Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: • Any systemic treatment of the atopic dermatitis within the last 4 weeks prior to study inclusion • Any topical treatment (e.g. topical immunomodulators such as tacrolimus ointment, pimecrolimus cream, topical antibiotics, topical glucocorticoids, other topical anti-inflammatory medication) or physical therapy (e.g. UV radiation) of the atopic dermatitis in the test area 7 days prior to study inclusion • Presence of tuberculous or syphilitic processes in the treatment area • Presence of viral infections (such as herpes or varicella), rosacea, perioral dermatitis, ulcera, acne vulgaris, atrophic skin diseases and vaccination skin reactions in the area to be treated. • Presence of bacterial and mycotic skin diseases in the treatment area • Known intolerance or hypersensitivity against methylprednisolone aceponate or any of the other ingredients in the study medication • Sunburn, extensive scarring, or pigmented lesion(s) in any treatment area, which would interfere with evaluations • Severe acute or chronic concomitant disease with severe impairment of the general condition • Other concomitant diseases which may - taking the present knowledge into account - influence the parameters evaluated in the study in a way that an objective evaluation would be impossible • Other concomitant medication which may - taking the present knowledge into account - influence the methods of measurement used in this study or the resulting data • Reasonable doubt concerning the co-operation of the patient • Participation in another clinical study within the last 30 days prior to inclusion in this study • Participation in this study at an earlier date • Women with existing or intended pregnancy or during lactation

Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: Evaluation of efficacy and safety of Methylprednisolone Aceponate 0.1% Cutaneous emulsion (Test) vs. Advantan Milk 0.1% Cutaneous emulsion (Reference) vs. Vehicle in patients with mild to moderate atopic dermatitis ;Secondary Objective: • Percent change of Eczema Area and Severity Index Score (EASI Score) between baseline and visits (Visit 1 and Visit 2) • Percent change of the total affected body surface area (BSA) between visits (Visit 1, Visit2 and Visit 3 • Change of the Investigator`s Global Assessment (IGA) between visits (Visit 1, Visit2 and Visit 3 • Evaluation of Overall Therapeutic Success by the investigator and patient at Visit 3 (EOT) • Patient´s assessment of severity of Pruritus ;Primary end point(s): The primary endpoint is the percent change from baseline (Visit 1) to Visit 3 (EOT) assessed by Eczema Area and Severity Index Score (EASI Score).;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Start of therapy (Day 0) and end of therapy (Visit 3) | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
