A Phase 3 Study of LNK01001 Capsule in Subjects With Moderate to Severe Atopic Dermatitis.

This study includes a 35-day screening period; a 16-week randomized, placebo-controlled treatment period (Period 1); a 36-week long-term extension period (Period 2); and a 28 to 35-day follow-up period (FU).

Participants who meet eligibility criteria will be randomized in a 2:2:1:1 ratio to four treatment groups:

Group 1: LNK01001 12 mg BID (Day 1 to Week 16)， LNK01001 12 mg BID (Week 16 and thereafter) Group 2: LNK01001 24 mg BID (Day 1 to Week 16)， LNK01001 24 mg BID (Week 16 and thereafter) Group 3: Placebo (Day 1 to Week 16)， LNK01001 12 mg BID (Week 16 and thereafter) Group 4: Placebo (Day 1 to Week 16)， LNK01001 24 mg BID (Week 16 and thereafter)

Starting at Week 4, rescue therapy is allowed if medically necessary and the following parameters are met:

At Week 4 through Week 24: subjects with < 50% reduction in EASI response at any two consecutive scheduled visits, compared to the Baseline EASI score.

After Week 24: subjects with < 50% reduction in EASI at any scheduled or unscheduled visit, compared to the Baseline EASI score.

Starting at Week 16, the use of any concomitant topical medication for atopic dermatitis can be administered per the investigator's discretion and will no longer be considered as rescue therapy for analysis.
