A clinical trial of intradermal and intramuscular seasonal influenza vaccination in patients with atopic dermatitis.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Antibody responses to the inactivated seasonal influenza vaccine in patients with atopic dermatitis (AD) have not been carefully characterized. OBJECTIVE:The primary objective of this study was to compare antibody responses to intradermal vaccination in participants with moderate/severe AD with those in nonatopic participants. Secondary objectives were to evaluate the effect of route of administration, Staphylococcus aureus skin colonization, and disease severity on vaccine response. METHODS:This was an open-label study conducted in the 2012-2013 influenza season at 5 US clinical sites. A total of 360 participants with moderate/severe AD or nonatopic subjects were assessed for eligibility, 347 of whom received intradermal or intramuscular vaccination per label and were followed for 28 days after vaccination. The primary outcome was the difference in the proportion of participants achieving seroprotection (hemagglutination-inhibition antibody titer ?1:40 on day 28 after vaccination). RESULTS:Seroprotection rates for influenza B, H1N1, and H3N2 were not different (1) between participants with AD and nonatopic participants receiving intradermal vaccination and (2) between AD participants receiving intradermal and intramuscular vaccination. After intradermal, but not intramuscular, vaccination, participants with AD with S aureus colonization experienced (1) lower seroprotection and seroconversion rates and lower hemagglutination-inhibition antibody titer geometric mean fold increase against influenza B and (2) lower seroconversion rates against influenza H1N1 than noncolonized participants with AD. CONCLUSION:Participants with AD colonized with S aureus exhibited a reduced immune response to influenza vaccination compared with noncolonized participants after intradermal but not intramuscular vaccination. Because most patients with AD are colonized with S aureus, intramuscular influenza vaccination should be given preference in these patients.

Project description:Avian influenza virus causes outbreaks in domestic and wild birds around the world, and sporadic human infections have been reported. A DNA vaccine encoding hemagglutinin (HA) protein from the A/Indonesia/5/05 (H5N1) strain was initially tested in two randomized phase I clinical studies. Vaccine Research Center study 304 (VRC 304) was a double-blinded study with 45 subjects randomized to placebo, 1 mg of vaccine, or 4 mg of vaccine treatment groups (n = 15/group) by intramuscular (i.m.) Biojector injection. VRC 305 was an open-label study to evaluate route, with 44 subjects randomized to intradermal (i.d.) injections of 0.5 mg by needle/syringe or by Biojector or 1 mg delivered as two 0.5-mg Biojector injections in the same deltoid or as 0.5 mg in each deltoid (n = 11/group). Injections were administered at weeks 0, 4, and 8 in both studies. Antibody responses to H5 were assessed by hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) assay, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and neutralization assay, and the H5 T cell responses were assessed by enzyme-linked immunospot and intracellular cytokine staining assays. There were no vaccine-related serious adverse events, and the vaccine was well tolerated in all groups. At 1 mg, i.d. vaccination compared to i.m. vaccination induced a greater frequency and magnitude of response by ELISA, but there were no significant differences in the frequency or magnitude of response between the i.d. and i.m. routes in the HAI or neutralization assays. T cell responses were more common in subjects who received the 1- or 4-mg dose i.m. These studies demonstrated that the DNA vaccine encoding H5 is safe and immunogenic and served to define the proper dose and route for further studies. The i.d. injection route did not offer a significant advantage over the i.m. route, and no difference was detected by delivery to one site versus splitting the dose between two sites for i.d. vaccine administration. The 4-mg dose (i.m) was further investigated in prime-boost regimens.

