摘要
约有 25% 的慢性自发性荨麻疹(CSU)患者对一线疗法难治,这使这些病例的治疗面临挑战。由于奥马珠单抗对免疫球蛋白 E 水平升高的患者更有效,因此荨麻疹治疗阶梯中的选择有限;此外,成本和用药可行性也是限制因素。与剂量相关的副作用往往限制了环孢素的疗效。68岁的患者患有难治性CSU已有12年之久,我们为他开始使用托法替尼,观察到他的症状和体征在2周内迅速得到控制,并在超过9个月的时间里得到了良好的长期控制,其中最后6个月为单药治疗。
About 25% of patients suffering from chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) are refractory to first-line therapy, making treatment challenging in these cases. There are limited options in the treatment ladder for urticaria as omalizumab is more effective in patients with raised immunoglobulin E levels; also, cost and feasibility of administration are limiting factors. Dose-related side effects often limit cyclosporine’s greater efficacy. We started tofacitinib for our 68-year-old patient who had been suffering from refractory CSU for the past 12 years and observed quick control of signs and symptoms starting within 2 weeks and good long-term control for over 9 months of which last 6 months were monotherapy.
