PROTOCOL SYNOPSIS 
TITLE OF 
STUDY 
EFFICACY AND SAFETY OF ADAPALENE 0.3% / BENZOYL 
PEROXIDE 2.5% GEL PLUS DOXYCYCLINE IN SEVERE 
INFLAMMATORY ACNE (NON-NODULOCYSTIC) SUBJECTS 
STUDY 
CENTERS 
No more than 25 sites 
PHASE  
4 
STUDY 
OBJECTIVE 
Demonstrate that a daily treatment regimen of adapalene 0.3% / 
benzoyl peroxide 2.5% gel + oral Doxycycline 200 mg is an effective 
and safe alternative to oral isotretinoin in severe inflammatory acne 
with less than 3 nodules or cysts (non-nodulocystic) during a 12-week 
treatment period. 
STUDY DESIGN 
This is a Phase 4, 12-week, single-arm, open-label, multi-center 
investigational study in subjects with severe inflammatory acne. 
Male and female subjects, 12 years of age or older, presenting with 
severe inflammatory facial acne vulgaris, who have up to 2 nodules on 
the face, are evaluated with a score of 4 (severe) on the IGA scale, and 
who in the opinion of the Investigator are candidates for oral 
isotretinoin, are to be enrolled. 
Up to 25 independent study centers will participate in the study, and 
approximately 180 subjects will be enrolled. Subjects who meet the 
inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria at the Screening 
visit will return to the clinic on Week 0 for baseline measures and to 
start treatment which will continue for a period of up to 12 weeks.  
Subjects who do not need to undergo a wash-out period (Section 6.2.2) 
may combine the Screening visit and Baseline visit and thus attend 4 
clinic visits. Screened subjects requiring a wash-out period (up to 4 
weeks) prior to baseline measurements and beginning treatment will 
attend a total of 5 visits. 
Following the Baseline (Week 0) visit, all subjects will report to the 
clinic for efficacy and safety evaluations at Weeks 4, 8, and 12. 
Subjects will be provided with Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser and 
Cetaphil Daily Facial Moisturizer SPF15 throughout the study to help 
minimize potential irritation. 
PLANNED 
SAMPLE SIZE 
Approximately 180 subjects will be enrolled to complete 
approximately 150 subjects.

STATISTICAL 
ANALYSES 
Analysis Populations:  
The Intent-to-Treat (ITT) Population consists of the entire population 
enrolled at baseline. All efficacy data will be analyzed for the ITT 
Population.   
The Safety Population consists of the ITT Population after exclusion of 
subjects who never took the treatment with certainty, based on 
monitoring reports. All safety analyses will be summarized for the 
Safety Population. 
General Statistical Methods: 
All efficacy variables will be summarized at each visit for the ITT 
Population. Categorical variables will be summarized by counts and 
percentages for each response category (N, %). Continuous variables 
will be summarized using number of subjects, means, standard 
deviations (SD), medians, minimums, and maximums for the data 
collected at each visit. Confidence intervals (CI) will be presented as 
appropriate. All evaluations (including CIs) will be reported for 
exploratory purposes and will be interpreted as such. No formal 
statistical tests will be performed. 
Subject demographics and baseline characteristics will be summarized 
with descriptive statistics. Subject disposition will be summarized 
with the number of subjects in the Safety Population, the number and 
percentage of subjects who complete the study, and the number and 
percentage of subjects who do not complete the study for each 
discontinuation reason.  
The primary endpoint is the reduction in the number of inflammatory 
lesions at Week 12, and is the change in the lesion count from 
Baseline to Week 12. The reduction in lesion count will be 
summarized with descriptive statistics, with a 95% CI for the 
reduction in lesions.  
The IGA Success Rate is defined as the number and percent of 
subjects rated as Clear (Grade 0) or Almost Clear (Grade 1), and will 
be summarized at Weeks 4, 8, and 12 with a 95% CI for the Success 
Rate. The number and percent of subjects who are candidates for oral 
isotretinoin will be summarized at Weeks 0, 4, 8, and 12, with a 95%

CI. The Subject Assessment of Acne Improvement at Week 12 will be 
summarized with counts and percentages for each category.  
The data will be summarized as observed, with no imputation for 
missing values. A last observation carried forward (LOCF) approach 
will be used as a sensitivity analysis. 
Exposure to investigational study drugs and compliance will be 
summarized using descriptive statistics. AE terms will be coded using 
the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA). 
Incidence of treatment-emergent AEs will be summarized by 
MedDRA system organ class (SOC) and preferred term (PT) for the 
Safety Population. Additional summary tables will be provided for 
AEs considered related to the investigational study drug, and for AEs 
leading to discontinuation. 
The symptoms of local tolerability (erythema, scaling, dryness, and 
stinging/burning) will be summarized by frequency and percentage for 
each response category for each visit.  
Complete listings of all data represented on the electronic case report 
form (eCRF) will be provided as an appendix to the final study report 
to facilitate further investigation of tabulated values and to allow for 
clinical review of all parameters.