Project description:ImportanceCendakimab selectively targets interleukin (IL)-13, a type 2 cytokine implicated in atopic dermatitis (AD) pathogenesis, by inhibiting binding to its receptors (IL13R-α1 and IL13R-α2). Proof-of-concept work in AD supports using cendakimab for type 2 inflammatory diseases.ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficacy and safety of cendakimab compared with placebo in patients with moderate to severe AD.Design, setting, and participantsThis phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, dose-ranging clinical trial was conducted from May 2021 to November 2022. Adult patients with moderate to severe AD and inadequate response to topical medications were enrolled at 69 sites in 5 countries (US [n = 26], Japan [n = 17], Canada [n = 9], Poland [n = 9], and Czech Republic [n = 8]). Data were analyzed between April 25, 2023, and October 16, 2023.InterventionsPatients were randomized (1:1:1:1) to receive subcutaneous cendakimab, 360 mg, every 2 weeks; 720 mg, every 2 weeks; 720 mg, once weekly; or placebo.Main outcome and measureMean percentage change in Eczema Area and Severity Index scores from baseline to week 16. Hierarchical testing with multiplicity adjustment was performed for 720 mg, once weekly vs placebo, then 720 mg, every 2 weeks vs placebo, and then 360 mg, every 2 weeks vs placebo.ResultsOverall, 221 patients were randomized, and 220 received study drug (95 women [43%]; mean [SD] age, 37.7 [13.9] years; 720 mg, once weekly [54 (24%)]; 720 mg, every 2 weeks [55 (25%)]; 360 mg, every 2 weeks [55 (25%)]; placebo [56 (26%)]). The primary efficacy end point was met for cendakimab, 720 mg, once weekly vs placebo (-84.4 vs -62.7; P = .003) but missed statistical significance for 720 mg, every 2 weeks (-76.0 vs -62.7; P = .06). The treatment effect for 360 mg, every 2 weeks (-16.3; nominal P = .03 vs placebo) was comparable with 720 mg, once weekly (-21.8); however, significance was not claimed because the hierarchical testing sequence was interrupted. Of patients with treatment-emergent adverse events leading to discontinuation, 4 (7.4%) received 720 mg, once weekly; 2 (3.6%) 720 mg, every 2 weeks; 1 (1.8%) 360 mg, every 2 weeks; and 2 (3.6%) placebo.Conclusions and relevanceThe results of this randomized clinical trial indicated that cendakimab was effective, generally safe, and well-tolerated in patients with moderate to severe AD. The primary end point was met with a significant reduction in Eczema Area and Severity Index scores with 720 mg, once weekly at week 16. Cendakimab demonstrated progressive AD improvement at all doses during 16 weeks of treatment.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04800315.

Project description:BackgroundAtopic dermatitis (AD) is a skin barrier dysfunction characterized by tissue eosinophilia.ObjectiveIn patients with AD, we evaluated the effect of eosinophil depletion with benralizumab on markers of inflammation in skin after intradermal allergen challenge.MethodsA total of 20 patients with moderate-to-severe AD completed a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled parallel-group study comparing 3 doses of benralizumab (30 mg each) administered subcutaneously every 4 weeks (n = 9) with placebo (n = 11). Allergen and saline control intradermal challenges were conducted before and after treatment, with skin biopsy samples collected 24 hours after challenge. Early and late cutaneous responses were measured by skin wheal size. Levels of eosinophils and IL-5 receptor-α-bearing cells, including eosinophil progenitor (EoP) cells, basophils, and mast cells, in papillary dermis were measured by immunofluorescence microscopy, and levels of EoP cells, hematopoietic progenitor cells, and type 2 innate lymphoid cells in the blood were measured by flow cytometry. Outcomes were compared between the placebo and benralizumab treatment groups by using the Mann-Whitney U test.ResultsBenralizumab reduced eosinophil counts in the blood (P < .0001) and allergen-challenged skin, as measured by hematoxylin and eosin staining and eosinophil cationic protein antibody concentration (P < .05). Benralizumab lowered the levels of EoP cells, mast cells, and basophils in the skin, as well as the levels of EoP cells, hematopoietic progenitor cells, and type 2 innate lymphoid cells in the blood (all P < .05). There was a trend toward improvement in the early cutaneous response (P = .095) but no effect on the late cutaneous response.ConclusionIn patients with moderate-to-severe AD, benralizumab treatment significantly inhibited accumulation of eosinophils and other IL-5 receptor-α-expressing cells in the papillary dermis after intradermal allergen challenge. Targeting IL-5 receptor-α-positive cells did not modulate the size of the allergen-induced skin wheal (ClincialTrials.gov identifier NCT03563066).

