Treatment and study plan

Oxymetazoline HCL Cream 1.0%

Drug

Oxymetazoline HCL Cream 1.0% (AGN-199201) applied to the face once daily for 29 days.

Primary outcomes

  1. Percentage of Participants With at Least a 2-Grade Improvement (Decrease) From Baseline on Both Clinician Erythema Assessment (CEA) and Subject Self-Assessment for Rosacea Facial Redness (SSA) 5-point Scales

    Time frame: Baseline, Day 29 (Hours 3, 6, 9 and 12)

    The investigator assessed the participant's overall severity of erythema in the treatment area by using the 5-point CEA scale with photonumeric guide where: 0=clear skin with no signs of erythema (best) to 4=severe erythema; fiery redness (worst). A decrease in the score indicates improvement. The participant assessed their overall severity of rosacea facial redness in the treatment area by using the 5-point SSA scale with photoguide where: 0=no signs of unwanted redness (best) to 4=severe redness (worst). A decrease in the score indicates improvement. The percentage of participants with at least a 2-grade decrease (improvement) on both CEA and SSA from Baseline was evaluated over the 12-hour evaluation period (hours 3, 6, 9, and 12) post-dose on Day 29. Baseline was defined as the measurement at pre-dose on Day 1.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Percentage of Participants With at Least a 2-Grade Improvement (Decrease) From Baseline on SSA at Hours 3, 6, 9 and 12 on Day 29

    Time frame: Baseline, Day 29 (Hours 3, 6, 9 and 12)

    The participant assessed their overall severity of rosacea facial redness in the treatment area by using the 5-point SSA scale with photoguide where: 0=no signs of unwanted redness (best) to 4=severe redness (worst). A decrease in the score indicates improvement. The percentage of participants with at least a 2-grade decrease (improvement) on SSA from Baseline was evaluated over the 12-hour evaluation period (hours 3, 6, 9, and 12) post-dose on Day 29.

  2. Percent Change From Baseline on Rosacea Facial Redness as Measured by Digital Imaging Analysis (DIA) at Hours 3, 6, 9 and 12 on Day 29

    Time frame: Baseline, Day 29 (Hours 3, 6, 9 and 12)

    DIA of photographs was used to assess rosacea facial redness and was defined as percentage of facial area occupied by redness. A higher value in the percentage of facial area occupied by facial redness indicated more redness. A negative/ lower number percent change from Baseline indicates improvement.

  3. Percentage of Participants Satisfied or Very Satisfied on Item #9 of Satisfaction Assessment for Rosacea Facial Redness (SAT-RFR) at Hours 3, 6, 9 and 12 on Day 29

    Time frame: Day 29 (Hours 3, 6, 9 and 12)

    Participants assessed their treatment satisfaction by answering Item #9 of the SAT-RFR: "Right now, how satisfied are you with the effect your study medication had on your facial redness?" using a 5-point scale where 0= very dissatisfied, 1=dissatisfied, 2=neither satisfied or dissatisfied, 3=satisfied, or 4=very satisfied. The percentage of participants who answered Satisfied or Very Satisfied is reported.

  4. Change From Baseline on the Symptom Assessment for Rosacea Facial Redness (SA-RFR) Item # 4 at Hours 3, 6, 9 and 12 on Day 29

    Time frame: Baseline, Day 29 (Hours 3, 6, 9 and 12)

    Participants assessed the burning sensation associated with rosacea facial redness by answering Item #4 of the SA-RFR: "Right now, how much does your face burn because of your facial redness?" using a 5-point scale where 0=less severe to 4=severe. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.

  5. Percentage of Participants With at Least a 1-Grade Improvement (Decrease) From Baseline on SSA at Hour 1 on Day 1

    Time frame: Baseline, Day 1 (Hour 1)

    The participant assessed their overall severity of rosacea facial redness in the treatment area by using the 5-point SSA scale with photoguide where: 0=no signs of unwanted redness (best) to 4=severe redness (worst). A decrease in the score indicates improvement.
