Study summary

This study is expected to include approximately 520 patients with moderate to severe AD, and they will be randomly assigned to the treatment group (IBI3027) and the control group (Dupilumab Injection ) in a 1:1 ratio.

Study period: It includes a screening period (4 weeks), a treatment period (44 weeks), and a follow-up period (8 weeks).

After screening is completed, participants will be randomly grouped in a 1:1 ratio. On Day 1 (D1), they will receive a loading dose of either IBI3027 or Dupilumab Injection 600 mg by subcutaneous injection (SC), followed by 300 mg each time, SC administration, once every 2 weeks (Q2W), until the last administration on W44. After the treatment is completed, a 8-week safety follow-up will be conducted.

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(5)

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.

HIV

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.

Hepatitis C tests

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.

Hepatitis B tests

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.

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.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. The proportion of participants who achieved EASI-75

    EASI is an assessment tool used to evaluate the severity of atopic dermatitis and the extent of skin lesions involved. The score of EASI ranges from 0 to 72 points. The higher the score, the more severe the disease. EASI divides the affected areas into four regions: head and neck, trunk, upper limbs, and lower limbs. Scores are given for each region based on the area of involvement. The severity of skin lesions in each region is calculated according to the severity of erythema, sclerosis or papules, epidermal desquamation, and lichenification. Finally, the scores of the four regions are added together to obtain the total score.

    Time frame: Week 16

Secondary outcomes

  1. The proportion of participants who reached EASI-75

    Time frame: Week 24&Week 52

  2. The proportion of participants who reached EASI-50

    Time frame: Week16、Week24、Week52

  3. The proportion of participants who achieved EASI-90

    Time frame: Week16、Week24、Week52

  4. The change in the EASI score compared to the baseline

    The Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) score is an assessment tool used to evaluate the severity of atopic dermatitis (AD) and the extent of affected skin lesions. The score of EASI ranges from 0 to 72, with a higher score indicating a more severe disease condition.

    Time frame: Week16、Week24、Week52

  5. The overall assessment by the researchers - the proportion of participants who achieved treatment success (IGA-TS, with an IGA score of 0 or 1 and a reduction of ≥ 2 points from the baseline)

    The Investigator's Global Assessment Scale for Atopic Dermatitis (IGA) is a 5-point classification scale based on the overall appearance of skin lesions at a specific time point (0 = cleared; 1 = largely cleared; 2 = mild; 3 = moderate; 4 = severe). It is evaluated by the researchers.

    Time frame: Week16、Week24、Week52

  6. Percentage change in the body surface area affected (BSA) from the baseline

    Time frame: Week16、Week24、Week52

  7. The proportion of participants whose weekly average score on the Peak Pruritus Numerical Rating Scale (PP-NRS) decreased by ≥ 3 points compared to the baseline

    The Pruritus Numerical Rating Scale (PP-NRS) is used to allow participants to report the severity of their pruritus over the past 24 hours. The most severe pruritus is represented by a single-item NRS, with a score range of 0 to 10. Participants are required to use the scale to evaluate the intensity of their most severe pruritus, with 10 representing the highest level of pruritus.

    Time frame: Week2、Week16、Week24、Week52

Started Sep 2026 (actual). Primary completion is estimated for Jul 2028, 21 months after the start.

Of 149 industry-sponsored phase 3 interventional studies under Dermatitis, Atopic, half reached primary completion within 18 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 13 and three quarters within 28. This study's planned 21 months is above that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 156 studies reached it within 18 months; a quarter within 13 and three quarters within 28.

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.
