 cm away\]; 2 = mild \[Easily recognizable; less than half the affected face area\]; 3 = moderate \[More than half and less than 75% of the affected face area\]; 4 = severe \[More than 75% of the affected face area\]) based on inflammation, pustules and papulation/infiltration. Higher score indicated severe acne.
Time frame: Part 1: Weeks 1, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20 and 24; Part 2: Weeks 1, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 36 and 48

The scars were counted according to their size defined in two categories using 2 mm and 4 mm punch biopsy tools for size classification: 1) atrophic scars 2 to 4 mm: included boxcar (sheer edges), rolling (irregular surface), and undetermined types; 2) atrophic scars \> 4 mm: included boxcar (sheer edges), rolling (irregular surface), and undetermined types. Each type of atrophic acne scar was counted separately for each half-face by the evaluator for following regions: right forehead, right cheek, right side of the chin, left forehead, left cheek and left side of the chin.

Part 1 and Part 2: Total Atrophic Acne Scar Count Per Half-face at Each Post-baseline Visit
The scars were counted according to their size defined in two categories using 2 mm and 4 mm punch biopsy tools for size classification: 1) atrophic scars 2 to 4 mm: included boxcar (sheer edges), rolling (irregular surface), and undetermined types; 2) atrophic scars \> 4 mm: included boxcar (sheer edges), rolling (irregular surface), and undetermined types. Each type of atrophic acne scar was counted separately for each half-face by the evaluator for following regions: right forehead, right cheek, right side of the chin, left forehead, left cheek and left side of the chin. To obtain the total number of atrophic scars per half-face, atrophic acne scar counts for each half-face was added.
Time frame: Part 1: Weeks 1, 4, 8, 12, 16 and 20; Part 2: Weeks 1, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 36 and 48
Population: ITT population included entire population enrolled and randomized. Here, Number Analyzed signifies those participants who were evaluable for this outcome measure at specified time points.

Part 1: Percentage of Participants With Investigator's Preference on Overall Scar Severity
The investigator rated their preference on a scale ranging from -2 (left side a lot better than right) to 2 (right side a lot better than left). Overall scar severity was assessed using a 5-point scale where (-2 = Left a lot better than right; -1 = Left a little bit better than right; 0 = No preference; 1 = Right a little bit better than left; 2 = Right a lot better than left. ABPO forte was applied on left side and vehicle gel was applied on right side.
Time frame: At Week 12 and Week 24
Population: ITT population included entire population enrolled and randomized. Here, Overall Number of Participants Analyzed signifies those participants who were evaluable for this outcome measure and Number analyzed signifies those participants who were evaluable for this outcome measure at the specified time point.
