Effect of Anti‐IL‐23 and Anti‐IL‐17 Therapy on Darier Disease: A Case Series
Australasian Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Darier disease is a rare ATP2A2‐related genodermatosis for which therapeutic options remain limited, as acitretin is often constrained by toxicity and teratogenicity. In this retrospective real‐world case series of eight patients, anti‐IL‐17 therapy showed a more consistent early signal of clinical benefit than anti‐IL‐23 therapy, with greater
