Successful treatment with dupilumab in mepolizumab-resistant allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis.

A 67-year-old woman with a history of poorly controlled asthma was admitted to our hospital with a persistent cough and abnormal chest radiographic findings. Her diagnosis was allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA). Following treatment with mepolizumab, her symptoms and imaging findings improved initially. However, after approximately 2 years, the patient experienced a recurrent cough with elevated non-specific immunoglobulin E levels and worsening chest imaging findings, thereby changing her diagnosis to recurrent ABPA. Mepolizumab was substituted with dupilumab, and her subjective symptoms and imaging findings improved. Our findings suggest that dupilumab may be effective in ABPA cases following the failure of another antibody therapy.
