Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Percentage of Patients Achieving a GPPPGA Score of 0 (Clear) or 1 (Almost Clear)
Week 4

The Generalized Pustular Psoriasis Physician's Global Assessment (GPPPGA) is a physician-based assessment of the overall disease severity of GPP at the time of evaluation (specifically pustules, erythema, and scaling/crusting of pustular psoriasis lesions). The GPPPGA is graded on a 5-point scale, ranging from 0 (clear) to 4 (severe). GPPPGA Scale: 0 = Clear, 1 = Almost clear, 2 = Mild, 3 = Moderate, 4 = Severe.

Change From Baseline in AN Count at Week 16: Placebo-Controlled Period
Baseline, Week 16

The AN count was defined as the sum of the number of abscesses and inflammatory nodules from all locations.

Change From Baseline in Facial Inflammatory Lesion Counts at Week 12
Baseline, Week 12

The number of facial inflammatory lesions (pustules, papules, and nodular lesions) on the forehead, left and right cheeks, nose, and chin were counted. Baseline was defined as the last available measurement taken prior to the first dose of study treatment.

Change From Baseline in Palmoplantar Pustulosis Psoriasis Area Severity Index (PPPASI)
Baseline to Week 16

The Palmoplantar Pustulosis Area and Severity Index (PPPASI) is used to assess the severity of palmoplantar pustulosis lesions and their response to therapy. The glabrous skin of both palms and both soles are assessed for erythema, pustules, and desquamation (scaling), each on a scale from 0 (none) to 4 (very severe). The area affected of each palm and sole is scored from 0 (0%) to 6 (90-100%). Scores for the 3 characteristics of PPP are summed and adjusted for the area affected, and the scores for each palm and sole are added to calculate the total score. The PPPASI total score ranges from 0 to 72. A higher score indicates more severe disease, and a negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.

Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)
From first dose of any study drug to Week 24

Clinical safety was evaluated by reporting incidence of adverse events up to week 24. TEAEs are defined as new events that occured during or after first dose of study drug or any event that worsens after first dose of study drug. A serious AE (SAE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence that resulted in death, was life-threatening, resulted in persistent disability/incapacity, was a congenital anomaly/birth defect, or an important medical event that may jeopardize the participant or require medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the outcomes listed above. Severity was assessed by the Investigator as mild (easily tolerated, causing minimal discomfort and not interfering with everyday activities), moderate (causes sufficient discomfort and interferes with normal everyday activities) or severe (prevents normal everyday activities). The Investigator assessed the relationship between study treatment and each AE based on clinical judgement.

Percentage of Participants Achieving Clinical Response on the Clinical Global Impression (CGI) Scale
Week 4 and Week 16

Clinical response was defined as "Very much improved," "Much Improved," or "Minimally Improved" on the CGI scale according to the Modified Japanese Dermatological Association Severity Index (JDA-SI) total score. The JDA-SI includes assessment of skin lesions (area of erythema with pustules, area of erythema total, and area of edema) and fever, white blood cell count, C-reactive protein and serum albumin levels. The total score ranges from 0 to 17 (severe). CGI was assessed based on the JDA-SI according to the following: * Very Much Improved: Reduction in JDA-SI total score by 3 or \> points; * Much improved: Reduction in JDA-SI total score by 1 or 2 points; * Minimally improved: No change in JDA-SI total score and area of erythema with pustules reduced by \<20% or clinically meaningful improvement in at least 1 other component of the modified JDA-SI.

Percent Change From Baseline in Body Surface Area of Erythema With Pustules at Week 1, Week 4, and Week 16
Baseline, Week 1, Week 4, and Week 16

Excluding palms and soles from 0% to 100%. The palmar surface of one hand (using the subject's hand and including the fingers) represents 1% of his or her total BSA.
