Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To compare the effectiveness of three doses of topically applied DGLA cream, versus placebo, in the treatment of adult patients with mild to moderate dermatitis;Secondary Objective: To assess the safety, tolerability and the bioavailability of three doses of topically applied DGLA cream, versus placebo, in patients with mild to moderate atopic dermatitis;Primary end point(s): Change in modified Eczema Area and Severity Index (mEASI) from baseline (Day 0/start of IMP treatment) to 28 days (end of treatment) to evaluate the efficacy of three doses of topically applied DGLA cream in comparison to placebo;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 28 days

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): Change in modified Eczema Area and Severity Index (mEASI) from screening visit (visit 1) to baseline (Visit 2) and from baseline to 7, 14 and 21 days. Change in Investigator’s Global Assessment (IGA) score from screening visit (visit 1) to baseline (Visit 2) and from baseline to 7, 14 and 21 days. Change in the patient’s VAS pruritus score from screening visit (visit 1) to baseline (Visit 2) and from baseline to 7, 14 and 21 days. Change in the Patient Orientated Eczema Measure (POEM) from screening visit (visit 1) to baseline (Visit 2) and from baseline to 7, 14 and 21 days. Change in the Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) score from screening visit (visit 1) to baseline (Visit 2) and from baseline to 7, 14 and 21 days. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: From screening (Visit 1) to baseline (Visit 2) and from baseline to 7, 14 and 21 days.
