Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change From Baseline in the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) Score for Pruritus (Itching) at 8 Weeks8 weeks

Subjects assessed the level of pruritus (itching) on the left and right sides of their body at each visit, ticking the values on a 100-mm scale (0 mm = no itching; 100 mm = worst possible itching) for each side. Percent change from baseline was calculated.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of Participants With a Psoriasis ½-Body Physician Global Assessment (PGA) Improvement of at Least 2 Levels8 weeks

For subjects with psoriasis, a global assessment (scale of 0-5: 0 = clear except for residual discoloration; 1 = minimal; 2 = mild; 3 = moderate; 4 = marked; 5 = severe) was performed and a score recorded for each side of the subject's body, at each visit.

Number of Participants With an Eczema ½-Body Investigator Global Assessment (IGA) Improvement of at Least 2 Levels8 weeks

For subjects with eczema, a global assessment (scale of 0-5: 0 = clear; 1 = almost clear; 2 = mild; 3 = moderate; 4 = severe; 5 = very severe) was performed and a score recorded for each side of the subject's body, at each visit.

Change in Target Lesion Scoring8 weeks

The subjects' target lesions (ie, a pair of roughly symmetrical bilateral lesions) on each side of the body were scored by the investigator at each visit. Percent change from baseline was calculated.
