a

Treatment-emergent adverse events are those with an onset on or after the date of first study drug injection. Percentages are based on the number of patients in the safety population.

b

Includes the following injection site–related MedDRA (version 20.1; MedDRA MSSO) preferred terms: injection site pain, erythema, pruritus, edema, swelling, rash, dermatitis, infection, and reaction.

c

Includes the following MedDRA (version 20.1; MedDRA MSSO) preferred terms: oral herpes, herpes zoster, genital herpes, herpes simplex, and eczema herpeticum. Individual term rates were as follows: 0% (0 of 52) (placebo) vs 1.4% (1 of 73), 2.5% (2 of 80), and 1.3% (1 of 75) (for the 3 lebrikizumab groups, respectively) for oral herpes; 0% (0 of 52) (placebo) vs 0% (0 of 73), 2.5% (2 of 80), and 1.3% (1 of 75) (for the 3 lebrikizumab groups, respectively) for herpes zoster; 0% (0 of 52) (placebo) vs 1.4% (1 of 73), 0% (0 of 80), and 0% (0 of 75) (for the 3 lebrikizumab groups, respectively) for genital herpes; 1.9% (1 of 52) (placebo) vs 0% (0 of 73), 0% (0 of 80), and 0% (0 of 75) (for the 3 lebrikizumab groups, respectively) for herpes simplex; and 1.9% (1 of 52) (placebo) vs 0% (0 of 73), 0% (0 of 80), and 0% (0 of 75) (for the 3 lebrikizumab groups, respectively) for eczema herpeticum.

d

Includes the following MedDRA (version 20.1; MedDRA MSSO) preferred terms: conjunctivitis, conjunctivitis bacterial, and conjunctivitis allergic.
