AbroSkib Cohort Adult patients with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis who are eligible for and will receive systemic therapy with abrocitinib by their treating dermatologist as part of standard healthcare (n=20). The choice of therapy is strictly done by the treating dermatologist only, and the reasons for the choice will be captured by a structured documentation. |

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Change in transepidermal water loss (TEWL) at one non-lesional and one lesional marker skin area at week 2 and week 12 compared to baseline/week 0 (day 0). [12 Weeks]
To determine the mean change of TEWL in g/m2/h at one non-lesional and one lesional marker skin site at week 2 and week 12 compared to baseline
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Number of epidermal barrier-related genes/pathways differentially expressed in a marker lesional skin site at week 2 and week 12 compared to baseline [12 Weeks]
To compare the expression of epidermal barrier-related genes at the transcriptome level at a marker lesional skin site at week 2 and week 12 to baseline and to non-lesional skin
- Epidermal thickness and epidermal differentiation markers in a marker lesional skin site at week 2 and week 12 compared to baseline [12 Weeks]
To compare epidermal thickness (in µm) and the percentage of marker-positive cells (KRT 16, Ki67, FLG) in a marker skin site with reference to the number of cells in the basal layer at week 2 and 12 to baseline and to non-lesional skin
- Stratum corneum biomarker (cytokine) levels (pg/μg protein) in marker skin sites at week 2 and week 12 compared to baseline [12 Weeks]
To compare stratum corneum biomarker (cytokine) levels (pg/μg protein) in a marker lesional skin site at week 2 and week 12 compared to baseline and to non-lesional skin
- Composition of Bacterial Taxa of one lesional and non-lesional marker skin area at week 2 and week 12 compared to baseline [12 Weeks]
To identify changes in community composition and diversity at one lesional and one non-lesional marker skin site at week 2 and week 12 as compared to baseline using Next Generation Sequencing techniques
Other Outcome Measures
- Transcriptional profile of the keratinocytes in one lesional marker skin area at week 2 and 12 compared to baseline [12 Weeks]
To compare the transcriptional profile of keratinocytes at one lesional marker skin area at week 2 and 12 compared to baseline and to non-lesional skin using single cell sequencing techniques
