Lebrikizumab: in adult patients and adolescents from 12 years of age

Lebrikizumab is an IgG4 monoclonal antibody that specifically binds to IL-13 and prevents the formation of the IL-13Rα1/IL-4Rα complex.

In France, it has Marketing Authorization (MA) and reimbursement for the treatment of moderate-to-severe AD in adults and adolescents from 12 years of age.

Recommended dose:
  • 250 mg every 2 weeks after a loading dose of 500 mg at treatment initiation. Once clinical response is achieved, the recommended maintenance dose of lebrikizumab is 250 mg every four weeks.

Reported AEs are mostly mild to moderate, not requiring treatment discontinuation, including HSV infections and conjunctivitis.

Concomitant use of emollients, TCS, TCIs, and phototherapy is possible.
