EASE Trial Summary

This trial will study if a new drug can help people with a skin condition called atopic dermatitis.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for people with atopic dermatitis (eczema) covering 3-20% of their body and a moderate to severe score on a skin assessment. They must have had eczema for at least one year but can't join if they need antibiotics for an infection or have other itchy skin diseases.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests EP262, an oral medication, against a placebo (a pill without active medicine). Participants won't know which one they're taking. The goal is to see how safe EP262 is and how it affects the body in those with eczema.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects are not detailed here, but generally could include reactions related to the immune system since EP262 targets atopic dermatitis, which involves immune dysregulation.
