•\- Participants must have a history of severe itch and a worst itch score of \>/\=7 at screening on the WI\-NRS (score scale ranges from 0 to 10; higher score indicates worse itch) and Patient global impression of severity (PGIS) of pruritus scored severe at screening.
•\- Participants must have an average worst itch score of \>/\=7 in the 7 days prior to run\-in visit and in the 7 days prior to Day 1 on the WI\-NRS.
•\- Participants scored severe in the PGIS of pruritus on Day 1\.
