Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Change From Baseline to Day 15 in Modified Local SCORing Atopic Dermatitis (SCORAD)
Modified Local SCORAD is the sum of 5 individual indexes; erythema, edema/papulation, oozing/crusts, excoriations and lichenification scored on a 4 point scale, where 0=absent and 3=severe, with a total possible score of 15. Higher scores indicate greater severity.
Baseline and Day 15
Secondary Outcomes (2)
