Measure Description: The EASI index assigns proportionate values to 4 body regions. Each region is assigned a score of 0 to 3, indicating none, mild, moderate, and severe clinical expression. The percentage of area involved is also assigned an eruption proportional score from 0 to 6. The total body score for each body region is obtained by multiplying the sum of the severity scores by the area score, then multiplying the result by the constant weighted value assigned to that body region. The sum of these scores gives the EASI total from 0-72, with higher score indicating more severity.

Title Change From Baseline in the Severity of Alopecia Tool (SALT) Score at Week 24
Hide Description The SALT is a validated instrument for measuring the amount of scalp hair loss at a single point in time The SALT is a validated instrument for measuring the amount of scalp hair loss at a single point in time SALT - Scalp divided into four areas: vertex (40% of scalp surface area), right profile (18% of scalp surface area), left profile (18% of scalp surface area), and posterior scalp (24% of scalp surface area). Percentage of hair loss in these areas is multiplied by percent surface area of the scalp in that area. SALT score is the sum of percentage of hair loss in all areas. SALT scores range from 0 (no hair loss) to 100 (complete scalp hair loss) with lower score indicating better health outcomes/less hair loss. Primary Outcome is baseline minus Week 24 value.
