Brief summary
This is a phase 3, multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study of treatment with brepocitinib (TYK2/JAK1 inhibitor) in adults with dermatomyositis (DM). The primary objective of this study is to assess the efficacy of two dose levels of brepocitinib in comparison to placebo, as measured by differences in the Total Improvement Score (TIS). After 52 weeks of double-blind treatment, participants have the option to continue therapy in a 52 week open-label extension phase where all participants will receive brepocitinib.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Total Improvement Score (TIS) at Week 52 | 52 weeks | TIS is a composite endpoint based on improvement in the 6 Disease Activity Core Set Measure (CSM) scores and ranges from 0 to 100 (2016 American College of Rheumatology \[ACR\] Myositis Response Criteria/European League Against Rheumatism \[EULAR\]) where a higher score indicates more improvement |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Dermatomyositis Outcomes for Muscle and Skin (DMOMS) at Week 52 | 52 weeks | DMOMS is a composite endpoint based on 4 component measures and ranges from 0 to 100 (Pandya, 2024) where a higher score indicates more improvement. |
| The proportion of participants achieving TIS ≥ 40 points (moderate improvement) at Week 52 | 52 weeks | — |
| Time to achievement of consecutive (≥ 2 visits) TIS ≥ 40 points (moderate improvement) by Week 52 | 52 weeks | — |
| The proportion of participants, regardless of baseline corticosteroid use, achieving TIS ≥ 40 points (moderate improvement) at Week 52 with 0 to ≤ 2.5 mg/day of oral prednisone (or equivalent) at both Week 48 and Week 52 | 52 weeks | — |
| Change from baseline in Cutaneous Dermatomyositis Disease Area and Severity Index (CDASI) Activity Score at Week 52 | 52 weeks | CDASI Activity Score 0 to 100 with higher scores indicating a worse outcome. |
| The proportion of participants achieving TIS ≥ 60 points (major improvement) at Week 52 | 52 weeks | — |
| Change from baseline in HAQ Disability Index score at Week 52 | 52 weeks | Change from baseline in HAQ Disability Index score at Week 52. Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ) Disability Index: Score for function and disability from 0 \[without any difficulty\] to 3 \[unable to do\]. Higher score associated with worse outcome. |
| Change from baseline in CDASI Activity Score at Week 4 | 4 weeks | — |
| The proportion of participants achieving ≥ 40% improvement with a ≥ 4-point improvement from baseline in CDASI Activity Score at Week 52 | 52 weeks | — |
