This is a double-blind, placebo-controlled study where subjects are participating for approximately 36 to 40 weeks. The study compares how well BFB759 works and how safe it is compared with a placebo.
- Conditions
- Atopic Dermatitis (AD)
- Being tested
- BFB759, Placebo
- Keywords
- Atopic Dermatitis, Eczema
- Medical subject headings
- Dermatitis, Atopic, Eczema
What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
BFB759Biological
BFB759 is a human mAb that inhibits multiple pro-inflammatory cytokines that contribute to the pathogenesis of multiple disease processes characterized by aberrant inflammation, including atopic dermatitis
PlaceboDrug
Placebo for BFB759
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Active - high dose | Experimental | BFB759 high dose Day 1 followed by BFB759 every 2 weeks (Q2W) starting at Week 2 through Week 14 (inclusive), which is followed by placebo Q2W at Weeks 16 through 30 (inclusive) Receives: Biological: BFB759 |
| Placebo | Placebo comparator | Placebo Q2W for 14 weeks. At Week 16, participants in Placebo group who are still enrolled in the study and receiving treatment will be re-randomized (1:1) into two groups (Cross-1 or Cross-2) to receive BFB759 intervention.
* Cross-1 will receive BFB759 at Week 16, and then BFB759 Q2W at Week 18 through Week 30 (inclusive).
* Cross-2 will receive BFB759 at Week 16, and then BFB759 Q2W at Week 18 through Week 30 (inclusive). Receives: Biological: BFB759; Drug: Placebo |
| Active - low dose | Experimental | BFB759 low dose on Day 1 followed by BFB759 every 2 weeks (Q2W) starting at Week 2 through Week 14 (inclusive), which is followed by placebo Q2W at Weeks 16 through 30 (inclusive) Receives: Biological: BFB759 |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Efficacy of BFB759 in AD
To evaluate the efficacy of BFB759 in adult male and female participants with AD as assessed by Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) score. Measure improvements in redness, swelling, scratching damage, and roughness.
Measured: week 16 and week 32
Secondary outcomes (3)
How well the treatment works at Week 16
- How many participants had at least a 50%, 75%, or 90% improvement in their eczema signs.
- How much the severity and size of eczema-affected areas improved.
- Whether participants felt less itchy.
- How many participants had a drop of 4 or more points in their itch score (especially for those who started with a higher itch level).
Measured: Week 16
How well the treatment works at week 32
- How much eczema signs changed from Week 16.
- How many participants had a 50%, 75%, or 90% improvement since Week 16.
- Changes in eczema severity and itch compared to Week 16.
- How many people had a 4-point drop in their itch score (again, only among those who had higher itch scores at Week 16).
Measured: Week 32
Safety and tolerability
- record side effects and severity
- record how well participants tolerate the treatment over time
Measured: 21 months (about 22 visits during the course of study)
