Key clinical point: Abrocitinib improved signs of atopic dermatitis (AD) rapidly and consistently in difficult-to-treat or cosmetically important anatomical regions, such as the head and neck area.

Major finding: Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) score of the head and neck region improved significantly as early as at 2 weeks with 200 mg abrocitinib (least square mean % change from baseline [Δ] 52.5%) and 100 mg abrocitinib (Δ 47.8%) vs. placebo (0.1%; both P < .0001) and improvements were sustained up to 16 weeks (both P ≤ .0002).

Study details: Findings are from a post hoc analysis of the phase 3 JADE COMPARE study including 837 patients with moderate-to-severe AD who were randomly assigned to receive 16 weeks of treatment with 200 mg abrocitinib, 100 mg abrocitinib, dupilumab, or placebo, all with background topical therapy.

Disclosures: This study was funded by Pfizer Inc. Five authors declared being current/former employees and shareholders of Pfizer and other authors reported ties with various sources, including Pfizer.
