Monoclonal Antibodies: Current Advancements and Future Potential for Atopic Dermatitis Therapy

Atopic Dermatitis (AD) is an inflammatory skin condition with a severe itch. The topical therapy using corticosteroids is not sufficient for the effective therapy of moderate to severe cases of AD. The investigation and development of immunological targetspecific human monoclonal antibodies have changed the paradigm for the therapy of moderate to severe cases of AD.

The establishment of target-specific, tolerable, and efficacious human monoclonal antibodies might lead to the better management of moderate to severe cases of AD.

The scientific literature available in databases, such as Pubmed and Clinicaltrial. gov, was searched and discussed for available clinical therapeutic information.

The present review has discussed the potential immunological targets of specific monoclonal antibodies developed and approved or which are under investigation in clinical trials.

The development of targeted monoclonal antibodies can improve the understanding of the role of different immunological pathways and biomarkers in AD and become the future of AD treatment.
