Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Number of Participants With Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) - 75 Response (>= 75% Improvement in Score From Baseline) at Week 16	The EASI score was used to measure the severity and extent of atopic dermatitis (AD) and measures erythema, infiltration, excoriation and lichenification on 4 anatomic regions of the body: head, trunk, upper and lower extremities. The total EASI score range from 0 (minimum) to 72 (maximum) points, with the higher scores reflecting the worse severity of AD.	Baseline, Week 16
Secondary	Number of Participants With EASI-50 (>=50% Improvement From Baseline) at Week 16	The EASI score was used to measure the severity and extent of atopic dermatitis (AD) and measures erythema, infiltration, excoriation and lichenification on 4 anatomic regions of the body: head, trunk, upper and lower extremities. The total EASI score range from 0 (minimum) to 72 (maximum) points, with the higher scores reflecting the worse severity of AD.	Baseline, Week 16
Secondary	Number of Participants With EASI-90 (>=90% Improvement From Baseline) at Week 16	The EASI score was used to measure the severity and extent of atopic dermatitis (AD) and measures erythema, infiltration, excoriation and lichenification on 4 anatomic regions of the body: head, trunk, upper and lower extremities. The total EASI score range from 0 (minimum) to 72 (maximum) points, with the higher scores reflecting the worse severity of AD.	Baseline, Week 16
Secondary	Number of Participants With Investigator's Global Assessment (IGA) Score of "0" or "1" and Improvement From Baseline of Greater Than or Equal to (>=) 2 Points From Baseline to Week 16	The IGA is an assessment instrument used to rate the severity of AD globally based on a 5-point scale ranging from (0 = clear; 1 = almost clear; 2 = mild; 3 = moderate; 4 = severe), higher score indicated higher severity.	Baseline to Week 16
Secondary	Number of Participants Who Achieve Improvement of IGA Score by >=2 From Baseline to Week 16	The IGA is an assessment instrument used to rate the severity of AD globally based on a 5-point scale ranging from (0 = clear; 1 = almost clear; 2 = mild; 3 = moderate; 4 = severe), higher score indicated higher severity.	Baseline to Week 16
Secondary	Number of Participants Who Achieved >=4 Points With Improvement From Baseline in Weekly Average of Pruritus Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) Score From Baseline to Week 16	Pruritus NRS was an assessment tool that was used to report the intensity of a participant's pruritus (itch), during a 24-hour recall period. Participants were asked the following question: how would a participant rate his itch at the worst moment during the previous 24 hours (for maximum itch intensity on a scale of 0 - 10 [0 = no itch; 10 = worst itch imaginable]), higher scores indicated greater severity.	Baseline to Week 16
Secondary	Number of Participants Who Achieved >=3 Points With Improvement From Baseline in Weekly Average of Pruritus Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) Score From Baseline to Week 16	Pruritus NRS was an assessment tool that was used to report the intensity of a participant's pruritus (itch), during a 24-hour recall period. Participants were asked the following question: how would a participant rate his itch at the worst moment during the previous 24 hours (for maximum itch intensity on a scale of 0 - 10 [0 = no itch; 10 = worst itch imaginable]), higher scores indicated greater severity.	Baseline to Week 16
Secondary	Percentage Change From Baseline to Week 16 in EASI Score	The EASI score was used to measure the severity and extent of atopic dermatitis (AD) and measures erythema, infiltration, excoriation and lichenification on 4 anatomic regions of the body: head, trunk, upper and lower extremities. The total EASI score range from 0 (minimum) to 72 (maximum) points, with the higher scores reflecting the worse severity of AD.	Baseline to Week 16
Secondary	Change From Baseline to Week 16 in Percent Body Surface Area (BSA) of AD Involvement	BSA affected by AD was assessed for each section of the body (the possible highest score for each region was: head and neck [9%], anterior trunk [18%], back [18%], upper limbs [18%], lower limbs [36%], and genitals [1%]) and reported as a percentage of all major body sections combined. The reported percentage of BSA was combined percentage of all major body sections.	Baseline to Week 16
Secondary	Change From Baseline at Week 16 in Weekly Average of Pruritus NRS	Pruritus NRS was an assessment tool that was used to report the intensity of a participant's pruritus (itch), during a 24-hour recall period. Participants were asked the following question: how would a participant rate his itch at the worst moment during the previous 24 hours (for maximum itch intensity on a scale of 0 - 10 [0 = no itch; 10 = worst itch imaginable]), higher scores indicated greater severity.	Baseline to Week 16
Secondary	Change From Baseline to Week 16 in Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) Total Score	The DLQI was a validated questionnaire used to measure the impact of AD disease symptoms and treatment on health-related quality of life (QOL). DLQI consisting of a set of 10 questions which assess QOL over the past week. Responses to each questions were assessed on a scale of 0 to 3, where 0 is "not at all" and 3 is "very much". Scores from all 10 questions added up to give total DLQI scores ranged from 0 (not at all) to 30 (very much), higher scores indicated more impact on quality of life.	Baseline to Week 16