Project description:ImportanceAtopic dermatitis is a common and debilitating skin condition characterized by intense itching and chronic inflammation. Research on behavioral treatments with high accessibility is needed.ObjectiveTo investigate the efficacy of a highly scalable internet-delivered cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) for adults with atopic dermatitis.Design, setting, and participantsThis randomized clinical trial from a medical university in Stockholm, Sweden, included 102 adults with atopic dermatitis, recruited from across Sweden, who received 12 weeks of internet-delivered CBT (March 29, 2017, to February 16, 2018). The first participant provided screening data on November 27, 2016, and the last 1-year follow-up assessment was conducted on June 28, 2019.InterventionsParticipants were randomized in a 1:1 ratio to 12 weeks of therapist-guided internet-delivered CBT (n = 51) or a control condition (n = 51) that gave instructions about standard care.Main outcomes and measuresThe primary outcome was the between-group difference in mean reduction of atopic dermatitis symptoms as measured by the Patient-Oriented Eczema Measure and modeled intention to treat during the 12-week treatment period.ResultsA total of 102 participants (mean [SD] age, 37 [11] years; 83 [81%] female) were recruited and randomized. The primary analysis indicated that participants receiving internet-delivered CBT, relative to the controls, had a significantly larger mean weekly reduction in symptoms of atopic dermatitis as measured with the Patient-Oriented Eczema Measure (B = 0.32; 95% CI, 0.14-0.49; P < .001), with a moderate to large, controlled effect size after treatment (d = 0.75; 95% CI, 0.32-1.16). Secondary analyses indicated that internet-delivered CBT also produced significantly larger reductions in itch intensity, perceived stress, sleep problems, and depression. Gains were sustained at 12 months of follow-up. Treatment satisfaction was high, and therapists spent a mean (SD) of 39.7 (34.7) minutes per treated patient providing internet-delivered CBT.Conclusions and relevanceInternet-delivered CBT appears to be efficacious for reducing symptoms of atopic dermatitis, despite requiring minimal therapist resources. Thus, internet-delivered CBT has the potential to increase access to effective adjunct behavioral treatment for patients with this common skin condition.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT03051958.

Project description:ImportanceAbrocitinib, an oral, once-daily Janus kinase 1 selective inhibitor, was effective and well tolerated in a phase 3 monotherapy trial of patients with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (AD).ObjectiveTo investigate the efficacy and safety of abrocitinib in adolescents and adults with moderate-to-severe AD in an identically designed trial.Design, setting, and participantsThis phase 3, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, parallel-group randomized clinical trial included patients 12 years or older with a clinical diagnosis of moderate-to-severe AD for at least 1 year and inadequate response to topical medications given for at least 4 weeks within 6 months. Patients were enrolled from 115 centers in Australia, Bulgaria, Canada, China, Czechia, Germany, Hungary, Japan, South Korea, Latvia, Poland, United Kingdom, and the United States from June 29, 2018, to August 13, 2019. Data were analyzed from September 13 to October 25, 2019.InterventionsPatients were randomly assigned (2:2:1) to receive once-daily oral abrocitinib in 200- or 100-mg doses or placebo for 12 weeks.Main outcomes and measuresThe coprimary end points were the proportion of patients achieving Investigator Global Assessment (IGA) response (ie, clear [0] or almost clear [1], with improvement of ≥2 grades) and the proportion of patients achieving at least 75% improvement in Eczema Area and Severity Index score (EASI-75) at week 12. Key secondary end points included the proportion of patients achieving a Peak Pruritus Numerical Rating Scale (PP-NRS) response (ie, improvement of ≥4 points) at week 12. Other secondary end points included the proportion of patients achieving at least 90% improvement in EASI score (EASI-90). Safety was assessed via adverse events and laboratory monitoring.ResultsA total of 391 patients (229 male [58.6%]; mean [SD] age, 35.1 [15.1] years) were included in the analysis; of these, 155 received abrocitinib, 200 mg/d; 158, abrocitinib, 100 mg/d; and 78, placebo. Among patients with available data at week 12, greater proportions of patients in the 200- and 100-mg abrocitinib groups vs the placebo group achieved IGA (59 of 155 [38.1%] and 44 of 155 [28.4%] vs 7 of 77 [9.1%]; P < .001) and EASI-75 (94 of 154 [61.0%] and 69 of 155 [44.5%] vs 8 of 77 [10.4%]; P < .001), greater estimated proportions achieved PP-NRS (55.3% [95% CI, 47.2%-63.5%] and 45.2% [95% CI, 37.1%-53.3%] vs 11.5% [95% CI, 4.1%-19.0%]; P < .001), and/or greater proportions achieved EASI-90 (58 of 154 [37.7%] and 37 of 155 [23.9%] vs 3 of 77 [3.9%]) responses. Adverse events were reported for 102 patients (65.8%) in the 200-mg group, 99 (62.7%) in the 100-mg group, and 42 (53.8%) in the placebo group; serious adverse events were reported for 2 patients (1.3%) in the 200-mg group, 5 (3.2%) in the 100-mg group, and 1 (1.3%) in the placebo group. Decreases in platelet count (2 [1.3%]) and laboratory values indicating thrombocytopenia (5 [3.2%]) were reported in the 200-mg group.Conclusions and relevanceMonotherapy with once-daily oral abrocitinib was effective and well tolerated in adolescents and adults with moderate-to-severe AD.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT03575871.
