Key clinical point: Dupilumab significantly improved the overall sleep continuity and quality, itch, and other signs and symptoms of atopic dermatitis (AD) in patients with moderate-to-severe AD.
Major finding: At week 12, dupilumab vs placebo led to a significant improvement in the sleep Numeric Rating Scale (NRS), peak pruritus NRS, SCORing Atopic Dermatitis (SCORAD), SCORAD sleep visual analog scale, Eczema Area and Severity Index, Epworth Sleepiness Scale, and sleep-related impairment T-scores (all P < .001) and a lower overall treatment-emergent adverse event rate (56.7% vs 67.2%).
Study details: Findings are from the prospective phase 4 DUPISTAD study including patients with moderate-to-severe AD who were randomly assigned to receive 300 mg dupilumab every 2 weeks (n = 127) or placebo (n = 61).
Disclosures: This study was sponsored by Sanofi and Regeneron Pharmaceuticals Inc. Three authors declared being employees of and holding stocks or stock options in Sanofi or Regeneron. Other authors declared receiving grant support, travel grants, or speaker fees from or serving as principal investigators, advisory board members, or consultants for various sources.
