- Adverse Events and Serious Adverse Events [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 49 ]Incidence, Frequency, and duration of treatment emergent adverse events
- Number of subjects with clinically significant laboratory test abnormalities [ Time Frame: Baseline up to Week 49 ]
- Number of subjects with clinically significant vital signs abnormalities [ Time Frame: Baseline up to Week 49 ]
- Mean Investigator- and Subject (or Caregiver)-assessed LTS scores by visit [ Time Frame: Baseline up to Week 48 ]Local Tolerability Scale (LTS) is a clinical tool for assessing the presence and overall degree of irritation at the application sites, according to a 5-point scale (0-4). Higher LTS scores represent more severe irritation.
- Proportion of subjects who experience vIGA-AD of clear (0) after treatment [ Time Frame: Baseline up to Week 48 ]The vIGA-AD is a clinical tool for assessing the current state/severity of a subject's atopic dermatitis at a given timepoint. It is a static 5-point morphological assessment of overall disease severity, as determined by the investigator, using the clinical characteristics of erythema, induration/papulation, lichenification, oozing/crusting.
- Proportion of subjects who experience vIGA-AD score of clear or almost clear (0 or 1) after treatment [ Time Frame: Baseline up to Week 48 ]The vIGA-AD is a clinical tool for assessing the current state/severity of a subject's atopic dermatitis at a given timepoint. It is a static 5-point (0-4) morphological assessment of overall disease severity, as determined by the investigator, using the clinical characteristics of erythema, induration/papulation, lichenification, oozing/crusting. Higher vIGA-AD scores represents more severe disease.
- Proportion of subjects who do not experience disease worsening (vIGA-AD ≥ 2) [ Time Frame: Baseline up to Week 48 ]The vIGA-AD is a clinical tool for assessing the current state/severity of a subject's atopic dermatitis at a given timepoint. It is a static 5-point (0-4) morphological assessment of overall disease severity, as determined by the investigator, using the clinical characteristics of erythema, induration/papulation, lichenification, oozing/crusting. Higher vIGA-AD scores represents more severe disease.
- Absolute value, change and percent change from Baseline in %BSA affected by visit [ Time Frame: Baseline to each visit ]The assessment of %BSA affected is an estimate of the percentage of total involved skin with AD. For the purpose of clinical estimation, the total palmar surface of the subject's palm and digits may be assumed to be approximately equivalent to 1% BSA. The %BSA affected by AD will be evaluated (from 0% to 100%). %BSA is a static assessment made without reference to previous scores.
- Absolute value, change and percent change from Baseline in Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) score by visit [ Time Frame: Baseline to each visit ]The EASI scoring system is a clinical tool that quantifies the severity of a subject's AD based on both lesion severity and %BSA affected. The EASI is a composite score ranging from 0 to 72 that takes into account the degree of erythema, edema/papulation, excoriation, and lichenification (each scored from 0 to 3 separately) for each of four body regions, with adjustment for the %BSA involved for each body region relative to the whole body. Higher EASI scores indicate more severe disease.
- Proportion of subjects with ≥ 50%, 75%, and 90% improvement in EASI score from Baseline by visit [ Time Frame: Baseline to each visit ]The EASI scoring system is a clinical tool that quantifies the severity of a subject's AD based on both lesion severity and %BSA affected. The EASI is a composite score ranging from 0 to 72 that takes into account the degree of erythema, edema/papulation, excoriation, and lichenification (each scored from 0 to 3 separately) for each of four body regions, with adjustment for the %BSA involved for each body region relative to the whole body. Higher EASI scores indicate more severe disease.
- Mean change in PP- NRS score [ Time Frame: Baseline to each visit ]The PP-NRS is a scale from 0-10 used to assess itch/pruritus severity over a 24-hour period which will be used daily to assess peak pruritus. Higher PP-NRS ratings represent more itch reported.
- Proportion of subjects with a Baseline PP-NRS score ≥ 4 who achieve ≥ 4-point reduction in the PP-NRS from Baseline at each study visit [ Time Frame: Baseline to each visit ]The PP-NRS is a scale used to assess itch/pruritus severity over a 24-hour period which will be used daily to assess peak pruritus.Higher PP-NRS ratings represent more itch reported.

Ages Eligible for Study: | 2 Years and older (Child, Adult, Older Adult) |
Sexes Eligible for Study: | All |
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
Inclusion Criteria:
For Roll-over Subjects Only:
- Met the criteria as a Study Completer in one of three studies (DMVT-505-3101 study, DMVT-505-3102 study, or DMVT-505-2104 study).
- Must not be pregnant at Baseline
For Direct-Enrolling Subjects Only:
- Male and female subjects ages 2 years to < 18 years at the time of consent with clinical diagnosis of AD
- Subjects with a vIGA-AD™ score of ≥ 3 and AD covering ≥ 40% of the BSA at Screening and Baseline (pre-randomization), or subjects with a vIGA-AD™ score of 2 at Screening and Baseline (pre-randomization) regardless of BSA. Subjects must have screened for the DMVT-505-3101 or DMVT-505-3102 study and failed to meet BSA and/or vIGA-AD™ eligibility criteria.
- AD present for at least 6 months for ages 6 years old and above or 3 months for ages 2 to 5 years old
- Must not be pregnant at Screening or Baseline
For All Subjects:
- Female subjects of childbearing potential who are engaging in sexual activity that could lead to pregnancy should use acceptable birth control methods
- Subject, subject's parent, or legal representative must be capable of giving written informed consent/assent
Exclusion Criteria:
For Rollover Subjects Only:
- Subjects who were not receiving study drug at the time of the last visit in the pivotal study (DMVT-505-3101, DMVT-505-3102, or DMVT-505-2104)
- Used a prohibited concomitant product or procedure to treat AD during the pivotal study.

For Direct-Enrolling Subjects:
- Immunocompromised at screening
- Chronic or acute systemic or superficial infection requiring treatment with systemic antibacterials or antifungals within one week prior to baseline visit
- Significant dermatological or inflammatory condition other than AD that, in the Investigator's opinion, would make it difficult to interpret data or assessments during the study

- History of or ongoing serious illness or medical, physical, or psychiatric condition(s) that, in the Investigator's opinion, may interfere with the subject's participation in the study, interpretation of results, or ability to understand and give informed consent.
- Pregnant or lactating females
- History of sensitivity to the study medications, or components thereof or a history of drug or other allergy that, in the opinion of the Investigator or Medical Monitor, contraindicates their participation
