    IL-4 and IL-13 are key drivers of type 2 inflammation, and type 2 inflammation plays a major role in diseases such as atopic dermatitis, asthma, and chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP)


    This is a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel grouping, and dose exploration phase 2 clinical study to evaluate the efficacy of AK120 in adult subjects with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis And safety


    Previously, AK120 has completed a single-dose escalation phase 1a clinical study in healthy subjects and a multi-dose escalation phase 1b clinical study for the treatment of atopic dermatitis in New Zealand and Australia


    According to the preliminary blinded efficacy data of the phase 1b clinical trial, subjects who have achieved the eczema area and severity score (EASI) 50, EASI 75 and the doctor’s overall assessment (IGA) to achieve clean (0) or almost clean (1) improvement were observed The ratio, in each dosing regimen, shows a good effect, and has a good dose dependence
