About this trial

This is a Phase 2, two-stage, adaptive, 1:1 randomized, double-blind, vehicle-controlled clinical study evaluating the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of GX-03 topical ointment in adult subjects with atopic dermatitis (eczema).

Stage 1 (Completed):

Stage 1 comprised an initial cohort of 50 subjects evaluated through Week 8. Following a pre-specified interim analysis conducted under the supervision of Independent Data Monitoring Committee (IDMC), treatment-response patterns, safety profiles, and endpoint parameters were assessed to optimize enrollment criteria and outcome measures for Stage 2.

Stage 2 (Active/Recruiting):

Stage 2 plans to enroll approximately 135 subjects across three baseline EASI severity strata (1.1 to 7.0, 7.1 to 15.9, and 16.0 and above) with a target of at least 120 subjects completing the 8-week treatment period. Enrollment for Stage 2 is specifically enriched for subjects presenting with significant pruritus (baseline Peak Pruritus Numeric Rating Scale \[PP-NRS\] of 7 or more) and baseline EASI of 1.1 or more.
