162

<Double-blind Period> There was no notable differences between the treatment groups (107 subjects in the 0.5% cream group, 55 subjects in the vehicle cream group) in the subject demographics (age, sex, etc.) or baseline characteristics (IGA score, EASI score, etc.) in the double-blind period. 82 of 162 subjects (50.6%) in total (the 0.5% cream group and the vehicle cream group combined) were male. The mean age was 7.0 years in 162 subjects in total. In both treatment groups, approximately 60% of subjects had a baseline IGA score of 3 (moderate). The baseline value of EASI score was 10.898 in the 0.5% cream group and 10.668 in the vehicle cream group. <Overall Study Period (Double-blind period and Extension Period)> The subject demographics (age, sex, etc.) and baseline characteristics (IGA score, EASI score, etc.) in both treatment groups (107 subjects in the 0.5% - 0.5% group, 47 subjects in the vehicle - 0.5% group) in the overall study period were comparable to those in the double-blind period. 79 of 154 subjects (51.3%) in total (the 0.5% - 0.5% group and the vehicle - 0.5% group combined) were male. The mean age was 7.1 years in 154 subjects in total. In both treatment groups, approximately 60% of subjects had a baseline IGA score of 3 (moderate). The baseline value of EASI score was 10.898 in the 0.5% - 0.5% group and 10.515 in the vehicle - 0.5% group.

162 subjects were randomly assigned to each group. A total of 162 subjects received the investigational product, consisting of 107 subjects in the 0.5% cream group and 55 subjects in the vehicle cream group. After initiation of study treatment in the double-blind period, the study was discontinued in 3 subjects in the 0.5% cream group and 8 subjects in the vehicle cream group. In the double-blind period, the study treatment was completed in 102 subjects in the 0.5% cream group and 30 subjects in the vehicle cream group. All subjects who completed study treatment in the double-blind period proceeded to the extension period. During the period from the assessments at Week 4 to the assessments at Week 8, 2 subjects in the 0.5% cream group and 17 subjects in the vehicle cream group switched to the extension period because of worsening of AD that made it difficult to continue the double-blind period. Therefore, a total of 151 subjects (104 in the 0.5% cream group and 47 in the vehicle cream group) entered the extension period. In the extension period, the study was discontinued after the start of treatment with JTE-061 cream 0.5% in 8 subjects (5 treated with 0.5% - 0.5% and 3 treated with vehicle - 0.5%). A total of 143 subjects (99 treated with 0.5% - 0.5% and 44 treated with vehicle - 0.5% ) completed up to 60 weeks of study treatment including the double-blind period.

<Double-blind Period> No deaths or other serious adverse events occurred. Adverse events leading to study treatment discontinuation occurred in 2 subjects (1.9%) in the 0.5% cream group and 8 subjects (14.5%) in the vehicle cream group. Adverse drug reactions leading to study treatment discontinuation were 1 event of dermatitis atopic in 1 subject each in the 0.5% cream group and the vehicle cream group. Adverse events occurred in 78 subjects (72.9%) in the 0.5% cream group and 41 subjects (74.5%) in the vehicle cream group. There was no adverse event that was assessed as severe. Adverse drug reactions occurred in 7 subjects (6.5%) in the 0.5% cream group and 2 subjects (3.6%) in the vehicle cream group. The adverse drug reaction that occurred in >= 2% of subjects in the 0.5% cream group was application site folliculitis in 3 subjects (2.8%). The adverse drug reaction that occurred in >= 2% of subjects in the vehicle cream group was dermatitis atopic in 2 subjects (3.6%). <Overall Study Period (Double-blind period and Extension Period)> No deaths occurred. The other serious adverse event of tibia fracture occurred in 1 subject (0.6%) in JTE-061 total, but causal relationship with the investigational product was ruled out. Adverse events leading to study treatment discontinuation occurred in 4 subjects (2.6%) in JTE-061 total. Adverse drug reactions leading to study treatment discontinuation were 2 events of dermatitis atopic in 2 subjects (1.3%) in JTE-061 total. Adverse events occurred in 150 subjects (97.4%) in JTE-061 total. An adverse event that was assessed as severe of liver function test increased occurred in 1 subject (0.6%) in JTE-061 total, but causal relationship with the investigational product was ruled out. Adverse drug reactions occurred in 22 subjects (14.3%) in JTE-061 total. Adverse drug reactions that occurred in >= 2% of subjects in JTE-061 total were application site folliculitis in 7 subjects (4.5%), acne in 6 subjects (3.9%), and application site acne and dermatitis atopic in 4 subjects (2.6%) each.

<Double-blind Period> The proportion of subjects with >= 75% improvement in EASI score from Baseline (EASI-75 response rate) at Week 8, the primary endpoint, was 52.59% in the 0.5% cream group and 12.60% in the vehicle cream group, with the difference between the 2 groups (0.5% cream group - vehicle cream group) of 40.0% (95% CI: 26.3% to 53.7%). The EASI-75 response rate at Week 8 was significantly higher in the 0.5% cream group than in the vehicle cream group (p < 0.0001, 2-sided alpha of 5%), demonstrating the superiority of the 0.5% cream over the vehicle cream. The least-squares mean percent change in EASI score from Baseline at Week 8, a key secondary endpoint, was -68.28% in the 0.5% cream group and -23.01% in the vehicle cream group. The difference between the 2 groups was -45.27% (95% CI: -59.48% to -31.06%). An improvement in EASI score was noted in the 0.5% cream group, and the mean percent change in EASI score from Baseline at Week 8 was greater in the 0.5% cream group than in the vehicle cream group. The Proportion of subjects who achieve an IGA score of clear (0) or almost clear (1) with a minimum 2-grade improvement from Baseline (IGA treatment success rate) at Week 8, a key secondary endpoint, was 26.2% in the 0.5% cream group and 1.8% in the vehicle cream group, with the difference between the 2 groups of 24.4% (95% CI: 13.2% to 34.0%). The IGA treatment success rate at Week 8 was higher in the 0.5% cream group than in the vehicle cream group. <Overall Study Period (Double-blind period and Extension Period)> Improvements in EASI score, IGA score, %BSA affected, POEM score, and pruritus score were noted after the start of JTE-061 cream 0.5% administration and were sustained through Week 60.

In the 8-week double-blind treatment in pediatric patients with AD, the EASI-75 response rate at Week 8 was significantly higher in the 0.5% cream group than in the vehicle cream group, demonstrating the superiority of the 0.5% cream over the vehicle cream. In the 60-week treatment (across double-blind and extension periods), the plasma concentration of JTE-061 was low, and JTE-061 cream 0.5% was generally safe and well tolerated. The efficacy of JTE-061 cream 0.5% was shown to be sustained through Week 60.
