Hyperimmunoglobulin E syndrome (HIES) is a group of rare genetic disorders characterized by severe atopic dermatitis and recurrent skin and pulmonary infections. The efficacy of dupilumab in pediatric patients with HIES-associated severe atopic dermatitis is relatively understudied. Here, we present a series of three children with HIES, two with AD-HIES caused by STAT3 mutations, and one with AR-HIES caused by biallelic mutations in ZNF341. In all cases, dupilumab treatment led to sustained clearance of severe atopic dermatitis over multiple years, as well as improvements in systemic symptoms of HIES.

Understanding the pathophysiology of inflammatory skin diseases, including psoriasis, atopic dermatitis (AD), and prurigo nodularis (PN), has led to the development of innovative treatments. In the February issue of the Journal, we provide insight into the global epidemiology and psychosocial impact of psoriasis. We also discuss the role of tissue-resident memory T cells in disease recurrence and evaluate the effectiveness of tildrakizumab in treating difficult areas in psoriasis.
