Serum samples and tape strips from lesional and non-lesional skin were collected at baseline, 4 and 16 weeks of treatment. Fifteen pre-specified proteins were measured at each visit by Luminex multiplex immunoassay. Clinical severity outcome measures included the Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) and Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) itch.

While the cytokine and chemokine profiles differed between the sampling methods, both effectively captured immunological changes associated with dupilumab treatment. Tape strips demonstrated significant reductions in innate pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-8/CXCL8, IL-18), the T cell-recruiting chemokine CTACK/CCL27, the Type 1 immune mediator CXCL10, and tissue repair and remodelling proteins (periostin, MMP-1) in response to treatment, but were less sensitive in detecting T cell-derived cytokines (IL-4, IL-13). In both skin and serum, several proteins were significantly correlated with AD severity, as measured by EASI and NRS itch, with PARC/CCL18 emerging as the strongest correlated protein.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>Our findings provide insight into the distinct local and systemic proteomic changes in response to dupilumab treatment in paediatric AD patients.

In this retrospective study, 47 adults with HDM-sensitised AD received concurrent Dupilumab and HDM-SCIT for 48 weeks.
