Abstract

Chronic hand eczema is a fluctuating, inflammatory, pruritic disease of the hands and wrists that is commonly treated with topical corticosteroids and emollients. In a recent report in The Lancet, Bissonnette et al. demonstrated that delgocitinib cream showed superior efficacy versus a cream vehicle and was well tolerated over 16 weeks in adults with moderate to severe chronic hand eczema.

Keywords: Janus kinase inhibitor; atopic dermatits; delgocitinib; hand eczema; topical corticosteroids.
