Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Change in Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) score from Baseline compared to week 8.	The PASI score is a validated, investigator instrument assessing the severity of psoriasis. The severity is combined with the percentage of affected area.	Baseline and week 8.
Secondary	Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI)	A quality of life instrument and will evaluate how much the skin problems affects the study subject's daily life. It is a 10-question questionnaire. Each question contains four response categories: 0=not at all, 1=a little, 2=a lot, and 3=very much. A higher score means worse outcome.	Baseline and week 8.
Secondary	Psoriasis Area Severity Index (PASI)	It combines the severity (erythema, induration and desquamation) and percentage of affected area. A high score means worse outcome.; The body is divided into 4 sections: Head, weight = 0.1; Arms, weight = 0.2; Trunk, weight = 0.3; Legs, weight = 0.4; For each section, the percent of area of skin involved is estimated and graded: 0. 0% of involved area; <10% of involved area; 10-29% of involved area; 30-49% of involved area; 50-69% of involved area; 70-89% of involved area; 90-100% of involved area Within each area, the severity is estimated for 3 clinical signs: erythema (redness), induration (thickness) and desquamation (scaling). Severity is measured on a scale from 0-4, from none to maximum.; The sum of all 3 severity parameters is calculated for each body section, multiplied by the area score for that area, and multiplied for the weight of the body section, for a maximum score of 72.	Week 2 and week 4
Secondary	Physician Global Assessment (PGA)	The Physician Global Assessment, is a 5-point scoring system that will be used to assess the overall disease severity. This treatment response on each visit will be scored: 0 =cleared, 1=almost clear, 2=mild 3=moderate, and 4=severe. A higher scores mean worse outcome.	Baseline, week 2, 4, and 8
Secondary	Tolerability assessment	Tolerability assessment completed by the study subject about local tolerance regarding experience of pruritus and burning/stinging measured on a 5-point scale, or by questions to be answered with yes or no.	Week 2, 4 and week 8.
Secondary	Usability /satisfaction assessments	A questionnaire to be answered by study subject about investigational device usability and satisfaction measured on a 5-point scale, or by questions to be answered with yes or no.	Week 8
