About this trial
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a skin condition characterized by a rash and itching, resulting from skin inflammation. Ivarmacitinib is an approved medication for treating AD.
This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Ivarmacitinib in the treatment of moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis under real-world conditions. It will assess the time to pruritus improvement and skin lesion clearance, collect large-sample safety data, analyze disease improvement across patient subgroups with different baseline characteristics, and explore the impact of various maintenance treatment regimens on disease recurrence.
It is expected that there will be no additional burden for participants in this trial.

Treatments tested in this trial
Ivarmacitinib Sulfate Tablets
DrugPatients with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis are initially treated with 4 mg of ivarmacitinib once daily for 16 weeks. Subsequently, those who respond adequately may transition to an individualized maintenance regimen until week 52.If a suboptimal response is observed with the 4 mg once-daily dose, an increase to 8 mg once daily may be considered. Treatment should be discontinued if an adequate response is not achieved following dose escalation to 8 mg once daily.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Percentage of Participants Achieving at Least a 75% Reduction in Eczema Area and Severity Index Score (EASI 75) From Baseline at Week 16
EASI is a tool used to measure the extent (area) and severity of atopic dermatitis based on assessments of the head/ neck, trunk, upper limbs and lower limbs. For each region the area score is recorded as the percentage of skin affected by eczema. For each region, the severity score is calculated as the sum of the intensity scores (scored as none \[0\], mild \[1\], moderate \[2\], or severe \[3\]) for redness , thickness, scratching, and lichenification. The total EASI score for each region is calculated by multiplying the severity score by the area score, with adjustment for the proportion of the body region to the whole body. The final EASI score is the sum of the 4 region scores and ranges from 0 to 72 where higher scores represent worse disease.
Secondary outcomes
Time to achieve a ≥4-point improvement from baseline in the Worst Itch Numerical Rating Scale (WI-NRS).
Participants were asked to rate itch (pruritus) intensity at its worst during the past 24 hours on a daily basis using an 11-point scale from 0 (no itch) to 10 (worst imaginable itch).
The proportion of patients achieving an Investigator's Global Assessment (IGA) response at each scheduled visit, defined as an IGA score of 0 or 1 with at least a 2-point reduction from baseline.
The IGA is a validated assessment instrument to rate the severity of atopic dermatitis globally, based on the following scale: 0 - Clear: No inflammatory signs of AD; 1. \- Almost clear: Barely perceptible erythema, induration/papulation and/or lichenification, no oozing or crusting; 2. \- Mild: Slight but definite erythema, induration/papulation and/or minimal lichenification, no oozing or crusting; 3. \- Moderate: Clearly perceptible erythema, induration/papulation and/or lichenification, oozing or crusting may be present; 4. \- Severe: Marked erythema, induration/papulation and/or lichenification; Oozing or crusting may be present.
The proportion of subjects achieving EASI 75 at each scheduled visit.
Percentage of Participants Achieving a Reduction of ≥ 4 Points From Baseline in Patient Oriented Eczema Measure (POEM) Total Score
The POEM is a 7-item, validated questionnaire used to assess disease symptoms in both children and adults. Participants respond to 7 questions, including dryness, itching, flaking, cracking, sleep loss, bleeding, and weeping, each scored on a 5-point scale based on frequency of occurrence during the previous week: 0 = no days, 1 = 1 to 2 days, 2 = 3 to 4 days, 3 = 5 to 6 days, and 4 = all days. Item scores are added to provide a total score ranging from 0 (clear) to 28 (very severe atopic eczema). A change in POEM score of 3.4 points is considered the minimal clinically important difference.
