A Unique Dermatologic Adverse Event from Enfortumab Vedotin.

Abstract

Enfortumab vedotin (EV) is a novel chemotherapeutic agent used in the treatment of metastatic urothelial cancer. Although rashes are reported as a common adverse event from this therapy, a paucity of literature is available on dermatologic toxicities to EV, especially with respect to bullous dermatoses. This case report will review a unique bullous dermatosis in the setting of EV therapy, including the diagnostic workup and management. Because cutaneous adverse events to chemotherapy and immunotherapy are common and can often result in dose reduction and treatment withdrawal for cancer patients, awareness of these manifestations and understanding how to manage them is crucial to providing quality care to this patient population.
