Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: - An unstable course of AD (spontaneously improving or rapidly deteriorating) as determined by the Investigator in the 4 weeks prior to Baseline. - Known history of, or suspected, significant current immunosuppression, including a history of invasive opportunistic or helminth infections despite infection resolution or otherwise recurrent infections of abnormal frequency or prolonged duration - Clinically significant history or evidence of any active or suspected parasitic infection within 4 weeks of the Baseline visit, or travel within the 3 months before baseline to areas of high parasitic exposure, as determined by local or international health guidelines or epidemiological data - Chronic or acute infection requiring treatment with systemic antibiotics, antivirals, antiparasitics, antiprotozoals, or antifungals within 4 weeks of the Baseline visit, or superficial skin infections within 1 week of the Baseline visit - Presence of other skin conditions, such as contact dermatitis, psoriasis, tinea corporis, or lupus erythematosus, that may interfere with study assessments - Any other clinically significant disease, condition, or medical history that, in the opinion of the Investigator, would interfere with participant safety, study evaluations, and/or study procedures - Prohibited therapy received within a specified time frame prior to the Baseline visit - History of inadequate response to any therapeutic agent targeting IL-4, IL-13, and/or the JAK-STAT pathway (eg, dupilumab, lebrikizumab, upadacitinib, abrocitinib) at approved doses.
