    Abstract The indications for biologic therapy are expanding. Patients may benefit from different biologics for separate conditions or one condition with multiple pathogenic mechanisms targeted by different biologics. We sought to determine the frequency and safety of combining biologics targeting IgE, IL-5, IL-5R, and IL-4/IL-13 in patients referred to a large academic health system through retrospective chart review. Between January 1, 2015 and July 31, 2021, 25 patients receiving multiple biologics simultaneously were identified. Combinations included omalizumab + mepolizumab (n = 11), omalizumab + dupilumab (n = 6), omalizumab + benralizumab (n = 4), mepolizumab + dupilumab (n = 3), and omalizumab + dupilumab + mepolizumab (n = 1). Sixteen patients were receiving multiple biologics for the same condition, most commonly asthma (n = 10). Nine patients were treated for separate conditions, with chronic spontaneous urticaria and atopic dermatitis being the most common combination (n = 3). The median duration of combination biologic use was 17.5 months. There were no reports of anaphylaxis, other allergic reaction, immune dysfunction, pneumonia, or development of malignancy. The use of multiple biologics appears to be well tolerated in this case series. Prospective study is needed to better determine the efficacy, safety, and cost-effectiveness of this approach.

    Abstract Perioperative anaphylaxis is a potentially life-threatening and under-recognized event most commonly caused by antibiotics, neuromuscular blocking agents, dyes, latex, and disinfectants. This review provides updates in the epidemiology and pathogenesis of perioperative anaphylaxis, discusses culprit agents, and highlights the tenets of management including a comprehensive allergy evaluation.

    Abstract Background: The past 2 years of the COVID-19 pandemic brought with it many unknowns for patients with immunodeficiency. Because of the concern for severe infection in those with immunocompromise, patients have been eager for effective prevention, vaccination, and treatment strategies. Preexposure prophylaxis provides another means of prevention in those with immunocompromise. A combination of tixagevimab and cilgavimab (Evusheld [AstraZeneca Cambridge, United Kingdom]) was granted emergency use authorization for preexposure prophylaxis at the end of 2021, but questions remained regarding how this would be tolerated and the side effects associated with its use.
    Objectives: Our aim was to evaluate the safety and tolerability of Evusheld in patients with CVID from our tri-site institution.
    Methods: We performed an institutional review board-approved, retrospective chart review of patients with common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) who received Evusheld before March 26, 2022.
    Results: Of the 45 patients with CVID who received Evusheld, 41 (91%) received the recommended full dose of 600 mg. The majority of patients (39 of 45 [87%]) tolerated Evusheld without adverse events. The adverse events reported included immediate injection site pain, fatigue and cough, an episode of shingles, and chest pain.
    Conclusions: This is an initial report on the safety and tolerability of Evusheld injections in patients with CVID. The majority of patients tolerated the injections without adverse events. For patients with reported chest pain, the results of a subsequent cardiac workup were negative. The efficacy of Evusheld could not be evaluated owing to the short median follow-up of this study (19 days).

    Abstract Eosinophilic disorders include a wide array of conditions in which eosinophils play a primary pathophysiologic role. While historically treated with corticosteroids and immunosuppressants, knowledge of eosinophil biology has led to the development of several biologics targeting eosinophils. In this review, we discuss the current US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved eosinophil-specific biologics targeting IL-5 (mepolizumab and reslizumab) and IL-5R (benralizumab) along with biologics under investigation targeting siglec-8 (lirentelimab). We discuss efficacy and safety data from trials of these medications in conditions including eosinophilic asthma, hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES), eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA), chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis (CRSwNP), eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE), and eosinophilic gastrointestinal disease (EGID). Additionally, we discuss case reports utilizing these medications in conditions including drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS), allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA), and eosinophilic pneumonia, among others. While eosinophilic targeting biologic therapy has been successful in eosinophilic asthma, HES, EGPA, and CRSwNP leading to FDA approval for these conditions, trials treating EoE and EGID have been disappointing to date. Given the increasing number of trials utilizing these biologics, it will be imperative for the allergist-immunologist to stay up to date on the latest treatment options to provide the most optimal care for eosinophilic disorders.
