A Study to Assess Change in Disease Activity in Adolescents and Adults With Moderate to Severe Prurigo-type Atopic Dermatitis in Japan Who Are Treated With Oral Upadacitinib
Japan1 participantsStarted 2022-12-08
Plain-language summary
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a skin condition that may cause a rash and itching due to inflammation of the skin. Around one-third of patients with AD have had at least 1 incidence of prurigo nodularis (PN), which is characterized by intense, persistent itchy skin and sometimes pain with burning. In this study, the effectiveness of upadacitinib (UPA) will be assessed in participants with prurigo-type AD in a real world (RW) setting in Japan.
UPA is an approved drug for the treatment of AD. Adults and adolescents who have been diagnosed with prurigo-type AD and prescribed UPA according to the label and practice in Japan will be enrolled in this observational study. The doctor's decision to prescribe UPA will be made prior to and independently of study participation. Approximately 200 participants will be enrolled in the study at 10 sites in Japan.
Participants will receive extended-release oral tablets of UPA once-daily for 48 weeks.
There will be no additional burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the course of the study at a hospital or clinic.

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
