Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Change From Baseline in the Adapted American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons Shoulder Assessment Form (ASES) Composite Score for the Affected Shoulder at Day 95	Adapted ASES is a self-administered participant reported outcome measure, divided into 2 sections: pain and function. Pain subscale is a single item, 11-point numeric rating scale, ranging from 0 (no pain at all) to 10 (worst pain), calculated as 10 - pain raw score and multiplying by 5, score ranging from 0 (worst pain) to 50 (no pain). Function subscale consists of 10 activities, 4-point ordinal scale about their ability to do the activity with the affected arm, ranging from 0 (unable to do) to 3 (not difficult), calculated by multiplying total score for 10 items by 5 and then dividing it by 3, score range of 0 (no function) to 50 (full function).; Adapted ASES composite score is the sum of the pain subscale score (50% of the composite score) and function subscale score (50% of the composite score), score range of 0 (worst pain) to 100 (least pain). Positive change from Baseline score means an improvement in pain and/or shoulder function.	Baseline, Day 95

A responder was defined as a participant with a response of "very satisfied", "satisfied" or "somewhat satisfied" in the satisfaction with treatment.	Days 64 and 95
Secondary	Number of Participants Positive for Anti-AUX-I and Anti-AUX-II Antibodies	Serum samples were collected and tested for the presence of anti-AUX-I and anti-AUX-II antibodies.	Day 95
Secondary	Number of Participants Positive for Neutralizing Antibodies	Serum samples were collected and tested for the presence of anti-AUX-I and anti-AUX-II antibodies. Only samples positive for anti-AUX-I and anti-AUX-II antibodies were analyzed for neutralizing antibodies.	Day 95
