Atopic Dermatitis

This interview with Andrew Alexis, MD, MPH, features some of the most notable highlights from his AAD 2025 talks on therapeutic and diagnostic pearls for skin of color.

Panelists discuss how common adverse effects impact treatment decisions, requiring adjustments. Experienced adverse reactions are managed with tailored interventions, monitoring, and patient education to ensure optimal care.

Panelists discuss how primary care awareness of biologics and Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors for atopic dermatitis (AD) remain limited, with outreach efforts by dermatology groups and industry partners showing mixed success in education. While patients on biologics generally report significant symptom improvement, measured through validated tools like EASI, SCORAD, and patient-reported outcome measures, ongoing efforts are needed to bridge the knowledge gap in primary care settings.

An analysis of data from the DELTA program at AAD 2025 sheds light on the efficacy of delgocitinib for chronic hand eczema.

Data at AAD 2025 and an announcement from Amgen provide insight into the potential role of rocatinlimab in atopic dermatitis.

Stein Gold highlights her team's findings on tapinarof cream (Vtama) 1% from the 48-week ADORING 3 extension for those aged 2 to 17 with atopic dermatitis.

David Rosmarin, MD, discusses results from ADORING 3 presented at AAD 2025.

New 3-year data from ADjoin demonstrate the efficacy and safety profile of lebrikizumab in moderate to severe atopic dermatitis.

Eapen discussed her research into analyzing the cord blood methylome for markers that predict atopic dermatitis risk at the AAAAI/WAO Joint Congress.

Greiwe discussed findings from the phase 3 ADORING 1 and 2 trials in people as young as 2 years of age.

In these survey findings, a variety of notable findings regarding perceptions of awareness of CHE as well as views on available drugs are highlighted.

A preview of 5 phase 3 clinical trials being presented during the AAD 2025 annual meeting's late-breaking sessions.

Panelists discuss how the emergence of targeted biologics has revolutionized atopic dermatitis treatment by offering effective alternatives to traditional therapies. These agents, including IL-4/IL-13 inhibitors like dupilumab and others targeting specific inflammatory pathways, have provided new options for moderate to severe cases resistant to conventional treatments.

Panelists discuss the current treatment landscape for atopic dermatitis, noting significant advances in biologics and systemic therapies, and share optimism about the future of management, highlighting ongoing research and the potential for more targeted, personalized treatments to improve patient outcomes.

Panelists discuss how upcoming topical therapeutics for atopic dermatitis include corticosteroid-sparing treatments like topical calcineurin inhibitors (eg, tacrolimus, pimecrolimus), Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors (eg, ruxolitinib), and phosphodiesterase-4 inhibitors (eg, crisaborole) for effective symptom management.

Alexis discussed the latest research in the field and new management strategies for children with atopic dermatitis.

These phase 3 data on delgocitinib cream (Anzupgo) 20 mg/g highlight the drug’s potential for adolescents aged 12 years and older with chronic hand eczema (CHE).

Chovatiya discussed his talk at the 2025 AAAAI/WAO Joint Congress.

Kernizan discusses winning the 2024 Society for Pediatric Dermatology Medical Student Mentorship Award and getting into pediatric dermatology as a student.

On Feb. 26, 2025, Arcutis Biotherapeutics announced the FDA's acceptance of their sNDA for roflumilast cream 0.05% in AD for children aged 2 to 5 years.

These data point to increasing omega-3 consumption as a potential preventive strategy against atopic dermatitis.

Ahead of AAAAI 2025, HCPLive spoke with Jaroenpuntaruk about varying hypersensitivity reactions in patients with atopic diseases on biologics.

These findings highlight the prevalence of atopic dermatitis among adults in France, as well as the different factors associated with various disease profiles.

Panelists discuss how primary care physicians often serve as the first point of contact for patients with atopic dermatitis symptoms. Dermatologist referral is typically considered when patients show severe or persistent symptoms despite initial treatment, have unclear diagnosis, require specialized therapies, or experience significant impact on quality of life.