BACKGROUND AND RATIONALE 
3.1 
Medical Background and Brief Rationale for the Trial 
Acne vulgaris is a chronic inflammatory disease affecting approximately 80% of young adults 
and adolescents.1-4 Four main pathogenic factors are known to lead to its development: follicular 
hyperkeratosis, increased sebaceous gland activity with hyperseborrhoea, microbial 
hypercolonization with Propionibacterium acnes (P. acnes), and inflammation and 
immunological host reaction. The traditional acne treatment paradigm is directed toward these 
factors: initial treatment is with topical agents, followed by courses of antibiotics (preferably 
combined with topical agents), and hormonal treatment in women. For management of severe 
nodulocystic acne that has been proven unresponsive to these conventional therapies, including 
systemic therapy, the treatment of choice is isotretinoin.5-7 
Isotretinoin (13-cis-retinoic acid), an isomer of retinoic acid, was first introduced as a treatment 
for acne vulgaris and various other skin disorders in the 1980s. In the last decade, it is estimated 
that over 11.2 million courses of isotretinoin have been dispensed worldwide; 81 million grams 
of isotretinoin were dispensed from 2000 through 2009 (IMS Health, MIDAS Database, MAT 
Dec 2000–MAT Dec 2009).8,9 
The success of isotretinoin as a treatment for the most severe acne can be ascribed to the fact 
that it targets all four pathogenic factors. It reduces the secretion of sebum, decreases the size of 
the sebaceous glands, prevents the development of comedones, decreases the colonization with 
P. acnes, possesses anti-inflammatory properties, and reduces the levels of metalloproteinases in 
sebum.8-16  
The major limitation of isotretinoin use has been its well-documented adverse effects. 
Isotretinoin is one of the strongest known teratogens among prescription medications, with the 
overall risk of birth defects estimated to be up to 30%. In addition, by interacting with many of 
the biologic systems of the body, it produces a pattern of significant adverse effects similar to 
that seen in hypervitaminosis A. Side effects have been observed in the mucocutaneous, 
musculoskeletal, ophthalmic, and central nervous systems.14,16-20 In addition to teratogenesis, 
these side effects include headaches, elevations in triglyceride and cholesterol levels, liver 
enzyme elevations, potential skeletal abnormalities during long-term use, and depression or 
suicide. Most of the adverse effects are temporary, and resolve after the drug is discontinued. 
Therapy must be individualized for each patient based on clinical presentation, preferences and 
acceptability of adverse effects, monitoring parameters, and potential risks. However, the 
serious adverse effects are of great concern, and have led to more stringent and restrictive 
regulation regarding the use of isotretinoin.18 Despite this, a trend toward the use of isotretinoin 
for less severe forms of acne is emerging. Therefore, there is a growing need for an alternative 
safe and effective treatment for acne vulgaris.  
A medication which can help meet this need is Adapalene-Benzoyl Peroxide (C14H10O4; BPO) 
gel, a unique antibiotic-free combination of adapalene 0.3%, a well-tolerated and efficacious 
topical retinoid, and BPO 2.5%, a well-established antimicrobial agent. The complementary 
modes of action, and the positive efficacy and safety profiles of these two agents, make 
adapalene-BPO gel the most logical choice for once-daily treatment for all types of acne but the 
most severe. Adapalene possesses anticomedogenic, comedolytic, and anti-inflammatory

properties21-24, and BPO is the most potent bactericidal agent against P. acnes.25,26 Because 
neither retinoids nor BPO create selective pressure for resistance, this combination may be 
expected to decrease the incidence of epidermal bacterial resistance relative to antibiotics.27 
Adapalene-BPO gel has been evaluated in clinical trials as a treatment for acne, and has 
demonstrated significant efficacy in several large clinical studies.28-30 As a result, adapalene-
BPO gel has been granted marketing authorization in Canada under the trade name of Tactuo® 
(Galderma). It has also been shown that adapalene-BPO provides higher efficacy when more 
lesions are presented at baseline.31 The efficacy of adapalene-BPO gel could be explained by the 
synergistic effect of adapalene and BPO when used together.30 
Recently, a study in severe acne, following current international guidelines, showed that 
treatment with adapalene-BPO in combination with the antibiotic doxycycline resulted in a 
three-fold increase in success rate compared to treatment with oral antibiotic alone.32 
Doxycycline is a member of the tetracycline class of antibiotics, broad-spectrum bacteriostatic 
agents which are the most commonly prescribed oral antibiotics for moderate to severe 
inflammatory acne. Notably, the incidence of significant adverse effects with antibiotic use is 
low, with the main drawbacks being gastrointestinal distress and dose-dependent 
photosensitivity.15,18,32-35 
While oral isotretinoin is an excellent treatment for severe nodular acne, it may not be 
appropriate in some cases, for example, due to current or expected pregnancy or previous 
adverse reaction to this class of drugs. Combination therapy consisting of adapalene-BPO plus 
an oral antibiotic is the logical and recommended first alternative.36,37  
The gel formulation of adapalene 0.3% / benzoyl peroxide 2.5% (see Appendix 14.1 for a 
product insert) has been shown to be effective and safe, and represents a more potent 
combination product to treat severe acne vulgaris. 
The overall objective of this Phase 4 trial is to determine the extent to which daily treatment 
with adapalene 0.3% / benzoyl peroxide 2.5% gel plus oral Doxycycline 200 mg for 12 weeks 
may be an effective and safe alternative to oral isotretinoin in subjects 12 years of age and older 
having severe inflammatory acne with less than 3 nodules or cysts (non-nodulocystic/non-
conglobate). 
4.0 
CLINICAL TRIAL OBJECTIVE AND CLINICAL HYPOTHESIS 
4.1 
Clinical Trial Objective 
The clinical trial objective is to demonstrate that a daily treatment regimen of adapalene 0.3% / 
benzoyl peroxide 2.5% gel + oral Doxycycline 200 mg is an effective and safe alternative to oral 
isotretinoin in subjects 12 years of age and older having severe inflammatory acne with less than 
3 nodules or cysts (non-nodulocystic/non-conglobate) during a 12-week treatment period. 
4.2 
Clinical Hypothesis 
The proposed clinical efficacy hypothesis is based on the current Acne Treatment Guidelines for 
severe inflammatory acne from the American Academy of Dermatology/American Academy of 
Dermatology Association.37,38  

Galderma Laboratories, LP 
Protocol No.:  GLI.04.SPR.US10355

According to these Guidelines, first-line therapy for severe inflammatory acne is an oral 
antibiotic + topical combination therapy consisting of Benzoyl Peroxide (BPO) + Antibiotic or 
Retinoid + BPO or Retinoid + BPO + Antibiotic. Thus, daily combination therapy with 
adapalene 0.3% / benzoyl peroxide 2.5% gel and Doxycycline 200 mg is a recommended first-
line therapy for severe inflammatory acne; the hypothesis of this study is that this combination is 
an effective therapy alternative for oral isotretinoin. 
5.0 
STUDY DESIGN 
This is a Phase 4, 12-week, single-arm, open-label, multi-center investigational study in subjects 
with severe inflammatory acne.  
This study will enroll male and female subjects, 12 years of age or older, presenting with severe 
inflammatory facial acne vulgaris with up to 2 nodules on the face and a score of 4 (severe) on 
the IGA scale, and who are, in the opinion of the Investigator, candidates for oral isotretinoin. If, 
at screening, the inclusion/exclusion criteria regarding the IGA score and nodule counts are not 
met, the subject should be screen-failed and will not complete a baseline evaluation. Re-
screening will not be allowed during the trial. 
Up to 25 independent study centers will participate in the study, and approximately 180 subjects 
will be enrolled. Subjects who meet the inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria at 
the Screening visit will return to the clinic on Week 0 for baseline measures and to start 
treatment, which will continue for a period of up to 12 weeks. Those screened subjects who do 
not need to undergo a wash-out period (Table 1; Section 6.2.2) may combine the Screening and 
Baseline visits, and thus attend 4 clinic visits. Screened subjects requiring a wash-out period (up 
to 4 weeks) prior to baseline measurements and beginning treatment will attend a total of 
5 clinic visits. Following the Baseline (Week 0) visit, all subjects will report to the clinic for 
efficacy and safety evaluations at Week 4, Week 8, and Week 12.  
Lesion Counts and Investigator Global Assessments (IGAs) for a given subject are to be 
performed by the same Investigator throughout the study, from Week 0 through Week 12/Early 
Termination (ET) visits. 
A urine pregnancy test (UPT) will be required at the Screening, Baseline, Week 4, Week 8, and 
Week 12/ET visits for all females of childbearing potential. The decision may be made by the 
Investigator to perform additional UPTs during the course of the study. 
Subjects will be provided with Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser and Cetaphil Daily Facial 
Moisturizer Sun Protection Factor SPF 15 as needed during the study. To prevent dry skin, 
subjects will be requested to use a moisturizer throughout the study. If a subject experiences 
persistent dryness or irritation, the Investigator may consider a reduced application frequency 
for the investigational study drug gel, as required for the symptomatic relief of skin dryness or 
irritation.  
A summary of the Study Schedule is provided in Table 1.

