Efficacy and safety of abrocitinib in patients with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis and comorbid allergies.

Background: Abrocitinib efficacy by comorbidity status in patients with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (AD) has not been previously assessed. This post hoc analysis evaluated the efficacy and safety of abrocitinib in patients with AD and allergic comorbidities.

Methods: Data were pooled from patients who received abrocitinib 200 mg, 100 mg, or placebo in phase 2b (NCT02780167) and phase 3 (NCT03349060, NCT03575871) monotherapy trials.

Abrocitinib efficacy and safety in patients with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis: Results from phase 3 studies, including the long-term extension JADE EXTEND study.

Background: Abrocitinib improved signs and symptoms of moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (AD) at 12 or 16 weeks in phase 3 studies with a manageable safety profile. Further understanding of the abrocitinib long-term efficacy and safety profile is important for its appropriate use in treating chronic AD.

Objective: To evaluate the abrocitinib efficacy up to 48 weeks and long-term safety in patients with moderate-to-severe AD.

Comparing how well abrocitinib and dupilumab treat atopic dermatitis signs and symptoms: a plain language summary.

What Is This Summary About?: Atopic dermatitis (AD, also called atopic eczema) is a skin disease that that can affect a person for a long time and causes red or flaky skin that can be itchy and uncomfortable. Healthcare providers can prescribe medicated creams and ointments to reduce the visible signs and symptoms of AD, but these treatments are not always enough to keep it under control. A new medicine called abrocitinib is taken every day as a tablet.

Efficacy and safety of abrocitinib versus dupilumab in adults with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis: a randomised, double-blind, multicentre phase 3 trial.

Background: Phase 3 trials have assessed efficacy of abrocitinib versus placebo in moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis, a common immunoinflammatory skin disease. This study assessed the efficacy and safety of abrocitinib versus dupilumab.

Methods: This randomised, double-blind, double-dummy, active-controlled, parallel-treatment, phase 3 trial enrolled adults with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis who requir=ed systemic therapy or had inadequate response to topical medications.

Molecular and cellular mechanisms of itch and pain in atopic dermatitis and implications for novel therapeutics.

Atopic dermatitis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease. Patients with atopic dermatitis experience inflammatory lesions associated with intense itch and pain, which lead to sleep disturbance and poor mental health and quality of life. We review the molecular mechanisms underlying itch and pain symptoms in atopic dermatitis and discuss the current clinical development of treatments for moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis.

Rapidity of Improvement in Signs/Symptoms of Moderate-to-Severe Atopic Dermatitis by Body Region with Abrocitinib in the Phase 3 JADE COMPARE Study.

Introduction: Atopic dermatitis (AD) can affect multiple body regions and is especially burdensome when involving exposed skin areas. Rapid, effective treatment of AD across body regions remains an unmet need, particularly for difficult-to-treat areas such as the head and neck area. We investigated the temporal and regional patterns of clinical improvement in AD with the use of abrocitinib, an orally available Janus kinase 1 selective inhibitor under development for the treatment of moderate-to-severe AD.
