Abstract
Introduction: Tapinarof is a topical aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) agonist in development for the treatment of atopic dermatitis (AD). In two phase 3 trials (ADORING 1 and 2), tapinarof cream 1% once daily (QD) demonstrated significant efficacy and was well tolerated in patients down to age 2 years with AD. Here, we evaluate patient-reported outcomes (PROs), including family impact, with tapinarof in ADORING 1 and 2.
Methods: In ADORING 1 and 2, 813 patients were randomized to tapinarof or vehicle QD for 8 weeks. PROs were assessed using the Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI), Children's Dermatology Life Quality Index (CDLQI), Infants' Dermatitis Quality of Life Index (IDQOL), Dermatitis Family Impact Questionnaire (DFI), and Patient Oriented Eczema Measure (POEM).
Results: Mean baseline DLQI, CDLQI, IDQOL, and DFI scores indicated that the impact on families and patients' quality of life (QoL) of AD was moderate to very large. Mean POEM scores indicated moderate to severe AD symptoms at baseline. Tapinarof improved QoL versus vehicle across all endpoints at week 8: DLQI, - 6.2 vs - 3.5 (P = 0.0031) and - 5.5 vs - 3.5 (P = 0.0028); DFI, - 5.6 vs - 2.9 (P < 0.0001) and - 5.6 vs - 3.8 (P = 0.0037), in ADORING 1 and 2, respectively. Similar improvements in CDLQI and IDQOL were reported with tapinarof versus vehicle. Tapinarof also significantly improved CDLQI, DFI, and POEM sleep subdomain scores versus vehicle. POEM scores also improved with tapinarof versus vehicle: ≥ 12 years, - 9.4 vs - 5.3 and - 10.6 vs - 3.6 (both P < 0.0001); < 12 years, - 11.4 vs - 5.7 (P < 0.0001), and - 10.8 vs - 7.3 (P = 0.0005).
Conclusions: Tapinarof significantly improved QoL across PROs, including sleep and family impact, regardless of age, from week 1 (the earliest evaluation) through week 8. Tapinarof is a once-daily, non-steroidal cream that rapidly improves AD symptoms, sleep, and QoL in patients down to age 2 years with AD.
期刊介绍:
Dermatology and Therapy is an international, open access, peer-reviewed, rapid publication journal (peer review in 2 weeks, published 3–4 weeks from acceptance). The journal is dedicated to the publication of high-quality clinical (all phases), observational, real-world, and health outcomes research around the discovery, development, and use of dermatological therapies. Studies relating to diagnosis, pharmacoeconomics, public health and epidemiology, quality of life, and patient care, management, and education are also encouraged.
Areas of focus include, but are not limited to all clinical aspects of dermatology, such as skin pharmacology; skin development and aging; prevention, diagnosis, and management of skin disorders and melanomas; research into dermal structures and pathology; and all areas of aesthetic dermatology, including skin maintenance, dermatological surgery, and lasers.
The journal is of interest to a broad audience of pharmaceutical and healthcare professionals and publishes original research, reviews, case reports/case series, trial protocols, and short communications. Dermatology and Therapy will consider all scientifically sound research be it positive, confirmatory or negative data. Submissions are welcomed whether they relate to an International and/or a country-specific audience, something that is crucially important when researchers are trying to target more specific patient populations. This inclusive approach allows the journal to assist in the dissemination of quality research, which may be considered of insufficient interest by other journals. The journal appeals to a global audience and receives submissions from all over the world.
