Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Mean Total Improvement Score (TIS) at Week 24
At Week 24

Total improvement score was derived from standardized clinical response criteria which was calculated by sum of improvement scores of 6 core set measures (CSMs) included physician global disease activity (PhGDA), patient global disease activity (PtGDA), manual muscle testing 8 (MMT8) bilateral, health assessment questionnaire-disability index (HAQ-DI), extramuscular global assessment (EGA), and laboratory muscle enzymes (LME). Total improvement score was ranged from 0 to 100, where higher scores indicated greater improvement. The TIS improvement categories are defined as minimal (TIS greater than or equal to \[≥\]20), moderate (TIS ≥40) and major improvement (TIS ≥60). Mean TIS at week 24 was reported in this outcome measure.

Percent Change From Baseline in SALT Score at Week 24
Baseline to Week 24

The SALT score determined the degree of hair loss based on the percentage of scalp surface area involved on the top, back, and each side of the scalp for AA. The Investigator determined the percent scalp hair loss in a given quadrant, multiplied this by the total scalp area delineated by that quadrant, and summed the resultant numbers for each quadrant to give the total percent scalp hair loss with a range of 0-100. Higher scores indicated more severe AA symptoms. A decrease in SALT score from baseline indicated a reduction in AA symptoms. Baseline indicates last non-missing valid observation prior to the first dose of daxdilimab.

Number of Participants Achieving a BILAG-2004 Index-based Combined Lupus Assessment (BICLA) Response and an OGC Dose ≤ 7.5 mg/Day and ≤ Baseline Dose of Prednisone or Equivalent at Week 48
Week 48

A BICLA response required improvement in all domains affected at baseline, assessed by the BILAG 2004, no worsening of other BILAG 2004 domains, no worsening of SLEDAI-2K or PGA scores compared with baseline, no use of restricted medications beyond the protocol-allowed threshold, and no discontinuation of IP.
