Key clinical point: Findings from this network meta-analysis confirm efficacy and safety of topical Janus kinase (JAK) and phosphodiesterase-4 (PDE4) inhibitors for atopic dermatitis (AD).
Major finding: All included JAK and PDE4 inhibitors, specially tofacitinib 2% twice a day (BID; odds ratio [OR], 19.0; 95% confidence interval [CI], 5.6-77.0), delgocitinib 3% BID (OR, 19.2; 95% CI, 4.6-90.3), and ruxolitinib 1.5% once a day (QD; OR, 13.2; 95% CI, 7.5-25.0), showed higher Investigators Global Assessment response vs placebo. Tofacitinib 2% BID (OR, 0.4; 95% CI, 0.1-1.0) and ruxolitinib 1.5% QD (OR, 0.7; 95% CI, 0.5-1.0) had lower risk for adverse events vs placebo, whereas others showed a comparable safety profile.
Study details: Findings are from a network meta-analysis of 10 randomized controlled trials including 4,689 patients, mostly with mild-to-moderate AD treated with topical JAK and PDE4 inhibitors.
Disclosures: This study was supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China and the Project for Disciplines of Excellence, West China Hospital. The authors declared no conflict of interests.
