- Post washout period patients were given Adtralza (Q2W) or PBO initially for 16wks. & dosing of Adtralza started with 300 or 600mg on day 0 for patients receiving 150/300mg, Q2W. Patients responding to Adtralza @16wks. with an IGA score of 0/1 and/or 75% EASI change from baseline were randomized to Adtralza (Q2W/Q4W) for an additional 36wks.
