A Phase 2 interventional study of Nemolizumab in Moderate-to-Severe Atopic Dermatitis, sponsored by Galderma R&D. Recruiting at 1 site in United States. Open to participants aged 6 Months to 23 Months. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2026-08-14.

The primary objective of the study is to assess the pharmacokinetics (PK) and safety of nemolizumab in pediatric participants (aged 6-23 months) with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (AD) who are not adequately controlled with topical treatments.
Participants will be screened up to 4 weeks prior to the Baseline visit. At Baseline/Day 1, all participants will receive a loading dose of nemolizumab high dose administered subcutaneously (SC), followed by nemolizumab low dose SC every 4 weeks (Q4W) during the 52-week treatment period, with the final study treatment administered at Week 48.
After completion of the 52-week treatment period, participants will enter an 8-week safety follow-up period through Week 60. Participants who prematurely discontinue the study before the Week 48 visit will be followed for 12 weeks after their last administration of study treatment.

Exclusion Criteria
Coal tar products - 2 weeks Topical Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor - 2 weeks Topical phosphodiesterase-4 (PDE-4) inhibitor - 2 weeks Medium and higher potency TCS - 2 weeks Topical calcineurin inhibitor (TCI) - 2 weeks Topical medications with occlusive dressings (e.g., wet wraps) - 2 weeks Systemic (inhaled and intraocular permitted) - 4 weeks or immunomodulatory drugs (e.g., cyclosporine A, oral tacrolimus, cyclophosphamide, azathioprine, methotrexate, mycophenolate mofetil, JAK inhibitors) - 4 weeks or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer) Biologics and biosimilars (e.g., etanercept, adalimumab, infliximab, omalizumab) - 8 weeks or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer) Dupilumab - 10 weeks Live (attenuated) vaccine - 4 weeks Alternative medicine for AD (e.g., traditional Chinese medicine) - 2 weeks For participants with planned live (attenuated) vaccination during the study, consultation with a pediatrician will determine whether vaccination should be postponed until study completion or administered before study start without compromising health. Inactivated vaccines (e.g., diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis (DPT), hepatitis A, , inactivated polio vaccine (IPV), haemophilus influenzae type B, meningococcal, pneumococcal, influenza) are permitted.
Uncontrolled asthma defined as one or more of the following:
Beta-Agonist (SABA) inhalers >2 times per week during the preceding 3 months
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
An allergy, or another reaction of the immune system, to a substance. “Hypersensitivity to the study drug” means a known allergic reaction to it — not every side effect a medicine can have.
The other ingredients in a medicine besides the active drug, such as fillers, colours or preservatives.

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.
