Overview
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the patient-reported outcomes (PROs) in terms of health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and signs of Acne Vulgaris (AV) among patients with moderate to severe non-nodular AV who are administered sarecycline (Seysara®) in real-world community practice settings in the United States (U.S). Investigator's Global Assessment (IGA) of AV and safety measures associated with use of sarecycline (Seysara®) will be assessed over the study observation period of 12 weeks. Clinicians will prescribe sarecycline (Seyara®) as per their own clinical judgment and standard practice.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Change From Baseline in Acne Symptom and Impact Scale Questionnaire (ASIS) Domain Score at Week 12
Time Frame: Baseline, Week 12
Patient related outcome (PROs) assessment performed using ASIS Questionnaire, a 17-item questionnaire that asks participants about the signs, impact (emotional and social) of AV, responses were reported as two scales: Signs (9 items), and Impact (8 items). Impact domain had two sub-scales, pertinent to Emotional (6 items) and Social impact (2 items). All items are scored on a 5-point scale: 0 (best) to 4 (worst). A domain score is determined by the average of scores in each scale within the domain. The total score is the average of all 17 items. Higher scores on the ASIS Sign domain, comprised of all items that assess symptoms (items 1-9), indicate the presence of more severe symptoms, whereas higher scores on the ASIS Impact domain, comprised of all the items that assess impacts (items 10-17), indicate a greater negative impact of acne.
