Study to Investigate Efficacy and Safety of PF-04965842 in Subjects Aged 12 Years and Over With Moderate to Severe Atopic Dermatitis With the Option of Rescue Treatment in Flaring Subjects

B7451014 is a Phase 3 study to investigate PF-04965842 in patients aged 12 years and over with a minimum body weight of 40 kg who have moderate to severe atopic dermatitis. Subjects responding well to an initial open-label 12 week treatment of PF-04965842 (200 mg) taken orally once daily (QD) will be identified and randomized in a double-blind manner to receive 200 mg QD PF-04965842, 100 mg QD PF-04965842, or QD placebo. Efficacy and safety of 2 doses of PF-04965842 will be evaluated relative to placebo over 40 weeks. Subjects experiencing significant worsening of their symptoms, i.e., protocol-defined flare, enter 12 weeks rescue treatment and receive 200 mg PF-04965842 together with a marketed topical medicine. Eligible patients will have the option to enter a long-term extension study after completing the initial 12 week treatment, the 12 week rescue treatment, and the 40 week blinded treatment.

Primary outcomes

  1. Percentage of Participants With Loss of Response: Double-blind (DB) Period

    Time frame: From Day 1 of up to Week 40 of double blind period

    Percentage of participants with loss of response requiring rescue treatment during double blind period was determined. Loss of response denoted as flare and was define as a loss of at least 50% of EASI total score at Week 12 and with an IGA score of 2 or higher. EASI quantifies severity of participant's atopic dermatitis (AD) based on both severity of lesion clinical signs and % of body surface area (BSA) affected. EASI is a composite scoring by AD clinical evaluator of degree of erythema, induration/papulation, excoriation, and lichenification for each of 4 body regions. EASI total score range from 0.0 to 72.0, with higher scores representing greater severity of AD. IGA assesses severity of AD on 5-point scale (0 to 4, higher scores = more severity), reflecting global consideration of erythema, induration and scaling. Where, 0 = clear; 1 = almost clear; 2 = mild; 3 = moderate and 4 = severe.

  2. Time to Loss of Response: Double-blind Period

    Time frame: From date of first dose of randomized treatment until the last dose of randomized treatment (if not entered rescue) or first day of rescue treatment (if entered rescue) (maximum up to Week 40, visit window was extended +/- 45 Days due to COVID 19)

    Time (in days) to loss of response based on achieving IGA >=2 was measured from date of first dose of randomized treatment until last dose of randomized treatment (if not entered rescue) or first day of rescue treatment (if entered rescue) and based on EASI, loss of at least 50% of EASI response at Week 12 and IGA score of 2 or higher. IGA assesses severity of AD on 5-point scale (0 to 4, higher scores=more severity), reflecting global consideration of erythema, induration and scaling with scores 0 = clear; 1 = almost clear; 2 = mild; 3 = moderate; 4 = severe. EASI quantifies severity of AD based on severity of lesion clinical signs and % of BSA affected. EASI composite score evaluates degree of erythema, induration/papulation, excoriation, and lichenification.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Time to First Loss of Response Based on Investigator's Global Assessment (IGA) Score of 2 or Higher: Double-blind Period

Where, 0 = clear, AD is cleared; 1 = almost clear, AD not entirely cleared, light pink residual lesions; 2 = mild, AD with light red lesions; 3 = moderate, AD with red lesions; 4 = severe, AD with deep, dark red lesions.

    CDLQI is a 10-item questionnaire that measures the impact of skin disease on adolescents (aged 12-17 years) quality of life over the last week. Each question was evaluated on a 4-point scale (range 0 to 3) where, 0 = not at all , 1 = only a little, 2 = quite a lot, 3 = very much, where higher scores indicated more impact on quality of life. Scores from all 10 questions were added up to give CDLQI total score range from 0 (not at all) to 30 (very much). Higher scores indicated more impact on quality of life of children.

  23. Change From Baseline in Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) - Anxiety Scale at Weeks 12, 16, 28, 40 and 52: Double-blind Period

    Time frame: Baseline, Weeks 12, 16, 28, 40 and 52

    HADS: participant rated 14-item questionnaire. HADS consisted of 2 subscales: HADS-Anxiety (HADS-A) scale and HADS-Depression (HADS-D) scale, both of these subscales comprised of 7 items each. Each item was rated on a 4-point scale, score range from 0 to 3, where higher scores indicates more anxiety/depression symptoms. HADS-A assesses state of generalized anxiety (anxious mood, restlessness, anxious thoughts, panic attacks). HADS-A: sum of all 7 items resulted in score range of 0 (no presence of anxiety) to 21 (severe feeling of anxiety); higher score indicating greater severity of anxiety.

  24. Change From Baseline in Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) - Depression Scale at Weeks 12, 16, 28, 40 and 52: Double-blind Period

    Time frame: Baseline, Weeks 12, 16, 28, 40 and 52

    HADS: participant rated 14-item questionnaire. HADS consisted of 2 subscales: HADS-A scale and HADS-D scale, both of these subscales comprised of 7 items each. Each item was rated on a 4-point scale, score range from 0 to 3, where higher scores indicates more anxiety/depression symptoms. HADS-D assesses state of lost interest and diminished pleasure response (lowering of hedonic tone). HADS-D: sum of all 7 items resulted in score range of 0 (no presence of depression) to 21 (severe feeling of depression); higher score indicating greater severity of depression symptoms.

  25. Change From Baseline in Patient Oriented Eczema Measure (POEM) Score at Weeks 12, 16, 28, 40 and 52: Double-blind Period

    Time frame: Baseline, Weeks 12, 16, 28, 40 and 52

    POEM was a 7-item participant reported outcome (PRO) measure used to assess the impact of AD (dryness, itching, flaking, cracking, sleep loss, bleeding and weeping) over the past week. Each item scored as following: no days = 0, 1-2 days = 1, 3-4 days = 2, 5-6 days = 3 and, every day = 4. The total POEM score ranges from 0 to 28, where higher score indicated greater severity.

  26. Change From Baseline in Pruritus and Symptoms Assessment for Atopic Dermatitis (PSAAD) Score at Weeks 12, 16, 28, 40 and 52: Double-blind Period

    Time frame: Baseline, Weeks 12, 16, 28, 40 and 52

    PSAAD is a daily participant reported symptom electronic diary. Participants rated their symptoms of AD over the past 24 hours, using 11 items (itchy skin, painful skin, dry skin, flaky skin, cracked skin, bumpy skin, red skin, discolored skin [darker or lighter], bleeding from skin, seeping or oozing fluid from skin [other than blood], and skin swelling). Participants had to think about all the areas of their body affected by their skin condition and chose the number that best described their experience for each of the 11 items, from 0 (no symptoms) to 10 (extreme symptoms), higher scores signified worse skin condition. Total PSAAD score = arithmetic mean of 11 items, 0 (no symptoms) to 10 (extreme symptoms), where higher score = worse skin condition.
