A Study to Determine the Efficacy of ZPL-3893787 in Subjects With Atopic Dermatitis

May 26, 2021 updated by: Ziarco Pharma Ltd

A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo Controlled, Parallel Group Study to Determine the Effects of 8 Weeks Treatment With Oral ZPL-3893787 (30 mg od x 56 Days) on Pruritus in Adult Subjects With Moderate to Severe Atopic Dermatitis

This was a randomized, double blind, placebo controlled, parallel group study in approximately 90 subjects with moderate-severe AD Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) ≥12 and ≤ 48 (0-72 scale). Following a run-in subjects were randomized to receive either oral 30 mg ZPL-3893787 once daily (od) or placebo od for 8 weeks (56 days).

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 65 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

Males and females aged 18-65 years inclusive with physician documented history or diagnosis of atopic dermatitis for at least 12 months prior to screening. Chronic AD should be diagnosed by the Eichenfield revised criteria of Hanifin and Rajka (Eichenfield, 2004)

Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) of ≥12 and <48.

An Investigator's Global Assessment (IGA) score ≥ 3 at both Screening and Day 0.

A mean pruritus score of ≥ 5 on a 0-10 scale over the 7 day Run In (Days -7 to -1)

Atopic dermatitis affecting ≥10% BSA

Exclusion Criteria:

AD of such severity (EASI >48) that the subject could not comply with the demands of the study and/or the subject is not a suitable candidate for a placebo-controlled study

Have concurrent skin disease (e.g. acne) of such severity in the study area that it could interfere with the study evaluation or presence of skin comorbidities that may interfere with study assessments.

Have an active skin infection or any other clinically apparent infections.

Hypersensitivity to mometasone or to any other ingredients contained by the topical corticosteroid product used as rescue medication in the study.

Have received phototherapy (e.g. UVA, UVB), or systemic therapy (e.g. immunosuppressants, cytostatics) known or suspected to have an effect on AD, within 4 weeks of the start of the Run In.

Have received systemic corticosteroids ([CS] e.g. oral, intravenous, intraarticular, rectal) within 4 weeks of the start of the Run in. Subjects on a stable maintenance dose (over the preceding 3 months) of inhaled or intranasal CS may participate.

Were treated with oral antihistamines or topical calcineurin inhibitors or topical steroids within 7 days of starting Run In; intranasal antihistamines for the treatment of allergic rhinitis are acceptable.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change From Baseline in the Numerical Rating Score (NRS) for Pruritus (Worst Itch)
Time Frame: Baseline to Week 8

The participant used the Pruritus NRS to rate his or her worst itch in the previous 12 hours. This was assessed twice daily (in the morning soon after rising and the evening prior to retiring) and recorded in the eDiary. The scale ranges from 0 (no itching) to 10 (itching as bad as can be imagined).

If only 1 measurement was collected on a particular day, that score was counted as the worst measurement.
Baseline to Week 8

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change From Baseline in Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) Score
Time Frame: Baseline to Week 8

The EASI is a validated tool used to measure the severity and extent of atopic eczema over 4 body regions (head and neck, upper limbs, trunk, and lower limbs). The intensity of a representative area of eczema and the approximate percentage affected by eczema are calculated for each region. A representative area of eczema is selected for each body region. The intensity of redness (erythema), thickness (induration, papulation, and edema), scratching (excoriation), and lichenification (lined skin) of eczema is assessed as:

0 - None

  1. - Mild
  2. - Moderate
  3. - Severe The total score incorporates the extent of body regions affected. Scores range from 0 to 72 with higher scores indicating more severe eczema.

Total score is calculated by summing the EASI scores of 6 symptoms across 4 body regions
Baseline to Week 8