5.1 
Study Duration 
The planned clinical trial duration from the start of subject screening (i.e., Informed Consent 
Form [ICF] signature by the first subject) to last subject out (i.e., completion of the last clinical 
trial visit by the last subject) is anticipated to be approximately 8 months. The study duration for 
each subject is expected to be from 12 to 16 weeks (12-week treatment, plus a wash-out period 
of up to 4 weeks for some subjects).  
Galderma Laboratories, LP (Galderma) may decide to prematurely terminate or suspend the 
participation of a particular clinical trial center (e.g., for non-inclusion or non-compliance with 
clinical trial protocol, regulations, or Good Clinical Practice [GCP]), or to prematurely suspend 
the clinical trial (e.g., for safety, study drug quality, regulatory, efficacy, or logistical reasons) at 
any time with appropriate notification.

6.3 
Previous and Concomitant Therapies 
6.3.1 
Definitions 
Previous therapies are defined as therapies for the treatment of acne vulgaris that have been 
taken within the previous 6 months, and all other therapies or procedures that have been taken 
within the 4 weeks preceding the Screening visit. Subjects who have previously been exposed to 
oral isotretinoin will be excluded from participating in the study. 
Immunomodulators, biologics, and retinoids prescribed for indications other than acne during 
the previous 6 months must be reported.  
Concomitant therapies are defined as: 
 Any existing therapies ongoing at the time of the Screening visit. 
 Any changes to existing therapies (such as changes in dose or formulation) during the 
course of the clinical trial. 
 Any new therapies received by the subject since the Screening visit.

Page 23 of 102 
 
6.3.2 
Categories 
Previous and concomitant therapies for the treatment of acne vulgaris fall into two categories: 
 Drugs/therapies including, but not limited to: prescription, OTC, birth control 
pills/patches/hormonal devices, vitamins, moisturizers, sunscreens, herbal medicines and 
supplements, and homeopathic preparations. 
 Medical and surgical procedures including, but not limited to: laser/radiation procedures, 
dermal fillers, X-rays.  
Previous and concomitant therapies are to be recorded on the form for drugs/therapies and/or on 
the form for medical/surgical procedures in the electronic case report form (eCRF). 
Concomitant therapies are to be recorded, reviewed, and updated at each visit. 
Any new concomitant therapy or modification of an existing therapy may be linked to an 
Adverse Event (AE). A corresponding AE Form must be completed to account for the change in 
therapy, except in some cases such as therapy used for prophylaxis, dose modification for a 
chronic condition, etc. 
6.3.3 
Authorized Concomitant Therapies 
Unless listed under the Exclusion Criteria (Section 6.2.2) or in Prohibited Concomitant 
Therapies (Section 6.3.4), all therapies are authorized. 
Subjects will be instructed to use Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser twice daily and to apply 
Cetaphil Daily Facial Moisturizer SPF15 at least once daily; liberal application of moisturizer 
should be encouraged. Moisturizers should not be applied within 2 hours (before or after) of the 
application of study drug. The use of a moisturizer will be documented as a Concomitant 
Therapy. Use of moisturizer will not constitute an AE. Cleanser should not be used for at least 
4 hours after study drug application. 
Higher SPF sunscreens (> SPF15) are permitted when discussed with/approved by the 
Investigator, if the subject needs additional sunscreen for outdoor activities. 
6.3.4 
Prohibited Concomitant Therapies 
No topical medication treatment other than the study drug, cleanser, moisturizer, and sunscreen 
will be permitted on the face. The following therapies are prohibited because they may interfere 
with the efficacy and/or safety (e.g., interaction with the study medication metabolism) 
assessment of the study medication. Specific interfering therapies include the medications listed 
in Exclusion Criteria (Section 6.2.2) and the following: 
 Alpha hydroxyl acid products 
 Medicated shaving creams 
 Antibacterial soaps 
 Astringents 
 Preparations with alcohol 
 Drugs that are prescribed off-label for the treatment of acne vulgaris

If prohibited therapies become a necessary treatment for the safety or best interest of the subject, 
the medical monitor should be notified to discuss possible alternatives prior to administration of 
a prohibited therapy. 
If a subject receives prohibited therapy during the clinical trial, the medical monitor should be 
notified to discuss the pertinence and the modalities for the subject to continue in the trial. 
6.3.5 
Procedures/Reasons for Subject Discontinuation/Withdrawal 
Although the importance of completing the entire clinical trial should be explained to the subject 
by the clinical trial personnel, any subject is free to discontinue participation in this clinical trial 
at any time and for whatever reason, specified or unspecified, and without prejudice. No 
constraints are to be imposed on the subject, and when appropriate, a subject may be treated 
with other conventional therapy when clinically indicated. Any subject who does not complete 
the clinical trial will be fully assessed, if such assessment is possible. The procedures designated 
for the Week 12/ET visit should be completed for all subjects discontinuing the clinical trial and 
the appropriate eCRF page should be completed when possible. 
All discontinuations and the reasons for discontinuation are to be documented by the 
Investigator on the Exit Form in the EDC, and also on the Adverse Event Form for 
discontinuation due to an AE. 
For discontinuation due to an AE, the Investigator should ensure that the subject receives 
suitable therapy for the AE. 
An Investigator may decide to discontinue a subject from the clinical trial for safety reasons. 
Galderma may also decide to prematurely terminate or suspend a subject’s participation in the 
clinical trial. Potential reasons for discontinuation, as listed on the Exit Form, are defined in 
Table 2. 
Subjects who are discontinued or withdrawn will not be replaced.

