      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Double blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Other design features: -, Randomization description: Patient allocation will be performed using R-CRAN version 4.4.0, applying block randomization (sizes 2 and 4), stratified by IGA (moderate/severe), for 250 patients with a 1:1 ratio. The randomization list and seed will be sent to the CRO (Contract Research Organization) before the study and used under CRO supervision to assign patients to groups during the study. This process will be centrally managed, with each patient randomly allocated to a treatment group upon entry according to their stratum. Each patient will receive a code consisting of four letters (first two of first and last names), three numbers (center code), three letters (DUP), and three digits (randomization code), e.g., ABCD001DUP-001. Randomization numbers will be assigned sequentially, Blinding description: Both interventions are non-distinguishable for patients and clinical staff.The drug containers of both dupilumab formulations will be placed in identical packaging, making them indistinguishable in appearance.</study_design>

Have a diagnosis of chronic Atopic Dermatitis (based on American Academy of Dermatology Consensus Criteria 2014), for at least 3 months before the screening
Moderate-to-severe Atopic Dermatitis patients with an EASI ≥16 at screening and before the first administration of the study drug • Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) is a tool to assess the severity and extent of atopic eczema, which would be scored based on physician’s diagnosis. It is scored from 0-72, where a greater number indicates of more severe disease.• If EASI score is 14 or 15 at screening, re-evaluation within 48 hours after the first assessment is possible.
Have an involved BSA ≥10 percent at screening• Body Surface Area (BSA) is scored based on physician’s diagnosis, which indicates the extent of disease involvement thorugh skin lesions. A greater number indicates of more severe disease.
Have an IGA ≥3 at screening• Investigator’s Global Assessment (IGA) is a 5-score (0-4) index which is scored based on physician’s judgement to report the severity of the disease. A greater number indicates of more severe disease.
History of inadequate response to treatment with topical corticosteroids• Inadequate response to treatment definition: no proper response to medium to high potency topical corticosteroids for 4 weeks or history of receiving systemic treatment for atopic dermatitis.
