PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Through study completion, on average 6 weeks

TEAEs are defined as all AEs with onset or worsening after treatment with IMP up to Visit 5 (Final Visit). TEAEs are considered being related to IMP or medical device, if causal relationship between IMP or medical device and the TEAE is at least possible or relationship assessment is missing. If an AE occurs in different treatment areas (face, scalp, face and scalp), it is reported separately for each treatment area. Thus, some AEs are counted more than once.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: From treatment day (day 1, Visit 2) up to Visit 5 (approx. 28 days post treatment)

The duration of TEAEs related to IMP and/or medical device which occurred in at least two subjects and with complete start and stop dates was analyzed. In addition, the proportion of the duration by severity was analyzed. Duration of severity per subject and preferred term is calculated in days counting all days and all episodes of one severity category together. Calculation is done referring to all subjects with occurrence of respective preferred term. If a severity category of a preferred term does not occur in a subject, the duration of this category is set to 0. If an AE occurs in different treatment areas, it is reported separately for each treatment area (face, scalp, face and scalp). Thus, some AEs are counted more than once for the analysis.

Timeframe: At treatment day (day 1, Visit 2) after end of illumination

Population: For this study, concomitant medication as pain-relieving measure prior to illumination, concomitant medications given as pain-relieving measures during illumination and physical pain-relieving measures (i.e. interruption of the illumination and/or cooling with an air stream and/or nebulized water) were allowed. Subjects might have received a combination of medications (prior and/or during) and/or measures.

Assessed by the subjects using an 11-point numeric rating scale (NRS), where a score of 0 means "no pain" and a score of 10 means "worst imaginable pain".

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: All visits through study completion after Visit 1: Visit 2, baseline, treatment day; Visit 3, approx. 7 days post treatment; Visit 4, approx.14 days post treatment; Visit 5, approx. 28 days post treatment

Population: One subject had elevated systolic and diastolic blood pressure at Visit 1 which was considered clinically significant and thus documented as relevant medical history. At Visit 2, blood pressure data was missing for one subject for the timepoint 'within 10 min prior to illumination', and for two subjects for the timepoint '60 min after illumination'. One subject missed Visit 3 and thus had no vital sign measurements at Visit 3.

Change from baseline is presented. The first measurement at Visit 2 (arrival at site) was considered as baseline value for all following measurements. Blood pressure was measured in mmHg. At Visit 2, photodynamic therapy was performed.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: At screening (Visit 1, up to 14 days before treatment) and at Visit 5 (approx. 28 days post treatment)

Population: Visit 1: For one subject, clinical chemistry but no hematology parameters were analyzed, as the sample arrived at the analyzing laboratory too late. However, no clinical chemistry measurements were documented for this subject. One other subject had no blood sample collected at Visit 1. Visit 5: One subject had no hematology and clinical chemistry assessment at Visit 5, as the blood sample was inadvertently not collected.

Findings which differ from reference range and are considered to be clinically significant are to be reported. Clinical chemistry parameters include glucose, creatinine, total bilirubin, aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanineaminotransferase (ALT), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), alkalinephosphatase (AP),gamma glutamyl transferase (GGT), potassium, sodium, calcium, total protein, albumin.