Method of Treatment Assignment and Blinding 
Not Applicable. This is an open-label study. All subjects will receive the same treatment. 
7.1.3 
Study Medication Kit Number 
Not Applicable. No kits will be used. 
7.1.4 
Instructions for Use and Administration of Adapalene 0.3% / Benzoyl Peroxide 
2.5% Gel 
Each subject will receive the investigational study drug adapalene 0.3% / benzoyl peroxide 
2.5% gel in 45 g pump bottles during the course of the study (Table 3).   
This study drug should be applied to dry skin once daily for 12 weeks, at night after washing 
with Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser (provided by the Sponsor; Table 3). A pea-sized amount of 
adapalene 0.3% / benzoyl peroxide 2.5% gel should be put on the fingertip and applied to the 
forehead. The procedure is repeated with a pea-sized amount applied to each cheek and to the 
chin and nose, being careful to avoid application to the nostrils, mouth, lips, and eyelids. The 
objective is to cover the entire face with a thin film of the treatment, even if there are areas on 
the face that do not have acne. While there are five areas of the face to be treated (forehead, 
right cheek, left cheek, chin, and nose), four pea-sized amounts of the study drug are typically 
estimated to be enough for the entire face. Designated study personnel should demonstrate how 
to apply the study drug by using a moisturizer as a tool, to show the subject the amount of study 
drug to use daily and the method of application. The product should not be applied to cuts, 
abrasions, or eczematous or sunburned skin. 
Signs and symptoms of local tolerability are possible during treatment (erythema, scaling, 
dryness, and stinging/burning). To prevent dry skin, subjects will be requested to use a 
moisturizer (Cetaphil Daily Facial Moisturizer SPF15, provided by the Sponsor) throughout the 
study as needed. If a subject experiences persistent dryness or irritation, the Investigator may 
consider a reduced application frequency of the investigational study drug gel as required for 
the symptomatic relief of skin dryness or irritation (Section 7.1.6). 
Subjects should be instructed to store the adapalene 0.3% / benzoyl peroxide 2.5% gel at room 
temperature in a closed container, away from light, heat, and moisture. The study drug should 
not be refrigerated or frozen. 
7.1.5 
Instructions for Use and Administration of Doxycycline Hyclate 
At the Baseline/Week 0 visit, each subject will receive two 120-count bottles of the 
investigational study drug doxycycline hyclate (50 mg tablets) and will be resupplied at each 
study visit (Week 4 and 8 only) with one new bottle (Table 3). During the Baseline/Week 0 
visit, subjects will be instructed to take the first 100-mg dose of doxycycline hyclate at the same 
time as the adapalene 0.3% / benzoyl peroxide 2.5% gel treatment that evening (i.e., receiving 
only a 100-mg dose on Day 0). They will take the second 100-mg dose the next morning, 
beginning the 200 mg per day dosing regimen on Study Day 1. The subject will be instructed to 
completely use one bottle of doxycycline hyclate before starting a subsequent bottle. 

Galderma Laboratories, LP 
Protocol No.:  GLI.04.SPR.US10355 
 
Final Date: 28 Jun 2016 
 
Page 28 of 102 
 
For the 200 mg per day dosing regimen, each subject will take two 50-mg tablets of doxycycline 
hyclate in the morning and at night, for a total of four tablets (a total of 200 mg) daily for 
12 weeks. The tablets should be swallowed, not chewed, should be taken with adequate amounts 
of fluid, and may be taken with food.  
Subjects should be instructed to store doxycycline hyclate tablets at room temperature. 
7.1.6 
Dose Modification 
If a subject experiences persistent dryness or irritation despite use of the moisturizers provided 
(Section 7.1.4), the Investigator may consider dose modification; i.e., reducing the once-daily 
treatment regimen to every other day. The Investigator should attempt to return the subject to 
once-daily treatment within two weeks.  
If this dose modification occurs between Baseline Week 0 and Week 4, and lasts more than 2 
weeks after the onset date of the dryness or irritation, the signs or symptoms of local tolerability 
should be recorded as an AE. After the Week 4 visit, the signs or symptoms related to this dose 
modification should be recorded as an AE, regardless of the duration of the dose modification. 
7.1.7 
Other Supplies 
Galderma will supply the UPTs, Cetaphil® Daily Facial Moisturizer SPF15 or equivalent (Table 
3), and Cetaphil® Gentle Skin Cleanser or equivalent (Table 3). 
7.2

Only qualified study personnel (as designated by the Principal Investigator) will be responsible 
for dispensing study medication. Upon dispensing, the designated study personnel will 
document on the medication bottles the date of dispensing, the SIN of the subject receiving the 
study medication, and the initials of the person responsible for dispensing the medication.  
Full accountability, including the date of return and initials of the study personnel responsible 
for receipt, will be performed and documented for all study medications returned to the clinical 
study center as required. 
Subjects will be instructed by study personnel on the importance of being compliant with the use 
of the study medication throughout the clinical trial, and about the importance of returning their 
investigational study drugs (used and/or unused) at each visit. Each subject will receive 
Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser, Cetaphil Daily Facial Moisturizer SPF15, 45 g pumps of 
adapalene 0.3% / benzoyl peroxide 2.5% gel (to be weighed prior to dispensing and upon return) 
and 120-count bottles of 50 mg doxycycline hyclate (to be counted upon return) during the 
course of the study.  
The adapalene 0.3% / benzoyl peroxide 2.5% gel and doxycycline hyclate will each be labeled 
with the protocol number and a four-digit bottle number. Study personnel should appropriately 
document the dispensation and return of study medication on the site’s drug accountability log. 
At the appropriate visits, subjects will return their investigational study drug and will be 
dispensed new study drug; the process will be repeated throughout the subject’s participation.  
In the event of early termination/suspension of the clinical trial, a rapid recall of 
investigational study drug will be initiated. The Investigator or designee must immediately 
instruct the subjects to stop the study medication regimen and return the investigational study 
drug to the clinical trial center. 
For subjects who do not complete the entire clinical trial, all used and unused investigational 
study drug should be returned by the subjects to the clinical trial center. 
The Investigator will return the investigational study drug to The Coghlan Group at the end 
of the study when all subjects have exited the study. Coghlan will then reconcile the 
investigational study drug by counting the returned pumps and counting the number of 
tablets to create a report of all study drug accountability (pump and tablet counts); the report 
will be provided to the Sponsor.

