Summary

This trial aims to test the safety and effectiveness of using tralokinumab injections along with topical corticosteroids to treat moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis in children and infants. The

Who is the study for?
This trial is for children and infants aged 6 months to under 12 years with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (eczema) who haven't improved with mid-strength topical corticosteroids. They must weigh at least 9 kg, have had AD for a minimum of 3-12 months depending on age, and show significant itchiness or scratching.
What is being tested?
The trial tests if tralokinumab injections plus topical corticosteroids are more effective than placebo plus TCS in treating eczema. Children will be randomly assigned to treatments for the first 16 weeks; then all get tralokinumab + TCS. Infants receive only the actual drug from the start.
What are the potential side effects?
Tralokinumab may cause injection site reactions, eye inflammation, allergic reactions, and infections. Topical corticosteroids can thin the skin, cause discoloration, or lead to hormone level changes.
