Key clinical point: Ruxolitinib cream demonstrated effective disease control and was well tolerated in patients with atopic dermatitis (AD) during 44 weeks of as-needed treatment.
Major finding: At week 52, 74.1%-77.8% of patients had an Investigator’s Global Assessment score of 0/1, with the mean affected body surface area being 1.4%-1.8%. Treatment-related adverse events were reported in 8.7%/7.4% of patients on 0.75%/1.5% ruxolitinib and in 2.0%/6.1% of those who switched from vehicle to 0.75%/1.5% ruxolitinib, respectively.
Study details: This study analyzed pooled data from two phase 3 studies, TRuE-AD1 and TRuE-AD2, including 1249 patients aged ≥12 years with AD who were randomly assigned to receive 0.75% or 1.5% ruxolitinib cream or vehicle for 8 weeks; thereafter, the vehicle group patients were re-assigned to receive either strength ruxolitinib cream for 44 weeks.
Disclosures: This study was funded by Incyte Corporation, U.S. Some authors reported ties with various sources, including Incyte. Four authors declared being current or former employees and shareholders of Incyte.
