Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Inflammatory Lesion count over time

    weeks 6, 12, 18, and 24

  • Non-inflammatory acne lesion over time

    weeks 6, 12, 18, and 24

  • Investigator Global Assessment over time

    weeks 6, 12, 18, and 24

  • Treatment Areas over time

    weeks 6, 12, 18, and 24

  • Quality of Life over time

    weeks 6, 12, 18, and 24
