Percentage of Participants Reporting Overall Flushing Events During the First 4 Weeks of Treatment, as Assessed by the Modified Global Flushing Severity Scale (MGFSS)
Participant-reported flushing events during the first 4 weeks treatment, recorded on the hand-held participant reporting device (eDiary) as assessed by MGFSS. The MGFSS measures the side effects related to flushing during the past 24 hours. Flushing means redness, warmth, tingling or itching of the skin. Each question is rated on a scale from 0 (no flushing side effects) to 10 (extreme flushing side effects). Day 1 data are not included in the analysis because MGFSS question refers to last 24 hours flushing score.

Number of Participants Experiencing Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (AEs), Serious AEs (SAEs), and Discontinuations Due to AEs in the First 12 Weeks
AE: any untoward medical occurrence that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with treatment. SAE: any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose: results in death; in the view of the Investigator, places the participant at immediate risk of death (a life-threatening event); requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization; results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, or; results in a congenital anomaly/birth defect. An SAE may also be any other medically important event that, in the opinion of the Investigator, may jeopardize the participant or may require intervention to prevent one of the other outcomes listed above. A treatment-emergent AE is defined as any AE that occurs after the first administration of DMF or ASA/Placebo drug.

Change From Baseline at Weeks 24 and 48 in Quality of Life Measurements as Assessed by Short Form-36 (SF-36) Questionnaire: Physical Component Summary (PCS)
SF-36 is a self-administered, generic health status questionnaire consisting of 36 questions that measure 8 health concepts: physical functioning, role limitations due to physical problems, bodily pain, general health perception, vitality, social functioning, role limitations due to emotional problems and mental health. The score for a domain is an average of the individual question scores, which are scaled 0 (worst health-related quality of life) to 100 (best health-related quality of life). Score from physical function, role physical, bodily pain, and general health domains were averaged to calculate PCS. Total score range for PCS was 0 (lowest level of physical functioning) to 100 (highest level of physical functioning).

Change From Baseline to Week 24 and Week 48 in Quality of Life Measurements as Assessed by the European Quality of Life 5-Dimensions Questionnaire (EQ-5D-5L) Questionnaire: Mobility
EQ-5D-5L is a standardized, subject-rated instrument for use as a measure of health outcomes. The EQ 5D-5L includes 2 components: the EQ-5D-5L descriptive system and the EQ-Visual Analog Scale (EQ-VAS). The EQ-5D-5L descriptive system provides a profile of the participant's health state in 5 dimensions (mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression). For each dimension, the participant is instructed to indicate whether he or she has "no problems" (1), "some problems" (2), or "severe problems" (3). A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.
