This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial with 500 participants. In this study, the safety evaluation used the common toxic reaction criteria of the National Cancer Institute to evaluate the adverse events of the drugs, and the effectiveness evaluation used the eczema area and severity score and the overall investigator score to confirm the efficacy.
- Conditions
- Atopic Dermatitis
- Being tested
- TQH2722 injection, Placebo of TQH2722 injection
- Medical subject headings
- Dermatitis, Atopic

Percentage of participants who achieved EASI-75 (≥75% improvement from baseline) on the eczema Area and Severity score (EASI)
Measured: Baseline to 16 weeks after treatment
Subjects with an Investigator's Overall Rating (IGA) score (5-scale) of 0 or 1 and ≥2 points decline from baseline
Percentage of subjects with an Investigator's Overall Rating (IGA) score (5-scale) of 0 or 1 and ≥2 points decline from baseline.
Measured: Baseline to 16 weeks after treatment
Secondary outcomes (11)
The incidence of adverse events
Adverse events that occur during treatment
Measured: After medication to 60 weeks
Steady valley concentration of TQH2722

Measured: After medication to 60 weeks
Incidence of neutralizing antibodies (Nab)
Incidence of neutralizing antibodies (Nab)
Measured: After medication to 60 weeks
Eczema area and severity score (EASI) change from baseline
The affected area of each site was assessed. According to the percentage of the affected area, the corresponding Region score was 0 to 6. The higher the score, the more severe the involvement.
Measured: From baseline to week 60
Rate of change from baseline in the Investigator's overall Score (IGA)
The researchers assessed the form of the dermatitis using a 5-point scale (0-5), with higher scores being more severe.
Measured: After medication to 60 weeks
Change of body surface area from baseline in moderate to severe atopic dermatitis
The researchers used a nine-point scale to assess the percentage of AD affected area in the whole body (0-100%), with the larger the value, the more severe the involvement.
Measured: After medication to 60 weeks
Change rate of atopic dermatitis score (SCORAD) from baseline
According to the involvement of skin surface area, the severity of skin lesions and the subjective symptom score, the higher the value, the more severe the dermatitis.
Measured: After medication to 60 weeks
Change in daily Peak Itch Digital Rating Scale (NRS) score from baseline
Rate the most severe itching in the past 24 hours on a scale of 0-10, with higher numbers being more severe.
Measured: After medication to 60 weeks
Rate of change in dermatological quality of life (DLQI) score from baseline
Assess how much the skin problems of the last week have affected the subjects' lives
Measured: After medication to 60 weeks
Change in patients' self-assessment of eczema (POEM) from baseline
The number of days in the past 7 days to assess whether eczema caused skin problems such as itching and bleeding, 0 indicates no days, 1 indicates 1-2 days, 2 indicates 3-4 days, 3 indicates 5-6 days, and 4 indicates all days.
Measured: After medication to 60 weeks

A Phase 3 study testing TQH2722 injection in people with Atopic Dermatitis, run by Shanghai Chia Tai Tianqing Pharmaceutical Technology Development Co., Ltd. at 73 sites in China.
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 4 inclusion and 21 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: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Apr 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 73 sites in China. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
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?
Participants who achieved EASI-75 (≥75% improvement from baseline) on the eczema Area and Severity score (EASI) (time frame: Baseline to 16 weeks after treatment). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 20 Apr 2026.
