Popis: This was a post-hoc analysis of patient-reported outcomes from the LIBERTY AD PEDS randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 3 trial of dupilumab + topical corticosteroids (TCS) in 367 children aged 6–11 years with severe atopic dermatitis (AD). At week 16, significantly more dupilumab-treated patients vs placebo achieved a Patient-Oriented Eczema Measure (POEM) score of 0/1 (“clear skin”/“almost clear skin”), and significantly more reported Children’s Dermatology Life Quality Index (CDLQI) scores of 0/1 (“no effect on life”). Significantly more patients achieved a minimal clinically important difference (≥6 point reduction) in POEM and in CDLQI. Dupilumab (vs placebo) + TCS resulted clinically meaningful improvements in patients’ assessment of AD symptoms and quality of life.
