- Percentage of Participants With an Absolute Severity of Alopecia Tool (SALT) Score of Less Than or Equal to 20 at Week 24 [ Time Frame: Week 24 ]SALT is a quantitative assessment of AA severity based on the scalp hair loss. The SALT score can vary from 0 (normal) to 100 (severe), with higher scores representing increased severity of disease. In this outcome measure, percentage of participants with SALT score less than or equal to (<=) 20 at week 24 were reported.
- Percentage of Participants With an Absolute SALT Score of Less Than or Equal to 10 at Week 24: Analysis 4 [ Time Frame: Week 24 ]SALT is a quantitative assessment of AA severity based on the scalp hair loss. The SALT score can vary from 0 (normal) to 100 (severe), with higher scores representing increased severity of disease. In this outcome measure, percentage of participants with SALT score <= 10 at week 24 were reported.
- Percentage of Participants With an Absolute SALT Score of Less Than or Equal to 10 at Week 24: Analysis 1 [ Time Frame: Week 24 ]SALT is a quantitative assessment of AA severity based on the scalp hair loss. The SALT score can vary from 0 (normal) to 100 (severe), with higher scores representing increased severity of disease.

- Percentage of Participants With Patient Global Impression of Change (PGI-C) Score of Moderately Improved or Greatly Improved at Week 24 [ Time Frame: Week 24 ]PGI-C is a self-administered questionnaire to evaluate the improvement or worsening of participant's AA as compared to the start of the study. PGI-C was assessed on a 7-point Likert scale ranged from 1 (greatly improved) to 7 (greatly worsened). Categories were defined based on the PGI-C scores as follows: 1=greatly improved, 2=moderately improved, 3=slightly improved, 4=not changed, 5=slightly worsened, 6=moderately worsened and 7=greatly worsened.
- Exposure Response of PF-06651600 on Regrowth of Lost Hair Based on Absolute SALT Score of Less Than or Equal to 20 at Week 24: Maximum Effect (Emax) Model [ Time Frame: Week 24 ]The exposure response of Ritlecitinib (PF-06651600) on the regrowth of scalp hair was characterized using a Bayesian three-parameter hyperbolic Emax model for the SALT score <=20 at Week 24 with an additional term for effect of loading dose. In Emax exposure-response model the response function was the log odds of the percentage of participants with response based on SALT <=20 at Week 24, which was fit on the logistic scale and then back-transformed to percentage. The effect of loading dose is included as fixed factor in the model. The variable that represents loading dose has values of 1 for groups 200/50 mg once daily and 200/30 mg once daily and of 0 for the remaining groups. SALT is a quantitative assessment of AA severity based on the scalp hair loss. The SALT score can vary from 0 (normal) to 100 (severe), with higher scores representing increased severity of disease.
