Primary	Change From Baseline in I-V Interwave Latency on Brainstem Auditory Evoked Potentials (BAEP) at a Stimulus Intensity of 80 Decibels (dB) From the Right Side at Month 9	BAEP interwave I-V latency (in milliseconds) was the primary endpoint for this study. High-intensity stimulation (80dB) was used. Participants had BAEP evaluations performed at the same evaluation center, by the same audiology professional using the same equipment, during the study. Audiology and BAEP evaluations were done on the same day, with audiology assessment first. If they could not be done on the same day, assessments had to be within 7 days of each other. A central reader was used for BAEP to confirm that locally read BAEP waves were labelled appropriately and at their peak so that latency were accurate. Central reading also ensured consistency in BAEP interpretation.	Baseline, Month 9 (Baseline was defined as the last non-missing measurement obtained before the first dose in the placebo-controlled phase)

Relatedness to study treatment was determined by the investigator.	Approximately 16 months
Secondary	Number of Participants With Clinically Significant Abnormalities in Vital Signs	Oral, tympanic, or axillary temperature, pulse rate, respiratory rate, and blood pressure (BP) were assessed. BP and pulse measurements were assessed in a chair, back supported and arms bared (free of restrictions such as rolled-up sleeves, etc) and supported at heart level. Measurements were taken on the same arm at each visit (preferably non-dominant) with a completely automated device. Pulse rate was measured at approximately the same time as BP for a minimum of 30 seconds. BP and pulse measurements should be preceded by at least 5 minutes of rest for the participant in a quiet setting without distractions (eg, television, cell phones). Participants refrained from smoking or ingesting caffeine during the 30 minutes preceding the measurements. The clinical significance was determined by the investigator.	Approximately 16 months
Secondary	Number of Participants With Clinically Significant Abnormalities in Clinical Laboratory Values	Safety laboratory assessments included the categories of Hematology, Chemistry, Urinalysis and other tests. The clinical significance was determined by the investigator.	Approximately 16 months

The participants selected one of seven responses ranging from "greatly improved" to "greatly worsened". This Outcome Measure presented the number of participants with PGI-C response which was defined as "greatly improved" or "moderately improved". Participants with missing PGI-C scores were considered as non-responders.	Months 1, 3, 6 and 9
Secondary	Number of Participants With PGI-C Response at 3E, 6E, 9E, 12E and 15E	The PGI-C asked the participants to evaluate the improvement or worsening of their AA as compared to the start of the study using a single item, "Since the start of the study, my alopecia areata has: …". The participants selected one of seven responses ranging from "greatly improved" to "greatly worsened". This Outcome Measure presented the number of participants with PGI-C response which was defined as "greatly improved" or "moderately improved".
