- Subjects who have a documented history of inadequate response to treatment with TCS (at any time within 1 year before the screening visit - see protocol for definition of inadequate response) or for whom TCS are documented to be otherwise medically inadvisable (e.g. due to important side effects or safety risks - see protocol for definition or important side effects or safety risks).

Exclusion Criteria

- Concurrent skin disease on the hands, e.g tinea manuum.
- Clinically significant infection (e.g. impetiginised hand eczema) on the hands.
- Systemic treatment with immunosuppressive drugs (e.g. methotrexate, cyclosporine, azathioprine), immunomodulating drugs, retinoids (e.g. alitretinoin), or corticosteroids within 28 days prior to baseline (steroid eyedrops and inhaled or intranasal steroids corresponding to up to 1 mg prednisolone for allergic conjunctivitis, asthma, or rhinitis are allowed).

- Use of systemic antibiotics or cutaneously applied antibiotics on the hands within 14 days prior to baseline.
- Other cutaneously applied therapy on the hands (except for the use of subject’s own emollients) within 7 days prior to baseline.
- Cutaneously applied treatments in regions other than the hands, which could interfere with clinical trial evaluations or pose a safety concern within 7 days prior to baseline.
- Any disorder which is not stable and could affect the safety of the subject throughout the trial or impede the subject’s ability to complete the trial.
