What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Percentage of Participants With an Investigator Global Assessment (IGA) Score of 0 or 1 and a Reduction ≥2 Points From Baseline to Week 16
The IGA measures the investigator's global assessment of the participant's overall severity of their Atopic Dermatitis (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: Baseline to Week 16
Percentage of Participants Achieving Eczema Area And Severity Index (EASI-75) (≥75% Reduction in EASI Score) From Baseline to Week 16
The EASI assesses objective physician estimates of 2 dimensions of atopic dermatitis - disease extent, i.e., percentage of skin 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-75 score was obtained by weight-averaging these 4 scores and will range from 0 (none) to 72 (severe).
The EASI-75 responder is defined as a participant who achieves a ≥ 75% improvement from baseline in the EASI score.
Measured: Baseline to Week 16

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 (none) to 72 (severe).
LS Mean was calculated using ANCOVA model with treatment, stratification factors of geographic region, age group, baseline IGA score (IGA 3 versus 4) as fixed factors baseline value as covariate.
Measured: Baseline, Week 16
Change From Baseline in Percent Body Surface Area (BSA) at Week 16
The BSA affected by AD will be assessed for 4 separate body regions: head and neck, trunk (including genital region), upper extremities, and lower extremities (including the buttocks). Each body region will be assessed for disease extent ranging from 0% to 100% involvement. BSA was calculated using the participant's palm using the 1% rule, 1 palm was equivalent to 1% with estimates of the number of palms it takes to cover the affected AD area. Maximum number of palms were 10 palms for head and neck (10%), 20 palms for upper extremities (20%), 30 palms for trunk, including axilla and groin (30%), 40 palms for lower extremities, including buttocks (40%). Percent of BSA for a body region was calculated as = total number of palms in a body region * % surface area equivalent to 1 palm. Overall percent BSA of all 4 body regions ranges from 0% to 100 % with higher values representing greater severity of AD.
Measured: Baseline, Week 16

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 (none) to 72 (severe).
The EASI-90 responder is defined as a participant who achieves a ≥ 90% improvement from baseline in the EASI score.
Measured: Baseline to Week 4
Change From Baseline in Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) at Week 16
The DLQI is a 10-item, validated questionnaire used to assess the impact of skin disease on the quality of life of an affected person. The 10 questions cover the following topics: symptoms, embarrassment, shopping and home care, clothes, social and leisure, sport, work or study, close relationships, sex, and treatment, over the previous week. Response categories include "Not at all," "A little," "A lot," and "Very much," with corresponding scores of 0, 1, 2, and 3 respectively.

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 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.
LS Mean was calculated using the ANCOVA model with treatment group and stratification factors of geographic region, age group, baseline IGA (3 versus 4) score as fixed factors and baseline value as covariate.
Measured: Baseline, Week 16
Pharmacokinetics (PK): Average Serum Concentration of Lebrikizumab at Week 52
PK: Average serum concentration of lebrikizumab at the Week 52 trough timepoint. Serum concentration is a combined measure obtained from Baseline, Week 4, Week 16, Week 32, Week 52 and average measure was reported at week 52.
Measured: Predose: Baseline, Week 4, Week 16, Week 32, Week 52
Percentage of Participants From Those Re-randomized Having Achieved EASI-75 at Week 16 Who Continued to Exhibit EASI-75 at Week 52 (EASI-75 Calculated Relative to Baseline EASI Score)
The EASI assesses objective physician estimates of 2 dimensions of atopic dermatitis - disease extent, i.e., percentage of skin 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-75 score was obtained by weight-averaging these 4 scores and will range from 0 (none) to 72 (severe).
The EASI-75 responder is defined as a participant who achieves a ≥ 75% improvement from baseline in the EASI score.
Measured: Baseline to Week 52
Percentage of Participants From Those Re-randomized Having Achieved IGA 0 or 1 and a ≥2-point Improvement From Baseline at Week 16 Who Continue to Exhibit and IGA 0 or 1 and a ≥2-point Improvement From Baseline at Week 52
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: Baseline to Week 52
Percentage of Participants From Those With a Pruritus NRS of ≥4-points at Baseline Re-randomized Having Achieved ≥4-point Reduction From Baseline at Week 16 Who Continue to Exhibit ≥4-point Reduction From Baseline at Week 52
Pruritus NRS is an 11-point scale used by participants to rate their worst itch severity over the past 24 hours with 0 indicating "No itch" and 10 indicating "Worst itch imaginable."
Measured: Baseline to Week 52
Percentage of Participants From Those With a Pruritus NRS of ≥5-points at Baseline Re-randomized Having Achieved ≥4-point Reduction From Baseline at Week 16 Who Continue to Exhibit ≥4-point Reduction From Baseline at Week 52
Pruritus NRS is an 11-point scale used by participants to rate their worst itch severity over the past 24 hours with 0 indicating "No itch" and 10 indicating "Worst itch imaginable."
Measured: Baseline to Week 52
Percent Change in SCORAD (Having Achieved EASI-75 at Week 16) From Baseline at Week 52
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 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. LS mean was calculated using ANCOVA model with treatment group, baseline value, and stratification factors geographic region, age group, baseline IGA (3 versus 4) score as fixed factors and baseline value as covariate.

