00:00The inhibitor jacks have changed the approach to the management of atopic dermatitis

00:10because the characteristic of the inhibitor jack is the speed.

00:14They have an on-off mechanism, like a switch,

00:18when the therapy is taken, it is a pill therapy,

00:22compared to biopharmaceuticals that are injectable,

00:25when it is taken, already in the first 24,

00:28on average 48 hours, you can see the effect of the therapy.

00:32In fact, patients refer in the first 48 hours

00:36to the disappearance of pruritus,

00:38which is the most important symptom of atopic dermatitis,

00:41the most invalidating for the patient,

00:43and already in the first month,

00:46a partial and progressive disappearance of signs of dermatitis.

00:52So it is the rapidity, the characteristic effect,

00:56and a rapidity that is also a sign of effectiveness,

01:00in the sense that we must not think that they are fast,

01:03but then after a certain period of time they do not work,

01:07because this rapidity has then been shown to be maintained even in the long term.

01:12There are data of over 140 weeks for studies, two years,

01:17that show how the rapidity of action on the sign and on the symptom

01:22is then maintained over time.

01:24So we can say that they are fast,

01:26but they are also constant in the effect they produce for the patient.

01:31The data that we have, the Italian experience,

01:34shows us how, but this is a daily experience,

01:37how in reality they are absolutely manageable drugs,

01:41with a good safety profile,

01:44that allow us to manage our patients,

01:47who are sometimes also complex patients.

01:49So all the alarmism that there was at first,

01:52compared to inhibitors,

01:54certainly did not affect the experience of Italian dermatologists,

01:58who enthusiastically accepted this therapy,

02:01and indeed this enthusiasm was then translated into a clinical practice

02:06that confirmed what we saw a little bit from the trials,

02:10and, let's say, removed some doubts on something,

02:13on some topic that could generate some concern.
