Abstract
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a common chronic inflammatory skin condition that disproportionately affects skin of color patients. New targeted biological therapies such as tralokinumab are available for the management of AD, but real-world evidence of their clinical effectiveness in skin of color patients is limited, particularly in patients with difficult-to-treat hand and foot involvement. In this report, we present a case of recalcitrant atopic dermatitis with hand-foot involvement in a skin of color patient successfully treated with tralokinumab.
