Sponsored by Almirall, S.A. · Phase 3, Interventional, and Treatment
The main aim of the study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of lebrikizumab treatment in adult participants with Nummular Eczema (NE) who are not adequately controlled with Topical corticosteroids (TCS) or when this treatment is not medically advisable.
238 studies on the registry are indexed under Dermatitis; 34 are open to participants now.
This study's planned enrollment of 270 is above the median of 68 across 191 interventional studies indexed under Dermatitis.

Participants fulfilling any of the exclusion criteria per protocol are not eligible for inclusion in this trial main criteria are listed below:
Have had any of the following types of infection within 3 months of Screening or develop any of these infections before Baseline/Day 1:
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.
Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.
You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.
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.
A planned gap after a treatment, so that its effects can lessen before the study treatment or a study assessment. Ask the study team and the doctor who prescribed it before changing any medicine.
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.
Hepatitis B is a virus that infects the liver. These are separate tests: HBsAg positive usually means a current infection (a recent vaccination can briefly cause it too); total anti-HBc (HBcAb) positive means an infection now or in the past; HBV DNA measures how much virus is in the blood.
Some studies accept a past infection if HBV DNA is undetectable, sometimes with antiviral medicine during the study. Check what this study allows.
Hepatitis C is a virus that infects the liver. An HCV antibody test can stay positive after an infection has cleared (and is occasionally positive without one); an HCV RNA test shows whether the virus is there now.
After treatment, hepatitis C counts as cured when HCV RNA is still undetectable 12 weeks or more after the treatment ended. Studies often accept people cured this way.
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.
The human immunodeficiency virus, which weakens the immune system.
Many studies now accept people whose HIV is controlled on treatment, judged by the viral load and the CD4 count. Check the limits this study sets.
Judged by the study doctor to matter for your health or for the study. It is a doctor’s decision, so ask the study team if you are unsure whether something counts.
Malignancy means cancer. Criteria about another or earlier malignancy ask whether you have had a different cancer, usually within a set number of years.
Some are commonly allowed, such as treated skin cancers other than melanoma and early cancers removed completely — check the exceptions this study lists.

Absolute Change from Baseline in European Quality of Life Survey (EQ-5D-5L) at Week 24
EQ-5D-5L is a standardised measure of health status that provides a profile of participant health on the day of questionnaire completion. It consists of 2 parts: a descriptive system comprising 5 dimensions (mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain and discomfort, and anxiety and depression), each of which have 5 response levels of perceived problems, and a visual analogue scale scoring overall health on a scale from 0 (worst conceivable state of health) to 100 (best conceivable state of health).
Time frame: Baseline, Week 24
Absolute Change from Baseline in Patient Global Assessment of Disease Status (PGADS) at Week 24
PGADS measures static disease severity. Participants are asked "Considering all the ways in which your eczema affects you, indicate how well you are doing" and rate their overall well-being based on a 5-point Likert scale from 1 being "Poor" to 5 being "Excellent".
Time frame: Baseline, Week 24
Absolute Change in Skin Pain NRS Score from Baseline at Week 24
The Skin Pain NRS is a two-item measure including an 11-point scale in which participants are asked to rate their skin pain over the prior 24 hours, where 0 is no pain and 10 is the worst imaginable pain.
Time frame: Baseline, Week 24
Absolute Change in ItchyQoL from Baseline at Week 24
The ItchyQoL questionnaire is a PRO measure specifically designed to assess the impact of pruritus (itch) on an individual's quality of life. Both versions of ItchyQoL Frequency and Bother will be assessed in the study. The assessment consists of 22 items for Frequency and 15 items for Bother, covering 3 domains: symptoms, functioning, emotions. Each item utilises a 5-point response scale (1: never; 2: rarely; 3: sometimes; 4: often; 5: all of the time). A total score is calculated by summing individual item responses with higher scores indicating greater impact on health-related quality of life.
Time frame: Baseline, Week 24
Percentage Change in Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) from Baseline at Week 24 in Participants with Atopic Dermatitis (AD)
