A phase 2b, randomized, double-blind, multicenter, vehicle-controlled study to assess the efficacy and safety of two crisaborole regimens in Japanese patients aged 2 years and older with mild-to-moderate atopic dermatitis.

ABSTRACT: Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease characterized by pruritus, xerosis, and eczematous lesions. In Japan, treatment options, such as topical corticosteroids and tacrolimus, are associated with efficacy and safety concerns. Crisaborole ointment, 2%, is a topical non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent approved in several countries for the treatment of mild-to-moderate AD.
