SARS-CoV-2 pandemic had a general and deep impact on the clinical management of chronic diseases, including respiratory and allergic disorders. At the beginning of the pandemic, one of the main concerns was the potential impact of immunosuppressive/immunomodulatory drugs on COVID-19 clinical course. In this review, we aim to summarize and analyze the available clinical evidence from patients treated with anti-type 2 inflammation biologics (including anti-IgE, anti-IL-5 and anti-IL-4 agents), who developed COVID-19. Overall, the treatment with anti-Th2 biologics can be considered safe during COVID-19. It does not worsen the clinical course and outcome of COVID-19, and it may be actually protective somehow from developing severe forms. Moreover, patients treated with these biological agents do not seem to be more prone to get infected by SARS-CoV-2.

“…Our real-life experience confirms data reported in literature about effectiveness of dupilumab in adolescent. [7][8][9] We observed a marked reduction in the median values of pruritus assessed by SCORAD and ppNRS, in association with an improvement of skin involvement. The decrease of pruritus recorded at week 4 was slightly lower than the one we had detected in adult patients (37.5 vs. 50%) in a much larger cohort.…”

“…The first drug approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for treatment of moderate to severe AD was dupilumab in December 2020. Dupilumab is approved for adolescents with moderate to severe AD eligible for systemic therapy and can currently be considered as a first-choice systemic treatment in this population [10,11].…”

Introduction: Nemolizumab, a new monoclonal antibody that targets the receptor alpha of the neuroimmune cytokine interleukin-31 (IL-31), has shown efficacy in atopic dermatitis (AD) in adults. This study evaluated the pharmacokinetics (PK) and safety of nemolizumab in adolescents with moderate to severe AD as well as the relationship between nemolizumab concentrations and clinical efficacy and the effect of nemolizumab on protein biomarkers. Methods: Open-label, 16-week study of nemolizumab in patients aged 12-17 years with moderate to severe AD (baseline EASI C 16, IGA C 3, and BSA C 10%) and associated pruritus with baseline average daily peak pruritus numeric rating scale (PP-NRS) intensity of at least 4. Nemolizumab was administered subcutaneously as a loading dose of 60 mg at baseline, followed by 30 mg every 4 weeks until week 12 with background topical corticosteroids (TCS) or calcineurin inhibitors (TCI). Subsequently patients were followed for 8 weeks more. Stratum corneum (SC) and plasma samples were collected for biomarker assessments. Results: Twenty patients participated, with a mean age of 14.8 ± 1.6 years. The PK of nemolizumab was described by a one-compartment model with linear elimination, a first-order absorption, and a mean half-life of 16.7 ± 4.1 days. Mean trough concentrations ranged from 2935 ± 1029 ng/mL to 3292 ± 2018 ng/mL over the 16-week treatment period.
