Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Male or female subjects aged ≥12<18 years old, weight ≥ 30kg.
  • AD diagnosed at least half a year before screening.
  • Subject with EASI score ≥16, IGA ≥ 3, BSA ≥ 10% at screening and baseline
  • Daily peak P-NRS scores (weekly average) at baseline visit ≥ 4.

Exclusion criteria

  • Acute onset of AD in 4 weeks prior to enrollment.
  • Undergone or planned surgery during the study period within the 4 weeks prior to enrollment, or unable to fully recover from surgery before enrollment.
  • Previously suffered from vernal keratoconjunctivitis (VKC) or atopic keratoconjunctivitis (AKC).

Treatment and study plan

Placebo

Drug

placebo subcutaneous injection Q2W until week 46.

Primary outcomes

  1. Percentage of subjects who achieved Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI)-75

    Time frame: at week 18 (day 127)

    At week 18, the percentage of subjects who achieved EASI-75 compared to baseline. The EASI score ranges from 0 (no eczema) to 72 (maximum severity).

  2. Percentage of subjects with the Investigator's Global Assessment (IGA) score decrease of ≥ 2 points

    Time frame: at week 18 (day 127)

    At week 18, the percentage of subjects with the IGA score decrease of ≥ 2 points from baseline. The IGA is a five-point scale ranging from 0 to 4 ( 0 indicates clear, 4 indicates severe).

Secondary outcomes

  1. Percentage change in affected Body Surface Area (BSA)

    Time frame: week 0 to week 52

    Percentage change in BSA from baseline.

  2. percentage change of Peak Pruritus Numerical Rating Scale (P-NRS) scores

    Time frame: week 0 to week 52

    percentage change of P-NRS scores from baseline at each visit. The scale ranging from 0 to 10 ( 0=no itch; 10=worst itch imaginable).

  3. Percentage changes in the Children's Dermatology Life Quality Index (CDLQI) score

    Time frame: week 0 to week 52

    Percentage changes in the CDLQI score compared to baseline at each visit. The total score range from 0 to 30, with higher scores indicating a greater impact on the patient's quality of life.

  4. Incidence of Adverse Events (AE)

    Time frame: week 0 to week 52

    An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered a pharmaceutical product temporally associated with the use of study treatment, whether or not considered related to the study treatment.
