Key clinical point: In patients with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (AD), baricitinib with or without topical corticosteroids (TCS) resulted in rapid achievement of the recommended absolute Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) and SCORing of AD (SCORAD) outcomes, which were sustained until week 16.

Major finding: An EASI score of ≤7 and a SCORAD score of <25 were achieved by significantly more patients receiving baricitinib (2 or 4 mg) vs placebo at all timepoints from week 1 (all P ≤ .01 and all P ≤ .05, respectively) and those receiving 4 mg baricitinib + TCS vs placebo + TCS at all timepoints from week 2 (all P ≤ .05 for both).

Study details: This post hoc analysis included 1316 patients with moderate-to-severe AD who received baricitinib (2 or 4 mg) or placebo in BREEZE-AD1/AD2 or baricitinib (2 or 4 mg)+TCS or placebo+TCS in BREEZE-AD7 for 16 weeks.

Disclosures: This study was funded by Eli Lilly and Company. Some authors reported ties with various organizations, including Eli Lilly. Three authors declared being current or former employees or shareholders of Eli Lilly.
