This is an interventional treatment trial for Atopic Dermatitis

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - 48 Years (Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Atopic dermatitis as defined by a score of at least 9 on the Nottingham Eczema Severity Score, stratified into moderate (score 9 to 11 inclusive) and severe (score 12 to 15 inclusive) disease.
  2. Fully documented history of the use of topical corticosteroids (TCS) and/or topical calcineurin inhibitors (TCI). Subjects without a fully documented history will be excluded from the study.
  3. Male and female subjects with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis treated with by TCS and/or TCI (with or without emollients) at the time of screening and over the previous month.
  4. Subjects must have had at least 1 AD flare in the previous 6 months.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Receipt of any forbidden medication including over the counter preparations and herbal medicines within 14 days of the first dosing day with the exception of paracetamol up to a maximum of 2g daily.
  2. Use of systemic steroids within 4 weeks of the screening visit, light therapy or immunosuppressants within 2 months of the screening visit.
  3. Use of NSAIDs.
  4. Subjects initially diagnosed with AD aged 2 years or over will be excluded unless they have either coexisting or a history of asthma and/or allergic rhinoconjunctivitis.
  5. Subjects with contact dermatitis will be excluded.
  6. Subjects with acute skin infection or acute disease flares. Subjects with active flares during the screening to randomisation period (visits 1 to 2) may be managed according to normal clinical practice and be rescreened once their flares are no longer active.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Change From Baseline in Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) Compared to Placebo at Week 16
The EASI scoring system uses a defined process to grade the severity of the signs of eczema and the extent affected in four regions of the body: head and neck, trunk, upper extremities and lower extremities. The scale ranges from 0 to 72 and the severity strata for the EASI are as follows: 0 clear; 0.1-1.0 almost clear; 1.1-7.0 mild; 7.1-21.0 =moderate; 21.1-50.0 severe; 50.1-72.0 very severe. When assessing response to therapy a reduction of 7 or more is considered to be clinically meaningful.
