Introduction: A comprehensive review of the English-language medical literature was performed searching for on-going and closed clinical trials concerning new and emerging monoclonal antibody therapies for moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis in adults. Areas covered: Atopic dermatitis is a chronic inflammatory cutaneous disease with a complex pathogenesis. In the last years, numerous advances in understanding the atopic dermatitis pathogenesis allowed to obtain several therapeutic options, such as numerous monoclonal antibodies. Some monoclonal antibodies, such as dupilumab (anti-IL-4 Rα) and tralokinumab (anti-IL13) are already approved for the treatment of moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis, and numerous articles in the literature have demonstrated their efficacy and safety. As there are numerous drugs under investigation, this review focuses on emerging monoclonal antibodies therapies. Expert opinion: There are numerous monoclonal antibodies under investigation that may be approved in the near future for the treatment of atopic dermatitis. Data from phase 2b and phase III clinical trials in moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis in adults indicate that these drugs have a promising efficacy and safety profile. Monoclonal antibodies currently under investigation will be available in the coming years to enrich the therapeutic choice of new alternatives that are valid both in terms of efficacy and safety.
