UNASSIGNED: Periorificial dermatitis (POD) is a common, chronic, inflammatory facial skin rash that presents as tiny papules and papulopustules with underlying eczematous-like patches, typically confined to the perioral, perinasal, and periorbital areas. There is currently no Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-indicated treatment for POD; however, broad-spectrum antibiotics are efficacious as a treatment option. Broad-spectrum antibiotics negatively impact gut flora and lead to antibiotic resistance. Narrow-spectrum tetracyclines, such as sarecycline, have a low potential for promoting bacterial resistance and gastrointestinal issues.
UNASSIGNED: We conducted a retrospective chart review in order to evaluate the efficacy of sarecycline in a cohort of patients diagnosed with POD that were treated with sarecycline.
UNASSIGNED: A review of medical records was completed using an electronic medical record. Inclusion criteria included males and females aged 18 to 95 with a diagnosis of POD, treated with sarecycline with a documented follow-up.
UNASSIGNED: Six patients met inclusion criteria, all of which had shown improvement with no reported side effects. Of the six patients, four were female and two were male and the patient ages ranged from 26 to 58 years old (mean=41 years). The course of therapy ranged from 30 to180 days (median=90 days).
UNASSIGNED: Based on the outcomes, there are many potential benefits to treatment of POD with sarecycline over the alternative tetracycline-class antibiotics. There is a need for more large-scale clinical studies evaluating treatment options for POD. Based on the efficacy and tolerability of sarecycline in large- scale acne studies, sarecycline may be an appropriate novel treatment option for POD and should be explored further.

BACKGROUND: Acne vulgaris commonly affects adults, adolescents, and preadolescents aged 9 years or older.
OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to provide evidence-based recommendations for the management of acne.
METHODS: A work group conducted a systematic review and applied the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation approach for assessing the certainty of evidence and formulating and grading recommendations.
RESULTS: This guideline presents 18 evidence-based recommendations and 5 good practice statements. Strong recommendations are made for benzoyl peroxide, topical retinoids, topical antibiotics, and oral doxycycline. Oral isotretinoin is strongly recommended for acne that is severe, causing psychosocial burden or scarring, or failing standard oral or topical therapy. Conditional recommendations are made for topical clascoterone, salicylic acid, and azelaic acid, as well as for oral minocycline, sarecycline, combined oral contraceptive pills, and spironolactone. Combining topical therapies with multiple mechanisms of action, limiting systemic antibiotic use, combining systemic antibiotics with topical therapies, and adding intralesional corticosteroid injections for larger acne lesions are recommended as good practice statements.
CONCLUSIONS: Analysis is based on the best available evidence at the time of the systematic review.
CONCLUSIONS: These guidelines provide evidence-based recommendations for the management of acne vulgaris.

Dasatinib is a second-generation tyrosine inhibitor that is used for the treatment of patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). It can cause a myriad of skin toxicities, including pruritis, pigmentary abnormalities of hair and skin, and maculopapular rashes. Rarely, it can be associated with acneiform eruptions, which are typically treated with doxycycline. However, doxycycline may not be an ideal therapy, especially for long-term use, due to the risk of gut flora disruption, antimicrobial resistance, and side effects. We present a case of a CML patient who developed an acneiform eruption associated with dasatinib and was successfully treated with sarecycline, a narrow-spectrum tetracycline. Given its targeted spectrum of activity, sarecycline has a lower risk of antimicrobial resistance and an improved safety profile compared to first- and second-generation tetracyclines such as doxycycline. As acneiform drug eruptions can have a significant impact on a patient\'s quality of life, effective management by dermatologists is paramount. Sarecycline may be a suitable treatment with a favorable safety profile, making it an appropriate choice for patients, especially those who require long-term therapy.

Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory disease with a multifactorial pathogenesis. The wide spectrum of clinical phenotypes, including erythema, telangiectasia, inflammatory papules and pustules, and phyma, demand an individualized approach to treatment. This narrative review offers an updated reference for rosacea management by covering the latest developments in both topical and systemic treatments, including data from newly approved therapies, updates to current treatment modalities and ongoing clinical trials. Although use of benzoyl peroxide as a treatment for rosacea has typically been limited due to irritation, the improved tolerability due to microencapsulation of benzoyl peroxide 5% cream provides a new therapeutic option for patients with rosacea. Minocycline foam and topical ivermectin cream add to our armamentarium of treatment options, particularly for inflammatory papules and pustules. Sarecycline has a narrower spectrum of antibacterial activity, which might reduce the development of antibiotic resistance and disruption of the microbiome compared to other oral antibiotics. Brimonidine gel and oxymetazoline cream provide topical options for redness and flushing. There is emerging evidence about the role of hydroxychloroquine and intradermal botulinum toxin A, which may improve rosacea through their effects on mast cells. The clinical trials pipeline includes agents with a variety of mechanisms, including mast cell stabilization, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and vasoconstrictive effects. However, the clinical pipeline for rosacea appears limited, and there remain important unmet needs for patients with more recalcitrant rosacea or phymatous disease. In addition, there is a need for comparative effectiveness studies to identify the highest value treatment approaches for patients with rosacea.

