End point title |
Percent Change From Baseline in Psoriasis Assessment of Severity Index (PASI) at Week 12 | ||||||||||||||||||
End point description |
The PASI is an assessment routinely used for evaluating and grading the severity of psoriatic lesions and their response to therapy. PASI divides the body into 4 regions: the head, trunk, upper extremities (arms) and lower extremities (legs). Each of these areas is assessed separately for erythema, induration and scaling; these symptoms are scored on a 5-point scale from 0-4, where 0 = no symptoms and 4 = very marked. The PASI produces a numeric score that can range from 0 to 72. A higher score indicates more severe disease. A PASI 75 response represents a reduction of at least 75% from baseline in the PASI score.

Improvement in Investigator Global Assessment (IGA) at Week 12 | ||||||||||||||||||
End point description |
An overall assessment of the severity of psoriasis was made, by the investigator, using the IGA at each visit. IGA scores take values on a 5-point scale from 0-4, where 0 = clear to 4 = severe disease.
Responder is defined as a score of clear or almost clear, or a reduction of ≥2 levels. Success is defined as a score of clear or almost clear. Subjects with discontinued and missing data categories at Week 12 were considered non-responders.

End point description |
The pruritus NRS is an assessment tool used to assess the subject’s worst itch as a result of psoriasis in the last 12 hours. The subjects completed the NRS each morning on (or soon after) rising and evening prior to retiring to bed.
The subjects completed the NRS each morning on (or soon after) rising and evening prior to retiring to bed. They were asked the following question: On a scale of 0 (no itching) to 10 (itching as bad as you can imagine), please rate the worst itching that you felt over the last 12 hours.

At the end of treatment (Week 12) or early termination visit, the subject was asked to rate their degree of improvement (or worsening) of their psoriasis compared to before the start of treatment with study drug, using a 7-point scale, standardized PGIC.
Since the start of the study (dosing), my overall status is:
1. Very much improved
2. Much improved
3. Minimally improved
4. No change
5. Minimally worse
