E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
To evaluate the efficacy of tralokinumab compared with placebo in treating moderate-to-severe Atopic dermatitis.
|
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
During the initial treatment period:
- To evaluate the efficacy of tralokinumab on severity and extent of AD, itch,
and health related quality of life compared with placebo.
During the maintenance treatment period:
- To evaluate maintenance of effect with continued tralokinumab dosing up to
52 weeks compared to placebo for subjects achieving clinical response at 16 weeks.

E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
• Age 18 and above
• Diagnosis of AD as defined by the Hanifin and Rajka (1980) criteria for AD.

E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
For the initial treatment period:
- IGA score of 0 (clear) or 1 (almost clear) at Week 16
- EASI75 at Week 16 |
|
E.5.1.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
Bi-weekly throughout study. |
|
E.5.2 | Secondary end point(s) |
For the initial treatment period:
Severity and extent of AD: Change in SCORAD from baseline to Week 16
Itch: Reduction of Worst Daily Pruritus NRS (weekly average) of at least 4
from baseline to Week 16.
Quality of life: Change in DLQI score from baseline to Week 16
For the maintenance treatment period:
IGA of 0/1 at Week 52 among subjects with IGA of 0/1 at Week 16 after initial randomisation to tralokinumab
EASI75 at Week 52 among subjects with EASI75 at Week 16 after initial randomisation to tralokinumab
|
|
E.5.2.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
Bi-weekly throughout study for assessment conducted by the HCP. For Puritus the assessment is done on a daily basis using an eDiary. For DLQI completed by the subject every 2, 4 or 8 weeks. |
