The aim of this study is to investigate the use of benralizumab as treatment for patients with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis (AD) who remain symptomatic despite treatment with topical medications. It is proposed that benralizumab will deplete eosinophils from affected skin, improve symptoms of AD, and improve AD-related quality of life. This Phase 2 study is designed to compare the efficacy of treatment with benralizumab versus placebo and compare benralizumab maintenance dosing regimens in the extension period.
The purpose of the study is to compare the efficacy and safety of benralizumab versus placebo and to compare benralizumab dosing regimens during extension period.