Change From Baseline in European Quality of Life-5 Dimensions-5 Levels (EQ-5D-5L) at Week 16 - Health State Index
The EQ-5D-5L is a 2-part measurement. The first part is comprised of the following 5 participant-reported dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression. Each dimension has 5 levels: no problems, slight problems, moderate problems, severe problems, and extreme problems. The responses are used to derive the health state index scores using the United Kingdom (UK) algorithm, with scores ranging from -0.594 to 1, and the United States (US) algorithm, with scores ranging from -0.109 to 1, with higher score indicating better health state.
LS Mean was calculated using the ANCOVA model with treatment and stratification factors of geographic region, age group, baseline IGA (3 versus 4) score as fixed factors and baseline value as covariate.
Measured: Baseline, Week 16
Change From Baseline in EQ-5D-5L at Week 16 - Visual Analog Scale (VAS)
The EQ-5D-5L is a 2-part measurement. The second part is assessed using a VAS that ranged from 0 to 100 millimeter (mm), where 0 is the worst health you can imagine and 100 is the best health you can imagine. LS Mean was calculated using the ANCOVA model with treatment and stratification factors of geographic region, age group, baseline IGA (3 versus 4) score as fixed factors and baseline value as covariate.
Measured: Baseline, Week 16
Change From Baseline in Patient Oriented Eczema Measure (POEM) at Week 16
POEM is a 7-item, validated, questionnaire used by the participant to assess disease symptoms over the last week. The participant is asked to respond to 7 questions on skin dryness, itching, flaking, cracking, sleep loss, bleeding and weeping. All 7 answers carry equal weight with a total possible score from 0 to 28 (answers scored as: No days=0; 1# 2 days = 1; 3-4 days = 2; 5#6 days = 3; everyday = 4). A high score is indicative of a poor quality of life. POEM responses will be captured using an electronic diary and transferred into the clinical database. LS Mean was calculated using MMRM model using treatment, baseline value, visit, the interaction of the baseline value-by-visit, the interaction of treatment by-visit as covariates, geographic region, age group, baseline IGA (3 versus 4) score as fixed.

Change From Baseline in Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ-5) Score at Week 16 in Participants Who Have Self-Reported Comorbid Asthma
The ACQ-5 is a five-item, self-completed questionnaire, which is used as a measure of asthma control of a participant. The five questions (concerning nocturnal awakening, waking in the morning, activity limitation, shortness of breath and wheeze) enquire about the frequency and/or severity of symptoms over the previous week. The response options for all these questions range from zero (no impairment/limitation) to six (total impairment/ limitation) scale. The ACQ-5 score is the average of the individual item scores and ranges from 0 (totally controlled) to 6 (severely uncontrolled). Higher scores indicate lower asthma control.
LS Mean was calculated using ANCOVA with treatment, geographic region, age group, baseline IGA (3 versus 4) score as fixed factors and baseline value as covariate.
Measured: Baseline, Week 16
Change From Baseline in Children's Dermatology Life Quality Index (CDLQI) at Week 16 - Adolescents
The CDLQI questionnaire is designed for use in children (4 to 16 years of age). It consists of 10 items that are grouped into 6 domains: symptoms \& feelings, leisure, school or holidays, personal relationships, sleep, \& treatment. The scoring of each question is: Very much =3; Quite a lot = 2; Only a little = 1; Not at all = 0. CDLQI total score is calculated by summing all 10 items responses and has a range of 0 to 30 (higher scores are indicative of greater impairment).
LS Mean was calculated using MMRM model which includes treatment, baseline value, visit, the interaction of the baseline value-by-visit as covariates, the interaction of treatment by-visit, geographic region, age group, and baseline IGA (3 versus 4) score as fixed factors.

Primary outcome
Percentage of Participants With an Investigator Global Assessment (IGA) Score of 0 or 1 and a Reduction ≥2 Points From Baseline to Week 16
Time frame: Baseline to Week 16
The IGA measures the investigator's global assessment of the participant's overall severity of their Atopic Dermatitis (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.
Percentage of Participants Achieving Eczema Area And Severity Index (EASI-75) (≥75% Reduction in EASI Score) From Baseline to Week 16
Time frame: Baseline to Week 16
The EASI assesses objective physician estimates of 2 dimensions of atopic dermatitis - disease extent, i.e., percentage of skin 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-75 score was obtained by weight-averaging these 4 scores and will range from 0 (none) to 72 (severe). The EASI-75 responder is defined as a participant who achieves a ≥ 75% improvement from baseline in the EASI score.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing Lebrikizumab in people with Atopic Dermatitis, run by Eli Lilly and Company at 94 sites in 10 countries.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 15 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Nov 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 94 sites in United States, Poland, Australia, South Korea, Lithuania and 5 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
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.
Are results available for this study?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 29 Aug 2022). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
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 With an Investigator Global Assessment (IGA) Score of 0 or 1 and a Reduction ≥2 Points From Baseline to Week 16 (time frame: Baseline to Week 16). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT04146363, which also lists 12 linked publications.
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 30 Nov 2022.