Treatment Compliance Management and Records 
Investigational study drug will be collected from subjects at Weeks 4, 8, and 12/ET visits. To 
assess subject compliance, the Study Personnel will weigh the adapalene 0.3% / benzoyl 
peroxide 2.5% gel bottle before dispensing and upon subject returning the study drug at each 
visit. The doxycycline hyclate tablets will be counted upon subject returning the study drug at 
each visit. (A count of the pumps of adapalene 0.3% / benzoyl peroxide 2.5% gel and 
doxycycline hyclate tablets will be confirmed by The Coghlan Group after receipt of the 
investigational study drugs from the site at the end of the study [Section 7.3.3].) Other than 
documentation of dispensing to the subjects, no additional accountability will be required for the 
non-investigational products (i.e., Cetaphil cleanser, Cetaphil moisturizer).  
Subjects will be questioned regarding the investigational study drug gel application technique 
and use of any additional topical or systemic medications (including OTC products, and 
sunscreen usage for outdoor activities) which will be recorded in the Concomitant Medication 
Form. Subjects will also be questioned about the number of missed gel applications (if any) 
between study visits.

STUDY ASSESSMENTS AND PROCEDURES 
8.1 
Efficacy Assessments 
Throughout the study, the same Investigator will perform the IGA and lesion counts for a given 
individual subject (Section 8.2). The initials of the Investigator performing the assessment will 
be captured on the eCRF. In the event there is a change in the assigned Investigator for a given 
subject, the reason for change must be documented. Untrained evaluators are not allowed to 
perform these assessments. If it is not possible to use the same evaluator to follow a given 
subject, the Sponsor recommends that evaluations by the primary and subsequent Investigator 
overlap (both Investigators should examine the subject together and discuss findings) for at least 
one visit. This should be documented in the appropriate Comments section of the eCRF. 
8.2 
Efficacy Measurements 
Efficacy assessments performed by the Investigator at Baseline and Weeks 4, 8, and 12 include 
IGA, Inflammatory Lesion Counts (papules and pustules), Non-inflammatory Lesion Counts 
(open and closed comedones), and Oral Isotretinoin Evaluation. Only the subject’s face will be 
evaluated for IGA and Lesion Counts. The Subject’s Assessment of Acne Improvement is an 
efficacy-related subject survey. 
The same Investigator will evaluate a given subject at every visit throughout the study. The same 
Investigator will evaluate whether, in his opinion, the subject is suitable for an oral isotretinoin 
prescription at every study visit. 
The IGA assessment should be performed before the lesion counting. 
8.2.1 
Investigator’s Global Assessment (IGA) 
A Board Certified Dermatologist will assess the subject’s acne severity using the IGA scale at 
every visit, performing a static (“snap-shot”) evaluation of acne severity. No reference to

baseline or other previous visits should be made by the Investigator when evaluating the 
subject’s facial acne. 
The IGA is dichotomized, such that Success is clearly defined as 0=Clear and 1=Almost Clear. 
The IGA Severity Scale is presented in Table 4. 
Table 4. 
Investigator’s Global Assessment Severity Scale 
Severity Scale 
Description 
0 
Clear 
Clear skin with no inflammatory or non-inflammatory lesions. 
1 
Almost Clear 
A few scattered comedones and a few small papules. 
2 
Mild 
Easily recognizable; less than half the face is involved. Some 
comedones and some papules and pustules. 
3 
Moderate 
More than half of the face is involved. Many comedones, papules 
and pustules. One small nodule may be present. 
4 
Severe 
Entire face is involved. Covered with comedones, numerous 
papules and pustules. Few nodules may or may not be present. 
 
8.2.2 
Lesion Counts 
Lesion counts will be performed by the Investigator at baseline and each post-baseline visit. 
Each type of lesion will be counted separately and recorded on the appropriate eCRF page. The 
lesion counts will be taken from the forehead, right cheek, left cheek, chin, and nose (see 
Appendix 0).  
The following lesion types will be counted: 
 Inflammatory Lesions 
o Papule – a small, red, solid elevation equal to or less than 0.5 cm in diameter. 
o Pustule – a small, circumscribed elevation of the skin that contains yellow-white 
exudate. 
 Non-inflammatory Lesions 
o Open Comedone – a pigmented dilated pilosebaceous orifice (blackhead). 
o Closed Comedone – a tiny white papule (whitehead). 
Nodules/Cysts, defined as circumscribed, elevated, solid lesions generally more than 1 cm in 
diameter with palpable depth, are counted at Screening/Baseline visit only. No more than 2 
nodules/cysts will be allowed for study participation (Exclusion Criterion #2, Section 6.2.2). 
Nodules/Cysts are not counted at post-Baseline visits. 
8.2.3 
Oral Isotretinoin Evaluation 
At each study visit, subjects will be evaluated to determine if, in the opinion of the Investigator, 
they are still candidates for oral isotretinoin. Regardless of the results, subjects will not be exited 
from the study due to this evaluation, and will continue participation in the study.

8.3 
Safety Assessments 
Safety assessments will be conducted for all subjects at Baseline and at every subsequent visit. 
8.4 
Safety Measurements 
Safety measurements include Local Tolerability Assessment and the Incidence of AEs. 
8.4.1 
Local Tolerability Assessment 
Signs and symptoms of local tolerability (erythema, scaling, dryness, and/or stinging/burning) 
will be evaluated by the Investigator at baseline and each post-baseline visit. 
The Investigator will record stinging/burning after discussion with the subject, based on the 
prior day’s application. The Investigator will ask an open-ended question such as, “Have you 
experienced any sensations immediately following dosing)?” taking care not to influence the 
subject’s answer. 
Erythema, scaling, dryness, and stinging/burning will be graded (Table 5) at Baseline and each 
post-Baseline visit (face only).

An AE will be recorded if the severity of the signs and symptoms is such that: 
 The subject’s participation in the study is interrupted at the subject’s request or at 
the Investigator’s request. 
 The subject permanently discontinues the treatment at the subject’s request or at the 
Investigator’s request. 
 The subject requires concomitant prescription or OTC therapy (other than moisturizers). 
Note: Need for increased moisturizer use does NOT constitute an AE. 
Any new sign or symptom not included in the scheduled evaluation of tolerability should be 
recorded as an AE, including those of mild intensity.

