入选标准

  • Inclusion criteria for patients with atopic dermatitis:
  • Outpatient at screening
  • Adult male >20 years old
  • Diagnosis of AD fulfilling the Hannifin and Rajka criteria
  • Mild to moderate AD (Investigator Global Assessment [IGA] 2-3; localized eczema area and severity index [EASI] 1-8)
  • AD affecting both arms and/or legs >10cm2 per target area
  • Willing to undergo 4 mm serial punch biopsies
  • Patient history of AD for at least 3 years
  • Inclusion criteria for healthy volunteers:
  • Volunteers must be males >20 years of age
  • Volunteers must be in good health, as determined by past medical history, physical examination, and vital signs

排除标准

  • Exclusion criteria for patients with atopic dermatitis:
  • Concurrent diseases/conditions and history of other diseases/conditions
  • Are immunocompromised or have a history of malignant disease
  • Have a history of rheumatic fever, heart valve replacement, prosthetic joints or other prosthetic constituents
  • Have concurrent skin disease (e.g. acne) of such severity in the study area that it could interfere with the study evaluation
  • Have previously reported poor or no clinical response to topical tacrolimus ointment (Protopic®) or pimecrolimus cream (Elidel®)
  • Have active skin infections
  • Present with clinical conditions other than atopic dermatitis that can interfere with the study treatment
  • Present with severe medical condition(s) that, in the opinion of the investigator, prohibits participation in the study
  • Are maintained on emollients that contain supplementary ingredients such as urea, alpha or beta-hydroxy acids, fruit acids, vitamins A, D or E
  • Have received phototherapy (e.g. UVA, UVB) or systemic therapy (e.g. immunosuppressants, cytostatics) known or suspected to have an effect on AD within 4 weeks of Visit 1 (screening)
  • Have received systemic corticosteroids ([CS] e.g. oral, intravenous, intraarticular, rectal) within 4 weeks of Visit 1 (screening). Patients on a stable maintenance dose of inhaled or intranasal CS may participate
  • Were treated with topical therapy, including topical calcineurin inhibitors (e.g. corticosteroids, tar) known or suspected to have an effect on AD during the current acute episode
  • Were treated with antihistamines within 7 days of Visit 1
  • Known serious adverse reactions or hypersensitivity to anesthetics such as lidocaine or mepivacaine
  • Excluded investigational drugs/hypersensitivity
  • Have received investigational drugs within 8 weeks of the first application of study drug or planned use of other investigational drugs during participation in this study
  • Have known hypersensitivity to any ingredient of the pimecrolimus cream 1% or this class of study drug
  • Exclusion criteria for healthy volunteers:
  • Erythrodermic patients, patients with Netherton's syndrome
  • Personal or family history of atopy (asthma, allergic rhinitis, atopic dermatitis)
  • Clinically significant findings during the physical examination
  • Have a history of rheumatic fever, heart valve replacement, prosthetic joints or other prosthetic constituents e.g. lens implants or hip joints
  • Volunteers with known serious adverse reactions or hypersensitivity to anesthetics such as lidocaine or mepivacaine
  • Participation in any clinical trial within one month prior to current trial
  • History of immunocompromise
  • History of positive hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) or hepatitis C test result
  • Use of corticosteroids within 4 weeks prior to baseline
  • Were treated with antihistamines within 7 days of Visit 1
  • Phototherapy within 4 weeks prior to baseline
  • Topical therapy within 5 weeks prior to the study
  • Treatment with nephrotoxic drugs within 2 weeks prior to baseline (aminoglycosides, amphotericin B, colchicine)
