EADV Congress 2025: Atopic Eczema Linked to Significantly Higher Risk of Suicidal Thoughts
Incyte shares clinical trial results for multiple skin conditions and presents a study showing 13.2% of adults with atopic eczema report suicidal thoughts, highlighting mental health risks.
- On September 17, 2025, the EADV Congress in Paris presented an international study revealing adults with atopic eczema have higher suicidal thoughts.
- This finding follows the 2024 'Scars of Life' study surveying 30,801 adults in 27 countries to explore factors driving this elevated risk in AE patients.
- The study identified younger adults, obesity, pruritus, skin pain, and moderate-to-severe AE as strongly associated with suicidal ideation, with all AE subgroups at higher risk than controls.
- Dr. Delphine Kerob emphasized that future research aims to understand the varying prevalence of suicidal thoughts among patients in different countries, underscoring the significant mental health challenges associated with the skin condition.
- These findings may assist clinicians in identifying and managing difficulties more effectively, while Incyte continues to expand therapeutic options, as demonstrated by multiple late-breaking dermatology presentations at EADV 2025.
