LTS Period: Change From Baseline in PROMIS Short Form - Sleep-Related Impairment (8a) 7-Day Recall Score Baseline, Weeks 12, 24, and 52 The PROMIS Short Form - Sleep-Related Impairment (8a) questionnaire assesses participant's self-reported perceptions of alertness, sleepiness, and tiredness during usual waking hours and the perceived functional impairments during wakefulness associated with sleep problems or impaired alertness. The questionnaire is filled in the evening where each item asks the participant to rate the severity of the participant's sleep impairment. It has 8 simple questions with a 5-point scale with a range in score from 8 to 40, with higher scores indicating greater severity of sleep-related impairment. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.
LTS Period: Change From Baseline in PROMIS Short Form - Sleep Disturbance (8b) 7-Day Recall Score Baseline, Weeks 12, 24, and 52 The PROMIS Short Form - Sleep Disturbance (8b) questionnaire assesses participant's self-reported perceptions of sleep quality, sleep depth, and restoration associated with sleep. This questionnaire is completed in the morning by the participant where each item asks the participant to rate the severity of the participant's sleep disturbance. It is a 5-point scale with a range in score from 8 to 40, with higher scores indicating greater severity of sleep disturbance. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.
VC Period: Change From Baseline in Atopic Dermatitis Afflicted Percentage of Body Surface Area (%BSA) Baseline, Weeks 2, 4 and 8 Body surface area affected by AD was assessed for 4 separate body regions and is collected as part of the EASI assessment: head and neck, trunk (including genital region), upper extremities, and lower extremities (including the buttocks). Each body region was assessed for disease extent ranging from 0% to 100% involvement. The overall total percentage was reported based off of all 4 body regions combined, after applying specific multipliers to the different body regions to account for the percent of the total BSA represented by each of the 4 regions. Used the percentage of skin affected for each region (0 to 100%) in EASI as follows: BSA Total = 0.1\*BSA head and neck + 0.3\*BSA trunk + 0.2\* BSA upper limbs + 0.4\*BSA lower limbs. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.
VC Period: Change From Baseline in Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) Score Baseline, Weeks 2, 4, and 8 The DLQI is a simple, 10 question (Q) validated quality-of-life questionnaire to measure how much the skin problem has affected the participant. It covers 6 domains including symptoms and feelings (Q1 and Q2), daily activities (Q3 and Q4), leisure (Q5 and Q6), work and school (Q7), personal relationships (Q8 and Q9), and treatment(Q10). The recall Period of this scale is over the last week. Response categories include 0-not at all, 1-a little, 2-a lot, and 3-very much, and unanswered or not relevant responses scored as 0. Scores range from 0 ("no impact on participant's life") to 30 ("extremely large effect on participant's life"), and a 4-point change from Baseline is considered as the minimal clinically important difference threshold. A negative change from Baseline indicates less impact of the skin problem on participant's life.
VC Period: Change From Baseline in Work Productivity and Activity Impairment Questionnaire: Specific Health Problem (WPAI-SHP) Version 2.0 (v2.0) Baseline, Weeks 2, 4, and 8 The WPAI-SHP is a 6-item participant questionnaire developed to measure the effect of overall health and specific symptoms on productivity at work and regular activities outside of it in the past 7 days. The WPAI-SHP consists of 6 questions as follows: 1=currently employed; 2=hours missed due to AD; 3=hours missed other reasons; 4=hours actually worked; 5=degree AD affected productivity while working; 6=degree AD affected regular activities and the computed percentage, range for each sub scale is from 0 to 100, with higher values indicating greater impairment and less productivity. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.