8.4.2 
Adverse Events  
Throughout the course of the study, all AEs will be monitored and reported on the eCRF 
Adverse Event Form, disclosing any requested and known information. When AEs occur, the 
main concern is the safety of the study subjects. 
8.4.2.1 
Definitions 
The following definitions of terms are guided by the International Conference on Harmonisation 
(ICH) and the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations (21 CFR 312.32). 
8.4.2.1.1 
Adverse Event  
An AE can be any unfavorable and/or unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory 
finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal/investigational 
product, whether or not related to the medicinal/investigational products or to the study 
procedures. 
Thus any new sign, symptom or disease, or clinically significant increase in the intensity of an 
existing sign, symptom or disease, should be considered as an AE. All events that occur after 
signing of the subject ICF until the subject is off-study should be recorded.  
Notes: 
- 
Clinically significant worsening of the disease/condition being evaluated, which occurs 
during the study, is considered an AE. 
- 
Any new signs or symptoms suffered by the subject which appear after accidental or 
intentional overdose or misuse should also be reported as an AE. 
Pregnancy is not to be considered an AE, but must be reported promptly and followed up as 
described in Section 8.4.2.2.3. 
Any AE, whether or not it is related to the investigational study products or to the study 
procedures, will be reported on the eCRF Adverse Event Form along with the diagnosis 
(preferably) or description of the signs/symptoms, the date of onset, the severity, the seriousness, 
the relationship and the action taken with the investigational product, the treatment given to treat 
the AE, and the final AE outcome.  
Assessment of AE seriousness, severity, and causality will be based on specific definitions (see, 
respectively, Sections 8.4.2.1.2, 8.4.2.1.5, and 8.4.2.1.6). 
Side effects may be expected during treatment with Adapalene-BPO Gel, the characteristics of 
which are described in this protocol (e.g., erythema, scaling, dryness, and stinging/burning). The 
course of these expected events will be assessed and reported on the tolerability assessments. An 
Adverse Event Form will be completed only if the severity of the expected signs and symptoms 
is such that an interruption of the Subject’s participation in the study occurred at Investigator’s 
decision and/or if a concomitant medication (except moisturizer) is prescribed to treat the 
sign/symptom.

8.4.2.1.2 
Serious Adverse Event 
A serious adverse event (SAE) is any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose: 
 Results in death 
 Is life-threatening 
 Requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing 
hospitalization 
 Results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity 
 Is a congenital anomaly/birth defect 
Important medical events that may not result in death, be life-threatening, or require 
hospitalization may be considered to be SAEs when, based upon appropriate medical judgment, 
they may jeopardize the safety of the subject, and may require medical or surgical intervention to 
prevent one of the outcomes listed in this definition. Examples of such events are intensive 
treatment in an emergency room or at home for allergic bronchospasm, blood dyscrasia, or 
convulsions that do not result in hospitalization. 
Note: The term “life-threatening” refers to an event in which the subject was at risk of death at 
the time of the event; it does not refer to an event that hypothetically might have caused death if 
it was more severe. 
Inpatient hospitalization is considered to have occurred if the subject has had to stay for a night 
at the hospital. The criterion for prolongation of hospitalization is also defined as an extra night 
at the hospital. Hospitalization may not constitute sufficient grounds to be considered as an SAE 
if it is solely for the purpose of a diagnostic tests (even if related to an AE), elective 
hospitalization for an intervention that was already planned before subject enrollment in the 
clinical trial, admission to a day-care facility, social admission (e.g., if the subject has no place to 
sleep), or administrative admission (e.g., for a yearly examination). 
8.4.2.1.3 
Unexpected Adverse Drug Reaction 
According to ICH E6, an unexpected adverse drug reaction is defined as an adverse reaction, the 
nature or severity of which is not consistent with the applicable study medication information 
(e.g., Investigator’s Brochure for an unapproved investigational drug or the package 
insert/summary of product characteristics for an approved product). 
8.4.2.1.4 
Adverse Event Reporting Period 
The clinical trial period during which AEs must be reported is the period from the time the 
subject (or the subject’s surrogate) signs the ICF to the end of the subject’s participation. 
The Sponsor should be informed if the Investigator becomes aware of any unusual safety 
information or any safety information that appears to be drug-related involving a subject who has 
participated in a clinical trial, even after a subject has completed the clinical trial. The 
Investigator should be diligent in looking for possible latent safety effects that may appear after 
the medication has been discontinued.

8.4.2.1.5 
Severity 
Severity is a clinical determination of the intensity of an AE and not of a disease. 
The Investigator is to classify the intensity of AEs using the following definitions as a guideline 
for all AEs occurring during clinical trials conducted or sponsored by Galderma. For this 
classification, the Investigator will take into account the possible range of the intensity of the 
event and report the grade of intensity which is the most appropriate according his medical 
judgment. 
Mild: Awareness of signs or symptom, but easily tolerated (acceptable) 
Moderate: Discomfort, enough to cause interference with usual activity (disturbing) 
Severe:  Incapacitating, with inability to work or perform usual activity (unacceptable) 
8.4.2.1.6 
Relationship to the study treatment 
The Investigator is to determine whether there is a reasonable causal relationship between the 
study treatment and the AE. Medical judgment should be used to determine the relationship, 
considering all relevant factors, including the pattern of reaction, temporal relationships, relevant 
medical history, and confounding factors such as co-medication or concurrent diseases. 
The expression “reasonable causal relationship” is meant to convey in general that there are facts 
or arguments to suggest a causal relationship (ICH E2A, Section IIIA 1). 
The relationship assessment for an AE is to be completed using the following definitions as a 
guideline for all AEs occurring during clinical trials conducted or sponsored by Galderma: 
 
