Summary

This trial is testing the long-term safety and efficacy of dupilumab, a medication used to treat eczema, in children. The trial will also assess the levels of functional dupilumab in the blood after repeated treatment and the immunogenicity of the medication.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for children aged ≥6 months to <18 years with Atopic Dermatitis (AD) who have participated in a prior dupilumab study. For the sub-study, only kids ≥2 to <12 years old and weighing between 5kg and 60kg can join. Participants must not have severe illnesses or recent treatments that could interfere with the study.
What is being tested?
The main goal is to check long-term safety of dupilumab in young patients with AD. It also looks at how well it works over time, its levels in blood after repeated use, and if bodies react against it. A sub-study tests a pre-filled pen version for safety, dosage levels in blood, and immune response.
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects are not listed here, generally Dupilumab may cause injection site reactions, eye issues like redness or itching, cold sores in mouth or throat area; however individual experiences may vary.

Awards & Highlights

All Individual Drugs Already Approved
Therapies where all constituent drugs have already been approved are likely to have better-understood side effect profiles.
No Placebo-Only Group
All patients enrolled in this study will receive some form of active treatment.
Pivotal Trial
The final step before approval, pivotal trials feature drugs that have already shown basic safety & efficacy.
