Trial overview
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
Trial description: 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).

Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria:
- Inclusion Criteria
- Age between 18 and 70 years of age inclusive, at the time of signing the informed consent.
- AD diagnosed by the Eichenfield revised criteria of Hanifin and Rajka.
- Diagnosis of AD >=2 years prior to the Screening visit.
- An IGA score >=3 at the Screening and Baseline visits.
- AD involvement of >=10% body surface area at the Screening and Baseline visits.
- EASI score >=16 at the Screening and Baseline visits.
- Absolute blood eosinophil count >=350 cells/microliter at the Screening visit.
- Applied the same non-prescription, non-medicated (without an active ingredient) emollient twice daily for at least 7 days immediately before the Baseline visit.
- Recent history (<=6 months prior to the Screening visit) of inadequate response to a stable regimen of prescription topical medication or for whom prescription topical medications are not tolerated or where there is a concern for potential side effects, such as skin thinning or increased risk of hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal [HPA] suppression; as well as, inadequate response to optimization of non-pharmacological measures such as moisturizers. Inadequate response to a stable regimen of prescription topical medication (such as medium to high potency topical corticosteroids or topical calcineurin inhibitors) is defined as failure to achieve and maintain remission or low disease activity state (equivalent to an IGA score =0 [clear] to 2 [mild]) despite treatment for the recommended duration as per label or for the maximum duration recommended for the subject treatment, whichever is shorter.
- Male or female: A female subject is eligible to participate if she is not pregnant (as confirmed by a negative urine human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG) test), not lactating, and at least one of the following conditions: Non-reproductive potential- Pre-menopausal females with documented tubal ligation, documented hysteroscopic tubal occlusion procedure with follow-up confirmation of bilateral tubal occlusion, hysterectomy, documented bilateral oophorectomy; and postmenopausal defined as 12 months of spontaneous amenorrhea (in questionable cases a blood sample with simultaneous follicle stimulating hormone [FSH] and estradiol levels consistent with menopause). Females on hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and whose menopausal status is in doubt will be required to use one of the highly effective contraception methods if they wish to continue their HRT during the study. Otherwise, they must discontinue HRT to allow confirmation of post-menopausal status prior to study enrolment. Reproductive potential and agrees to follow one of the options listed in the Modified List of Highly Effective Methods for Avoiding Pregnancy in Females of Reproductive Potential (FRP) from 30 days prior to the first dose of study medication and until 16 weeks after the last dose of study medication.
