Mechanism of action

By antagonizing IL-4 receptor alpha, dupilumab suppresses the IL-4 and IL-13 pathways that drive type 2 inflammatory responses. This reduces production of IgE antibodies, eosinophil recruitment, and other hallmarks of allergic and atopic inflammation. The mechanism is effective across multiple type 2-mediated conditions including atopic dermatitis, asthma, and allergic rhinitis.
