671 - Rapid and early onset of itch relief with tapinarof cream 1% once daily in two pivotal phase 3 trials in adults and children down to two years of age with atopic dermatitis
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Introduction Itch is the most bothersome symptom for patients with atopic dermatitis (AD), and has a significant negative impact on health-related quality of life. Rapid onset of pruritus relief with sustained efficacy is a key outcome for AD therapies. In ADORING 1 and 2, two identical pivotal phase 3, double-blind, vehicle-controlled trials, tapinarof cream 1% once daily (QD) demonstrated efficacy and was well tolerated in adults and children down to 2 years of age with AD. Objective Here, we evaluate time to onset of itch relief in the pivotal phase 3 trials. Methods In ADORING 1 and 2, patients with a Validated Investigator Global Assessment for Atopic DermatitisTM score of ≥3 (moderate or severe), an Eczema Area and Severity Index score of ≥6, and body surface area involvement of 5–35% were randomized 2:1 to tapinarof cream or vehicle QD for 8 weeks. Itch relief was assessed by changes in Peak Pruritus Numerical Rating Scale (PP-NRS) score, daily and by visit, from baseline through Week 8. PP-NRS considers itch over the past 24 hours; lower scores indicate less pruritus. Results 407 and 406 patients were randomized in ADORING 1 and 2. At baseline, mean PP-NRS scores were 6.7 and 6.8 in both trials, respectively. For daily evaluations of itch from baseline, greater reductions in mean PP-NRS scores for tapinarof versus vehicle were observed as early as Day 1, 24 hours after initial application in ADORING 1 (–1.2 vs –0.9), and Day 2 in ADORING 2 (–1.6 vs –1.4). Daily itch improvements continued through Week 8 in both trials. Statistically significant reductions in mean weekly PP-NRS scores occurred as early as Week 1 (earliest assessment) with tapinarof versus vehicle (–2.0 vs –1.2 [P<0.0001]) and (–2.0 vs –1.3 [P=0.0010]) in ADORING 1 and 2, respectively. Significantly greater reductions in mean PP-NRS scores with tapinarof versus vehicle were seen for all visits through Week 8 (–4.1 vs –2.6 and –4.1 vs –2.4 [both P<0.0001]). Conclusions Tapinarof cream 1% QD demonstrated rapid, significant, and clinically meaningful pruritus relief from 24 hours after initial application, with improvements increasing through Week 8 in both trials in adults and children down to 2 years with AD.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
