A Study to Evaluate Long-Term Maintenance Treatment With Once Daily Crisaborole Ointment 2% in Pediatric and Adult Participants With Mild-to-Moderate Atopic Dermatitis

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
This study will evaluate crisaborole therapy once daily (QD) as a long-term topical maintenance therapy for the reduction of flare in responders to crisaborole twice daily (BID) treatment.

Detailed Description
-----------------
Approximately 700 participants will be enrolled in an run-in period to receive crisaborole, BID for up to a maximum of 8 weeks to identify crisaborole responders. A responder is defined as a participant who achieves both ISGA and EASI50 success. ISGA success is defined as achieving a score of 0 or 1 with at least 2 grade improvement from baseline; and the EASI50 success is defined as at least 50% improvement from baseline. Non responders at the end of the 8-week run-in period will be discontinued from the study. Approximately 250 responders will be randomized (1:1 ratio) to enter the double-blind maintenance treatment period to receive crisaborole or vehicle QD for 52 weeks, with follow-up assessments every 4 weeks. If a flare occurs and if the participant meets the criteria for having a flare (ISGA ≥2), the participant will switch to enter a flare treatment period to receive open-label crisaborole BID for up to 12 weeks with follow-up assessments every 4 weeks. If the flare has resolved (ISGA ≤1) the participant will resume maintenance treatment and respective visit schedule. If a flare does not resolve after 3 consecutive treatment courses the participant will discontinue the study. A flare treatment period may comprise up to 3 consecutive treatment courses with crisaborole BID (each course is 4 weeks). An end of study (EOS) safety follow-up is required 4 weeks after the last study treatment of any treatment period.

What is the study measuring?
-----------------
Primary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Duration of Flare-Free Maintenance Until Onset of First-Flare During the Double Blind (DB) Period | The duration of flare-free maintenance was the time from randomization to the last Investigator's Static Global Assessment (ISGA) and was right censored, if an intercurrent event (eg, death, dropout, loss to follow up, or end of study) occurred before the first flare. When a flare occurred first, the duration of flare free maintenance was the time from randomization to the first flare and was not censored. Duration of flare free maintenance was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. | From randomization to first flare or last ISGA assessment (up to 52 weeks) | 
| Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) | An adverse event (AE) was any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention. An AE was considered a TEAE if the event started on or after the treatment period start date and before end of study (at least 28 days after last dose of study intervention). | Crisaborole 2% BID: From start of study intervention in OL period up to 8 weeks ; Vehicle QD and crisaborole 2% QD: From start of study intervention in DB period up to 28 days after last dose of study intervention (maximum of 56 weeks) | 

Secondary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Number of Flare-Free Days During the DB Period | Flare - free days was the sum of the duration of flare-free maintenance during the DB maintenance period for each participant. | Up to maximum of 52 weeks | 
| Number of Flares During the DB Period | Flare was defined as an ISGA score of >=2. The ISGA is a 5-point scale (range 0 to 4), reflecting a global assessment of AD severity based on erythema, induration/papulation, and oozing/crusting. ISGA score of 2: mild (faint pink erythema with mild induration/papulation and no oozing/crusting) 3: moderate (pink-red erythema with moderate induration/papulation with or without oozing/crusting) and 4: severe (deep or bright red erythema with severe induration/papulation and with oozing/crusting). | Up to maximum of 52 weeks |

Evaluated among pruritus responders (success in ISGA, EASI 50) at randomization. Pruritus response maintenance=maintenance of >=50% improvement in pruritus from baseline obtained at randomization. If event(e.g., death, first flare[ISGA >=2], lost to follow up, or end of study) occurred before loss of pruritus response for first flare-free period, duration of maintenance of pruritus response was time from randomization to last assessment and was censored. Here, pruritus response maintenance duration was presented for participants aged 3 to <6 months with OL baseline ORIS>=3 or >=4 and >=3 or >=4 points reduction from OL baseline to randomization in ORIS. Caregivers were asked to rate observation of their child's itch(scratching, rubbing) at worst moment during previous 24 hours on a scale of 0 to 10;0=no itch,10=worst itch imaginable. | From randomization up to loss of pruritus response or onset of first flare or the last assessment (maximum of 52 weeks) |

POEM response maintenance was defined as the response that does not lose more than minimal clinical important difference. Duration of POEM maintenance was time from randomization to loss of POEM response during 52-week DB period for responders at randomization. Responders were defined as participants with success in ISGA and EASI50 criteria. If an event (e.g., death, first flare [ISGA >=2], lost to follow up, or end of study) occurred before loss of POEM response, duration of maintenance of POEM response was time from randomization to last assessment and was censored.

| EuroQoL EQ-5D Y Index Scores in Participants Between 8-17 Years of Age: First Flare Free Period | EQ-5D-Y: child-friendly version of EQ-5D questionnaire related to health status. Health state profile assessed health in 5 dimensions (mobility; looking after myself; doing usual activities; having pain or discomfort; feeling worried, sad or unhappy) used to obtain an index score, each of which had three levels of response (no problems/no pain/not worried, some problems/some pain/a bit worried, a lot of problems/a lot of pain/very worried). Participants indicated their health state by choosing the appropriate level from each dimension. The 5 digit health states thus obtained for each dimension were then converted into a single median index value. A health state index score was calculated from individual health profiles using a USA scoring algorithm. Health state index scores generally ranged from -0.109 to 1, where,-0.109= the worst health status, 1= full health. Higher the score the better the health status. A positive change from baseline indicated improvement in health status. | Baseline (the last observation up to and including randomization day of DB period), Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40, 44, 48 and 52 |

| Total Anxiety and Depression Scores Measured Using Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS): OL Run-in Period | HADS was a validated 14-item questionnaire to assess states of anxiety and depression over the past week. HADS consisted of 2 subscales: HADS-anxiety (HADS-A) and HADS-depression (HADS-D), each of which comprised of 7 items. Each item was rated on a 4-point scale, with scores ranging from 0 to 3, where higher scores indicated more anxiety/depression symptoms. HADS-A assessed state of generalized anxiety. HADS-A total score = sum of all 7 items with score ranging from 0 (no presence of anxiety) to 21 (severe feeling of anxiety); higher score indicated greater severity of anxiety. HADS-D assessed the state of lost interest and diminished pleasure response. HADS-D total score = sum of all 7 items with score ranging from 0 (no presence of depression) to 21 (severe feeling of depression); higher score indicated greater severity of depression symptoms. | Baseline (last observation up to and including Day 1 of OL period), Weeks 2, 4, 6 and 8 |
