Bullous pemphigoid: what the trials found

Dupilumab has demonstrated significant efficacy in achieving sustained remission at week 36 compared to the control group (4.0% vs. 18.2%, p=0.0250) 1. Additionally, patients treated with dupilumab experienced a statistically significant reduction in peak pruritus scores from baseline to week 36 (-26.7% vs. -51.8%, p=0.0025) 1. However, there was no statistically significant difference between the groups regarding the total cumulative dose of oral corticosteroids (OCS) from baseline to week 36 1.

Efgartigimod PH20 SC showed a reduction in the 24-hour average itch NRS score at week 36 compared to the control group (-4.4 vs. -2.4) 3. While both groups showed similar reductions in BPDAI total activity scores, a higher number of participants achieved an IGA-BP score of 0 while off OCS therapy for at least 8 weeks at week 36 in the efgartigimod group (9 vs. 3) 3.

Omalizumab was associated with a 22.5% decrease in the total body surface area affected by active bullous pemphigoid skin disease from day 0 to week 24 2.

Recent results — preliminary, needs further review

  • Bertilimumab showed varying levels of reduction in BPDAI scores, with participants achieving 50%, 70%, and 90% reductions at rates of 6, 5, and 4 respectively 4. This intervention was associated with an 8.6% reduction in BPDAI pruritus (VAS) and an 11% improvement in ABQOL scores 4.

For the clinician treating this condition

  • Dupilumab is effective for achieving sustained remission and significantly reducing peak pruritus in patients with bullous pemphigoid 1.
  • Efgartigimod PH20 SC may support a higher rate of patients achieving an IGA-BP score of 0 while off OCS therapy compared to control groups 3.
  • Omalizumab has been shown to reduce the total body surface area affected by active disease 2.
