Terms in these criteria, in plain language(3)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Immunosuppression

A weakened immune system. It can come from an illness, such as HIV or some blood cancers, or from medicines that turn the immune system down, for example after an organ transplant or for an autoimmune disease; steroids at higher doses count.

Read whether the line is about a condition or about medicines, and which medicines and doses it means.

Corticosteroids (steroids)

Anti-inflammatory medicines such as prednisone, prednisolone and dexamethasone — not the anabolic steroids used for muscle.

Studies differ in what they allow: check which steroid medicines, routes (tablets, injections, creams, inhalers, eye drops) and doses this study accepts.

Investigational drug or device

A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.

It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Percent Change From Baseline in Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI)

    The EASI assesses objective physician estimates of 2 dimensions of atopic dermatitis - disease extent and clinical signs affected: 0 = 0%; 1 = 1-9%; 2 = 10-29%; 3 = 30-49%; 4 = 50-69%; 5 = 70-89%; 6 = 90-100% and the severity of 4 clinical signs: (1) erythema, (2) edema/papulation, (3) excoriation, and (4) lichenification each on a scale of 0 to 3 (0 = none, absent; 1 = mild; 2 = moderate; 3 = severe) at 4 body sites (head/neck, trunk, upper limbs, and lower limbs). Half scores are allowed between severities 1, 2, and 3. The final EASI score was obtained by weight-averaging these 4 scores and will range from 0 to 72 (severe). Least Square (LS) Means were calculated using analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) with the factor of treatment and the baseline EASI as covariate. Note: Missing values were imputed using Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) multiple imputation.

    Time frame: Week 16

  6. Percent Change From Baseline in the Sleep Loss Scale Score

    The Sleep Loss Scale is used by the participants to report the impact of itching on their sleep every night. Participants responded to the question to what extent did your itching interfere with your sleep last night. The scale ranged from 0 to 4, with 0 (not at all) to 4 (unable to sleep at all). Higher scores indicated a greater impact and worse outcome. Assessments were recorded daily by the participant using an electronic diary. Least Squares (LS) Means were calculated using ANCOVA with the factor of treatment and the baseline sleep-loss scale as covariates.

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 16

  7. Percent Change From Baseline in Pruritus Numeric Rating Score (NRS)

    The Pruritus NRS is an 11-point scale used by participants to assess their worst itch severity over the past 24 hours, with 0 indicating no itch and 10 indicating worst itch imaginable. Pruritus assessments were recorded daily by the participant using an electronic diary. LS Means were calculated using ANCOVA with the factor of treatments and the baseline pruritus NRS as covariates.

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 16

  8. Percentage of Participants With Pruritus NRS Change of ≥3 at Week 16

    The Pruritus NRS is an 11-point scale used by participants to assess their worst itch severity over the past 24 hours, with 0 indicating no itch and 10 indicating worst itch imaginable. Assessments were recorded daily by the participant using an electronic diary. The percentage of participants who are dichotomized to success (pruritus NRS greater than or equal to 3-point improvement) at Week 16 will be analyzed using a Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel (CMH) test.

    Time frame: Week 16

  9. Percentage of Participants With Pruritus NRS Change of ≥4 From Baseline to Week 16

    The Pruritus NRS is an 11-point scale used by participants to assess their worst itch severity over the past 24 hours, with 0 indicating no itch and 10 indicating worst itch imaginable. Assessments were recorded daily by the participant using an electronic diary. The percentage of participants who are dichotomized to success (pruritus NRS greater than or equal to 4-point improvement) at Week 16 will be analyzed using a Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel (CMH) test.

    Time frame: Week 16

  10. Change From Baseline in Body Surface Area (BSA) Involved With Atopic Dermatitis (AD)

    The body surface area (BSA) affected by AD will be assessed for 4 separate body regions: head and neck, trunk (including genital region), upper extremities, and lower extremities (including the buttocks). Each body region will be assessed for disease extent ranging from 0% to 100% involvement. BSA was calculated using the participant's palm using the 1% rule, 1 palm was equivalent to 1% with estimates of the number of palms it takes to cover the affected AD area. Maximum number of palms were 10 palms for head and neck (10%), 20 palms for upper extremities (20%), 30 palms for trunk, including axilla and groin (30%), 40 palms for lower extremities, including buttocks (40%). Percent of BSA for a body region was calculated as = total number of palms in a body region \* % surface area equivalent to 1 palm. Overall percent BSA of all 4 body regions ranges from 0% to 100 % with higher values representing greater severity of AD.

