- Arm && Interventions
Group Intervention Description Group 1: Lebrikizumab Dose Level 1 Monotherapy Lebrikizumab During the 2-week run-in period, participants will receive topical corticosteroid creams to be self-applied two times per day to active skin lesions only. During the 12-week treatment period, lebrikizumab monotherapy will be administered by subcutaneous (SC) injection, but participants assigned to this group will not receive topical corticosteroids. During the 8-week safety follow-up period, all participants will receive topical corticosteroids to be self-applied to active skin lesions as decided by the participant and study investigator. Group 1: Lebrikizumab Dose Level 1 Monotherapy Topical Corticosteroid Creams (Triamcinolone acetonide 0.1% and Hydrocortisone 2.5%) During the 2-week run-in period, participants will receive topical corticosteroid creams to be self-applied two times per day to active skin lesions only. During the 12-week treatment period, lebrikizumab monotherapy will be administered by subcutaneous (SC) injection, but participants assigned to this group will not receive topical corticosteroids. During the 8-week safety follow-up period, all participants will receive topical corticosteroids to be self-applied to active skin lesions as decided by the participant and study investigator. Group 2: Topical Corticosteroid Creams Only Topical Corticosteroid Creams (Triamcinolone acetonide 0.1% and Hydrocortisone 2.5%) During the 2-week run-in period and during the 12-week treatment period, participants assigned to this group will receive topical corticosteroid creams to be self-applied two times per day to active skin lesions only. During the 8-week safety follow-up period, all participants will receive topical corticosteroids to be self-applied to active skin lesions as decided by the participant and study investigator.
