Primary outcomes

  1. Percent Change From Baseline to Week 16 in Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) Score

    Time frame: Baseline to Week 16

    In the EASI assessment, the severity of 4 elements of eczema (erythema, induration/papulation, excoriation, and lichenification) at each of 4 body regions (head and neck, trunk, upper extremities, and lower extremities) will be assessed on a scale of 0 to 3 (0 = None , 1 = Mild, 2 = Moderate, 3 = Severe). Half scores (1.5 and 2.5) are allowed, with the exception of 0.5. Any signs must be at least 1 (mild) in severity. In addition, the extent of eczema at each of the 4 body regions will be assessed on a scale of 0 to 6 (0 = 0%, 1 = 1% to 9%, 2 = 10% to 29%, 3 = 30% to 49%, 4 = 50% to 69%, 5 = 70% to 89%, 6 = 90% to 100%). Scores calculated according to the expression "total score of 4 elements of eczema × area score of eczema" will be multiplied by 0.1 for head and neck, 0.2 for upper extremities, 0.3 for trunk, and 0.4 for lower extremities. The 4 region scores obtained will then be summed up (maximum score: 72) as EASI score.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Achievement of 50%, 75%, or 90% Reduction From Baseline in Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) Score (EASI-50, EASI-75, or EASI-90) at Week 16

  3. Change From Baseline to Week 16 in SCORing Atopic Dermatitis (SCORAD) Score

    Time frame: Baseline to Week 16

    In the SCORAD assessment, the extent of AD will be calculated as the sum of the percentage of each defined body area, with a maximum score of 100% (assigned as "A" in the overall SCORAD calculation). The severity of 6 specific symptoms of AD will be assessed using the following scale: 0 = none, 1 = mild, 2 = moderate, 3 = severe, with a maximum score of 18 (assigned as "B" in the overall SCORAD calculation). Itch and sleeplessness will be assessed by subjects on a visual analogue scale (VAS), where 0 is no itch (or sleeplessness) and 10 is the worst imaginable itch (or sleeplessness), with a maximum score of 20 (assigned as "C" in the overall SCORAD calculation). The SCORAD score is calculated as A/5 + 7B/2 + C. The maximum possible SCORAD score is 103; higher scores indicate poorer or more severe condition.
