Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Percentage of IGA Responders at Week 16
Investigator's Global Assessment (IGA) score is used to determine the severity of atopic dermatitis symptoms and clinical response to treatment. It reflects a subject's overall disease severity for the whole body. The scale includes 0 = clear, 1 = almost clear, 2 = mild, 3 = moderate and 4 = severe. It is a static scale and does not refer to previous status of the subject. IGA response is defined as achievement of an IGA score of 0 or 1 with a 2-point reduction from baseline without use of confounding therapy (e.g. rescue medication) up to the assessment time point. Treatment discontinuations for lack of efficacy or adverse event are considered non-responders. Percentage of responders was calculated based on a logistic regression model with response as outcome variable and treatment (dose as categorical variable) and baseline IGA as covariates.

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Subjects must give a written, signed and dated informed consent
- Chronic atopic dermatitis present for at least 1 year before Baseline
- Moderate to severe atopic dermatitis defined as per EASI, IGA and BSA.
- Documented recent history (within 6 months before the screening visit) of inadequate response to treatment with topical medications or for whom topical treatments are otherwise medically inadvisable
- Candidate for systemic treatment
You may not qualify if:
- Any skin disease that would confound the diagnosis or evaluation of atopic dermatitis disease activity
- Use of other investigational drugs within 5 half-lives of enrollment, or within 30 days or until the expected pharmacodynamic effect has returned to baseline, whichever is longer.
- History of hypersensitivity to any of the study drug constituents or to drugs of similar chemical classes.
- Participation in prior ZPL389 studies
