This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center, parallel-group study in adult and adolescent participants (≥ 12 to 54 years) with moderate-to-severe AD. Eligible participants must have a documented history of inadequate response to topical AD medication(s). Approximately 200 participants were randomized 1:1 to receive either 30 mg nemolizumab (with a 60 mg loading dose) or placebo, stratified by baseline disease severity Investigator Global Assessment (IGA) (IGA = 3, moderate; IGA = 4, severe). The study consisted of a 2- to 4-week screening period, a 16-week treatment period, and an 8-week follow-up period (12 weeks after the last study drug injection).
