Brief summary

This is a double-blind, randomized, vehicle-controlled study to assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of 2 doses of B244 for the treatment of pruritus in adults with a history of atopic dermatitis. Subjects who meet the study entry criteria will be randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to receive twice daily topical doses of B244 O.D. 5.0, B244 O.D. 20.0, or vehicle (placebo) for 4 weeks.

Detailed description

This is a Prospective, Vehicle Controlled, Double-Blind, Multicenter, Randomized Phase II Trial, comparing the effect of twice daily B244 applications for 4 weeks vs vehicle applications on treatment of mild to moderate pruritus associated with atopic dermatitis. * Approximately 576 subjects may be enrolled. * The total duration of the study will be approximately 11 weeks. Participants will report for a Screening visit and if all inclusion/exclusion criteria are met, subjects will go through a two-week washout phase before reporting for a Baseline visit. * After screening and baseline, participants will be randomized to one of two doses of B244 or vehicle application for 4 weeks. * Randomization will be 1:1:1 so that an equal number of patients will be treated in each Arm of the study. * All B244 randomized subjects will be treated at the dose of O.D. 5.0 or O.D. 20.0 * Subjects must be willing and able to complete diary within a consistent time frame on a daily basis and to comply with restrictions on allowable therapies for the duration of the study. * All subjects will attend a screening visit not more than 21 days prior to Baseline (Day 0). * Subjects will be required to return to the clinic at Baseline, Day 14 (Week 2) and Day 28 (Week 4) visits. All subjects will be asked to attend a Week 8 follow-up visit 4 weeks (28 (±3) days) after the last dose of study medication. * Subjects will apply a total of 10 pumps of IP per application across all affected areas twice-a-day (i.e. 10 pumps in the morning and 10 pumps again at night) for 4 weeks. * Safety evaluations will consist of review of participant's medical history at screening and on-going assessment of adverse events reported throughout the study duration.

MeasureTime frameDescription
Mean Change in Worst Itch Numeric Rating Scale (WI-NRS)Baseline to Day 28The Itch Numeric Rating Scale (I-NRS) is a validated, self-reported instrument for measurement of itch intensity. It uses a 24-hour recall period and asks subjects to rate the intensity of their itch on an 11-point scale ranging from 0 (no itch) to 10 (worst itch imaginable). Higher scores indicate greater itch intensity. Worst itch intensity (WI-NRS) during a 24-hour recall period will be captured. The question for WI-NRS would be, Please rate the itching severity due to your atopic dermatitis by circling the number that best describes your worst level of itching in the past 24 hours.

Mean Change in Patient Oriented Eczema Measure (POEM)Baseline to Day 28The Patient Oriented Eczema Measure (POEM) is a tool developed by the University of Nottingham, United Kingdom, for monitoring atopic dermatitis severity. The subject will complete the questionnaire at each of the assessment timepoints as outlined. Each of the 7 questions in the POEM questionnaire carries equal weight and is scored from 0 to 4: No days = 0. 1 to 2 days = 1. 3 to 4 days = 2. 5 to 6 days = 3. Every day = 4. Scores are then added to yield a total score of 0 to 28; higher scores mean the greater the severity of atopic dermatitis.
Mean Change in 5-D Pruritus ScaleBaseline to Day 28The 5-D Pruritus Scale is a validated, multi-dimensional measure of itching that assesses the five domains of degree (score 1-5: 1=not present, 2=mild, 3=moderate, 4=severe, 5=unbearable), duration (score 1-5: 1=less than 6hrs/day, 2=6-12hrs/day, 3=12-18hrs/day, 4=18-23hrs/day, 5=all day), direction (score 1-5: 1=completely resolved, 2=much better/still present, 3=little bit better/still present, 4=unchanged, 5=getting worse), disability (score 1-5: 1=never affects activity, 2=rarely affects activity, 3=occasionally affects activity, 4=frequently affects activity, 5=always affects activity; highest activity score is taken), and distribution (check boxes of affected body parts; 0-2 body parts=score of 1, 3-5=score of 2, 6-10=score of 3, 11-13=score of 4, 14-16=score of 5). The domains are scored separately and then summed together to obtain a total 5-D score, ranging from 5 (no pruritus) to 25 (most severe pruritus). Subjects rate their symptoms over the preceding 2-week period.

Mean Change in Worst Itch Numeric Rating Scale (WI-NRS)

The Itch Numeric Rating Scale (I-NRS) is a validated, self-reported instrument for measurement of itch intensity. It uses a 24-hour recall period and asks subjects to rate the intensity of their itch on an 11-point scale ranging from 0 (no itch) to 10 (worst itch imaginable). Higher scores indicate greater itch intensity. Worst itch intensity (WI-NRS) during a 24-hour recall period will be captured. The question for WI-NRS would be, Please rate the itching severity due to your atopic dermatitis by circling the number that best describes your worst level of itching in the past 24 hours.

Time frame: Baseline to Day 28

Population: Subjects from the Modified Intent to Treat (mITT) population (all randomized participants who applied at least 1 dose of study medication and had at least one post-baseline evaluation on-site visit. Subjects were grouped as randomized) that remained in the study at Day 28

Mean Change in 5-D Pruritus Scale

The 5-D Pruritus Scale is a validated, multi-dimensional measure of itching that assesses the five domains of degree (score 1-5: 1=not present, 2=mild, 3=moderate, 4=severe, 5=unbearable), duration (score 1-5: 1=less than 6hrs/day, 2=6-12hrs/day, 3=12-18hrs/day, 4=18-23hrs/day, 5=all day), direction (score 1-5: 1=completely resolved, 2=much better/still present, 3=little bit better/still present, 4=unchanged, 5=getting worse), disability (score 1-5: 1=never affects activity, 2=rarely affects activity, 3=occasionally affects activity, 4=frequently affects activity, 5=always affects activity; highest activity score is taken), and distribution (check boxes of affected body parts; 0-2 body parts=score of 1, 3-5=score of 2, 6-10=score of 3, 11-13=score of 4, 14-16=score of 5). The domains are scored separately and then summed together to obtain a total 5-D score, ranging from 5 (no pruritus) to 25 (most severe pruritus). Subjects rate their symptoms over the preceding 2-week period.

Mean Change in Average Itch Numeric Rating Scale (AI-NRS)

The Itch Numeric Rating Scale (I-NRS) is a validated, self-reported instrument for measurement of itch intensity. It uses a 24-hour recall period and asks subjects to rate the intensity of their itch on an 11-point scale ranging from 0 (no itch) to 10 (worst itch imaginable). Higher scores indicate greater itch intensity. Average itch intensity (AI-NRS) during a 24-hour recall period will be captured. The question for AI-NRS would be, Please rate the itching severity due to your atopic dermatitis by circling the number that best describes your average level of itching in the past 24 hours.

Mean Change in Patient Oriented Eczema Measure (POEM)

The Patient Oriented Eczema Measure (POEM) is a tool developed by the University of Nottingham, United Kingdom, for monitoring atopic dermatitis severity. The subject will complete the questionnaire at each of the assessment timepoints as outlined. Each of the 7 questions in the POEM questionnaire carries equal weight and is scored from 0 to 4: No days = 0. 1 to 2 days = 1. 3 to 4 days = 2. 5 to 6 days = 3. Every day = 4. Scores are then added to yield a total score of 0 to 28; higher scores mean the greater the severity of atopic dermatitis.
