What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Percent Change From Baseline in Inflammatory Lesion Count at Week 12

    Percent change from baseline in inflammatory lesion count at week 12 was reported. Inflammatory lesions included facial inflammatory lesions of rosacea (that is \[i.e.\] papules and pustules) which were defined as follows: Papule - a small, solid elevation less than 1.0 centimeter (cm) in diameter; and Pustule - a small, circumscribed elevation of the skin, which contains yellow white exudates. Papules and pustules were counted separately on each of the 5 facial regions (forehead, chin, nose, right cheek and left cheek). Notably, nodules (i.e. circumscribed, elevated, solid lesions more than 1.0 cm in diameter with palpable depth) were not included in the count of inflammatory lesions.

    An AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant or clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily had a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory value), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal (investigational) product, whether or not related to the medicinal (investigational) product. A SAE was any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose: results in death, was life-threatening, required hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, resulted in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, or was a congenital anomaly/birth defect.

PrimaryPercent Change From Baseline in Inflammatory Lesion Count at Week 12

Percent change from baseline in inflammatory lesion count at week 12 was reported. Inflammatory lesions included facial inflammatory lesions of rosacea (that is \[i.e.\] papules and pustules) which were defined as follows: Papule - a small, solid elevation less than 1.0 centimeter (cm) in diameter; and Pustule - a small, circumscribed elevation of the skin, which contains yellow white exudates. Papules and pustules were counted separately on each of the 5 facial regions (forehead, chin, nose, right cheek and left cheek). Notably, nodules (i.e. circumscribed, elevated, solid lesions more than 1.0 cm in diameter with palpable depth) were not included in the count of inflammatory lesions.

CEA is a 5 point scale where 0 = clear (clear skin with no signs of erythema); 1 = almost clear (almost clear; slight redness); 2 = mild (mild erythema; definite redness); 3 = moderate (moderate erythema; marked redness); 4 = severe (severe erythema; fiery redness). A higher score than baseline indicates a worse outcome.

An AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant or clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily had a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory value), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal (investigational) product, whether or not related to the medicinal (investigational) product. A SAE was any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose: results in death, was life-threatening, required hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, resulted in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, or was a congenital anomaly/birth defect.
