7. Prior or concomitant treatments meeting any of the following:
* Use of biologics within 10 weeks prior to randomization or within 5 half-lives (whichever is longer)
* Use of targeted inhibitors (e.g., JAK inhibitors), systemic glucocorticoids, cyclosporine, or other immunosuppressants (e.g., methotrexate, MMF, azathioprine), phosphodiesterase-4 (PDE4) inhibitors, phototherapy (UV), or systemic Chinese herbal medicine for AD within 4 weeks prior to randomization
