- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Subjects With at Least 75% Reduction in Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI75) at Week 16 At Week 16 The 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 and/or more extensive condition.
Subjects With Investigator's Global Assessment (IGA) Score of 0 (Clear) or 1 (Almost Clear) at Week 16 At Week 16 The IGA is an instrument used in clinical trials to rate the severity of the subject's global AD and is based on a 5-point scale ranging from 0 (clear) to 4 (severe).
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Subjects With Reduction of Adolescent Worst Pruritus Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) (Weekly Average) of at Least 4 From Baseline to Week 16 At Week 16 The Adolescent Worst Pruritus NRS is used by subjects to assess their worst itch over the past 24 hours using an 11-point NRS with 0 indicating 'no itch' and 10 indicating 'worst itch possible'.
Change in Scoring Atopic Dermatitis (SCORAD) From Baseline to Week 16 From Week 0 to Week 16 The SCORAD is a validated tool to evaluate the extent and severity of AD lesions, along with subjective symptoms. The maximum total score is 103, with higher values indicating more severe disease.
Number of Adverse Events From Week 0 to Week 16 Number of AEs during the Initial treatment period is presented. For a summary of AEs and SAEs by MedDRA system organ class (SOC) and preferred term (PT) during the initial treatment period, maintenance treatment period, open-label treatment period, and safety follow-up period, see the Adverse Events Overview section.
Subjects With at Least 75% Reduction in Scoring Atopic Dermatitis (SCORAD75) at Week 16 At Week 16 The SCORAD is a validated tool to evaluate the extent and severity of atopic dermatitis lesions, along with subjective symptoms. The score ranges from 0 to 103, with a higher values indicating a more extensive and/or severe condition.
Participants With Reduction of Adolescent Worst Pruritus Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) (Weekly Average) of at Least 3 From Baseline to Week 16 At Week 16 The Adolescent Worst Pruritus NRS is used by subjects to assess their worst itch over the past 24 hours using an 11-point NRS with 0 indicating 'no itch' and 10 indicating 'worst itch possible'.
Subjects With at Least 75% Reduction in Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI75) at Week 52 Among Subjects With at Least 75% Reduction in EASI at Week 16 After Initial Randomisation to Tralokinumab and Without Use of Rescue From Week 2 to Week 16 At Week 52 The 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 and/or more extensive condition.
Change in Children's Dermatology Life Quality Index (CDLQI) Score From Baseline to Week 16 From Week 0 to Week 16 The CDLQI is a validated questionnaire with content specific to those with dermatology conditions. It consists of 10 items addressing the subject's perception of the impact of their skin disease on various aspects of their quality of life over the last week such as dermatology-related symptoms and feelings, leisure, school or holidays, personal relationships, sleep, and the treatment. Each item is scored on a 4-point Likert scale (0 = 'not at all'; 1 = 'only a little'; 2 = 'quite a lot'; 3 = 'very much'). Item 7 (on school time) has one additional response category 'prevented school', which is also scored '3'. The total score of the CDLQI is the sum of the 10 items (0 to 30); a high score is indicative of a poor quality of life.
Presence of Anti-drug Antibodies From Week 0 to Week 16 Anti-tralokinumab antibody levels were analysed using a validated bioanalytical method.
Subjects With at Least 50% Reduction in Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI50) at Week 16. At Week 16 The 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 and/or more extensive condition.
Subjects With at Least 90% Reduction in Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI90) at Week 16. At Week 16 The 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 and/or more extensive condition.
Change in Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) Score From Baseline to Week 16 From Week 0 to Week 16 The 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 and/or more extensive condition.
Subjects With at Least 50% Reduction in Scoring Atopic Dermatitis (SCORAD50) at Week 16 At Week 16 The SCORAD is a validated tool to evaluate the extent and severity of atopic dermatitis lesions, along with subjective symptoms. The score ranges from 0 to 103, with a higher values indicating a more extensive and/or severe condition.
Change in Adolescent Worst Pruritus Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) (Weekly Average) From Baseline to Week 16 From Week 0 to Week 16 The Adolescent Worst Pruritus NRS is used by subjects to assess their worst itch over the past 24 hours using an 11-point NRS with 0 indicating 'no itch' and 10 indicating 'worst itch possible'.
Change in Patient Oriented Eczema Measure (POEM) From Baseline to Week 16 From Week 0 to Week 16 The POEM is a validated questionnaire used to assess disease symptoms in atopic eczema patients in both clinical practice and clinical trials. The tool consists of 7 items each addressing a specific symptom (itching, sleep, bleeding, weeping, cracking, flaking, and dryness). Subjects will score how often they have experienced each symptom over the previous week on a 5-point categorical response scale (0 = 'no days'; 1 = '1 to 2 days'; 2 = '3 to 4 days'; 3 = '5 to 6' days; 4 = 'every day'). The total score is the sum of the 7 items (range 0 to 28) and reflects disease-related morbidity; a high score is indicative of a worse disease severity.

Tralokinumab Serum Trough Concentration at Week 66 At Week 66 Serum samples for determination of tralokinumab concentrations were analysed by a laboratory using a validated bioanalytical method.
Subjects With Investigator's Global Assessment (IGA) Score of 0 (Clear) or 1 (Almost Clear) at Week 52 Among Subjects With IGA Score of 0 or 1 at Week 16 After Initial Randomisation to Tralokinumab and Without Use of Rescue From Week 2 to Week 16 At Week 52 The IGA is an instrument used in clinical trials to rate the severity of the subject's global AD and is based on a 5-point scale ranging from 0 (clear) to 4 (severe).
