CANadian Effectiveness of UPadacitinib in Adult Moderate-to-severe aTopIc derMatitis Patients Who Are Inadequate Responders to Dupilumab or diScontinuing Dupilumab Due to safEty/Tolerability Reasons: The CAN UpTIMISE Study

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a skin condition that may cause a rash and itching due to inflammation of the skin. Therapies spread over the skin may not be enough to control the AD in trial participants who require systemic anti-inflammatory treatment. This study will assess the real-world effectiveness of upadacitinib on adult participants with moderate-to-severe AD who are inadequate responders to dupilumab or who are discontinuing from dupilumab due to safety/tolerability reasons. This study also aims to understand upadacitinib utilization patterns in real-world clinical practice.

In Canada, upadacitinib is indicated for the treatment of adults and adolescents 12 years of age and older with refractory moderate to severe atopic dermatitis (AD) who are not adequately controlled with a systemic treatment (e.g., steroid or biologic) or when use of those therapies is inadvisable. CAN UpTIMISE will enroll approximately 100 adult participants, 18 years of age and above, with moderate-to-severe AD who are inadequate responders to dupilumab or are discontinuing from dupilumab from up to 25 sites in Canada.

Participants will receive oral upadacitinib tablets as prescribed by the physician prior to enrolling in this study in accordance with the terms of the local marketing authorization and professional and reimbursement guidelines with regards to dose, population, and indication. The overall duration of the study is approximately 4 Months.

Participants will attend regular visits per routine clinical practice. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, using questionnaires, and reporting potential side-effects.

Measure Description
Time Frame
Percentage of Participants Achieving Validated Investigator Global Assessment for Atopic Dermatitis (vlGA-AD) of 0 or 1
Time Frame: Month 4
vIGA-AD is a validated assessment instrument used in clinical studies to rate the severity of AD globally. A 5-point scale is used to measure the severity of disease at the time of the investigator's evaluation of the participant ranging from 0 - Clear (no inflammatory signs of atopic dermatitis (no erythema, no induration/papulation, no lichenification, no oozing/crusting). Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation and/or hypopigmentation may be present.) to 4 - Severe (marked erythema (deep or bright red), marked induration/papulation, and/or marked lichenification.

From Baseline to Month 4
Percentage of Participants with an Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) score corresponding to, at least, mild disease (≥1.1) at baseline achieving an absolute EASI score corresponding to clear or almost clear disease (<1.1)
Time Frame: Up to 4 Months

EASI is a tool used to measure the extent (area) and severity of atopic eczema based on assessments of the head/neck, trunk, upper limbs and lower limbs. For each region the area score is recorded as the percentage of skin affected by eczema. For each region, the severity score is calculated as the sum of the intensity scores (scored as none [0], mild [1], moderate [2], or severe [3]) for redness (erythema, inflammation), thickness (induration, papulation, swelling - acute eczema), scratching (excoriation), and lichenification (lined skin, prurigo nodules - chronic eczema).

The total EASI score for each region is calculated by multiplying the severity score by the area score, with adjustment for the proportion of the body region to the whole body. The final EASI score is the sum of the 4 region scores and ranges from 0 to 72 where higher scores represent worse disease.

It consists of 10 questions assessing impact of skin diseases on different aspects of subject's QoL over the prior week. Each item is scored on a 4-point scale: 0 = not at all/not relevant; 1 = a little; 2 = a lot; and 3 = very much. Item scores (0 to 3) are added to provide a total score range of 0 to 30.

Percent change in Body surface area (BSA) score from baseline
Time Frame: Up to 4 Months
The investigator selects the participant's right or left hand as the measuring device. For purposes of clinical estimation, the total surface of the palm plus five digits is assumed to be approximately equivalent to 1%. Measurement of the total area of involvement by the investigator is aided by imagining if scattered plaques were moved so that they were next to each other and then estimating the total area involved. Published score bands: 0% (clear), 0.1-15.9% (mild), 16.0-39.9% (moderate), 40-100% (severe).
