Atopic Dermatitis (AD)

Atopic Dermatitis, Ivarmacitinib

Brief summary

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a skin condition characterized by a rash and itching, resulting from skin inflammation. Ivarmacitinib is an approved medication for treating AD. This study assessed the efficacy and safety of switching to the JAK1 inhibitor ivarmacitinib over 16 weeks in patients with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis and inadequate response to IL-4Rα inhibitors under real-world conditions. It is expected that there will be no additional burden for participants in this trial.

Interventions

Patients with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis are initially treated with 4 mg of ivarmacitinib once daily for 16 weeks.If a suboptimal response is observed with the 4 mg once-daily dose, an increase to 8 mg once daily may be considered. Treatment should be discontinued if an adequate response is not achieved following dose escalation to 8 mg once daily.

Inclusion criteria

* Aged between 18 and 75 years. * Patients diagnosed with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis and treated with IL-4Rα inhibitors according to standard regimens for a minimum of 12 weeks. * Meeting any of the following disease activity criteria: EASI ≥16, WI-NRS ≥4.

Exclusion criteria

* Treatment with other JAK inhibitors, including topical formulations, within one week before enrollment. * Subjects with clinically significant diseases of the heart, liver, kidney, or other major organ systems. * Subject has any of the following abnormalities in clinical laboratory tests at screening, as assessed by the study-specific laboratory and confirmed by a single repeat, if deemed necessary: a. Absolute lymphocyte count of \<0.50 x 10\^9 /L (\<500/mm3);b. Absolute Neutrophil Count (ANC) of \<1 X 10\^9/L (\<1000/mm3);c. Hemoglobin level \< 80 g/L. * Subject with a prior history of thromboembolic events, including deep vein thromboses (DVT), pulmonary embolism, cerebrovascular accidents and those with known inherited conditions that predispose to hypercoagulability. * Presence of an active severe acute or chronic bacterial, fungal, or viral infection requiring systemic therapy. * Subjects with active tuberculosis or known active hepatitis B and/or hepatitis C infection. * Subject has any malignancies or has a history of malignancies with the exception of adequately treated or excised non-metastatic basal cell or squamous cell cancer of the skin, or cervical carcinoma in situ. * Pregnant or breastfeeding women, or women of childbearing potential who are unwilling to use contraception.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI 75) at Week 1616 WeeksProportion of subjects achieving at least a 75% improvement in Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI 75) from baseline at Week 16
Worst-Itch Numeric Rating Scale (WI-NRS-4)-4 at Week 1616 WeeksProportion of subjects achieving an improvement of Worst-Itch Numeric Rating Scale (WI-NRS) ≥4 from baseline at Week 16

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Investigator's Global Assessment (IGA) score of 0/1 at Week 1616 WeeksProportion of subjects achieving Investigator's Global Assessment (IGA) score of clear (0) or almost clear (1) and a reduction from baseline of ≥2 points at Week 16
EASI 75 at Week 2, 4, 8 and 12Week 2, 4, 8 and 12Proportion of subjects achieving EASI 75 at all scheduled visits during placebo-controlled treatment phase except Week 16
Worst-Itch Numeric Rating Scale (WI-NRS) at Week 2, 4, 8 and 12Week 2, 4, 8 and 12Proportion of subjects achieving an improvement of WI-NRS ≥4 from baseline at all scheduled visits during placebo-controlled treatment phase other than Week 16
Change of Patient-Oriented Eczema Measure (POEM) from baseline at Week 2, 4, 8, 12 and 16Day 1 to Week 16Change from baseline in Patient-Oriented Eczema Measure (POEM) at all scheduled visits. 7-item, patient-administered scale that assesses disease severity in children and adults. Subjects respond to questions about the frequency of 7 symptoms (itching, sleep disturbance, bleeding, weeping/oozing, cracking, flaking, and dryness/roughness) over the last week. Response categories include "No days," "1-2 days," "3-4 days," "5-6 days," and "Every day" with corresponding scores of 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4, respectively. Scores range from 0-28 with higher total scores indicating greater disease severity.
Change of dermatology life quality index (DLQI) from baseline at Week 2, 4, 8, 12, and 16Day 1 to Week 16The DLQI is a 10-item validated questionnaire used to assess the impact of AD disease symptoms and treatment on quality of life (QoL). It consists of 10 questions evaluating impact of skin diseases on different aspects of a participant's QoL over the prior week, including symptoms and feelings, daily activities, leisure, work or school, personal relationships, and the side effects of treatment. Each item is scored on a 4-point scale (0 = not at all/not relevant; 1 = a little; 2 = a lot; and 3 = very much). Item scores are added to provide a total score, ranging from 0 to 30, with higher scores indicating greater impairment of QoL.
