For MDA5-DM patients with cancer, particularly in paraneoplastic settings, the primary treatment strategy often targets the malignancy first. However, surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy carry significant risks of exacerbating ILD, especially in patients with respiratory failure. Despite improved prognosis with initial immunosuppressive combination therapy, some cases of MDA5-DM with RP-ILD remain refractory to treatment.

Endocrine therapy and immunosuppressive therapy were administered, but the disease remained refractory. Tofacitinib, combined with plasma exchange, improved her ILD, allowing for bilateral mastectomy. One year later, MDA5 antibody titers became negative, and glucocorticoids were discontinued after two years. Three years later, neither MDA5-DM nor breast cancer has recurred.
