What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI)

    A regional body surface area tabulation based on severity ranging from 0 (none) to 3 (severe), and severity of signs of disease, then multiplied by body area with final calculation ranging from 0-72

    Time frame: 3 weeks

Secondary outcomes

  1. Interim Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI)

    Number of subjects improved at Week 2 compared to Baseline in EASI. Improved is defined as post baseline EASI score smaller than baseline score.

    Time frame: Week 2

  2. Assessment of Itch

    Subject's or caregiver's assessment of itch, on a 10-cm Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), where 0-no itch, 10-worst itch imaginable

    Time frame: through Week 3

  3. Investigator's Global Atopic Dermatitis Assessment (IGADA)

    An assessment of Atopic Dermatitis based on a 4 point scale where 0 (none) and 3 (severe) are used to describe signs and symptoms in 4 designated body regions. Based on the presence or absence of the total number of signs and symptoms, the final rating will be 0-clear, 1-almost clear, 2-mild, 3-moderate, 4-severe, or 5-very severe.

    Time frame: through Week 3
