Mutations in DOCK8 cause a combined immunodeficiency (CID) also classified as autosomal-recessive hyper-IgE syndrome (HIES). Recognizing patients with CID / HIES is of clinical importance due to a difference in prognosis and management. Define the clinical features that distinguish DOCK8 deficiency from other forms of HIES and CIDs; study the mutational spectrum of DOCK8 deficiency; and report on the frequency of specific clinical findings. Eighty-two patients from 60 families with CID and the phenotype of autosomal-recessive HIES with (64 patients) and without (18 patients) DOCK8 mutations were studied. Support vector machines were used to compare clinical data from 35 patients with DOCK8 deficiency with 10 AR-HIES patients without a DOCK8 mutation and 64 patients with STAT3 mutations. DOCK8-deficient patients had a median IgE of 5,201 IU, high eosinophil levels of usually at least 800/µl (92% of patients), and low levels of IgM (62%). About 20% of patients were lymphopenic, mainly due to low CD4+ and CD8+ T cells. Fewer than half of the patients tested produced normal specific antibody responses to recall antigens. Bacterial (84%), viral (78%), and fungal (70%) infections were frequently observed. Skin abscesses (60%) and allergies (73%) were common clinical problems. In contrast to STAT3 deficiency, there were few pneumatoceles, bone fractures, and teething problems. Mortality was high (34%). A combination of five clinical features was helpful in distinguishing patients with DOCK8 mutations from those with STAT3 mutations. DOCK8 deficiency is likely in patients with severe viral infections, allergies, and/or low IgM levels, who have a diagnosis of HIES plus hypereosinophilia and upper respiratory tract infections in the absence of parenchymal lung abnormalities, retained primary teeth, and minimal trauma fractures.
