Eczema drug dupilumab tested for Long-Term use in kids
NCT ID NCT02612454
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looks at the long-term safety of dupilumab (Dupixent) in children aged 6 months to 18 years with atopic dermatitis (eczema). About 880 kids who were in earlier dupilumab studies will continue treatment. Researchers will track side effects and check if a pre-filled pen works as well as a syringe. The goal is to see if the drug remains safe and effective over time.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- dupilumab (Dupixent)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could confirm that dupilumab is safe and effective for long-term use in children with eczema, offering a reliable treatment option.
- What could go wrong
- This is an open-label extension study, meaning everyone knows they are getting the drug, which can bias results. Long-term side effects are still being monitored, and the study may not prove the drug works better than no treatment.
This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.

Key Inclusion Criteria: * Participated in a prior dupilumab study in pediatric participants with AD and adequately completed the visits and assessments required for both the treatment and follow-up periods, as defined in the prior study protocol * PFP Sub-Study Only: * Age ≥2 to \<12 years at time of screening * Body weight ≥5 kg and \<60 kg at time of screening * Must have received the same dupilumab dose regimen to be used in the PFP sub-study during the previous 12 weeks in the main OLE study using the prefilled syringe, as defined in the protocol Key Exclusion Criteria: * Participants who, during their participation in a prior dupilumab study developed an adverse event (AE) or serious adverse event (SAE) deemed related to study drug which could indicate that continued treatment with study drug may present an unreasonable risk for the patient * Participants, who during the participation in a prior Dupilumab study, developed an AE that was deemed related to study drug and led to study treatment discontinuation, which in the opinion of the investigator or medical monitor could indicate that continued treatment with study drug may present an unreasonable risk for the patient * Treatment with an investigational drug, other than dupilumab, within 8 weeks or within 5 half-lives (if known), whichever is longer, before the baseline visit * Having used immunosuppressive/immunomodulating drugs within 4 weeks before the baseline visit * Treatment with a live (attenuated) vaccine within 4 weeks before the baseline visit * Diagnosed active endoparasitic infections or at high risk of these infections * Severe concomitant illness(es) that, in the investigator's judgment, would adversely affect the participant's participation in the study * PFP Sub-study Only: * Poor compliance as defined by having missed 1 or more of the planned last 3 injections in the main OLE study prior to entering the sub-study * Switched dupilumab doses within the past 12 weeks * Meet criteria for temporary/permanent discontinuation of study drug at time of screening into PFP sub-study, as defined in the protocol. Note: Other protocol defined Inclusion / Exclusion criteria may apply
