A Study to Investigate Vaccine Responses in Subcutaneous Amlitelimab Treated Atopic Dermatitis Participants Aged 18 Years and Older Compared With Placebo (HYDRO)

April 8, 2026 updated by: Sanofi

A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Phase 2 Study to Evaluate the Effect of Amlitelimab on Vaccine Antibody Responses in Adult Participants With Moderate to Severe Atopic Dermatitis

This is a Phase 2, multicenter, randomized, double-blind placebo controlled, 2-arm study to evaluate the effect of amlitelimab on vaccine antibody responses, and the safety of amlitelimab concurrently administered with non-live vaccines in adult participants with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (AD).

The purpose of this study is to compare the immune responses to concomitantly administered Boostrix (tetanus, diphtheria, and acellular pertussis [Tdap]) and Pneumovax 23 (PPSV) vaccines in adult participants with moderate-to-severe AD treated with amlitelimab versus placebo. The study will evaluate the percentage of participants achieving a positive anti-tetanus response at Week 16 (primary endpoint) and a positive anti-pneumococcal response at Week 16 (key secondary endpoint).

Study details include:

The study duration will be up to 36 weeks (for participants not entering the LTS17367 [RIVER-AD]).

The screening period will be 9 days to 4 weeks. The treatment duration will be up to 16 weeks. The post-treatment safety follow-up period will be16 weeks. The number of visits will be up to 7 (or 6 for those entering LTS17367 [RIVER-AD]).

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Percentage of participants with a positive tetanus response at Week 16
Time Frame: Week 16
Positive tetanus response is defined as ≥2.5 IU/mL in anti-tetanus immunoglobulin G [IgG] titer for participants with a pre-vaccination baseline [Week 12] tetanus antibody titer of >1 IU/mL or a titer ≥ 3-fold increase for participants with a pre-vaccination titer of ≤1 IU/mL).
Week 16

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Percentage of participants with a positive pneumococcal vaccine response at Week 16
Time Frame: Week 16
Positive pneumococcal vaccine response is defined as a ≥2-fold increase from baseline in anti-pneumococcal antibodies (APAb) against >50% of the 23 serotypes.
Week 16
Percentage of participants who experienced treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAE), including serious adverse events (SAE) and adverse events of special interest (AESI)
Time Frame: Week 0 up to Week 32
Week 0 up to Week 32
Percentage of participants with potentially clinically significant abnormalities (PCSA) for vital signs and clinical laboratory assessments
Time Frame: Week 0 up to Week 32
Week 0 up to Week 32
Percentage of participants discontinued from study treatment due to TEAEs
Time Frame: Week 0 up to Week 32
Week 0 up to Week 32
Proportion of participants with validated Investigator Global Assessment scale for atopic dermatitis (vIGA-AD) of 0 (clear) or 1 (almost clear) and a reduction of ≥2 points from baseline at Week 16
Time Frame: Week 16
The vIGA-AD is an Investigator-completed assessment scale used to determine severity of AD and clinical response to treatment. It is based on a 5-point scale, ranging from 0 (clear) to 4 (severe).
Week 16
Proportion of participants with a ≥75% reduction in EASI score (EASI-75) from baseline at Week 16
Time Frame: Week 16
The EASI is an Investigator-assessed validated tool used to measure the extent (area) and severity of AD using a 4-point scale; 0 (absent) to 3 (severe).
Week 16
Serum amlitelimab concentrations
Time Frame: Week 0 up to Week 16
Week 0 up to Week 16
Incidence of antidrug antibodies (ADAs) of amlitelimab
Time Frame: Week 0 up to Week 16
Week 0 up to Week 16
