结局指标

主要结局

Psoriasis Area and Severity Index 75 (PASI75) Response at Week 10

时间窗: 10 weeks

PASI 75 response is defined as participants who achieved at least a 75% improvement in PASI score from Baseline to Week 10. The PASI is a system used for assessing and grading the severity of psoriatic lesions and their response to therapy. The PASI produces a numeric score that can range from 0 to 72 (the higher the number, the worse the disease).
