This pivotal Phase III clinical trial evaluated the efficacy and safety of Cibinqo in combination with medicated topical therapy vs placebo in 838 patients with moderate-to-severe AD, with a direct head-to-head comparison with dupilumab as an active comparator for itch relief at Week 2.1,2
*Patients used non-medicated emollient twice daily, starting at least 7 days before randomisation and continued throughout the trial.
†Patients used medicated topical therapy (once daily) such as low- or medium-potency topical corticosteroids, calcineurin inhibitors, or PDE4 inhibitors, starting on Day 1 and as per protocol guidance, to treat active lesions during the study.
The primary analysis of efficacy was performed in the modified intention-to-treat-population, which included all the patients who had undergone randomisation and received at least 1 dose of a trial drug or placebo.

In 12 weeks, 70.3% of patients treated with Cibinqo 200 mg achieved EASI-75 vs 27.1% with placebo (P<0.001).1,2
EASI-75 at Week 12 | no./Total no. (%, 95% CI) |
---|---|
Cibinqo 200 mg | 154/219 (70.3%; 64.3–76.4) |
Cibinqo 100 mg | 138/235 (58.7%; 52.4–65.0) |
Dupilumab | 140/241 (58.1%; 51.9–64.3) |
Placebo | 35/129 (27.1%; 19.5–34.8) |
EASI-75 response is defined as a 75% improvement in EASI score from baseline.
Analyses shown are between Cibinqo and placebo. Results are not to be interpreted as evidence of superiority, noninferiority, or similarity between Cibinqo and dupilumab
For most patients, particularly those with severe disease, the recommended starting dose is 200 mg.
In 12 weeks, 48.4% of patients treated with Cibinqo 200 mg achieved IGA 0/1 vs 14.0% with placebo (P<0.001).1,2

Cibinqo 200 mg was superior to dupilumab at Week 2 in the proportion of patients achieving PP-NRS4, with significantly higher itch response* seen as early as Day 4 after the first dose.1,2
*PP-NRS4 is defined as an improvement of ≥4 points from baseline in the severity of PP-NRS. Cibinqo 200 mg was compared with dupilumab in the key secondary head-to-head endpoint, PP-NRS4 at Week 2. This endpoint was further analysed as prespecified multiplicity-controlled analysis and showed superiority to dupilumab down to Day 4.

7.5 point greater improvement in POEM scores reported with Cibinqo 200 mg vs placebo at Week 12 (nominal P<0.0001).
Data limitations: Change from baseline in POEM is a prespecified secondary endpoint not controlled for multiplicity; therefore treatment differences could represent chance findings.

SCORAD sleep loss subscale is a component of the SCORAD questionnaire.
Data limitations: Change from baseline in SCORAD sleep loss is a prespecified secondary endpoint not controlled for multiplicity; therefore treatment differences could represent chance findings.
Analyses shown are between Cibinqo and placebo. Results are not to be interpreted as evidence of superiority, noninferiority, or similarity between Cibinqo and dupilumab.
