What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Percentage of Participants Achieving Eczema Area and Severity Index 75 (EASI75) (Placebo, 2 mg or 4 mg Baricitinib)

    The EASI assesses objective physician estimates of 2 dimensions of atopic dermatitis - disease extent and clinical signs affected: 0 = 0%; 1 = 1-9%; 2 = 10-29%; 3 = 30-49%; 4 = 50-69%; 5 = 70-89%; 6 = 90-100% and the severity of 4 clinical signs: (1) erythema, (2) edema/papulation, (3) excoriation, and (4) lichenification each on a scale of 0 to 3 (0 = none, absent; 1 = mild; 2 = moderate; 3 = severe) at 4 body sites (head/neck, trunk, upper limbs, and lower limbs). Half scores are allowed between severities 1, 2, and 3. The final EASI score was obtained by weight-averaging these 4 scores and will range from 0 (no disease) to 72 (severe disease). The EASI75 is defined as a ≥ 75% improvement from baseline in the EASI score.

    Measured: Week 16

Secondary outcomes (46)
  1. Percentage of Participants Achieving EASI75 (Placebo, 1 mg Baricitinib)

    The EASI assesses objective physician estimates of 2 dimensions of atopic dermatitis - disease extent and clinical signs affected: 0 = 0%; 1 = 1-9%; 2 = 10-29%; 3 = 30-49%; 4 = 50-69%; 5 = 70-89%; 6 = 90-100% and the severity of 4 clinical signs: (1) erythema, (2) edema/papulation, (3) excoriation, and (4) lichenification each on a scale of 0 to 3 (0 = none, absent; 1 = mild; 2 = moderate; 3 = severe) at 4 body sites (head/neck, trunk, upper limbs, and lower limbs). Half scores are allowed between severities 1, 2, and 3. The final EASI score was obtained by weight-averaging these 4 scores and will range from 0 (no disease) to 72 (severe disease). The EASI75 is defined as a ≥ 75% improvement from baseline in the EASI score.

    Missing values were imputed using Non-Responder Imputation (NRI), where non-responders were participants who permanently discontinue, are rescued, or are without at least 1 post-baseline observation.

    Measured: Week 16

  2. Percentage of Participants Achieving IGA of 0 or 1 With a ≥ 2 Point Improvement

    The IGA measures the investigator's global assessment of the participant's overall severity of their AD, based on a static, numeric 5-point scale from 0 (clear skin) to 4 (severe disease). The score is based on an overall assessment of the degree of erythema, papulation/induration, oozing/crusting, and lichenification.

    Measured: Week 16

  3. Percentage of Participants Achieving EASI90

    The EASI assesses objective physician estimates of 2 dimensions of atopic dermatitis - disease extent and clinical signs affected: 0 = 0%; 1 = 1-9%; 2 = 10-29%; 3 = 30-49%; 4 = 50-69%; 5 = 70-89%; 6 = 90-100% and the severity of 4 clinical signs: (1) erythema, (2) edema/papulation, (3) excoriation, and (4) lichenification each on a scale of 0 to 3 (0 = none, absent; 1 = mild; 2 = moderate; 3 = severe) at 4 body sites (head/neck, trunk, upper limbs, and lower limbs). Half scores are allowed between severities 1, 2, and 3. The final EASI score was obtained by weight-averaging these 4 scores and will range from 0 (no disease) to 72 (severe disease). The EASI90 is defined as a ≥ 90% improvement from baseline in the EASI score.

    Measured: Week 16

  4. Percent Change From Baseline in EASI Score

    The EASI assesses objective physician estimates of 2 dimensions of atopic dermatitis - disease extent and clinical signs affected: 0 = 0%; 1 = 1-9%; 2 = 10-29%; 3 = 30-49%; 4 = 50-69%; 5 = 70-89%; 6 = 90-100% and the severity of 4 clinical signs: (1) erythema, (2) edema/papulation, (3) excoriation, and (4) lichenification each on a scale of 0 to 3 (0 = none, absent; 1 = mild; 2 = moderate; 3 = severe) at 4 body sites (head/neck, trunk, upper limbs, and lower limbs). Half scores are allowed between severities 1, 2, and 3. The final EASI score was obtained by weight-averaging these 4 scores and will range from 0 (no disease) to 72 (severe disease).

    Least Squares Mean (LSM) were calculated using mixed model repeated measures (MMRM) model with treatment, region, baseline disease severity (IGA), visit, and treatment-by-visit-interaction as fixed categorical effects and baseline score and baseline score-by-visit-interaction as fixed continuous effects.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 16

  5. Percentage of Participants Achieving SCORing Atopic Dermatitis 75 (SCORAD75)

    The SCORAD index uses the rule of nines to assess disease extent and evaluates 6 clinical characteristics to determine disease severity: (1) erythema, (2) edema/papulation, (3)oozing/crusts, (4) excoriation, (5) lichenification, and (6) dryness on a scale of 0 to 3 (0=absence, 1=mild, 2=moderate, 3=severe). The SCORAD index also assesses subjective symptoms of pruritus and sleep loss with a visual analogue scales (VAS) where 0 is no itching or no trouble sleeping and 10 is unbearable itching or a lot of trouble sleeping. These 3 aspects: extent of disease (A: 0-1-2), disease severity (B: 0-18), \& subjective symptoms (C: 0-20) combine using A/5 + 7*B/2+ C to give a maximum possible score of 103, where 0 = no disease and 103 = severe disease.

    The SCORAD75 responder is defined as a participant who achieves a ≥ 75% improvement from baseline in the SCORAD score.

    Measured: Week 16

  6. Percentage of Participants Achieving a 4-Point Improvement in Itch Numeric Rating Scale (NRS)

    The Itch NRS is a participant-administered, 11-point horizontal scale anchored at 0 and 10, with 0 representing "no itch" and 10 representing "worst itch imaginable." Overall severity of a participant's itching is indicated by selecting the number, using a daily diary, that best describes the worst level of itching in the past 24 hours.

    Measured: Week 16

  7. Change From Baseline in the Score of Item 2 of the Atopic Dermatitis Sleep Scale (ADSS)

    The ADSS is a 3-item, participant-administered questionnaire developed to assess the impact of itch on sleep including difficulty falling asleep due to itch, frequency of waking due to itch, and difficulty getting back to sleep last night due to itch. Item 2 frequency of waking last night is reported by selecting the number of times they woke up each night, ranging from 0 to 29 times, where the higher a number indicates a worse outcome. The ADSS is designed to be completed daily, using a daily diary, with respondents thinking about sleep "last night." Each item is scored individually.

    LS Mean were calculated using an MMRM model with treatment, region, baseline disease severity (IGA), visit, and treatment-by-visit-interaction as fixed categorical and baseline and baseline-by-visit-interaction as fixed continuous effects.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 16

  8. Change From Baseline in Skin Pain NRS

    Skin Pain NRS is a participant-administered,11-point horizontal scale anchored at 0 and 10, with 0 representing "no pain" and 10 representing "worst pain imaginable." Overall severity of a participant's skin pain is indicated by selecting the number, using a daily diary, that best describes the worst level of skin pain in the past 24 hours.

    LS Mean were calculated using MMRM model includes treatment, region, baseline disease severity (IGA), visit, and treatment-by-visit-interaction as fixed categorical effects and baseline and baseline-by-visit-interaction as fixed continuous effects.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Percentage of Participants Achieving Eczema Area and Severity Index 75 (EASI75) (Placebo, 2 mg or 4 mg Baricitinib) (time frame: Week 16). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03428100, which also lists 2 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
