Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic, relapsing inflammatory skin disease that impacts approximately 10-15% of the population in the United States and Canada. Lebrikizumab is a novel systemic human monoclonal immunoglobulin G4 antibody that inhibits the activity of interleukin-13. In June 2024, lebrikizumab was approved by Health Canada for the treatment of moderate-to-severe AD in adults and adolescents who are 12 years of age and older, followed by US Food and Drug Administration approval in September 2024. This review provides an overview of data from clinical trials on the efficacy and safety of lebrikizumab in adult patients.
