This is a 3-part study to assess the safety, tolerability, efficacy, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and immunogenicity of MK-8226 in participants with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis. Part 1 (multiple rising dose study) objectives were to find the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of MK-8226 and to assess safety and PK. Part 2 objectives were to determine safety, PK, and preliminary efficacy. Part 3 objectives were to further define safety and PK, and explore MK-8226 PK/PD to model the optimal dose range for future studies. The study was terminated early due to business reasons on 08 May 2014; final results from an analysis for Part 1 (efficacy, PK, safety, immunogenicity) and Part 2 (safety, immunogenicity) are summarized.

Other | Change From Baseline in the Participant's Global Impression of Disease Status in Study Part 2 | Participant subjective impression of improvement of his/her disease condition is scored on a six-point scale: 0 (Clear) to 5 (Very severe disease). | Baseline, Week 4, Week 12, Week 24 | |
Primary | Number of Participants Who Experienced at Least One Adverse Event | An adverse event (AE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation subject administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavourable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding, for example), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product or protocol-specified procedure, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product or protocol-specified procedure. Any worsening (i.e., any clinically significant adverse change in frequency and/or intensity) of a preexisting condition that is temporally associated with the use of the Sponsor's product, is also an AE. | Up to 32 Weeks | |
Primary | Number of Participants Who Discontinued Study Drug Due to an Adverse Event | An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation subject administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavourable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding, for example), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product or protocol-specified procedure, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product or protocol-specified procedure. Any worsening (i.e., any clinically significant adverse change in frequency and/or intensity) of a preexisting condition that is temporally associated with the use of the Sponsor's product, is also an AE. | Up to 12 Weeks | |
Primary | Change From Baseline in the Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) for Study Part 1 | Reduction from baseline in EASI at Week 12 (interim analysis data). The EASI assesses intensity of four lesion characteristics (erythema, infiltration/population, excoriation, lichenification) each rated on a scale of 0 (absent) to 3 (severe) across four regions (head, trunk, upper and lower extremities). Affected areas in each region are assessed as percentage of body surface (head [10%], trunk [30%], upper extremities [20%], and lower extremities [40%]). The total score is a sum of each region score and can range from 0 (absent disease) to 72 (severe disease). | Baseline, Week 12 | |
Secondary | Plasma Chemokine (C-C Motif) Ligand 17 (CCL17) Level in Study Part 2 | CCL17 is a pro-allergic chemokine that is assessed in human plasma. Levels of CCL17 are increased in allergic disease states. | Baseline, 48 Hours, Week 2, Week 4, Week 12, Week 16 | |
Secondary | Plasma Chemokine (C-C Motif) Ligand 22 (CCL22) Level in Study Part 2 | CCL22 is a pro-allergic chemokine that is assessed in human plasma. Levels of CCL22 are increased in allergic disease states. | Baseline, 48 Hours, Week 2, Week 4, Week 12, Week 16 | |

Secondary | Change From Baseline in the Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) for Study Part 2 | The EASI assesses intensity of four lesion characteristics (erythema, infiltration/population, excoriation, lichenification) each rated on a scale of 0 (absent) to 3 (severe) across four regions (head, trunk, upper and lower extremities). Affected areas in each region are assessed as percentage of body surface (head [10%], trunk [30%], upper extremities [20%], and lower extremities [40%]). The total score is a sum of each region score and can range from 0 (absent disease) to 72 (severe disease). | Baseline, Week 4, Week 8, Week 24 | |
Secondary | Percentage of Participants With an Investigator Global Assessment (IGA) Score of Clear or Almost Clear in Study Part 2 | Percentage of participants achieving an IGA of atopic dermatitis of "clear-0" or "almost clear-1". The IGA is a six-point scale measuring the severity of disease at time of physical examination of the participant by the physician. The IGA is scored 0 (Clear) to 5 (Very severe disease). | Baseline, Week 4, Week 8, Week 12, Week 24 | |
Secondary | Change From Baseline in the Scoring Atopic Dermatitis Scale (SCORAD) in Study Part 2 | The SCORAD index scale combines 1) intensity of six lesion characteristics (erythema, edema/papulation, oozing/crusts, excoriations, lichenification, dryness) as assessed by the physician on a scale of 0 (absent) to 3 (severe) across four regions (head, trunk, upper and lower extremities) along with 2) subjective symptoms of pruritus and sleep disturbance as reported by the patient on a visual analog scale (VAS) from 1 to 10 cm (increasing severity). Physician assessment of affected areas in each region is made as percentage of body surface (head [10%], trunk [30%], upper extremities [20%], and lower extremities [40%]). The final SCORAD index score, ranging from 0 (absent disease) to 103 (severe disease), is calculated according to the weighted formula: (0.2 x area) + (3.5 x [sum of intensity score for each of the 6 items]) + participant's subjective score. | Baseline, Week 4, Week 12, Week 24 | |
Secondary | Change From Baseline in Participant Pruritus in Study Part 2 | Skin pruritus (itching) is a typical characteristic of atopic dermatitis. Participant subjective assessment of pruritus (component of SCORAD) is rated on a VAS ranging from 1 to 10 cm (increasing severity). | Baseline, Week 4, Week 12, Week 24 | |
Secondary | Change From Baseline in Participant Sleep Disturbance in Study Part 2 | Sleep disturbance (sleep loss, disruption, or interference) due to unremitting pruritus and other causes is a quality of life issue in moderate to severe atopic dermatitis. Participant subjective assessment of sleep disturbance (component of SCORAD) over the past 3 days is rated on a VAS ranging from 1 to 10 cm (increasing severity). | Baseline, Week 4, Week 12, Week 24 | |
Secondary | Number of Participants Requiring As-Needed Oral Antihistamines as Rescue Medication in Study Part 2 | Oral antihistamines (i.e., diphenhydramine, acrivastine fenistil) were provided as as-needed rescue medication for severe pruritus. | Up to Week 12 | |
Secondary | Percentage of Participants With >=50% Improvement in EASI Score | The EASI assesses intensity of four lesion characteristics (erythema, infiltration/population, excoriation, lichenification) each rated on a scale of 0 (absent) to 3 (severe) across four regions (head, trunk, upper and lower extremities). Affected areas in each region are assessed as percentage of body surface (head [10%], trunk [30%], upper extremities [20%], and lower extremities [40%]). The total score is a sum of each region score and can range from 0 (absent disease) to 72 (severe disease). | Baseline, Week 12, Week 24 | |
Secondary | Number of Participants Positive for Anti-Drug Antibody (ADA) Formation | Testing for ADA positivity and neutralizing response and antibody titre quantification are performed with blood (serum) samples collected at baseline (Day 1 predose) and Days 14, 28, 42, 56, 74, 112, and 224. Neutralizing response refers to ADA neutralizing interference with study drug assessed in vitro. Non-Treatment emergent ADA refers to presence of ADAs (as determined by assay) in the absence of treatment with study drug (i.e., at predose). | Days 1 (predose) and Days 14, 28, 42, 56, 74, 112, and 224 |
