HSK44459-Dose level 1HSK44459Participants will receive HSK44459 for 12 weeks

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percent change from baseline to week 12 in EASIFrom Day 1 (first dose) to Day 85 (week 12)

Evaluate the clinical efficacy of 2 dose levels of HSK44459, compared to placebo, in adult participants with atopic dermatitis (AD) using EASI.

A total EASI score range from 0 to 72 points will be recorded for each assessment, with higher scores reflecting worse severity of AD

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Proportion of patients with EASI-75 at week 12From Day 1 (first dose) to Day 85 (week 12)

Proportion of patients with EASI-75 (≥75% improvement from baseline) at week 12

Proportion of patients with both IGA 0 to 1and a reduction from baseline of ≥2 points at week 12From Day 1 (first dose) to Day 85 (week 12)

The IGA determines severity of AD and clinical response to treatment on a 5-point scale

0 = Clear

1. = Almost clear

2. = Mild

3. = Moderate

4. = Severe

Proportion of patients with reduction of pruritus WI-NRS ≥3 or WI-NRS ≥4 from baseline to week 12From Day 1 (first dose) to Day 85 (week 12)

The WI-NRS ranges from 0 = "no itch" to 10 ="worst imaginable itch" for the worst intensity itch in the preceding 24-hour period.
