Atopic Dermatitis Successfully Treated with Lebrikizumab in Real-World Clinical Practice in Czech Republic: A Case Series.

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease associated with impaired quality of life and a substantial burden of disease. Lebrikizumab is a monoclonal antibody that selectively binds with high affinity to interleukin-13, thereby inhibiting its cascade signaling and reducing inflammation. Lebrikizumab has demonstrated efficacy and safety in adults and adolescents ≥ 12 years with moderate-to-severe AD in randomized, placebo-controlled, phase 3 clinical trials. Here, we report a case series of four patients with moderate-to-severe AD who transitioned to lebrikizumab treatment in the Czech Republic. All four patients had failed previous targeted therapies (biologics or Janus kinase inhibitors) and/or cyclosporine treatments and presented with associated comorbidities. After 12 to 16 weeks of treatment with lebrikizumab, clinically significant improvements in signs and symptoms (assessed by Eczema Area and Severity Index [EASI], pruritus Numerical Rate Scale, quality of life assessed by the Dermatology Life Quality Index [DLQI], and/or Patient Oriented Eczema Measure [POEM]) were reported. The results of these four clinical cases support the effectiveness observed in randomized clinical trials and suggest that lebrikizumab may be an effective treatment for moderate-severe AD in real-world clinical practice, even in patients with comorbidities who have failed previous advanced treatments.
