Rocatinlimab

Clinical trials are investigating Rocatinlimab in people with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis, prurigo nodularis, and moderate-to-severe asthma. These studies look at safety, tolerability, and how well the treatment works compared with placebo. Most trials are phase 3, with one phase 2 asthma study.

Clinical trials overview

The source data shows several interventional studies of Rocatinlimab in different diseases.[1] Most of the trials are phase 3 studies, and one is a phase 2 study in asthma.[1]

The listed studies include authorised, completed, and withdrawn trials.[1] The main target populations are people with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis, adolescents with atopic dermatitis, people with prurigo nodularis, and people with moderate-to-severe asthma.[1]

Atopic dermatitis studies

Several trials study atopic dermatitis, which is a long-term itchy skin condition also called eczema in the trial descriptions.[1] These studies look at whether Rocatinlimab can improve skin signs and symptoms compared with placebo, which is an inactive treatment used for comparison.[1]

The ROCKET-Ignite study was a phase 3, placebo-controlled, double-blind study of Rocatinlimab monotherapy in moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis.[1] It was completed and enrolled 775 people.[1] Its main endpoints were clear or almost clear skin at week 24 using vIGA-AD and at least 75% improvement in eczema severity using EASI at week 24.[1]

The ROCKET-Horizon study was also a phase 3, placebo-controlled, double-blind study in moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis.[1] It was completed and enrolled 708 people.[1] This study compared Rocatinlimab with placebo and used the same kinds of skin-clearance and eczema-improvement outcomes at week 24.[1]

The ROCKET-SHUTTLE study was another phase 3 study in moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis, but it tested Rocatinlimab together with topical corticosteroids and/or topical calcineurin inhibitors.[1] It was completed and enrolled 715 people.[1] Its main goals were to see whether more people had clear or almost clear skin and whether eczema improved by 75% at week 24.[1]

The ROCKET-ASCEND study is a phase 3 maintenance study in moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis.[1] It is authorised and has a planned enrolment of 2200 people.[1] The brief summary says it is designed to describe the long-term safety and tolerability of Rocatinlimab in this population.[1]

The ROCKET-Orbit study was a phase 3 study in adolescents with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis.[1] It was withdrawn and planned to enrol 172 adolescents.[1] Its primary outcome was treatment-emergent serious adverse events, meaning serious health problems that appear after treatment starts.[1]

Prurigo nodularis study

One phase 3 study looks at prurigo nodularis, a skin condition with very itchy bumps or nodules.[1] This study is placebo-controlled and double-blind, and it is authorised with an enrolment of 460 people.[1]

The main outcome is the reduction in the weekly average daily itching score at set time points.[1] In simple terms, the study wants to learn whether Rocatinlimab can lower itch more than placebo over time.[1]

Asthma study

The asthma trial is a phase 2, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-ranging study in moderate-to-severe asthma.[1] It is authorised and plans to enrol 428 people.[1]

The main endpoint is the annualized asthma exacerbation rate during the placebo-controlled treatment period.[1] The trial defines an exacerbation as worsening asthma that needs systemic corticosteroids for at least 3 days, an emergency department visit that leads to steroid use, or an inpatient hospitalization because of asthma.[1]

Study designs and endpoints

Most studies are placebo-controlled, which means the results are compared with an inactive treatment to help show whether Rocatinlimab works better than no active study drug.[1] Several are also double-blind, which means neither the participants nor the study team know who gets which treatment during the blinded part of the study.[1]

In the atopic dermatitis studies, the main endpoints focus on skin clearance and eczema improvement at week 24 using vIGA-AD and EASI.[1] In prurigo nodularis, the main endpoint is itch reduction, and in asthma, the main endpoint is fewer flare-ups over time.[1]

Who can participate

The trial data show that the studies are aimed at people with moderate-to-severe disease in the condition being studied.[1] This includes adults with atopic dermatitis, adolescents with atopic dermatitis in one withdrawn study, people with prurigo nodularis, and people with moderate-to-severe asthma.[1]

Because the source data does not give full eligibility rules, the exact entry requirements are not listed here.[1] The available information mainly shows the disease type, age group in one study, trial phase, and the main outcomes being measured.[1]

Glossary

  • Atopic dermatitis: A long-term skin condition that causes dry, itchy, and inflamed skin. It is also called eczema in many trial descriptions.
  • Prurigo nodularis: A skin condition with very itchy, firm bumps or nodules. The main symptom studied in the trial is itching.
  • Asthma: A lung condition that can cause wheezing, shortness of breath, chest tightness, and coughing.
  • Moderate-to-severe: A description of disease intensity. It means the condition is more serious and may affect daily life a lot.
  • Phase 2: An early clinical trial phase that often looks at dose range, safety, and early signs of benefit.
  • Phase 3: A later trial phase that usually compares a treatment with placebo or standard care in larger groups to see how well it works and how safe it is.
  • Placebo: An inactive treatment used for comparison. It looks like the study treatment but does not contain the active study drug.
  • Double-blind: A study design where participants and study staff do not know who is getting the study treatment. This helps reduce bias.
  • Monotherapy: Treatment used by itself, without another study medicine as the main treatment.
  • Topical corticosteroids: Medicines applied to the skin to reduce inflammation.
  • Topical calcineurin inhibitors: Skin medicines used to reduce inflammation, often as an alternative or add-on treatment.
  • EASI: Eczema Area and Severity Index. This is a score used to measure how severe eczema is and how much it improves.
  • vIGA-AD: Validated Investigator’s Global Assessment for Atopic Dermatitis. This is a doctor-rated scale that checks whether the skin is clear or almost clear.
  • Annualized asthma exacerbation rate: A measure of how often asthma flare-ups happen over one year.
  • Exacerbation: A flare-up or worsening of a disease. In asthma, it can mean symptoms become bad enough to need extra treatment.
  • Enrolment: The number of people planned or included in a study.
  • Interventional study: A trial where researchers give a study treatment and compare outcomes.
  • Tolerability: How well people can take a treatment without too much trouble.
