Phase 1a/1b Study of TRB-061 in Healthy Participants & Patients With Atopic Dermatitis

May 27, 2026 updated by: TRex Bio, Inc.

A Phase 1a/1b Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, 3-Part Study to Investigate the Safety, Pharmacokinetics, and Pharmacodynamics of Single and Multiple Subcutaneous Doses of TRB-061 in Healthy Participants and in Patients With Moderate-to-Severe Atopic Dermatitis

This Phase 1a/1b randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study evaluates the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of subcutaneously (SC) administered TRB-061 in healthy adults and patients with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (AD). The number of dosing cohorts may be increased or decreased in Part 1 (SAD) or Part 2 (MAD).

Part 1 (SAD): Healthy participants receiving single doses of TRB-061 or placebo.

Part 2 (MAD): Healthy participants receiving multiple doses (3 doses over 8 weeks) of TRB-061 or placebo.

Part 3 (Phase 1b): Participants with moderate-to-severe AD receiving repeated doses (4 doses over 12 weeks) of TRB-061 or placebo.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Healthy adults will receive a single-ascending dose (SAD) of placebo or TRB-061 in cohorts of 8 (6 active, 2 placebo). Safety data will be reviewed before dosing the remaining participants. Follow-up lasts 12 weeks post-dosing. Treatment in the multiple-ascending dose (MAD) phase will be initiated after SAD cohort safety review is completed. Healthy adults will receive 3 doses of TRB-061 or placebo every 4 weeks (Q4W) over 8 weeks. Follow-up lasts 10 weeks post-last dose.

Participants with moderate-to-severe AD (Phase 1b) will be randomized to receive one of two dose levels of TRB-061 or placebo for 12 weeks (Q4W) in Period 1. In Period 2, participants will have the option to consent to a cross over treatment where those who previously received placebo will receive TRB-061 and those who received TRB-061 will receive placebo Q4W for 12 weeks followed by a Follow Up period through End of Study (EOS). Participants who do not consent to receive crossover treatment will continue study visits including efficacy and safety assessments through the EOS visit.
