Prurigo-like atopic dermatitis in a child with CARD11-associated severe combined immunodeficiency successfully treated with dupilumab

A 12-year-old boy affected by severe combined immunodeficiency due to a heterozygous variant in the CARD domain of CARD11, c.169G>A; p.Glu57Lys, developed severe atopic dermatitis and alopecia areata. After failure of conventional systemic therapy, dupilumab was administered at a dose of 400 mg subcutaneously, followed by 200 mg every 14 days. The patient had an excellent clinical response after 1 month and complete remission after a year, with the absence of side effects, demonstrating good efficacy and safety profile.
