Key clinical point: Patients with atopic dermatitis (AD) who received ruxolitinib achieved an itch-free state within 2 days, which was maintained throughout the 8-week treatment period.

Major finding: A significantly higher proportion of patients receiving ruxolitinib (1.5%/0.75%) vs vehicle achieved itch numerical rating scale (NRS) score of 0/1 as early as within 2 days (19.0%/15.4% vs 4.6%), with improvements sustained till week 8 (49.5%/43.9% vs 18.3%; all P < .05). The median time to achieve itch NRS 0/1 was <15 days with ruxolitinib cream and not estimable with the vehicle.

Study details: Findings are from a pooled analysis of two phase 3 studies, TRuE-AD1 and TruE-AD2, including 1208 patients with AD and itch NRS score of >1 who were randomly assigned to receive ruxolitinib cream or vehicle.

Disclosures: This study was funded by Incyte Corporation. Three authors declared being employees and shareholders of Incyte Corporation. The other authors declared serving as scientific advisors, investigators, or consultants, or receiving research grants or honoraria from several sources, including Incyte.
