Key clinical point: The overall improvement in skin clearance and itch reduction suggested a preference for 30 mg upadacitinib over dupilumab and that for 15 mg or 30 mg upadacitinib over placebo in patients with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (AD).

Major finding: At week 24, the aggregate response benefit for skin clearance and itch, respectively, was 32.5% and 25.8% higher with 30 mg upadacitinib vs dupilumab. The benefit favored upadacitinib over dupilumab as early as week 4. Moreover, 15 and 30 mg upadacitinib showed similar benefits over placebo.

Study details: This post hoc analysis of the data from phase 3 studies (Heads Up, Measure Up 1, and Measure Up 2) included 2356 patients with moderate-to-severe AD who received upadacitinib, dupilumab, or placebo.

Disclosures: This study was sponsored by AbbVie. Five authors declared being employees of or owning stock or stock options in AbbVie. Several authors declared being consultants, speakers, or advisors of or having other ties with various sources, including AbbVie.
