{"doi":"10.1159/000532054","title":"A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Multicenter, 16-Week Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of FB-401 in Children, Adolescents, and Adult Subjects (Ages 2 Years and Older) with Mild-to-Moderate Atopic Dermatitis","abstract":"BACKGROUND: Atopic dermatitis is a common chronic, relapsing, and remitting inflammatory skin disorder associated with cutaneous dysbiosis. Current treatment options often fail to adequately control the disease and have unfavorable safety profiles. There is a need for new options that address these treatment shortcomings. OBJECTIVE: The aim of the study was to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of FB-401, a live therapeutic product of 3 strains of Roseomonas mucosa, compared to matching placebo applied topically 3 times per week to participants ages ≥2 years of age with mild-to-moderate atopic dermatitis. METHODS: A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study was conducted. The primary outcome was the proportion of participants with 50% improvement in Eczema Area and Severity Index score from baseline at week 16. 154 subjects aged 2 or older with a clinical diagnosis of atopic dermatitis as defined by Hanifin and Rajka criteria with mild or moderate severity were randomized 1:1 via interactive web response system to FB-401 or placebo. RESULTS: The proportion of subjects who achieved the primary outcome was similar between both treatment groups, with no significant treatment group differences observed at any post-baseline visit. The number of treatment-emergent adverse events and the number of subjects with at least one were similar across treatment groups. One serious adverse event not related to treatment was reported. No treatment-emergent adverse events led to treatment discontinuation or study discontinuation. CONCLUSIONS: FB-401 showed an acceptable safety profile but failed to prove superior to placebo in treating children and adults with mild-to-moderate atopic dermatitis.","journal":"Dermatology","year":2023,"id":338701,"datarank":0.0,"base_score":0.0,"endowment":0.0,"self_citation_contribution":0.0,"citation_network_contribution":0.0,"self_endowment_contribution":0.0,"citer_contribution":0.0,"corpus_percentile":null,"corpus_rank":null,"citation_count":17,"citer_count":0,"citers_with_citation_signal":0,"citers_with_endowment":0,"datacite_reuse_total":0,"is_dataset":false,"is_dataset_confidence":0.9545,"is_data_producer":false,"deposit_databanks":null,"is_oa":true,"file_count":0,"downloads":0,"has_version_chain":false,"published_date":"2023-01-01","fair_score":null,"fair_percentile":null,"algorithm_id":"datarank_citation_only_1hop_v6","ranking_scope":"data_only","authors":[{"id":237344,"name":"Ian A.
