OVERVIEW

Best Practices and Emerging Evidence in the Treatment of Atopic Dermatitis in Children and Adolescents is organized by i3 Health.

Dates Available:
December 20, 2024 - December 19, 2025

Statement of Need:
Atopic dermatitis is a chronic, relapsing, inflammatory skin disease that impacts up to 20% of children in the United States (Silverberg et al, 2021). Children with atopic dermatitis experience a high symptom burden, including pruritus, pain, and sleep disturbances, which significantly impact quality of life. Recently, the therapeutic landscape for atopic dermatitis has expanded  to include several new options for children (Chu et al, 2024; Davis et al, 2024). Nonsteroidal topicals, topical and oral JAK inhibitors, and anti–IL-4 receptor alpha and anti–IL-13 monoclonal antibodies, are now available to patients. Others, including therapies targeting the OX40 pathway, are under late-stage investigation (Tsuji et al, 2023). As new therapies emerge, it is crucial for members of the interdisciplinary care team to learn about these options that can optimize outcomes for patients. In this activity, Dr. Peter A. Lio, Clinical Assistant Professor of Dermatology & Pediatrics at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, and Dr. Linda F. Stein Gold, Director of Dermatology Clinical Research and Division Head of Dermatology at Henry Ford Health, provide insights into best practices and emerging evidence in the treatment of atopic dermatitis in children and adolescents.

Learning Objectives:
Upon completion of this activity, participants should be able to

  • Appraise clinical features that can inform the differential diagnosis of AD in children and adolescents 
  • Evaluate the efficacy and safety of novel and emerging therapies for AD in children and adolescents
