Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

A subject will be eligible for inclusion in this study only if all of the following criteria apply:

1. Males and females with confirmed diagnosis of atopic dermatitis by Hanifin and Rajka criteria (Appendix 4: Criteria for Atopic Dermatitis Diagnosis).

For adult subjects, the age range is 18 to 70 years. For adolescent subjects, the age range is 12 to 17 years.

2. Subjects with atopic dermatitis covering = 3% and < 40% of the body surface area and with an Investigator Global Assessment (IGA) of 2 or 3 (mild to moderate) at baseline. Scalp, palms and soles should be excluded from the BSA calculation to determine eligibility at baseline.

NOTE: Subjects with mild disease (IGA =2) will be limited to approximately 25% of total enrollment.

3. Minimum EASI score of 7 at baseline.

4. Females of childbearing potential and male subjects and who are engaging in sexual activity that could lead to pregnancy must use the following adequate birth control methods while on study and for 2 weeks after stopping study drug. Acceptable contraception methods are:

• Male or Male partner with vasectomy OR

• Male condom, AND partner use of one of the contraceptive options below:

• Spermicide

• Contraceptive subdermal implant that meets effectiveness criteria including a <1% rate of failure per year, as stated in the product label

• Intrauterine device or intrauterine system that meets effectiveness criteria including a <1% rate of failure per year, as stated in the product label [Hatcher, 2007a]

• Oral Contraceptive, either combined or progestogen alone [Hatcher, 2007a] Injectable progestogen [Hatcher, 2007a]

• Contraceptive vaginal ring [Hatcher, 2007a]

• Percutaneous contraceptive patches [Hatcher, 2007a]

These allowed methods of contraception are only effective when used consistently, correctly and in accordance with the product label. The investigator is responsible for ensuring that subjects understand how to properly use these methods of contraception.

Non-child-bearing potential is defined as pre-menopausal females with a documented bilateral tubal ligation, bilateral oophorectomy (removal of the ovaries) or hysterectomy; hysteroscopic sterilization; or postmenopausal defined as 12 months of spontaneous amenorrhea. In questionable cases a blood sample with simultaneous follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) > 40mlU is confirmatory. Documented verbal history from the subject is acceptable.

2. A positive test for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) antibody at screening.

3. Screening alanine aminotransferase (ALT) = 3x the upper limit of normal (ULN).

10. Lactating females.

11. History of sensitivity to the study medications, or components thereof or a history of drug or other allergy that, in the opinion of the Investigator or Medical Monitor, contraindicates their participation.

12. The subject has received an investigational product within the following time period prior to the first dosing day in the current study: 30 days, 5 half-lives or twice the duration of the biological effect of the investigational product (whichever is longer).

14. Subjects with active infection that required oral or intravenous administration of antibiotics, antifungal or antiviral agents within 7 days of Baseline/Day 0.

15. Concurrent skin lesions in the treatment area or pruritus due to conditions other than atopic dermatitis that, in the opinion of the investigator, would either interfere with study evaluations or affect the safety of the subject.

16. Subjects with advanced disease or abnormal laboratory test values that could affect the safety of the subject or the implementation of this study.

17. Evidence of significant hepatic, renal, respiratory, endocrine, hematologic, neurologic, psychiatric, or cardiovascular system abnormalities or laboratory abnormality that will affect the health of the subject or interfere with interpretation of the results.

18. The subject has excessive sun exposure, is planning a trip to a sunny climate which would involve excessive sun exposure, or used tanning booths within 28 days prior to baseline (Day 0) or is not willing to minimize natural and artificial sunlight exposure during the study.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Other	Patient Reported Symptoms	The subject will assess burning and pruritus at the application site during clinic visits on a scale of (0) None to (3) Severe. The patient reported symptoms and outcomes will be listed and summarized.	28 days
Other	Patient Report Outcomes	The Patient Oriented Eczema Measures (POEM - adult version) is a tool used for monitoring atopic dermatitis severity. It focuses on the illness as experienced by the patients. Measurements will be assessed on Day 0, Day 28 and during follow up 7-10 days post dose. The patient reported symptoms and outcomes will be listed and summarized	28 Days
Primary	Frequency and severity of adverse events (local and systemic)	Adverse events will be coded using the most current release of MedDRA® (Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities). The number and proportion of subjects with adverse events will be summarized by treatment, system organ class, and preferred term for all adverse events, all adverse events considered by the investigator to be related to study drug, all serious adverse events, and all adverse events leading to study drug discontinuation	28 days
Primary	Laboratory values	Selected laboratory data will be summarized by the observed data and by the change from baseline (as appropriate) across time. Incidence of treatment emergent laboratory values that are considered clinically significantly abnormal will be summarized by treatment group.	28 days
Primary	Vital signs	Vital signs will be measured in supine or semi-supine position after a 5 minute rest and will include systolic and diastolic blood pressure and pulse rate. Vital sign data will be listed by subject and summarized by treatment.	28 days
Primary	ECGs	Single 12-lead ECGs will be obtained at Screening, Day 0, Day 7, Day 28 and during follow up 7-10 days-post-dose using an ECG machine that automatically calculates the heart rate and measures PR, QRS, QT, and QTc intervals. ECG data will be listed by subject and summarized by treatment.	28 Days
Primary	Plasma concentrations of RVT-501	PK samples will be collected pre-dose at week 1 for all subjects. At week 4, PK samples will be collected pre-dose and within 2-4 hours post-dose. RVT-501 will be measured in plasma by validated assay in all subjects to confirm exposure. These plasma concentrations will be listed separately for adults and adolescents by metabolite, subject, treatment, and time; and will be summarized by metabolite, treatment and time. The number of percent of subjects with measurable concentration at each time point and any time during the study will be provided.	28 Days
Primary	Plasma concentrations of M11 metabolite	PK samples will be collected pre-dose at week 1 for all subjects. At week 4, PK samples will be collected pre-dose and within 2-4 hours post-dose. The M11 metabolite will be measured in plasma by validated assay in all subjects to confirm exposure. These plasma concentrations will be listed separately for adults and adolescents by metabolite, subject, treatment, and time; and will be summarized by metabolite, treatment and time. The number of percent of subjects with measurable concentration at each time point and any time during the study will be provided.	28 Days
Secondary	Efficacy - Investigators Global Assessment (IGA)	The Investigator's Global Assessment (IGA) of Disease Severity will be assessed at every on-site study visit. The IGA is a global assessment of the current state of the disease. It is a 5-point morphological assessment of overall disease severity All efficacy analyses will be performed based on the ITT population by treatment and age group. The total IGA scores, changes and percent changes from baseline will be summarized by treatment group and visit.

Secondary	Efficacy - Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI)	The Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) will be assessed at every study visit. It quantifies the severity of a subject's atopic dermatitis based on both lesion severity and the percent of BSA affected. The total and regional EASI scores will be summarized for the actual, change from baseline and percent change from baseline. The between treatment comparisons of change and percent change from baseline will be performed by visit using an analysis of covariance model (ANCOVA)	28 Days
Secondary	Efficacy - Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) for Pruritus	NRS for Pruritus (Numerical Rating Scale) is a validated scale used to quickly assess pruritus severity. The total affected BSA and NRS for Pruritus will be analyzed similar to the EASI score. The patient reported symptoms and outcomes will be listed and summarized	28 Days
