Abstract
Background Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a common skin disease, but treatment of this disease has been challenging. Dupilumab is a new biological agent for AD that has been proven to be safe and effective in clinical trials. Although dupilumab was approved for listing in China in June 2020, real-world data about the application of dupilumab in China are lacking. This study aimed to collect and analyze real-world data on dupilumab among Chinese AD patients. Methods Demographic and clinical data for 116 AD patients receiving dupilumab treatment were reviewed. The Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI), SCORing Atopic Dermatitis (SCORAD), Numerical Rating Scale (NRS), Patient Oriented Eczema Measure (POEM), and Dermatology Quality of Life Index (DLQI) of patients were evaluated every 2 weeks from baseline to 16 weeks of treatment. Any adverse events during treatment were recorded. Results Among the 116 patients in this study, baseline levels of IgE, eosinophils, and LDH were elevated in 62.79% (n = 86), 45.30% (n = 86), and 54.20% of patients (n = 48), respectively. The SCORAD index and POEM, DLQI, and NRS scores were significantly improved in all patients at 2 weeks (p < 0.0001), 4 weeks (p < 0.01), and 16 weeks (p < 0.001). EASI scores also improved significantly in all patients at 2 weeks (p < 0.01), 4 weeks (> 0.05), and 16 weeks (p < 0.01). However, 11 patients (9.48%) had no response. IgE and LDH levels (p > 0.05), Eosinophil counts (p < 0.01) in blood increased temporarily in the first 4 weeks and then decreased and stabilized during dupilumab treatment. Conjunctivitis was the most common adverse event (2.59%) among the patients. We found that the curative efficacy of dupilumab at 4th weeks was related to the patient’s age and course of disease. Nevertheless, there is no relationship between levels of eosinophils, IgE, LDH and the therapeutic efficacy of dupilumab. Conclusion The real-world data in China showed that dupilumab can effectively treat AD and is well tolerated with a low incidence of adverse events.

Efficacy and safety of dupilumab for moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis: A systematic review for the EAACI biologicals guidelines. Allergy 2021; 76:45-58. [PMID: 32691892 DOI: 10.1111/all.14510] [Citation(s) in RCA: 29] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/08/2020] [Accepted: 07/14/2020] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
This systematic review evaluates the efficacy, safety and economic impact of dupilumab compared to standard of care for uncontrolled moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (AD). Pubmed, EMBASE and Cochrane Library were searched for RCTs and health economic evaluations. Critical and important AD-related outcomes were considered. The risk of bias and the certainty of the evidence were assessed using GRADE. Seven RCTs including 1845 subjects >12 years treated with dupilumab 16 to 52 weeks were evaluated. For adults, there is high certainty that dupilumab decreases SCORAD (MD -30,72; 95% CI -34,65% to -26,79%) and EASI-75 (RR 3.09; 95% CI 2.45 to 3.89), pruritus (RR 2.96; 95% CI 2.37 to 3.70), rescue medication (RR 3.46; 95% CI 2.79 to 4.30), sleep disturbance (MD -7.29; 95% CI -8.23 to -6.35) and anxiety/depression (MD -3.08; 95% CI -4.41 to -1.75) and improves quality of life (MD -4.80; 95% CI -5.55 to -4.06). The efficacy for adolescents is similar. Dupilumab-related adverse events (AEs) slightly increase (low certainty). The evidence for dupilumab-related serious AE is uncertain. The incremental cost-effectiveness ratio ranged from 28 500 £ (low certainty) to 124 541 US$ (moderate certainty). More data on long-term safety are needed both for children and for adults, together with more efficacy data in the paediatric population. Registration: PROSPERO (CRD42020153645).
