Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Percentage of patients achieving Psoriasis Area Severity Index 75% response at observational point 2 | From Baseline up to Week 21 | The Psoriasis Area Severity Index (PASI75) response assessments are based on at least 75 % improvement in the PASI score from Baseline. The PASI score is a measure of the average redness, thickness, and scaliness of the psoriatic skin lesions with a score of 0 (clear) to 4 (very marked). |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Change from Baseline in Dermatology Life Quality Index score at observational point 2 | From Baseline up to Week 21 | The Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) consists of questions concerning patients' perception of the impact of skin diseases on different aspects of their health-related quality of life over the last week. The DLQI score ranges from 0 to 30 with higher scores indicating lower health-related quality of life (HRQoL). |
| Change from Baseline in Dermatology Life Quality Index score at observational point 4 | From Baseline up to Week 56 | The Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) consists of questions concerning patients' perception of the impact of skin diseases on different aspects of their health-related quality of life over the last week. The DLQI score ranges from 0 to 30 with higher scores indicating lower health-related quality of life (HRQoL). |
| Percentage of patients achieving Psoriasis Area Severity Index 75% response at observational point 4 | From Baseline up to Week 56 | The Psoriasis Area Severity Index (PASI75) response assessments are based on at least 75 % improvement in the PASI score from Baseline. The PASI score is a measure of the average redness, thickness, and scaliness of the psoriatic skin lesions with a score of 0 (clear) to 4 (very marked). |
| Percentage of patients achieving Psoriasis Area Severity Index 90% response at observational point 2 | From Baseline up to Week 21 | The Psoriasis Area Severity Index (PASI90) response assessments are based on at least 90 % improvement in the PASI score from Baseline. The PASI score is a measure of the average redness, thickness, and scaliness of the psoriatic skin lesions with a score of 0 (clear) to 4 (very marked). |
| Percentage of patients achieving Psoriasis Area Severity Index 90% response at observational point 4 | From Baseline up to Week 56 | The Psoriasis Area Severity Index (PASI90) response assessments are based on at least 90 % improvement in the PASI score from Baseline. The PASI score is a measure of the average redness, thickness, and scaliness of the psoriatic skin lesions with a score of 0 (clear) to 4 (very marked). |