Reasonable possibility: 
According to the reporting Investigator, there is a reasonable possibility (i.e., suggestive 
evidence or arguments) that there is a causal relationship irrespective of the dose administered 
between the study treatment (investigational product) and the AE. 
No reasonable possibility: 
No suggestive evidence or arguments can be identified regarding a causal relationship between 
the study treatment or the clinical trial protocol procedure and the AE. 
8.4.2.2 
Reporting Procedures 
8.4.2.2.1 
Procedures for reporting adverse events 
The collection of AEs will occur from the time that a subject (or the subject’s surrogate) signs 
the ICF to his final visit. Any AE occurring during the AE reporting period, whether it is related 
to the study treatment or not, will be recorded immediately in the source document, and 
described on the Adverse Event Form of the eCRF along with the date of onset, severity, 
relationship to the study treatment, and outcome, without omitting any requested and known 
information. Additional information may be requested under certain circumstances. AEs assessed 
as related to the treatment will be monitored until they are completely or satisfactorily resolved. 
Other AEs will be monitored until the last visit if they are not resolved or satisfactorily resolved. 
The Investigator will obtain and maintain in the subject’s files all pertinent medical records, 
information and medical judgment from colleagues who assisted in the treatment and follow-up 

Galderma Laboratories, LP 
Protocol No.:  GLI.04.SPR.US10355

of the subject. If necessary, the Investigator will contact the subject’s personal physician or 
hospital staff to obtain further details. 
For SAEs (see Section 8.4.2.2.2), and pregnancies (see Section 8.4.2.2.3), the event must be 
reported by facsimile or scan and sent by e-mail within 24 hours (contact details in Section 
8.4.2.2.2). 
If the Subject discontinues due to an AE, the AE and Exit Forms must be completed. 
8.4.2.2.2 
Procedure for reporting a Serious Adverse Event 
For an SAE occurring during the period of the clinical trial, regardless of whether it is related to 
the treatment or not, and of whether it is expected or not, the Investigator must do the following: 
1. Take prompt and appropriate medical action, if necessary. The safety of the subject is the 
first priority. Additional contact details are provided in the Investigator’s site file. 
2. Complete the Adverse Event Form provided in the eCRF as fully as possible. 
3. Ensure that the event is classified as an SAE. 
4. Complete the Serious Adverse Event Form (available in the Study Reference Manual). 
Send the completed form within 24 hours to Advanced Clinical (AC) Pharmacovigilance 
(PV) by fax (847-919-4677), or scan the completed form and send within 24 hours by e-
mail (drugsafetypv@advancedclinical.com). Include any other relevant information or 
medical records (e.g., physical examination findings).  
AC PV will inform Galderma of the SAE by fax (682-831-9197) and by e-mail 
(PharmacovigilanceUS@galderma.com) within 24 hours. The minimum information that 
must be provided is identifiable coded subject, identifiable reporter, study treatment, 
description of the event (diagnosis). The demographics, medical history, previous and 
concomitant therapies, and AE pages of the eCRF must be completed and available for 
review in the Electronic Data Capture (EDC) system at the time of the report. 
5. Monitor and record the progress of the event until it resolves or reaches a clinically stable 
outcome, with or without sequelae. For all additional follow-up evaluations, complete or 
update a Serious Adverse Event Form, and then fax or scan; send by e-mail all additional 
follow-up information to the AC PV within 24 hours. SAEs will be monitored until the 
Investigator and Sponsor agree that the event is satisfactorily resolved. 
Report SAEs to: 
Advanced Clinical Pharmacovigilance 
SAE eFax:  847-919-4677 
SAE Hotline:  1-855-225-2340 
Email: drugsafetypv@advancedclinical.com 
6. Inform AC PV of the final outcome of the event. Send a revised or updated Serious 
Adverse Event Form and Adverse Event Form, if appropriate. 
7. Comply with the applicable regulatory requirement(s) related to the reporting of SAEs to 
the regulatory authority(ies), Institutional Review Board (IRB)/Independent Ethics 
Committee (IEC) and other pharmaceutical companies (as appropriate).

8.4.2.2.3 
Procedures for reporting pregnancies 
Pregnancies occurring during the screening period are considered screen failures and do not 
require reporting. Any pregnancy occurring during a clinical trial, in which the fetus could have 
been exposed to the study medication, must be reported in the same manner as an SAE (within 
24 hours, as described in Section 8.4.2.2.2) and monitored until its final outcome in order to 
ensure the complete collection of safety data for Galderma products. 
The Sponsor’s Pharmacovigilance Department has instituted a Pregnancy Exposure Follow-up 
program that allows for the follow-up of all exposures in pregnant women. Pregnancy exposure 
is defined as an exposure to the investigational study drug during the subject’s pregnancy.   
If a subject becomes pregnant, the Investigator is to do the following: 
1. Withdraw the subject from the clinical trial  
2. Complete appropriate final visit evaluations and eCRF pages. 
Upon the report of a pregnancy occurring during the study, the Sponsor’s Pharmacovigilance 
Department will contact the Investigator to gather additional information and provide more 
information about the Pregnancy Exposure Follow-up Program. 
If the pregnancy leads to an abortion (voluntary, spontaneous, or therapeutic), ectopic pregnancy, 
in-utero death, or congenital anomaly, the Investigator will follow the procedure for declaration 
of an SAE (see Section 8.4.2.2.2).

Appropriateness of Measurements 
The measurements to be used for assessment of efficacy in this clinical trial are recommended by 
the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in Guidance for Industry, Acne Vulgaris: Developing 
Drugs for Treatment (2005)38, and are widely accepted clinical endpoints in studies evaluating 
treatments for acne vulgaris.  
Change from Baseline in Inflammatory and Non-inflammatory Lesion Counts at Week 12 is a 
commonly used practice to assess severity of acne. All lesions will be counted, including those 
on the nose. 
An IGA will also be performed, using a 5-point scale to evaluate acne severity. As recommended 
by the Agency, IGA Success is defined as Clear (Grade 0) or Almost Clear (Grade 1) at a 
specified time point. Therefore, IGA Success Rate for this study is defined as the number and 
percent of subjects rated as Clear or Almost Clear; Success Rate will be summarized at Weeks 4, 
8, and 12. 
Collection of AEs and SAEs is a standard-of-care medical assessment for safety monitoring of 
patients participating in clinical trials.

