Brief Summary

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

This is a double-blind, randomized, vehicle controlled Phase 3 study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of topical tapinarof cream, 1% compared to vehicle control cream in pediatric and adult subjects with atopic dermatitis.

Detailed Description

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

This study is a 8-week double-blind, vehicle-controlled treatment study in which subjects will be randomized to receive tapinarof cream, 1% or vehicle cream once daily for 8 weeks. At the end of the 8-week study treatment, qualified subjects will have the option to enroll in an open-label, long-term extension study for an additional 48 weeks of treatment. Subjects who do not participate in the open-label, long-term extension study will complete a follow-up visit approximately one week after the end of treatment in this study.
