Key clinical point: Upadacitinib demonstrated an acceptable safety profile and led to significant and sustained improvements in disease signs and symptoms through 48 weeks of observation in patients with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (AD) who were unresponsive to conventional treatments.
Major finding: At weeks 16 and 48, an Eczema Area and Severity Index-75 response was achieved by 78.2% and 87.6% of patients, respectively, with a significant reduction in mean sleeplessness, skin pain, and itch Numeric Rating Scale scores (all P < .001). Most adverse events were of mild-to-moderate severity.
Study details: This real-world prospective study included 146 adult patients with moderate-to-severe AD who were unresponsive, intolerant, or had contraindications to the approved therapies for moderate-to-severe AD and received 15 or 30 mg upadacitinib alone or combined with corticosteroids for 48 weeks.
Disclosures: This study did not receive any funding. Some authors, including the lead author, declared serving as investigators, speakers, advisory board members, or consultants for or receiving lecture or speaker honoraria, research grants, or personal fees from various sources.
