Efficacy of downtitration or treatment withdrawal compared with continuous dosing after successful treatment with baricitinib in patients with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis in a randomized substudy from the long-term extension study BREEZE-AD3.

Baricitinib allows flexibility for patients to downtitrate or stop treatment. For patients who downtitrated treatment, the majority maintained efficacy through 16 weeks. Most patients who lost efficacy with downtitration or treatment withdrawal achieved clinically relevant efficacy upon readministration of their original dose.
