| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Percent of Subjects With Worst-Itch Numeric Rating Scale 4-point Responder at Week 10 | At Week 10 | During the study, Worst Itch Numeric Rating Scale (WI-NRS) assessments were reported by the subject via eDiary once daily from screening/mid-screening visit through the follow-up visit.