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 16

  11. Change From Baseline in Atopic Dermatitis Impact Questionnaire (ADIQ) Score

    The ADIQ is a 17-item questionnaire used to assess the participant's AD-specific health-related quality of life. Each item is rated on a 5-point scale from 0 to 4, with higher numbers indicating greater burden. The questionnaire assesses AD's impact on emotions, energy, activities of daily living, and social activities. The ADIQ has a recall specification of 7 days. Assessments were recorded by the participant using an electronic diary and transferred to the clinical database.The ADIQ score is calculated by summing the score of each of the 14 questions resulting in a maximum of 56 and a minimum of 0, with higher scores indicating greater burden.

SecondaryPercent Change From Baseline in the Sleep Loss Scale Score

The Sleep Loss Scale is used by the participants to report the impact of itching on their sleep every night. Participants responded to the question to what extent did your itching interfere with your sleep last night. The scale ranged from 0 to 4, with 0 (not at all) to 4 (unable to sleep at all). Higher scores indicated a greater impact and worse outcome. Assessments were recorded daily by the participant using an electronic diary. Least Squares (LS) Means were calculated using ANCOVA with the factor of treatment and the baseline sleep-loss scale as covariates.

The Pruritus NRS is an 11-point scale used by participants to assess their worst itch severity over the past 24 hours, with 0 indicating no itch and 10 indicating worst itch imaginable. Pruritus assessments were recorded daily by the participant using an electronic diary. LS Means were calculated using ANCOVA with the factor of treatments and the baseline pruritus NRS as covariates.

The Pruritus NRS is an 11-point scale used by participants to assess their worst itch severity over the past 24 hours, with 0 indicating no itch and 10 indicating worst itch imaginable. Assessments were recorded daily by the participant using an electronic diary. The percentage of participants who are dichotomized to success (pruritus NRS greater than or equal to 3-point improvement) at Week 16 will be analyzed using a Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel (CMH) test.

SecondaryChange From Baseline in Body Surface Area (BSA) Involved With Atopic Dermatitis (AD)

The body surface area (BSA) affected by AD will be assessed for 4 separate body regions: head and neck, trunk (including genital region), upper extremities, and lower extremities (including the buttocks). Each body region will be assessed for disease extent ranging from 0% to 100% involvement. BSA was calculated using the participant's palm using the 1% rule, 1 palm was equivalent to 1% with estimates of the number of palms it takes to cover the affected AD area. Maximum number of palms were 10 palms for head and neck (10%), 20 palms for upper extremities (20%), 30 palms for trunk, including axilla and groin (30%), 40 palms for lower extremities, including buttocks (40%). Percent of BSA for a body region was calculated as = total number of palms in a body region \* % surface area equivalent to 1 palm. Overall percent BSA of all 4 body regions ranges from 0% to 100 % with higher values representing greater severity of AD.

SecondaryChange From Baseline in Atopic Dermatitis Impact Questionnaire (ADIQ) Score

The ADIQ is a 17-item questionnaire used to assess the participant's AD-specific health-related quality of life. Each item is rated on a 5-point scale from 0 to 4, with higher numbers indicating greater burden. The questionnaire assesses AD's impact on emotions, energy, activities of daily living, and social activities. The ADIQ has a recall specification of 7 days. Assessments were recorded by the participant using an electronic diary and transferred to the clinical database.The ADIQ score is calculated by summing the score of each of the 14 questions resulting in a maximum of 56 and a minimum of 0, with higher scores indicating greater burden.

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Ran from Jan 2018 to primary completion in Feb 2019, 12 months.

Results were first posted in May 2021, 2 years 2 months after primary completion. A results delay was requested in Mar 2020.

Of 195 industry-sponsored phase 2 interventional studies under Dermatitis, Atopic, half reached primary completion within 13 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 9 and three quarters within 17. This study's 12 months is close to that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 223 studies reached it within 14 months; a quarter within 10 and three quarters within 19.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on May 4, 2021, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
