Trial Outcomes

Total Severity Score (TSS): Percent Change From Baseline at Week 4

Total Severity Score (TSS) is sum of erythema, scaling and pruritus severity scores of the lesions evaluated each on a 4-point scale from 0 = None to 3 = Severe by the investigator. So minimum TSS can be 0 and maximum 9. (NCT00862654)
