Dermatitis, Atopic Clinical Trial

Official title: Study 205050: A Multicenter, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Parallel-Group Study to Investigate the Efficacy and Safety of Mepolizumab Administered Subcutaneously in Subjects With Moderate to Severe Atopic Dermatitis

Status Terminated

Clinical Trial Summary

Mepolizumab is a humanized Immunoglobulin G1 (IgG1) monoclonal antibody (mAb) that acts on Interleukin-5 (IL-5), which is responsible for the growth and differentiation, recruitment, activation, and survival of eosinophils; thereby reducing the production and survival of eosinophils which may be therapeutic in subjects with atopic dermatitis (AD). This study will investigate the efficacy and safety of mepolizumab (100 milligram [mg] subcutaneous [SC] administered every 4 weeks) compared with placebo in adult subjects with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis (AD). Subjects will be randomized 1:1 to either placebo SC or mepolizumab SC. The study will comprise of a pre-screening period of up to approximately 4 weeks, a screening period of up to 2 weeks, followed by a 16-Week study treatment period (16 weeks with the last dose of study treatment at Week 12) and follow-up period of up to 4-week. The total duration of subject participation will be approximately 26 weeks. (Note: For subjects, who may need to stop treatment with a biologic, the total Pre-Screening and Screening period may last up to 20 weeks and total duration of participation in the study may be up to 40 weeks).
