Derms and Conditions Podcast Episode 93:

The Best of Fall Clinical 2024—Live from Las Vegas!

Release Date: October 31, 2024


In this special live episode of Derms and Conditions, recorded at the Fall Clinical Dermatology 2024 Meeting, host Dr James Q. Del Rosso welcomes Dr April Armstrong, chief of dermatology at UCLA, to discuss key highlights from the conference. Together, they cover the latest in psoriasis treatments, promising developments for vitiligo, advances in hidradenitis suppurativa, and much more. 

The discussion kicks off with psoriasis, where exciting progress in oral TYK2, IL-23, and IL-17A inhibitors is providing potential for effective, safe options for moderate-to-severe cases. For atopic dermatitis, they review the recent approval of lebrikizumab and the real-world efficacy of tralokinumab for head and neck involvement. They also spotlight OX40/OX40 ligand inhibitors—amlitelimab and rocatinlimab—as promising long-acting treatments currently in development. 

In prurigo nodularis, the newly approved nemolizumab, an IL-31 inhibitor, offers antifibrotic benefits and has notably not shown evidence of conjunctivitis risk seen with other biologics. For vitiligo, BET inhibitors are creating new opportunities by targeting epigenomics, and several JAK inhibitors are pending phase 3 data. For hidradenitis suppurativa, focus has shifted from TNF inhibitors to IL-17 inhibitors like secukinumab, with bimekizumab and oral JAK inhibitors, including povarcitinib, in late-stage development. 

They round out the episode with chronic hand eczema, where topical ruxolitinib and delgocitinib—a pan-JAK inhibitor recently approved in Europe—show encouraging results. 

Tune in to the full episode for a full recap of these developments and other breakthroughs from the Fall Clinical Dermatology 2024 Meeting!
