NCT ID NCT07071610
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tested an experimental ointment called LNK01004 in 75 adults with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (eczema). Participants applied the ointment twice daily for 8 weeks. The goal was to see if it reduces skin redness, swelling, and itching better than a placebo ointment. The trial is now complete, and results will help decide if larger studies are needed.
