Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults with atopic dermatitis for at least one year who meet objective severity criteria (EASI ≥16, IGA ≥3, ≥10% BSA affected, and mean weekly pruritus NRS ≥4), who are not pregnant and who have completed required washout periods and have no major organ dysfunction are ideal candidates.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with mild disease, those who cannot complete required washout from prior therapies, pregnant individuals, or people with significant organ dysfunction or other conditions that affect safety or outcome assessment are unlikely to benefit from participation.

What this trial studies
This Phase 2 interventional trial compares CM512 against placebo in adults with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis. Participants must have had AD for at least one year and meet objective severity thresholds (EASI ≥16, IGA ≥3, ≥10% BSA involvement and mean weekly pruritus NRS ≥4). Eligible patients will receive either CM512 or a matching placebo and be monitored for efficacy and safety outcomes during the treatment period. The trial is sponsored by Keymed Biosciences and conducted at Peking University People's Hospital in Beijing.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, CM512 could reduce skin inflammation and itch and improve overall disease severity for adults with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis.
How similar studies have gone: Other systemic treatments for moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis, including biologics and JAK inhibitors, have shown clear benefits in this population, while CM512 itself is a novel candidate being tested in this setting.
