Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Bermekimab

Intervention Type DRUG

Bermekimab will be administered subcutaneously.

Group 3: Bermekimab

Participants will receive SC bermekimab Dose 2 qw from Week 0 through Week 15. At Week 16, participants who achieve an eczema area and severity index (EASI)-75 response (responders) will be rerandomized either to continue to receive bermekimab Dose 2 qw, or to receive bermekimab Dose 1 qw, through Week 31 and participants who do not achieve an EASI-75 response (non responders) will continue to receive bermekimab Dose 2 qw through Week 31.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Bermekimab

Intervention Type DRUG

Bermekimab will be administered subcutaneously.

Group 4: Dupilumab

Participants will receive a loading dose of SC dupilumab Dose 1 at Week 0, SC placebo every two week (q2w) from Week 1 through Week 15 and then dupilumab Dose 2 q2w from Week 2 through Week 14. At Week 16, participants who achieve EASI-75 response (dupilumab responders) will continue on dupilumab Dose 2 q2w through Week 30 and placebo q2w from Week 17 through Week 31. Participants who do not achieve an EASI-75 response (dupilumab non-responders) will receive placebo qw from Week 16 through Week 18 (washout period) and bermekimab Dose 2 qw from Week 19 through Week 31.

* Be considered, in the opinion of the investigator, a suitable candidate for dupilumab (DUPIXENT) therapy according to their country's approved DUPIXENT product labeling
* Have an eczema area and severity index (EASI) score greater than or equal (\>=) to 16 at screening and at baseline
* Have an investigator global assessment (IGA) score \>=3 and involved body surface area (BSA) \>=10 percent (%) at screening and baseline

Exclusion Criteria

* Has a current diagnosis or signs or symptoms of severe, progressive, or uncontrolled renal, cardiac, vascular, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, endocrine, neurologic, hematologic, rheumatologic, psychiatric, or metabolic disturbances
