Join Professors Jean-David Bouaziz, Amy Paller, and Alan Irvine for a dynamic presentation on the multifaceted burden of atopic dermatitis, the evolving concept of disease modification, and how targeted systemic therapies may help improve long-term patient outcomes.
Join Professors Brusselle and Backer as they discuss the concept of disease modification in asthma.

Dr. Amy Paller discusses the evolving concepts of early intervention and disease modification in AD and describes potential biomarkers of subclinical control at EADV 2025.

In this soundbite video from the April 2025 ADVENT Forum in Lisbon, Portugal, Prof. Oscar Palomares reviews the cellular and molecular pathways underlying atopic dermatitis and considers which biomarkers may one day serve as robust measures of disease modification, despite no validated options currently being available.
The underlying pathophysiology of atopic dermatitis (AD) is driven by dysregulation of type 2 immunity that contributes to skin barrier dysfunction. AD typically develops very early in life and children with AD often develop other atopic conditions such as food allergy, asthma, and allergic rhinitis in a progression called the atopic march. Early treatment may help reduce the atopic march and other comorbidities to lessen the lifetime burden created by these diseases. There may even be a window of opportunity for disease modification.

In this soundbite video from the April 2025 ADVENT Forum in Lisbon, Portugal, Dr. Eric Simpson explains how both clinical and subclinical disease control are critical for achieving true disease modification in atopic dermatitis, emphasizing the role of biomarkers in predicting long-term outcomes and guiding treatment decisions.

In this video from the 2024 Society for Pediatric Dermatology Symposium held in Toronto, Canada, Dr. Amy Paller, MD explores the possibilities for disease modification in atopic dermatitis.

In this highlight video from the September 2024 ADVENT symposium at EADV’s Annual Meeting in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, Dr. Eric Simpson explores potential considerations when discussing the concept of disease modification and how early intervention might be disease modifying in AD.

Dr Kwatra poses the question: How do we assess disease modification in PN, and can treating early stop tissue damage and worsening of systemic diseases associated with PN?
Explore the concept of disease modification in atopic dermatitis through this interactive infographic, which highlights potential considerations such as optimal sustained disease control, subclinical inflammation, the pathophysiology of AD, and atopic/non-atopic comorbidities.

In this video from the 2024 Society for Pediatric Dermatology Symposium held in Toronto, Canada, Dr. Amy Paller, MD and Dr. Peter Lio, MD discusses the role of atopic dermatitis as a risk factor for developing food allergies. Moreover, explores the potential opportunities for early intervention to alter disease trajectories and the possibilities for disease modification in atopic dermatitis.
Dr. Lara Wine Lee discusses the concept of cumulative life course impairment in AD, focusing on non-atopic comorbidities like vertical growth deficits and mental health impairment and how these might be preventable with early intervention at PeDRA 2025.
