Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Change in Physician's Global Assessment (PGA) [Baseline; Days 8, 15, 29, 57, and 85; Follow up Day 115]
PGA will be used for overall assessment of efficacy.
- Change from baseline in ulcer size measured by calculating the area of the ulcers in centimeters squared using a digital application. [Baseline; Days 8, 15, 29, 57, and 85; Follow up Day 115]
imitoAG application for mobile devices will be used to calculate the dimensions of the ulcers in centimeters to determine if the size of the ulcers is changed by the treatment.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- The percentage of patients needing rescue therapy from baseline to Day 115 [Baseline through Day 115]
Determining the number of participants that required rescue therapy while on study.
