Itch by day 2 improved to week 16.
Sleep by the first on-treatment assessment at week 1 which improved to week 16.
Disease severity improved by the first on-treatment assessment at week 16.
Quality of life measures improved.
Five Phase 3 studies are underway.
Lebrikizumab is an injectable humanized monoclonal antibody that binds to (inhibits) a pro-inflammatory protein called interleukin-13 (IL-13).
Lilly obtained the rights to the candidate via its $1.1B acquisition of Dermira in February.
