- Changes from baseline in atopic dermatitis biomarkers in lesional and non-lesional skin [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 12 ]Response based on biomarkers for general inflammation (MMP12), hyperplasia (K16), Th2 immune response (CCL17, CCL18, CCL26), and Th22 immune response (S100A8, S100A9, S100A12)
- Changes from baseline in gene expression [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 12 ]Response based on mRNA and/or PCR gene arrays in skin lesions
- Changes from baseline in cellular (T-cell and dendritic cell) inflammation markers [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 12 ]Response based on IHC evaluation of cellular (T-cells and dendritic cells) markers in skin biopsies
- Changes from baseline in epidermal hyperplasia markers [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 12 ]Responses based on IHC evaluation of epidermal hyperplasia markers (thickness, K16, and Ki67) in skin biopsies
- Changes from baseline in blood biomarkers for inflammation and immune response [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 12 ]Response based on OLINK proteomic microassay for inflammation and immune response in serum
- Changes from baseline in T-cell lymphocyte subset populations [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 12 ]Response based on T-cell lymphocyte subset populations in blood using flow cytometry
- Changes from baseline in pruritus and its correlation to immunohistochemistry and genetic markers [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 12 ]Response based on at least 4 points improvement in the severity of Peak Pruritus numerical rating scale and change in immunohistochemistry and genetic markers in lesional skin

Ages Eligible for Study: | 18 Years and older (Adult, Older Adult) |
Sexes Eligible for Study: | All |
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
Inclusion Criteria:
- Clinical diagnosis of chronic moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (AD) for at least 1 year
- Recent history of inadequate response to medicated topical therapy for AD or required systemic therapy to control disease
- Moderate-to-severe AD defined as affected BSA at least 10%, IGA at least 3, EASI at least 16, Peak Pruritus NRS at least 4
Exclusion Criteria:
- A current or pat medical history of conditions associated with thrombocytopenia, coagulopathy, or platelet dysfunction
- Currently have active forms of other inflammatory skin diseases, i.e. not AD, or have evidence of skin conditions (e.g. psoriasis, seborrheic dermatitis, lupus) at the time of Day 1 that would interfere with evaluation of AD or response to treatment
- Participants who have received prior treatment with any systemic JAK inhibitors
- Require treatment with prohibited concomitant medication(s) or have received a prohibited concomitant medication within specified time frames prior to the first dose of study medication, including topical treatments that could affect AD
- Pregnant or breastfeeding women or sexually-active women of childbearing potential who are unwilling to use contraception
