Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - 60 Years (Adult)All SexesAccepts Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Ability to sign informed consent form.
  • Body mass index (BMI), 22-29 kg/m^2.
  • Diagnosis of Atopic Dermatitis treated with dupilumab for longer than 6 months.
  • Diagnosis of Atopic Dermatitis treated with topical steroids or phototherapy.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Any prescription for systemic glucocorticoid, immunosuppressant, antidiabetic medications in the past 6 months.
  • Evidence of diabetes mellitus.
  • Morning Cortisol < 5 mg/dl (collected before 10.30 am).
  • Presence of acute illness.
  • Low hemoglobin or hematocrit.

  • Pregnant or breastfeeding.
  • Personal history of gastric bypass surgery.
  • Previous participation in a clinical trial with an investigational product in the past 30 days, or 5 half-lives, or twice the duration of the biological effect of the investigational drug (whichever is longest).

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm 2

Arm Type

Experimental

Active Comparator

Arm Label

Subjects on Dupilumab

Subjects on Phototherapy

Arm Description

individuals with atopic dermatitis placed on dupilumab for more than 6 months will be eligible to this study. Their metabolic profile will be compared to the group of "Subjects on Phototherapy"

individuals with atopic dermatitis placed on phototherapy for more than 6 months will be eligible to this study to serve as an active comparator to the "Subjects with Dupilumab"

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Homa IR
Homeostatic Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance will be calculated by multiplying the fasting glucose concentration (mg/dl) by the fasting insulin concentration (mmol/L).
Matsuda Index
The Matsuda index is able to estimate peripheral insulin sensitivity by computing the product of glucose and insulin collected during the OGTT.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Adipo-IR
Adipo-IR will be calculated by multiplying the fasting FFA concentration (mmol/L) by the fasting insulin concentration (pmol/L) obtained during the baseline blood collection during the oral glucose tolerance test
Systemic inflammatory markers
Circulating plasma levels of inflammatory markers interleukin 1 (IL1), Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFa), highly sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), Monocyte Chemoattractant Protein 1 (MCP1), interleukin 6 (IL-6), Interleukin 4 (IL-4) and interleukin 13 (IL13)
Adipokines
We will measure the plasma levels of adipokines (leptin and adiponectin) by radioimmunoassay and ELISA in all subjects recruited and compared across study group
Fasting Free Fatty Acid
During the OGTT, we will collect fasting blood to assess levels of plasma free fatty acid (mmol/L). These values will be compared across the 2 different group studied.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to better understand the interactions between the innate immune system, in particular eosinophils, their secreted cytokines (interleukin-4), and metabolism in human health and disease states such as obesity and insulin resistance.
Detailed Description
Patients with a body mass index (BMI) less than 30 kg/m2 and a history of atopic dermatitis on long-term (greater than 6 months) treatment with dupilumab. Researchers will compare in vivo evaluations of insulin sensitivity in subjects on dupilumab vs subjects matched for similar weight and BMI, with atopic dermatitis, but without dupilumab therapy (phototherapy).
