What is Abrocitinib?

Abrocitinib is an investigational medicine, given as a pill taken by mouth, being studied as a potential treatment for eczema.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
This research study is being conducted to find out if the test medicine, abrocitinib, improves eczema and is safe for children 6 to \<12 years of age who have moderate-to-severe eczema. Research study participants who meet the study criteria will be assigned by chance (like the flip of a coin) to receive either abrocitinib test medicine or placebo (pretend medicine that looks just like the test medicine) for 16 weeks.
  • Phase 3: a large, late-stage study
  • Time commitment: about 24 weeks
  • You might receive a placebo (an inactive treatment) instead of the study drug.
