About this study

Official title: A Phase 2b, Double-blind, Randomised, 5-arm, Vehicle-controlled, Dose Ranging Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Twice Daily Topical Applications of Delgocitinib Cream 1, 3, 8, 20 mg/g for 8 Weeks in Adult Subjects With Mild to Severe Atopic Dermatitis.

This is a double-blind, multi-centre, randomised, 5-arm, vehicle-controlled, parallel-group trial. The trial is designed to establish a dose-response signal and investigate the efficacy and safety of delgocitinib cream in the treatment of adult subjects with mild to severe atopic dermatitis (AD).

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Delgocitinib creamDrug

    Also called LEO 124249 cream

    Cream for topical application

  • Delgocitinib cream vehicleDrug

    Also called LEO 124249 cream vehicle

    The cream vehicle is similar to the delgocitinib cream except that it does not contain any active ingredient.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change From Baseline (Week 0) to Week 8 in Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) Score.

    EASI is a validated measure used in clinical practice and clinical trials to assess the severity and extent of AD. The EASI is a composite index with scores ranging from 0 to 72, with higher values indicating more severe or more extensive condition.

    The multiple comparison procedure - modelling (MCP-Mod) approach was used to guide dose selection. Mixed Model for Repeated Measurements (MMRM) analysis was used to determine the difference in the continuous endpoint between the active delgocitinib doses and delgocitinib cream vehicle.

    Measured: Week 0 to Week 8

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Validated Investigator Global Assessment Scale for Atopic Dermatitis (vIGA-AD) Score of 0 (Clear) or 1 (Almost Clear) With ≥2-step Improvement (vIGA-AD TS) From Baseline to Week 8.

    vIGA-AD is an instrument used in clinical trials to assess the subject's global disease severity and is based on a 5-point scale ranging from 0 (clear) to 4 (severe).

    The multiple comparison procedure - modelling (MCP-Mod) approach was used to guide dose-selection. Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel analysis was used to determine the difference in response rates between the active delgocitinib cream doses and the delgocitinib cream vehicle.

    Measured: Week 0 to Week 8

  2. EASI75 at Week 8

    EASI75 is defined as at least 75% reduction in EASI from baseline.

    Measured: Week 0 to Week 8

  3. Time to vIGA-AD TS

    The time to vIGA-AD TS response is defined as the time from baseline to first assessment of a vIGA-AD score of 0 (Clear) or 1 (Almost Clear) with ≥2-step improvement

    Measured: Week 0 to Week 8

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Delgocitinib cream in people with Atopic Dermatitis, run by LEO Pharma at 31 sites in 3 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 11 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Mar 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 31 sites in Canada, United States, Australia. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 8 Jul 2021). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change From Baseline (Week 0) to Week 8 in Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) Score. (time frame: Week 0 to Week 8). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 Mar 2025.
