Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Atopic Dermatitis
Interventions
Drug: Placebo Oral Tablet
Registration Number
NCT03531957
Lead Sponsor
Asana BioSciences
Brief Summary

This is a randomized double-blind/placebo study evaluate the efficacy of ASN002 in subjects with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis (AD).

Detailed Description

This is a placebo controlled study where subjects with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis will be randomized (1:1:1:1) to receive ASN002 at 40 mg, 60 mg, or 80 mg, or placebo once daily for 12 weeks. Eligible subjects will get the opportunity to enroll in the 24 month open-label extension study (OLE). There will be a 4-week follow up period for subjects not participating in the OLE study. This study will also characterize the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of ASN002 through blood sampling and three or four biopsies from subjects who consent.

    • Any condition requiring the use of anticoagulants.
    • History of hypertrophic scarring or keloid formation in scars or suture sites.
    • Any medical or psychiatric condition which, in the opinion of the investigator or the sponsor's medical monitor, would place the patient at risk, interfere with participation in the study, or interfere with the interpretation of study results

    • Planned major surgical procedure during the length of the patient's participation in this study
    • There will be a waiting period of 4 weeks before receiving the first does for anyone who has used oral or intravenous treatments (other than biologics) that could affect atopic dermatitis, received a non-biological investigational product or device, excessive sun exposure, is planning a trip to a sunny climate, or has used tanning booths, or received or plans to receive a live attenuated vaccine one four weeks after the last day of taking the drug.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change From Baseline in Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) at Week 12Week 12

The Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) is a composite score ranging from 0 to 72, the higher the value the worse the disease, that takes into account the degree of erythema, induration/infiltration (papules), excoriation, and lichenification (each scored from 0 to 3 separately) for each of four body regions, with adjustment for the percentage of BSA involved for each body region and for the proportion of the body region to the whole body.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percent of Participant With at Least a 75% Reduction From Baseline in Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI75)Week 12

Percent of participants with at least a 75% reduction from baseline in EASI (EASI75) at Week 12

Change From Baseline in Body Surface Area (BSA)Week 12

The overall body surface area (BSA) affected by atopic dermatitis is evaluated (from 0% to 100%).

Percent Change From Baseline in SCORing Atopic Dermatitis (SCORAD)Week 12

In the SCORAD grading system, six items (erythema, edema/papulation, oozing/crusts, excoriation, lichenification, and dryness) evaluate the Atopic Dermatitis severity. The overall body surface area affected by atopic dermatitis was evaluated (from 0% to 100%) and included in the SCORAD scores. Loss of sleep and pruritus were evaluated by subjects on a visual analog scale (0-10) and were based on the average of the last three days/nights. The sum of these measures represented the SCORAD, which could range from 0 to 103. The higher the score the more severe the disease.

Change From Baseline in Patient-Oriented Eczema Measure (POEM)Week 12

The Patient-Oriented Eczema Measure (POEM) is a self-assessment of disease severity by the subject. The POEM has a maximum value of 28 based on the subject's response to seven questions scored from 0 to 4. The higher the value the more severe the disease is.

Change From Baseline in 5-D Pruritus (Itching) ScaleWeek 12

The 5-D Pruritus Scale is a 1-page, 5-question, validated questionnaire used in clinical trials to assess 5 dimensions of background itch: degree, duration, direction, disability, and distribution. Each question corresponds to 1 of the 5 dimensions of itch; subjects rated their symptoms over the preceding 2-week period as "present" or on a 1 to 5 scale, with 5 being the most affected. The total score of 5-D pruritus is a sum of the 5 scores to provide a total score range from 5 (best) to 25 (worst).

Percentage of Participants With a Response of Investigator's Global Assessment (IGA) 0 or 1Week 12

The IGA is a global assessment of the current state of the disease. It is a 5-point (0-4) morphological assessment of overall disease severity. The 0 is the least severe and 4 is the most severe.

Change From Baseline in Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI)Week 12

Dermatology Life Quality Index Questionnaire (DLQI) is a simple 10-question validated questionnaire that has been used in more than 40 different skin conditions. The DLQI total score is defined as the sum of the 10 item scales, ranging from 0 to 30. The higher the value, the more severe the disease is.