2. Obtain the appropriate approved ICF (which contains Photography Consent and HIPAA 
authorization), and Assent form, if needed. Provide signed copies of all forms to the subject 
and parent/legal representative (as applicable). 
3. Assign a SIN to the subject after the ICF is signed. This number will be used to identify 
the subject throughout the study. 
4. Collect information regarding demographics, relevant medical history, and previous and 
ongoing medication/therapy use. 
5. Verify Inclusion/Exclusion Criteria and evaluate the subject for entry into the study. 
6. Perform a UPT on all females of child-bearing potential.  
7. Verify that the subject is not wearing makeup. In the event the subject is wearing make-up, 
the appointment may be rescheduled, or the subject can be instructed to wash the face with a 
Gentle Skin Cleanser; wait for 30 minutes prior to beginning the IGA. 
8. Evaluate acne on the face only, using IGA scale. 
9. Determine if, in the opinion of the Investigator, the subject is a candidate for oral isotretinoin. 
10. If no wash-out is required, Screening and Baseline visits can be combined.  
If Screening and Baseline visits need to occur on separate days (i.e., for subjects who have 
received, applied, or taken treatments as noted in Exclusion Criteria 6 and 7) and additional 
time for wash-out is required, schedule a return appointment for the Baseline visit according 
to the wash-out period for that medication (maximal 28 ± 3 days after Screening). Instruct the 
subject to arrive at the site for the visit without make-up. 
If Screening and Baseline visits will occur same day, complete the Baseline assessments. 
9.1.2 
Baseline Visit 
The following procedures will be performed at the Baseline visit. 
If Screening and Baseline visits occur on separate days, begin Baseline assessments at Step 1 
and complete all assessments listed. If Screening and Baseline visits occur on the same day, 
begin Baseline assessments at Step 7, after completion of Screening assessments and a UPT for 
all females of child-bearing potential (Step 3 below). 
Note: The Investigator/Evaluator for a particular subject should remain the same for the 
duration of the study. 
1. Assess concomitant medication/therapy/procedures and verify required wash-out period has 
been completed for any previous medications/therapies. 
2. Re-confirm Inclusion/Exclusion Criteria and re-evaluate the subject for entry into the study. 
If the subject no longer meets eligibility criteria, no further assessments are required. Enter 
the subject into EDC as a screen failure. 
3. Perform a UPT on all females of child-bearing potential. 
‐ Urine pregnancy testing is mandatory for all females of child-bearing potential.  
‐ For a subject with a pre-menstrual status at the previous visit, confirm that her 
childbearing potential status has not changed (began menses). If her status has changed, 
follow the pregnancy testing schedule for females of child-bearing potential correlating 
to the visit that menses began. Confirm that the subject agrees to use two effective

drug application. 
4. Verify that the subject is not wearing makeup. In the event the subject is wearing make-up, 
the appointment may be rescheduled, or the subject should be instructed to wash the face 
with a Gentle Skin Cleanser; wait for 30 minutes prior to beginning the evaluations. 
5. Evaluate acne on the face only, using IGA scale (see Section 8.2.1). 
6. Determine if, in the opinion of the Investigator, the subject is a candidate for oral 
isotretinoin (see Section 8.2.3). 
7. Conduct the facial Lesion Counts (see Section 8.2.2). 
8. Perform the Baseline Local Tolerability Assessment (erythema, dryness, scaling, 
stinging/burning; see Section 8.4.1). Note: Stinging/burning at the Baseline visit is to be 
assessed as None (0). 
9. Question the subject about AEs by asking an open-ended question, taking care not to 
influence the subject’s answer, such as: “Have you had any new symptoms, injuries, illness 
or side-effects or worsening of pre-existing conditions?” Record all events as appropriate 
on the corresponding AE eCRF pages (see Section 8.4.2). 
10. Have the subject (if 13 years of age or older at the time of Informed Consent) complete the 
Acne QoL form (see Section 8.5.5). Subjects 12 years of age at Informed Consent will not 
complete the form. Confirm that all questions have been answered prior to the subject 
leaving the office. 
12. Obtain photographs of facial acne (see Section 8.5.1).

PROCEDURE FOR FACIAL LESION COUNTS 
1. If the skin is very greasy, blot off the sebum with a paper towel before counting lesions. 
2. Instruct subjects to attend with a clean face and no make-up (foundation, powder, concealer, blush), or remove 
makeup completely with Cetaphil® Gentle Skin Cleanser as soon as they arrive, and wait for 30 minutes prior to 
beginning assessments. Let the skin color return to normal before counting. 
3. Always use a lamp (and glasses, if needed), but do not routinely use a magnifying lens. Use the same room and 
constant lighting conditions for every evaluation. Avoid shadows. 
4. Position the subject in the same place every time. Make sure the subject is comfortable. The subject’s seat 
should be fairly high, so that the evaluator can view the facial skin comfortably (without excessive bending). 
5. Each subject should be assessed at all visits by the same evaluator (Investigator or designee): 
• 
Practice: count-recount (minimizes intra-rater variability). 
• 
Make your decision promptly - hesitation leads to confusion. 
• 
Evaluate the subject after visual inspection and palpation of the skin. Use palpation to assess the depth of 
the spots and to locate ones that are not obvious. 
• 
Do not stretch the skin; this alters the profile of the spots. 
• 
Where many lesions are present, stroke the skin from left to right or from top to bottom to avoid counting 
some spots more than once and others not at all. 
• 
Count the different types of lesions separately. Spots of any size should be counted, however small. 
• 
If it appears difficult to count accurately in a particular area, make a note and exclude this region every 
time for a given subject. If stubble is very obvious, it is best to avoid counting in the beard area. 
• 
Record any problems and how they were dealt with in the subject’s notes. 
6. Lesions should routinely be counted on the whole face, area by area:  
• 
The face is defined by the hairline and edge of the jaw (mandibular lines). 
• 
Use the following template to divide the face into five areas to be evaluated: forehead, right cheek, left 
cheek, chin, and nose (see CRF). 
• 
Nodules/cysts are counted only at Screening/Baseline visit.

7. The exact number of each lesion should be recorded on the appropriate CRF page. The lesion counts will be 
electronically added together to obtain a total lesion count. 
 
The following definitions describe the lesions to be counted: 
 
Non-inflammatory lesions 
- Open Comedone - A mass of sebaceous material that is impacted behind an open follicular orifice 
(blackhead). 
- Closed Comedone - A mass of sebaceous material that is impacted behind a closed follicular orifice 
(white head). 
 
Inflammatory lesions 
- Papules - A small, solid, red elevation less than 5 mm in diameter. Most of the lesion is above the surface 
of the skin. 
- Pustules - A small, circumscribed red elevation of the skin which contains yellow-white exudates. 
Nodules/Cysts, defined as circumscribed, elevated, solid lesions generally more than 1 cm in diameter with 
palpable depth, are counted at the Screening/Baseline visit only. No more than 2 nodules/cysts will be allowed 
for study participation (Exclusion Criterion #2, Section 6.2.2). Nodules/Cysts are not counted at post-Baseline 
visits.
