What this Trial Is About
Researchers are evaluating how different doses of galvokimig compare with a placebo in adults with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis, a chronic skin condition. This Phase 2 study aims to understand the relationship between the dose given and its effects on the condition, focusing on safety, how the drug moves through and acts in the body, and its overall impact on the disease. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive one of three different doses of galvokimig or a placebo during the initial treatment period. After 16 weeks, participants will either continue on the same dose or switch to a modified dose based on the study plan. Galvokimig and placebo are given as injections, and the study is designed to be double-blind, meaning neither participants nor researchers know who receives which treatment during the initial phase. During the study, participants will be regularly evaluated for changes in their eczema severity, itch intensity, and overall response to treatment using specific scales like the Eczema Area and Severity Index EASI and Peak Pruritus Numerical Rating Scale PP-NRS. Safety is closely monitored through reports of adverse events up to week 58. The study lasts at least 16 weeks with ongoing assessments to track treatment effects and safety over time.

- Participant must be aged 18 years or older at the time of signing informed consent
- Diagnosis of chronic atopic dermatitis for at least 1 year according to American Academy of Dermatology criteria
- Validated Investigator Global Assessment (vIGA) score of 3 or higher at Screening and Baseline
- Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) score of 16 or higher at Screening and Baseline
- Peak Pruritus Numerical Rating Scale (PP-NRS) score of 4 or higher at Screening and Baseline
- Atopic dermatitis involvement of at least 10% body surface area at Screening and Baseline
- Documented history within 6 months prior to Screening of inadequate response to topical treatments or topical treatments medically inadvisable, and candidate for systemic therapy
You will not qualify if you...
- Any medical or psychiatric condition, lab test result, physical exam finding, or ECG signal that poses risk or interferes with study participation
- Active skin conditions that could confuse atopic dermatitis diagnosis or assessment, including scabies, seborrheic dermatitis, cutaneous lymphoma, ichthyosis, psoriasis, or active allergic or irritant contact dermatitis
- Personal or first-degree family history of inflammatory bowel disease (Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis)
- History of chronic, recurrent, or serious infections within 6 months prior to Baseline
- Meeting tuberculosis exclusion criteria
- Prior treatment with galvokimig
- Safety issues causing discontinuation of interleukin-13 biologic treatments like dupilumab, tralokinumab, or lebrikizumab
- Use of systemic therapies (other than biologics), topical therapies, or other atopic dermatitis treatments within 4 weeks prior to Baseline
- Use of biologic agents within 3 months prior to Baseline
