A case of complete recovery in a hypereosinophilic dermatitis patient with dupilumab

BACKGROUND: Hypereosinophilic dermatitis (HED) is a subtype of hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES). Glucocorticoids are preferred for treatment but carry substantial side effect profiles. Symptoms of HED may recur after systemic glucocorticoid tapering. As an interleukin-4 receptor (IL-4Rα) monoclonal...

description BACKGROUND: Hypereosinophilic dermatitis (HED) is a subtype of hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES). Glucocorticoids are preferred for treatment but carry substantial side effect profiles. Symptoms of HED may recur after systemic glucocorticoid tapering. As an interleukin-4 receptor (IL-4Rα) monoclonal antibody targeting interleukin-4 (IL-4) and interleukin-13 (IL-13), dupilumab might be an efficacious adjuvant therapy for HED. METHOD: We report a young male diagnosed with HED who suffered from erythematous papules with pruritus for over five years. Once reducing the dosage of glucocorticoid was, his skin lesions relapsed. RESULTS: After using dupilumab, the patient’s condition significantly improved with the glucocorticoid dosing decreased successfully. CONCLUSION: In conclusion, we report a new application of dupilumab in HED patients, especially with difficulties in reducing the glucocorticoid dose.
