ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Real-world data on the effectiveness of systemic therapy in atopic dermatitis (AD) are limited.METHODS:
Adult patients with AD in the CorEvitas AD registry (2020-2021) who received systemic therapies for 4-12 months prior to enrollment were included based on disease severity body surface area (BSA) 0%-9% and BSA ≥10%. Demographics, clinical characteristics, and outcomes were assessed using descriptive statistics. Pairwise effect sizes (ES) were used to compare BSA groups.RESULTS:
The study included 308 patients (BSA 0%-9% 246 [80%]; BSA ≥10% 62 [20%]). Despite systemic therapy, both BSA groups reported the use of additional topical therapy and the presence of lesions at difficult locations. Moderate-to-severe AD (vIGA-AD®) was reported by 11% (BSA 0%-9%) and 66% (BSA ≥10%; ES = 0.56) of patients. Mean disease severity scores total BSA (2% and 22%; ES = 3.59), EASI (1.1 and 11.1; ES = 2.60), and SCORAD (12.1 and 38.0; ES = 1.99). Mean scores for PROs DLQI (3.7 and 7.5; ES = 0.75), and peak pruritus (2.2 and 4.5; ES = 0.81). Inadequate control of AD was seen in 27% and 53% of patients (ES = 0.23).CONCLUSIONS:
Patients with AD experience a high disease burden despite systemic treatment for 4-12 months. This study provides potential evidence of suboptimal treatment and the need for additional effective treatment options for AD.
This real-world study assessed clinical characteristics and overall disease burden in adult patients with atopic dermatitis (AD) who were receiving systemic therapy for 412 months.Patients reported greater involvement of back and anterior trunk, and lesions at difficult locations. Irrespective of body surface area involvement, patients continued to experience inadequate control of AD, varied disease severity, and impact on quality of life.The study provides potential evidence of suboptimal treatment and the need for effective treatment options for the management of AD. Besides clinical outcomes, treating dermatologists and dermatology practitioners should include patient-reported outcomes in routine clinical care to determine the best treatment options for their patients.
