Effectiveness, Safety, and Health-Related Quality of Life in Moderate-to-Severe Atopic Dermatitis Treated with Lebrikizumab: A 16-Week Nationwide Retrospective Cohort Study.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin condition that significantly affects the quality of life (QoL). Lebrikizumab, a biologic drug targeting interleukin-13, demonstrated efficacy and safety in clinical trials. However, real-world data remain limited, largely restricted to Asian populations.
