Purpose: This is a review of emerging targeted, systemic therapies for atopic dermatitis (AD). The information presented aims to provide dermatologists with updated therapeutic options, stimulate academic interest, and spark future research.Material and methods: Extensive search of ClinicalTrials.gov, the National Eczema Association, and PubMed was performed for clinical trials examining the effect of emerging targeted, systemic therapies in patients with AD. Results were included if they demonstrated efficacy in reversing AD symptoms. Studies that did not demonstrate clinical benefit were excluded.Results: A number of emerging systemic agents targeting specific mediators involved in the pathogenesis of AD were found. These targets include IL-4, IL-13, IgE, B-cells, IL-5, IL-31, JAK-STAT, SYK, IL-6, PDE-4, IL-12, IL-17, IL-23, IL-22, H4R, NKR1, OR, TSLP, PPAR-, and DGLA. Treatment of AD patients with these therapies has, in many cases, led to statistically significant improvements in clinical severity scores and patient-reported outcomes.Conclusions: While multiple agents have demonstrated efficacy, only dupilumab is currently approved for adults with AD. Large-scale, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind trials, especially in children, are needed. As we enter the dawn of targeted therapy for AD, a comprehensive clinical trial registry is needed to facilitate data pooling and comparison among international registries.
