Trial Outcomes & Findings for Study to Evaluate ASN002 in Subjects With Moderate To Severe Chronic Hand Eczema (NCT NCT03728504)

NCT ID: NCT03728504

Last Updated: 2023-05-09

Results Overview

Percent change from baseline in hand mTLSS at Week 16. The mTLSS is an assessment of the severity of each of the following: erythema, scaling, lichenification/hyperkeratosis, vesicles, edema, fissures, and pruritus/pain. Each of these are rated using a 4-point severity scale. The ratings are added to create a total mTLSS calculated as the sum of assigned individual scores with a maximum value of 21 (most severe disease) and a minimum of 0 (no disease)
