Abstract

Several studies have described increased risk ratios of certain types of malignancies in patients with severe psoriasis. Among these, the lymphoproliferative disorders, including non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, cutaneous T-cell lymphoma and non-melanoma skin cancer, have been described most frequently. In addition to traditional cancer risk factors, some psoriasis treatments may also be implicated as potential carcinogens. The aim of this study was to perform a review of current literature on the association between psoriasis, the therapies against this disease and skin cancer, focusing on both epidemiology and the potential mechanism involved. Some psoriasis treatments, such as psoralen and ultraviolet A (PUVA) therapy and cyclosporine, have been associated with increased risk of skin cancer. Variable data have been reported for anti-tumour necrosis factor (TNF) drugs, whereas other class of biologics, like anti-IL17 and IL23, as well as ustekinumab, seem not to be related to skin cancer risk, such as the case of currently available small molecules.

牛皮癣治疗对皮肤癌风险的影响：叙述性综述。

有几项研究表明，严重银屑病患者罹患某些类型恶性肿瘤的风险比率增加。其中，淋巴组织增生性疾病，包括非霍奇金淋巴瘤、皮肤 T 细胞淋巴瘤和非黑色素瘤皮肤癌的描述最为常见。除了传统的癌症风险因素外，一些银屑病治疗方法也可能是潜在的致癌物质。本研究的目的是对目前有关银屑病、银屑病疗法和皮肤癌之间关系的文献进行综述，重点关注流行病学和潜在的相关机制。一些银屑病治疗方法，如补骨脂素和紫外线 A（PUVA）疗法和环孢素，与皮肤癌风险增加有关。抗肿瘤坏死因子（TNF）药物的数据不一，而其他生物制剂，如抗IL17和IL23，以及乌司替尼（ustekinumab），似乎与皮肤癌风险无关，如目前可用的小分子药物。

期刊介绍： Advances in Therapy is an international, peer reviewed, rapid-publication (peer review in 2 weeks, published 3–4 weeks from acceptance) journal dedicated to the publication of high-quality clinical (all phases), observational, real-world, and health outcomes research around the discovery, development, and use of therapeutics and interventions (including devices) across all therapeutic areas. Studies relating to diagnostics and diagnosis, pharmacoeconomics, public health, epidemiology, quality of life, and patient care, management, and education are also encouraged. The journal is of interest to a broad audience of healthcare professionals and publishes original research, reviews, communications and letters. The journal is read by a global audience and receives submissions from all over the world. Advances in Therapy will consider all scientifically sound research be it positive, confirmatory or negative data. Submissions are welcomed whether they relate to an international and/or a country-specific audience, something that is crucially important when researchers are trying to target more specific patient populations. This inclusive approach allows the journal to assist in the dissemination of all scientifically and ethically sound research.
