Durability of Near-Complete Skin Clearance in Patients with Psoriasis Using Systemic Biologic Therapies: Real-World Evidence from the CorEvitas Psoriasis Registry
ConclusionsAmong real-world patients with psoriasis who achieved PASI90 with biologic therapy, about one-quarter lost response at 6  months, and half lost response at 18 months. Prior use of a biologic therapy and clinically meaningful skin symptoms at index, including itch and skin pain, were associated with loss of treatment response. Therefore, dermatologists may consider focusing on patient-reported symptoms as part of any intervention designed to reduce the likelihood of loss of response to biologic therapies.Trial RegistrationClinicalTrials.gov identifier, NCT02707341.

Skin Clearance is Associated with Reduced Treatment Failure in Patients with Psoriasis: Real-World Evidence from the CorEvitas Psoriasis Registry
ConclusionsThe results suggest that patients are more likely to remain on a systemic biologic therapy if they achieve near-complete or complete skin clearance, supporting the continued need to target skin clearance as a treatment goal in psoriasis.Trial RegistrationClinicalTrials.gov identifier, NCT02707341.

Dupilumab Safety and Efficacy in a Phase III Open-Label Extension Trial in Children 6 –11 Years of Age with Severe Atopic Dermatitis
ConclusionsConsistent with results seen in adults and adolescents, long-term treatment with dupilumab in children aged 6 –11 years with severe AD showed an acceptable safety profile and incremental clinical benefit. A substantial proportion of children who stopped dupilumab treatment after achieving clear/almost clear skin subsequently experienced disease recurrence, and required reinitiation of dupilumab, suggesti ng that continuous treatment may be necessary for maintenance of clinical benefit.Trial RegistrationClinicalTrials.gov Identifier NCT02612454.

Assessing Response in Atopic Dermatitis: A Systematic Review of the Psychometric Performance of Measures Used in HTAs and Clinical Trials
ConclusionContent validation of the PP-NRS confirmed the importance of itch as a core symptom and treatment priority in AD; however, itch is not well covered in the EASI or IGA. Including the PP-NRS in clinical trials and HTAs will better capture patient-relevant benefit and response. Although various response criteria were used, no studies compared the performance of different criteria to inform which were most appropriate to compare treatments in clinical trials and HTAs.

Calcipotriol and Betamethasone Dipropionate Cream Based on PAD Technology for the Treatment of Plaque Psoriasis: A Narrative Review
This article aims to summarize the most relevant published evidence about CAL/BDP PAD-cream and its underlying PAD Technology. The PAD Technology enables CAL and BDP stability in an aqueous cream through a multimolecular shell structure, as well as it increases the penetration of both active ingredients into the epidermis and dermis. This technology also demonstrated to increase the cosmetic acceptability and to provide the desirable sensory properties for a topical psoriasis treatment. Two phase III clinical trials have been conducted so far with CAL/BDP PAD-cream. Findings from both trials revealed high efficacy with a f...
