Clinical trial

Quantification of Improvement In Scratch Behavior And Sleep In Patients With Atopic Dermatitis on Crisaborole Ointment, 2%

Name
H-42240
Description
This single blind study is to primarily evaluate wearable devices and Observer Reported Itch Assessment in children to assess reduction of itch and night-time scratch in response to Crisaborole treatment vs. vehicle treatment (active control comparator without crisaborole) in children with atopic dermatitis (AD). Participants, age 3 months to 11 years with symptomatic mild to moderate AD, along with their primary caregivers will be recruited. The goal of this study is to more fully evaluate the rapid onset of night-time itch and scratch relief, as well as improvements in sleep following treatment with Crisaborole in comparison to vehicle treatment in children with AD. the study will also assess the quality of life (QoL) and sleep within the associated caregivers.

Treatment
Crisaborole 2%
The adult caregiver will apply a thin layer of Crisaborole 2% topically on their child participant twice a day for 2 weeks.
Arms:
Crisaborole 2%
Other names:
EUCRISA
Vehicle treatment
The adult caregiver will apply a thin layer of the vehicle treatment topically on their child participant twice a day for 2 weeks. The vehicle treatment is made of excipients of crisaborole ointment (non-medicated ointment).
Arms:
Vehicle Arm
Other names:
Nonmedicated ointment
Accelerometry device for children
Children participants will wear two wrist worn (or wrist worn AND ankle worn for 3 months up to \<2 years) accelerometry devices. Devices will be optional for child participants who have active AD on location of device placement, with a minimum of at least one wrist device needed for enrollment.
Arms:
Crisaborole 2%, Vehicle Arm
Accelerometry device for adult caregivers
Adult caregiver participants will wear two accelerometry devices (one on each wrist) and complete daily assessments related to scratching, sleeping habits, pain, AD severity, quality of life, and device comfort questionnaires.
Arms:
Crisaborole 2%, Vehicle Arm

Eligibility criteria
Inclusion Criteria for Children (3 months to ≤ 11 years): 1. Male or female participants aged between ≥3 months of age and ≤ 11 years of age at Day -7. 2. Written informed consent from participant/parent(s)/guardian(s). 3. Native English speakers or demonstrated fluency in English (as age appropriate). 4. Participants and parent(s)/guardian(s) are willing and able to comply with study instructions, study visits, procedures, and device placement (devices will be optional for those who have active AD on location of device placement, with a minimum of at least one wrist device needed for enrollment). 5. Have a clinical diagnosis of AD according to the criteria of Hanifin and Rajka. 6. Have AD involvement ≥ 5% Treatable % Body Surface Area (BSA) excluding the scalp and less than 40% BSA. 7. Have an Investigator's Static Global Assessment (ISGA) score of Mild (2) or Moderate (3) at the baseline visit. 8. Have an Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) total score of ≥3 at Day -7. 9. Have a minimum Observer Reported Itch Assessment score of 2 at Day -7 (ages 3 months - ≤ 5 years only) or a minimum Patient Reported Itch Severity Scale score of 2 (ages 6 years - ≤ 11 years old) at Day -7. 10. Participant/parent(s)/guardian(s) agrees to refrain from applying diaper rash creams, lotions, ointments, powders, etc. where AD lesions are present, unless AD lesions are present where crisaborole cannot be applied (face within 1 or 2 fingers away from the mouth and hands/fingers). 11. Participants must agree to refrain from applying crisaborole/vehicle to AD lesions on the fingers or hands or within 1 or 2 fingers away from the the mouth to prevent inadvertent ingestion of ointment. Inclusion Criteria for Adult Caregiver (18-75 years): 1. Primary caregiver of the enrolled child participant, between ≥18 years of age and ≤75 years of age. 2. Able to understand and cooperate with study procedures and give informed consent. 3. Native English speakers or demonstrated fluency in English 4. Evidence of a personally signed and dated informed consent document indicating that the participant has been informed of all pertinent aspects of the study. 5. ISGA score of 0 or 1 of AD at the screening visit, and no reported diagnosis of Atopic Dermatitis 6. WRAT-4 Word Reading Subtest equivalent to 8th grade reading level or greater. Exclusion Criteria for Children: 1. Has any clinically significant medical disorder, condition, disease (including active or potentially recurrent non-AD dermatological conditions and known genetic dermatological conditions that overlap with AD, such as Netherton syndrome) or clinically significant finding at baseline that precludes participant's participation in study activities. 2. Participants who are on systemic corticosteroids or immunosuppressive agents within 28 days of Day -7 (V01). 3. 3. Participants who are on topical AD treatment such as low-to-high-potency corticosteroids, TCIs, antihistamines, antibiotics, sodium hypochlorite-based products, antibacterial soaps, bleach baths, diaper rash creams, lotions, ointments, powders, light therapy, and use of bland emollients on or overlapping with treatable AD-involved areas within 7 days of Day -7 (V01), unless AD lesions are present where crisaborole cannot be applied (face within 1 or 2 fingers away from the of mouth and hands/fingers). 4. Participants who are or have been on crisaborole treatment regimen in the past. 5. Allergy to polyurethane resin (strap/wristband component), skin nickel allergy, silicone, and/or adhesives. 6. Has documented non-AD related insomnia, sleep apnea or other sleep-related disorders (e.g., narcolepsy, restless legs syndrome, circadian rhythm disorder). 7. Participant has a known lack of efficacy to crisaborole. 8. Participant scores \<20 on the Childhood Asthma Control Test (ages 4-≤ 11) indicating poorly controlled asthma. 9.
