Article Synopsis
- - A study evaluated the effectiveness and safety of dupilumab for treating bullous pemphigoid in elderly patients, with a focus on those who typically have other health issues that make standard treatments unsuitable.
- - The results showed that 53.4% of patients achieved complete remission within 4 weeks and 95.7% by week 52, with a significant reduction in itchiness and a dramatic decrease in the need for corticosteroids.
- - The treatment was found to be safe, with most adverse events being mild, and factors like shorter disease duration and exclusive skin involvement were linked to better treatment responses.
