Michael Cameron, MD, FAAD, and Christopher Bunick, MD, PhD: The Future of Personalized Atopic Dermatitis Treatments to Predict and Avoid Adverse Events

Drs. Bunick and Cameron discuss a case series recently published in the May 2025 issue of The Journal of Clinical and Aesthetic Dermatology that describes dupilumab-associated arthralgia in patients with atopic dermatitis that resolved after switching to tralokinumab. They discuss Dr. Cameron’s patient experience from the case series, clinical takeaways of the article, and how advancements in the understanding of patient endotypes can improve patient care in the future.
