Cibinqo efficacy in combination with medicated topical therapy vs placebo and dupilumab1,2

This pivotal Phase III clinical trial evaluated the efficacy and safety of Cibinqo in combination with medicated topical therapy vs placebo in 838 patients with moderate-to-severe AD, with a direct head-to-head comparison with dupilumab as an active comparator for itch relief at Week 2.1,2
STUDY DESIGN1,2
*Patients used non-medicated emollient twice daily, starting at least 7 days before randomisation and continued throughout the trial.
Patients used medicated topical therapy (once daily) such as low- or medium-potency topical corticosteroids, calcineurin inhibitors, or PDE4 inhibitors, starting on Day 1 and as per protocol guidance, to treat active lesions during the study. 
Co-primary endpoints:
  • EASI-75 response at Week 12 vs placebo (defined as a 75% improvement in EASI score from baseline)
  • ​​​​​​​IGA 0/1 response with ≥2-point improvement at Week 12 vs placebo

Secondary endpoints:
  • PP-NRS4 response of either dose of Cibinqo vs dupilumab and placebo at Week 2 (defined as an improvement of ≥4 points from baseline in the severity of PP-NRS)
  • ​​​​​​​IGA 0/1 response with ≥2-point improvement and EASI-75 response at Week 16 vs placebo
  • EASI-90 response at Week 12 vs placebo
  • Score on the Patient-Oriented eczema Measure (POEM; scores range from 0–28 with higher scores indicating greater severity)
  • Score on the Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI; scores range from 0–30 with higher scores indicating greater impairment)
  • Change in the subjective assessment of sleep loss on the SCOring Atopic Dermatitis (SCORAD; scores range from 0–103 with higher scores indicating greater severity) sleep loss subscale
The primary analysis of efficacy was performed in the modified intention-to-treat-population, which included all the patients who had undergone randomisation and received at least 1 dose of a trial drug or placebo.

KEY SECONDARY ENDPOINT – ITCH REDUCTION
Rapid itch relief with Cibinqo 200 mg vs dupilumab at Week 21,2​​​​​​​
