Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Cohort 2: Change From Baseline in Hand Eczema Severity Index (HECSI) Score | Weeks 2, 4, 8, and 12 | The HECSI is an instrument used in clinical trials to rate the severity of 6 clinical signs (erythema, infiltration/papulation, vesicles, fissures, scaling, and oedema) on 5 areas of the hand (fingertips, fingers \[except tips\], palm, back of hand, wrists) by use of a standard scale. Each subscale is scored from 0 to 60; the total HECSI score ranges from 0 to 360 with higher scores indicating greater symptom severity. The mean change from baseline in HECSI is reported. |
| Cohort 2: Change From Baseline in Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) for Pain Score | Weeks 2, 4, 8, and 12 | The NRS Pain Scale is a widely-used instrument for pain screening. Participants rate the intensity of pain experienced in the past 24 hours on a scale from 0 ('no pain at all') to 10 ('worst pain possible'). The mean change from baseline NRS Pain score is reported. |
| Cohort 2: Achievement of IGA Score of 'Clear' or 'Almost Clear' PLUS at Least a 2-point Improvement From Baseline | Weeks 2, 4, 8 and 12 | The IGA is 5-point scale assessing the severity of hand eczema, with scores ranging from 0 ('completely clear') to 4 ('severe'), with higher scores indicating greater severity. The number of participants with an IGA score of 'clear' or 'almost clear' plus ≥2-point improvement (ie, decrease) from Baseline is presented. |
| Cohort 2: Change From Baseline in Overall Quality of Life in Hand Eczema Questionnaire (QOLHEQ) Score at Each Visit | Weeks 2, 4, 8, 12, 13 | The QOLHEQ is an instrument to assess disease specific Health Related Quality of Life (HRQOL) in patients suffering from hand eczema. The QOLHEQ is a disease specific instrument, thereby only assessing impairments caused by hand eczema. It consists of 30 items which can be summarized according to four domains of HRQOL: Impairments because of (1) symptoms, (2) emotions, (3) limitations in functioning or (4) because of treatment and prevention. The scoring ranges from 0 ('no eczema') to 117 ('most severe eczema'). |
| Cohort 2: Change From Baseline in Total Body Surface Area (BSA) Affected by Disease | Weeks 2, 4, 8, 12 | The percentage of total body surface area (BSA) affected by chronic hand eczema (CHE) is a measure of the area of the subject's hands that is affected by CHE lesions, expressed as a percentage of total BSA. Based on the subject's hand method, the BSA of 1 side of 1 hand is assumed to be 1% of total BSA. The surface area of lesions on both sides of both hands are added to calculate the total BSA affected by CHE. The total BSA affected by CHE ranges from 0% (no CHE lesions) to 4% (the entire front and back sides of both hands are affected by CHE lesions). |

Cohort 2: Change From Baseline in Total Body Surface Area (BSA) Affected by Disease
The percentage of total body surface area (BSA) affected by chronic hand eczema (CHE) is a measure of the area of the subject's hands that is affected by CHE lesions, expressed as a percentage of total BSA. Based on the subject's hand method, the BSA of 1 side of 1 hand is assumed to be 1% of total BSA. The surface area of lesions on both sides of both hands are added to calculate the total BSA affected by CHE. The total BSA affected by CHE ranges from 0% (no CHE lesions) to 4% (the entire front and back sides of both hands are affected by CHE lesions).

Cohort 2: The Rate of Achievement of ≥4-point Reduction From Baseline in Pain Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) Score
The NRS Pain Scale is a widely-used instrument for pain screening. Participants rate the intensity of pain experienced in the past 24 hours on a scale from 0 ('no pain at all') to 10 ('worst pain possible'). The number of participants with ≥4-point reduction from baseline NRS Pain score is reported.
Time frame: Weeks 2, 4, 8, and 12
Population: All participants in Cohort 2 who had baseline NRS Pain scores ≥4 and with data available are included.
