Abbreviations: BMI, body mass index (calculated as weight in kilograms divided by height in meters squared); BSA, body surface area; DLQI, Dermatology Life Quality Index (range, 0 [no effect of skin disease on quality of life] to 30 [maximum effect on quality of life]); EASI, Eczema Area and Severity Index; IGA, Investigator’s Global Assessment (5-point scale); NRS, numeric rating scale; POEM, Patient-Oriented Eczema Measure (range, 0 [clear] to 28 [very severe]).

a

Percentages are based on the number of patients in the modified intent-to-treat population with a nonmissing response.

b

Sample size is n = 79.

c

Sample sizes are as follows: n = 49 for placebo and n = 68, n = 77, and n = 69 for the 3 lebrikizumab groups, respectively.

d

Sample sizes are as follows: n = 49 for placebo and n = 68, n = 77, and n = 70 for the 3 lebrikizumab groups, respectively. Sleep loss NRS scores reflect interference of itch on sleep over the past 24 hours on a 5-point scale (0 indicates not at all, and 4 indicates unable to sleep at all).

e

Sample size is n = 72.
