Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Percentage of Participants with Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) 75 Response at Week 12
EASI-75 response is defined as at least 75 percent (%) improvement in EASI total score. EASI-75 response is defined as at least 75% improvement from baseline in EASI total score. The EASI score is used to measure the severity and extent of atopic dermatitis (AD) and measures erythema, infiltration/papulation, excoriation and lichenification on 4 anatomic regions of the body: head/neck, trunk, upper and lower extremities. The total EASI score ranges from 0 (minimum) to 72 (maximum) points, with the higher scores reflecting a higher severity of AD.
Baseline, Week 12
Secondary Outcomes (32)

Percentage of Participants Achieving Validated Investigator Global Assessment for Atopic Dermatitis (vIGA-AD) Score of 0 or 1 and a Reduction From Baseline of Greater Than Equal to (>=) 2 Points at Week 12

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Chronic Atopic Dermatitis (AD), according to American Academy of Dermatology Consensus Criteria with onset of symptoms at least 1 year prior to the screening visit
- Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) score greater than and equal to (\>=) 16 at the screening and baseline visits
- Validated investigator global assessment for AD (vIGA-AD) score \>= 3 at the screening and baseline visits
- \>= 10% body surface area (BSA) of AD involvement at the screening and baseline visits
- Baseline Peak Pruritus Numeric(al) Rating Scale (PP-NRS) average score of \>=4
- Documented history (within 6 months before screening) of either inadequate response or inadvisability to topical treatments, or inadequate response to systemic therapies (within 12 months before screening)
- Participant has applied a moisturizer at least once daily for at least 7 days before the baseline visit
You may not qualify if:
- Experienced primary efficacy failure (no response within 16 weeks) or an adverse event (AE) requiring discontinuation related to agents (eg, severe ocular surface disease, dupilumab-associated facial redness) inhibiting IL-4Rα, IL-4, and/or IL-13 signaling (eg, dupilumab, lebrikizumab, or tralokinumab)
- Participant is pregnant or breastfeeding, or planning to become pregnant or breastfeed during the study
- Active skin disease other than AD including eczema herpeticum, molluscum contagiosum, impetigo, psoriasis or has any other ongoing significant skin condition including skin infections, that, according to the investigator, could interfere with efficacy assessments
- Current diagnosis or signs or symptoms of severe, progressive, or uncontrolled renal, cardiac, vascular, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, endocrine, neurologic, hematologic, rheumatologic, psychiatric, or metabolic disturbances
- Recent case of eczema herpeticum, herpes zoster within 8 weeks before screening, or history of recurrent eczema herpeticum
- History of chronic or recurrent infectious disease, including but not limited to chronic renal infection, chronic chest infection (eg, untreated latent tuberculosis), recurrent urinary tract infection, fungal infection, mycobacterial infection, or open, draining, or infected skin wounds, or ulcers.
- Diagnosed active parasitic infection or at high risk of parasitic infection, unless treated with antihelminth therapy prior to randomization
