- Abstract
Long-term daily practice data on patient-reported benefits of dupilumab for atopic dermatitis (AD) remains limited. To evaluate patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) and the safety of dupilumab in patients with moderate-to-severe AD over a follow-up period of up to 5 years. Data were extracted from the prospective, multicenter BioDay registry (October 2017–2022) of patients with moderate-to-severe AD treated with dupilumab in daily practice. In total 1223 patients, 1108 adults and 115 pediatric patients were included. After ≥1 year of treatment, mean Patient-Oriented Eczema Measure (POEM), Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI), Numeric rating scale (NRS)-pruritus ranged between 7.8 and 8.7, 3.5 and 4.2, and 2.9 and 3.1 in adults, respectively, whilst these patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) ranged between 8.9 and 10.9, 4.4 and 6.4, and 3.0 and 3.7 in pediatric patients, respectively. At follow-up, overall work impairment decreased from 40.1% to 16.3% to 13.3% in adults. Furthermore, class I obesity and itch-dominant patients generally had less favorable treatment response. Of all patients, 66.8% reported ≥1 adverse event, with conjunctivitis being the most common (33.7%). The overall percentage of missing values for selected PROMs was 26% in adults and 46% in pediatric patients. In addition to favorable safety, dupilumab has demonstrated sustained effectiveness across various PROMs, underscoring the treatment benefits from patients' perspectives. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
