Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Bermekimab in Patients With Moderate to Severe Atopic Dermatitis (NCT NCT04021862)
NCT ID: NCT04021862
Last Updated: 2025-02-04
Results Overview
Percentage of participants achieving EASI-75 at Week 16 were reported. EASI-75 response was defined as at least 75% improvement from baseline in EASI total score. The EASI score was used to measure the severity and extent of atopic dermatitis (AD) and measures erythema, infiltration/papulation, excoriation and lichenification on 4 anatomic regions of the body: head/neck, trunk, upper and lower extremities. The severity of the clinical signs of AD for each of 4 body regions was scored on a 4-point scale: 0=absent, 1=mild, 2=moderate and 3=severe. The total EASI score is the sum of four body-region scores ranged from 0 (minimum) to 72 (maximum) points, with the higher scores reflecting the worse severity of AD. This outcome measure was planned to be analyzed for specified arms only.

PRIMARY outcome
Timeframe: Week 16Population: Full analysis set (FAS) included all randomized participants who received at least 1 dose of study agent.
Percentage of participants achieving EASI-75 at Week 16 were reported. EASI-75 response was defined as at least 75% improvement from baseline in EASI total score. The EASI score was used to measure the severity and extent of atopic dermatitis (AD) and measures erythema, infiltration/papulation, excoriation and lichenification on 4 anatomic regions of the body: head/neck, trunk, upper and lower extremities. The severity of the clinical signs of AD for each of 4 body regions was scored on a 4-point scale: 0=absent, 1=mild, 2=moderate and 3=severe. The total EASI score is the sum of four body-region scores ranged from 0 (minimum) to 72 (maximum) points, with the higher scores reflecting the worse severity of AD. This outcome measure was planned to be analyzed for specified arms only.

SECONDARY outcome
Timeframe: Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16 and 32Population: FAS included all randomized participants who received at least 1 dose of study agent. Here, N (number of participants analyzed) signifies participants who were evaluated for this outcome measure, n (number analyzed) signifies number of participants who were analyzed at the specified timepoints and '0' in the number analyzed field signifies that none of the participants were evaluable at the specified timepoint.
Percentage of participants achieving greater than or equal to (\>=4) point improvement (reduction from baseline) in weekly average peak (worst) daily pruritus NRS score from baseline at Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16 and 32 among participants with a baseline score \>=4 were reported. The eczema skin pain and itch NRS is a 2-item patient-reported outcome that participants used to rate the severity of their eczema-related skin pain and eczema related itch daily. To rate the severity of eczema-related itch participants were asked the following question: please rate the severity of your eczema-related itch at its worst in the past 24 hours. The response was rated on a 0 to 10 NRS ranging from 0 "none" to 10 "worst possible". Higher score indicated more severity. Seven daily average NRS scores are into a weekly score.

Percentage of participants achieving EASI-75 response at Weeks 4, 8, 12, and 32 were reported. EASI-75 response was defined as at least 75% improvement from baseline in EASI total score. The EASI score was used to measure the severity and extent of AD and measures erythema, infiltration/papulation, excoriation and lichenification on 4 anatomic regions of the body: head/neck, trunk, upper and lower extremities. The severity of the clinical signs of AD for each of 4 body regions was scored on a 4-point scale: 0=absent, 1=mild, 2=moderate and 3=severe. The total EASI score is the sum of four body-region scores ranged from 0 (minimum) to 72 (maximum) points, with the higher scores reflecting the worse severity of AD.

The DLQI is a 10-item, validated questionnaire used in clinical practice and clinical trials to assess the impact of AD disease symptoms and treatment on quality of life (QOL). The format is a simple response (0 to 3 where 0 is "not at all" and 3 is "very much") to 10 questions, which assess QOL over the past week, with an overall scoring system of 0 to 30. The DLQI is calculated by summing the score of each question resulting in a maximum of 30 and a minimum of 0. A higher score indicates more severe disease and poor QoL.

The HADS is an instrument for screening anxiety and depression in non-psychiatric populations; repeated administration also provides information about changes to a participant's emotional state. The HADS is a 14-item self-administered questionnaire, 7 each for anxiety and depression symptoms. Each item is scored from 0-3, resulting in total anxiety score ranging from 0 (less severity of anxiety) to 21 (greater severity of anxiety). Higher score indicated more anxiety symptoms. The following cut-off scores are recommended: 7 to 8 for possible presence, 10 to 11 for probable presence, and 14 to 15 for severe anxiety.

The HADS is a 14-item self-administered questionnaire, and consists of 7 items each for anxiety and depression symptoms. Each item is scored from 0-3, resulting in total depression score ranging from 0 (less severity of depression) to 21 (greater severity of depression). Higher score indicated more depression symptoms. The following cut-off scores are recommended: 7 to 8 for possible presence, 10 to 11 for probable presence, and 14 to 15 for severe depression.

SECONDARY outcome
Timeframe: Baseline, Weeks 8, 12, 16, and 32Population: FAS; N (number of participants analyzed)=participants evaluated for this outcome measure, n (number analyzed)=participants analyzed at specified timepoints, 0=no participant analyzed. Week 16 data were collected and analyzed only for placebo crossover participants during active treatment period as pre-planned. For active treatment period assessments, participants who discontinued placebo controlled period in Bermekimab 400 mg q2w and Bermekimab 400 mg qw arms were also included as pre-planned.
The POEM is a 7-item, validated questionnaire used to assess disease symptoms in both children and adults. Participants respond to 7 questions, including dryness, itching, flaking, cracking, sleep loss, bleeding, and weeping, each scored on a 5-point scale based on frequency of occurrence during the previous week: 0 = no days, 1 = 1 to 2 days, 2 = 3 to 4 days, 3 = 5 to 6 days, and 4 = all days. Item scores are added to provide a total score ranging from 0 (clear) to 28 (very severe atopic eczema). Higher scores indicated more severe disease and poor quality of life.

SCORAD is a validated scoring index for AD, which consists of 3 components that is A =extent or affected body surface area assessed as percentage of each defined body area and reported as the sum of all areas, with a maximum score of 100%. B=severity of 6 specific symptoms of AD (redness, swelling, oozing/crusting, excoriation, skin thickening/lichenification, dryness) assessed using the following scale: none (0), mild (1), moderate (2), or severe (3) (for a maximum of 18 total points) and C=subjective symptoms scored by participants on visual analogue scale, where "0" is no itch (or no sleeplessness) and "10" is worst imaginable itch (or sleeplessness) with a maximum score of 20. SCORAD total score was calculated using these 3 aspects: extent (A: 0-100), severity (B: 0-18), and subjective symptoms (C: 0-20) using the formula: A/5 + 7\*B/2+ C to give the SCORAD total score range of 0 to 103, where 0 = no disease to 103 = severe disease. Higher values of SCORAD represent worse outcome.

GISS assesses AD lesions for erythema, excoriations, lichenification and edema/papulation. Each component was rated on a global basis (over the entire body surface rather than region) using a 4-point scale (0=none, 1=mild, 2=moderate and 3=severe) according to the EASI grading severity. The cumulative score, which ranges from 0 to 12, is the sum of the four components. A higher score indicates more severe disease.
