PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

While guidelines regarding the management of AD in children have been published, variability persists in practice. Treatment inconsistencies and the chronic and relapsing nature of AD can lead to frustration for patients, family, and caregivers when managing AD. This program will focus on providing AD caregivers an update on recent pathophysiological findings that drive new therapeutic targets; reviewing severity and diagnosis of AD; and discussing the clinical profiles of existing and emerging agents, with focus on treatment individualization.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

  • Review recent pathophysiological findings in AD that have informed the selection of new therapeutic targets
  • Describe best practices for severity assessment and diagnosis of moderate-to-severe AD in pediatric patients, accounting for biomarkers, phenotype/genotype, comorbidities, and disease burden
  • Explain the mechanisms of action and clinical profiles of new and emerging targeted systemic agents for the long-term treatment of AD in pediatric patients
  • Discuss how different biomarkers, comorbidities and adherence barriers play a role in long-term treatment decision making for pediatric patients with AD

TARGET AUDIENCE

This activity is intended for US-based dermatologists and other health care professionals who diagnose, treat, and/or manage patients with AD.
