Key clinical point: A cream containing 1% ectoine and 0.1% hyaluronic acid (EHA) demonstrated superior efficacy than a vehicle cream and was well-tolerated in children aged 2-18 years with mild-to-moderate atopic dermatitis (AD).
Major finding: At week 4, patients receiving EHA cream achieved a significantly higher clinical improvement in SCORing AD (mean difference [MD] −6.62; P < .001) and Investigator’s Global Assessment scores (MD −0.69; P < .001) than those receiving vehicle cream. Mild adverse events like skin erythema, pruritus, and burning skin were reported by 23.5% of patients receiving EHA cream and 5.7% of patients receiving vehicle cream.
Study details: Findings are from an observer-blind, multicenter clinical trial including 57 children aged 2-18 years with mild-to-moderate AD who were randomly assigned to receive EHA or vehicle cream twice daily for 4 weeks.
Disclosures: This study was funded by BODERM SA. The authors declared no conflicts of interest.
