Abstract
Drug-induced interstitial lung disease (DI-ILD) is a significant complication in patients undergoing treatment with certain anti-cancer therapies, with incidence rates rising, particularly with newer drugs such as trastuzumab-deruxtecan, which may impact their safe and effective use. Although the exact pathophysiological mechanisms remain unknown, and different drugs may induce lung damage through different pathways, the most recognized mechanisms are cytotoxic- and immune-mediated effects. Multidisciplinary teams play a crucial role in the diagnosis, management, and prevention of DI-ILD. Given the wide variability in the onset of DI-ILD, which may occur within the first few days of treatment or months after, patient education and clinician training are essential for early detection and improved outcomes. Moreover, the diagnostic confirmation requires the exclusion of alternative causes through clinical, imaging and bronchoscopy evaluation. Treatment strategies largely depend on the grade of severity of the clinical manifestations of DI-ILD, ranging from interruption or discontinuation of the offending drug to corticosteroid therapy and hospitalization for appropriate monitoring. Nonetheless, further research is needed to better understand the impact of emerging anti-cancer drugs on DI-ILD and to establish standardized management protocols.
期刊介绍:
Clinical Drug Investigation provides rapid publication of original research covering all phases of clinical drug development and therapeutic use of drugs. The Journal includes:
-Clinical trials, outcomes research, clinical pharmacoeconomic studies and pharmacoepidemiology studies with a strong link to optimum prescribing practice for a drug or group of drugs.
-Clinical pharmacodynamic and clinical pharmacokinetic studies with a strong link to clinical practice.
-Pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic studies in healthy volunteers in which significant implications for clinical prescribing are discussed.
-Studies focusing on the application of drug delivery technology in healthcare.
-Short communications and case study reports that meet the above criteria will also be considered.
Additional digital features (including animated abstracts, video abstracts, slide decks, audio slides, instructional videos, infographics, podcasts and animations) can be published with articles; these are designed to increase the visibility, readership and educational value of the journal’s content. In addition, articles published in Clinical Drug Investigation may be accompanied by plain language summaries to assist readers who have some knowledge, but non in-depth expertise in, the area to understand important medical advances.
