Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- IGA Success, defined as a vIGA-AD score of ‘clear’ or ‘almost clear’ PLUS a 2-grade improvement from Baseline at Week 4. [ Time Frame: Week 4 ]
The vIGA-AD is a static evaluation of qualitative overall AD severity. This global assessment scale is an ordinal scale with five severity grades (reported only in integers of 0 to 4 where 0 is clear).
Secondary Outcome Measures
- In subjects with vIGA-AD score of ‘Moderate’ at randomization, IGA Success at Week 4 [ Time Frame: Week 4 ]
IGA Success, defined as a vIGA-AD score of ‘clear’ or ‘almost clear’ PLUS a 2-grade improvement from Baseline. The vIGA-AD is a static evaluation of qualitative overall AD severity. This global assessment scale is an ordinal scale with five severity grades (reported only in integers of 0 to 4 where 0 is clear).
- In subjects with vIGA-AD score of ‘Moderate’ at randomization, achievement of at least 75% reduction in the Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI-75) at Week 4 [ Time Frame: Week 4 ]
EASI combines the assessment of the severity of lesions and the area affected into a single total score in the range 0 (no disease) to 72 (maximal disease). To calculate the EASI, the sum of the severity rating (0 to 3 with 3 being the most severe) for four clinical signs are multiplied with the numerical value of the area affected and with the percentage of the four body areas.
- In subjects with vIGA-AD score of ‘Moderate’ at randomization, vIGA-AD score of ‘clear’ or ‘almost clear’ at Week 4 [ Time Frame: Week 4 ]
The vIGA-AD is a static evaluation of qualitative overall AD severity. This global assessment scale is an ordinal scale with five severity grades (reported only in integers of 0 to 4 where 0 is clear).
- vIGA-AD success at Week 2 [ Time Frame: Week 2 ]
The vIGA-AD is a static evaluation of qualitative overall AD severity. This global assessment scale is an ordinal scale with five severity grades (reported only in integers of 0 to 4 where 0 is clear).
- vIGA-AD success at Week 1 [ Time Frame: Week 1 ]
The vIGA-AD is a static evaluation of qualitative overall AD severity. This global assessment scale is an ordinal scale with five severity grades (reported only in integers of 0 to 4 where 0 is clear).
- vIGA-AD of ‘clear’ or ‘almost ‘clear’ at Week 2 [ Time Frame: Week 2 ]
The vIGA-AD is a static evaluation of qualitative overall AD severity. This global assessment scale is an ordinal scale with five severity grades (reported only in integers of 0 to 4 where 0 is clear).
- vIGA-AD of ‘clear’ or ‘almost ‘clear’ at Week 1 [ Time Frame: Week 1 ]
The vIGA-AD is a static evaluation of qualitative overall AD severity. This global assessment scale is an ordinal scale with five severity grades (reported only in integers of 0 to 4 where 0 is clear).

- Males and females, ages 2 to 5 years old at time of signing Informed Consent (Screening) and at Baseline (Day 1).
- Diagnosed with atopic dermatitis for at least 6 weeks, as determined by the Investigator. Stable disease for the past 4 weeks with no significant flares in atopic dermatitis before screening.
- In good health as judged by the Investigator.
- Subjects considered reliable and capable of adhering to the Protocol and visit schedule, according to the judgment of the Investigator.
Exclusion Criteria