Tetracycline-class drugs are frequently used in dermatology for their anti-inflammatory properties to treat skin diseases such as acne, rosacea, and hidradenitis suppurativa (HS). The American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) clinical guidelines do not offer guidance regarding the co-administration of food with tetracycline-class drugs. The objectives of this study were to review the available evidence regarding whether taking tetracycline-class drugs with food decreases systemic absorption and is associated with an impact on clinical efficacy. A literature search was conducted using the PubMed database between February to May 2023 using the keywords \"tetracycline-class drugs\", \"pharmacokinetics\", \"absorption\", and \"dermatology\". Inclusion criteria included articles written in English and relevant to the absorption and efficacy of tetracycline-class drugs. This search yielded 131 articles written between 1977 to 2022, of which 29 met the criteria for review. United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved prescribing information for oral formulations of tetracycline, doxycycline, minocycline, and sarecycline were reviewed. Systemic absorption of tetracycline decreased when co-administered with food. Systemic absorption of oral doxycycline and minocycline was variable with food co-administration. The impact on bioavailability varied with the drug formulation and dosage. The absorption of oral sarecycline decreased when administered with food. Sarecycline is the only oral antibiotic where population pharmacokinetic studies demonstrated limited or no impact of food intake on clinical efficacy. There are no available data for other tetracycline-class drugs in dermatology. If patients find it more tolerable to take doxycycline, minocycline, and sarecycline with food to avoid gastrointestinal distress, this may merit consideration to encourage patient adherence. Since the impact of food intake on absorption varied with the dosage form of doxycycline and minocycline, consulting the appropriate package insert may give clinicians additional insight into differences in the various formulations.

Mycobacterium abscessus infections are increasing worldwide necessitating the development of new antibiotics and treatment regimens. The utility of third-generation tetracycline antibiotics was reestablished; their anti-M. abscessus activity needs further study. The activities of omadacycline (OMC), eravacycline (ERC), tigecycline (TGC), and sarecycline (SAC) were tested against two reference strains and 193 clinical M. abscessus isolates at different temperatures (30°C and 37°C). The minimum bactericidal concentrations (MBCs) of the four drugs were determined to distinguish between their bactericidal and bacteriostatic activities. The MICs of OMC, ERC, and TGC for the reference strains and clinical isolates were summarized and compared. OMC, ERC, and TGC exhibited a high level of bacteriostatic activity against M. abscessus. The MICs of OMC and ERC for M. abscess remained stable, while the MICs of TGC for the isolates/strains increased with increasing temperature. Notably, the MICs of OMC for M. abscessus isolates obtained in the United States are lower than for those obtained in China. IMPORTANCE The antimicrobial activities of four third-generation tetracycline-class drugs, omadacycline (OMC), eravacycline (ERC), tigecycline (TGC), and sarecycline (SAC), were determined for 193 M. abscessus isolates. The activities of the four drugs at two different temperatures (30°C and 37°C) were also tested. OMC, ERC, and TGC exhibited significant activity against M. abscessus. The anti-M. abscessus activity of TGC increased when the temperature was increased from 30°C to 37°C; the activities of OMC and ERC, on the other hand, remained the same. We found that in vitro MICs of OMC against Chinese and American isolates were distinct. Evaluations in in vivo models of M. abscessus disease or in the clinical setting will provide more accurate insight into potency of OMC against distinct isolates.

Non-tuberculous mycobacterial infections are gradually increasing worldwide, with slow-growing mycobacteria such as Mycobacterium avium, Mycobacterium intracellulare and Mycobacterium kansasii accounting for the majority of cases. The use of tetracyclines has received renewed attention in recent years, and this study was designed to investigate the antibacterial activity of omadacycline, eravacycline, tigecycline, sarecycline, minocycline and doxycycline against M. avium, M. intracellulare and M. kansasii. Susceptibility testing of six tetracyclines was conducted against M. avium, M. intracellulare and M. kansasii isolates, and all the clinical isolates were collected from January 2012 to December 2018. All six agents exhibited poor antibacterial activity against slowly growing mycobacteria (SGM) isolates of three subspecies with MIC50 and MIC90  ≥8 μg/mL. M. intracellulare and M. kansasii had lower resistance rates to omadacycline than the other five drugs. The severe resistance of SGM to tetracycline suggests that developing tetracycline-class antibiotics needs to overcome existing resistance mechanisms.
