Summary

This study tests whether a medicated cream called crisaborole works better than a placebo cream for people with mild to moderate eczema. About 270 people aged 12 to 50 will apply the cream twice daily for four weeks. The goal is to see if the cream can clear or nearly clear the eczema rash.
