Secondary Proportion of Subjects With 0 AKs Normalized based on number of lesions present at Baseline Week 4
Secondary Subject Satisfaction Score Subject satisfaction score
= Excellent (very satisfied)
= Good (moderately satisfied)
= Fair (slightly satisfied)
= Poor (not satisfied at all) Unknown
Week 52
Secondary Proportion of Subjects With 0 AKs Normalized based on number of lesions present at Baseline Week 12
Secondary Proportion of Subjects With 0 AKs Normalized based on number of lesions present at Baseline Week 24
Secondary Proportion of Subjects With 0 AKs Normalized based on number of lesions present at Baseline Week 36
Secondary Proportion of Subjects With 0 AKs Normalized based on number of lesions present at Baseline Week 52
Secondary Recurrence Rate Recurrence rate of all lesions that were complete responses following on-study cryotherapy (at Visit 3/Baseline). Week 52
Secondary Duration of Response Duration of response is the elapsed number of weeks from the Baseline visit until a lesion recurred or Week 52, whichever comes first within 52 weeks after Baseline
