Abstract

We present the first case of a dupilumab-induced hyperinflammatory state in the setting of underlying eosinophilic esophagitis characterized by multisystem granulomatous inflammation. Although clinical trial data and subsequent real-world experience support dupilumab as a highly effective therapy for eosinophilic esophagitis, close monitoring for development of adverse symptoms following initiation remains paramount.<br />Competing Interests: Disclosure of potential conflict of interest: A.
