Published in 2024 at "Pediatric Dermatology"

DOI: 10.1111/pde.15612

Abstract: Trichothiodystrophy (TTD) is a rare congenital disorder caused by genetic mutations, leading to hair and skin abnormalities. We report successful treatment of a TTD case using dupilumab, a monoclonal antibody targeting IL‐4Rα. The patient, a… read more here.
