IMG-007 for Eczema
(ADAPTIVE Trial)
What You Need to Know Before You Apply
What is the purpose of this trial?
This trial tests a new treatment called IMG-007, an experimental therapy, to evaluate its effectiveness and safety for people with eczema, a condition causing itchy and inflamed skin. Researchers compare different doses of IMG-007 to a placebo, which contains no active drug, to identify the best option. Candidates for this trial have moderate-to-severe eczema and have not responded to other skin treatments. As a Phase 2 trial, this research measures the treatment's effectiveness in an initial, smaller group, offering participants a chance to contribute to important advancements in eczema treatment.
Do I need to stop my current medications to join the trial?
The trial information does not specify if you need to stop your current medications. It's best to discuss this with the trial team or your doctor.
Is there any evidence suggesting that IMG-007 is likely to be safe for humans?
Research has shown that IMG-007 has been safe in previous studies. In one study, healthy participants took single doses of IMG-007 up to 600 mg, and these doses were well-tolerated and remained in the body for an extended period. Another study found that the form of IMG-007 administered under the skin was also safe and demonstrated strong safety results. While these findings are encouraging, it is important to remember that this trial is still in the early stages of testing for eczema. Safety information is still being collected, but no major safety issues have been reported so far.12345
Why are researchers excited about this trial's treatments?
Researchers are excited about IMG-007 for eczema because it offers a fresh approach by targeting specific pathways in the immune system. Unlike current treatments like topical corticosteroids or calcineurin inhibitors, which mainly reduce inflammation, IMG-007 is a biologic that modulates immune responses more precisely, potentially reducing flare-ups and skin irritation with fewer side effects. Additionally, its subcutaneous injection delivery method ensures that the medication is efficiently absorbed, which could lead to quicker and more consistent relief for patients. This innovative mechanism and delivery method position IMG-007 as a promising new option in eczema care.
What evidence suggests that IMG-007 might be an effective treatment for eczema?
Studies have shown that IMG-007 can effectively treat eczema. In a previous study, using IMG-007 for 4 weeks led to a 77% reduction in the size and severity of eczema, as measured by a standard tool. Additionally, 54% of patients experienced at least a 75% improvement in their eczema. IMG-007 targets a specific part of the immune system to help reduce inflammation. These early results suggest that IMG-007 has the potential to significantly improve eczema symptoms.12467
