Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Subjects with treatment success according to Physician's Global Assessment (PGA) at visit 6 (End of Treatment) [56 days]

    Treatment success according to the PGA is defined as: Subjects having mild disease at baseline must achieve clear. Subjects having moderate or severe disease at baseline must achieve clear or almost clear

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Hand Eczema Severity Index (HECSI) at visit 6 [56 days]

  2. Subjects with treatment success according to the Patient's Global Assessment of disease severity (PaGA) at visit 6 (End of Treatment) [56 days]

    Treatment success according to the PaGA is defined as: Subjects having very mild or mild disease at baseline must achieve clear. Subjects having moderate or severe disease at baseline must achieve clear or very mild
