Key clinical point: Dupilumab + low-potency topical corticosteroids (TCS) led to rapid and sustained improvement in disease severity in all anatomical regions (head and neck, trunk, upper extremities, and lower extremities) in children with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (AD).

Major finding: The dupilumab + TCS vs placebo + TCS group had a significant improvement in least-squares mean Eczema Area and Severity Index scores in all 4 anatomical regions by week 2 (all P < .0001) that sustained throughout the 16-week treatment.

Study details: This post hoc analysis of the LIBERTY AD PRESCHOOL trial included 162 children (age, 6 months-5 years) with moderate-to-severe AD who were randomly assigned to receive dupilumab + low-potency TCS or placebo + low-potency TCS every 4 weeks.

Disclosures: This study was funded by Sanofi and Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Five authors declared being employees or stockholders of Sanofi/Regeneron. The rest declared serving as consultants, investigators, speakers, or advisory board members for and receiving grants or personal fees from various sources, including Sanofi and Regeneron.
