Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults 18–70 who are either healthy volunteers meeting weight/BMI and non-smoking criteria for Parts 1–2 or patients with confirmed moderate-to-severe AD (EASI ≥16, BSA ≥10%, vIGA-AD ≥3, pruritus NRS ≥3) for Part 3.

Probably not a fit

People with mild AD, children, pregnant or breastfeeding individuals, current smokers above the trial limit, or those with significant lab or ECG abnormalities or outside the BMI/weight ranges are unlikely to qualify or benefit from this early-phase study.

What this trial studies

This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 1a/1b program includes single-ascending dose (SAD) and multiple-ascending dose (MAD) parts in healthy volunteers and a Phase 1b repeat-dosing part in patients with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis. In SAD healthy volunteers are dosed in cohorts of 8 (6 active, 2 placebo) with safety review before escalation; MAD healthy volunteers receive three doses Q4W over 8 weeks. The Phase 1b patient portion randomizes participants 1:1:1 to two active dose levels or placebo for four doses over 12 weeks, with an option for placebo recipients to receive active treatment after the primary period. Follow-up periods of roughly 10–12 weeks are included to monitor safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, TRB-061 could provide a new injectable option that reduces inflammation and itch for people with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis.

How similar studies have gone: Other injectable, targeted therapies for atopic dermatitis have shown clear clinical benefit, but TRB-061 itself is in early-phase testing with limited prior patient data.

10. Abnormal and clinically significant laboratory values at screening.
11. Use of live vaccines within 4 weeks before Day 1.
