Clinical Update: Novel Agents for the Long-Term Management of Moderate-to-Severe Atopic Dermatitis
February 6, 2021
Online
ACTIVITY OVERVIEW
The increasing incidence of Atopic dermatitis (AD) and poor recognition of the disease in some patient groups is a public health concern. AD symptoms and its daily management cause significant effects on quality of life for both patients and caregivers. AD is associated with an increase in other atopic manifestations as well as with serious comorbidities that can greatly affect overall patient health and wellbeing (Silverberg 2015; Simpson 2012; Yu 2016; Zheng 2011). Timely and adequate treatment of AD is essential for helping to promote better long-term outcomes and quality of life and may help prevent the development of other atopic conditions (Leung 2014). However, the treatment of AD is a clinical challenge. Patients continue to report treatment dissatisfaction, recurrent flares, and impaired quality of life (Silverberg 2018; Wei 2019). Targeted immunomodulatory agents, based on recent advances in the understanding of AD pathophysiology, represent additional options for longterm control, with one agent that is FDA approved and several others in advanced clinical development (Kalamaha 2019). Thus, additional education about current and emerging long-term strategies to AD management is crucial for their interpretation and application to clinical practice.
TARGET AUDIENCE
This symposium is designed for an audience of physicians, nurses and professional staff members of medical practices specializing in dermatology as well as allergists, primary care physician, nurses, nurse practitioners, physician assistants and pharmacists.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Upon completion of the educational activity, participants should be able to: • Interpret the efficacy and safety of current non-pharmacological and pharmacological treatments for AD and their limitations in long-term disease management. • Summarize the mechanisms of action and evidence with new and emerging targeted immunomodulatory agents for long-term AD management • Develop individualized treatment plans for patients with moderate-to-severe AD that go beyond just treating flares and symptoms in order to optimize long-term control and overall quality of life

Time to Think About Both Skin and Joint Disease: Optimizing the Diagnosis and Management of Psoriatic Arthritis Through Multidisciplinary, Patient-Centered Care
February 6, 2021
Online
ACTIVITY OVERVIEW
Psoriasis is a chronic and inflammatory skin disease with potential systemic implications that affects 7.5 million people in the United States (Bhushan 2016; Soleymani 2018) that can lead to several comorbidities, including psoriatic arthritis, obesity, metabolic syndrome, and cardiovascular disease (Soleymani 2018). Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial in managing PsA, and clinicians need to understand the impact of both skin and joint aspects of psoriasis and PsA in order to minimize impact on patients’ quality of life (QOL). Current methods to assess disease severity may not be practical to use in routine care, contributing to the undertreatment or incorrect treatment of PsA (Elmets 2019). Due to ongoing suboptimal management of PsA, there is a need to educate clinicians that treat patients with PsA on the diagnosis and current treatment approach, particularly in light of new guidelines for psoriasis (Elmets 2019) and PsA (Singh 2019).
TARGET AUDIENCE
This symposium is designed for an audience of physicians, nurses and professional staff members of medical practices specializing in dermatology, plastic surgery, cosmetic surgery, rheumatology and other dermatologic medical procedures.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Upon completion of the educational activity, participants should be able to: • Identify key clinical features of PsA in order to improve timely screening, diagnosis, or referral • Utilize practical strategies to evaluate PsA severity that incorporate both joint and skin manifestation in order to guide treatment • Develop individualized treatment strategies for patients with PsA based on the efficacy and safety of current and emerging pharmacotherapies, evidence-based guidelines, and patient specific needs and preferences

Diversity in Derm Treatments: Skin of Color
February 6, 2021
Online
ACTIVITY OVERVIEW
There are gaps in dermatologic care today concerning patients with skin of color (SOC) that need to be addressed through education and putting new knowledge into practice. Patients with SOC can be disproportionately affected by dermatologic conditions such as melasma, acne, rosacea, and hyperpigmentation. Even children with SOC can be more susceptible or have a greater disease burden, especially with conditions such as acne, vitiligo, atopic dermatitis, keloids, pityriasis alba, and traction alopecia. It is important that clinicians are not only aware of these disparities across multiple disease states, but that they are aware of changes to practice that need to be made. The Skin of Color Symposia is designed to address these gaps in dermatologic care for SOC patients by reviewing skin conditions prevalent in SOC patients or those which disproportionately burden SOC patients. Participants will gain education needed to better treat these conditions and modify current practices to accommodate the needs of patients with darker pigmented skin.
TARGET AUDIENCE
This symposium is designed for an audience of physicians, nurses and professional staff members of medical practices specializing in dermatology, plastic surgery, cosmetic surgery and other dermatologic medical procedures.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Upon completion of the educational activity, participants should be able to: • Identify the challenges in treating SOC patients for melasma and the considerations that must be made in designing a treatment plan • Review the clinical and aesthetic treatments available for melasma patients • List current and emerging vitiligo treatments for pediatric patients. • Describe the impact of vitiligo in patients with darker pigmented skin and implications for managing vitiligo in this setting. • Classify current and emerging treatments for acne patients, including recommendations for treating the pediatric patient population. • Summarize the challenges associated with different acne and rosacea treatment options for patients with skin of color • Prioritize how to diagnose acne and rosacea in patients with skin of color. • Articulate current and emerging AD treatments for pediatric patients. • Recognize the ways in which pediatric AD patients with SOC are affected in terms of managing their condition. • Distinguish the prevalence of keloids in the SOC population • Recall conventional treatment options for pediatric keloid patients
