Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Percent change from baseline to week 12 in EASIFrom Day 1 (first dose) to Day 85 (week 12)Evaluate the clinical efficacy of 2 dose levels of HSK44459, compared to placebo, in adult participants with atopic dermatitis (AD) using EASI. A total EASI score range from 0 to 72 points will be recorded for each assessment, with higher scores reflecting worse severity of AD

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Proportion of patients with EASI-75 at week 12From Day 1 (first dose) to Day 85 (week 12)Proportion of patients with EASI-75 (≥75% improvement from baseline) at week 12
Proportion of patients with both IGA 0 to 1and a reduction from baseline of ≥2 points at week 12From Day 1 (first dose) to Day 85 (week 12)The IGA determines severity of AD and clinical response to treatment on a 5-point scale 0 = Clear 1. = Almost clear 2. = Mild 3. = Moderate 4. = Severe
Proportion of patients with reduction of pruritus WI-NRS ≥3 or WI-NRS ≥4 from baseline to week 12From Day 1 (first dose) to Day 85 (week 12)The WI-NRS ranges from 0 = no itch to 10 =worst imaginable itch for the worst intensity itch in the preceding 24-hour period.
