Abstract

The Th2 cytokines interleukin 4 (IL‐4) and IL‐13 and the heterodimeric IL‐4 receptor (IL‐4R) complexes that they interact with play a key role in the pathogenesis of allergic disorders. Dupilumab is a humanized IgG4 monoclonal antibody that targets the IL‐4 receptor alpha chain (IL‐4Rα), common to both IL‐4R complexes: type 1 (IL‐4Rα/γc; IL‐4 specific) and type 2 (IL‐4Rα/IL‐13Rα1; IL‐4 and IL‐13 specific). In this review, we detail the current state of knowledge of the different signalling pathways coupled to the IL‐4R complexes and examine the possible mechanisms of Dupilumab action and survey its clinical efficacy in different allergic disorders. The development of Dupilumab and the widening spectrum of its clinical applications is relevant to the current emphasis on precision medicine approaches to the blockade of pathways involved in allergic diseases.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
