Abstract A man with pityriasis rubra pilaris (PRP) showed no improvement in skin symptoms despite treatment with several drugs. The patient was diagnosed as having type 1 PRP. Combination therapy with cyclosporine and guselkumab improved his skin condition. Here, we propose a novel therapeutic strategy for intractable PRP.
