Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study will compare the safety and efficacy of Oral DS107 (2 g) to placebo in patients with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis.

Oral DS107 (2 g) will be orally administered for 8 weeks, and will be compared against placebo.

This study will enroll approximately 100 adult patients.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Subjects will come to the clinic on 6 occasions: at screening, baseline, week 2, week 4, week 8 (end of treatment/early termination) and week 10 (follow-up). The primary efficacy variable will be the IGA. Secondary efficacy variables will include IGA (Investigator's Global Assessment), SCORAD (Scoring Atopic Dermatitis) Visual Analog Scale (VAS), EASI, BSA (Body Surface Area), POEM (Patient Orientated Eczema Measure), DLQI (Dermatology Life Quality Index).
