摘要
利妥昔单抗是一种抗 CD20 嵌合鼠/人 mAb,主要用于治疗某些类型的淋巴增生性恶性肿瘤和自身免疫性疾病。虽然近年来它已被用于治疗血管炎,但它很少引发严重的皮肤血管反应,如白细胞凝集性血管炎(LCV)。医生应注意这种需要停用利妥昔单抗的罕见不良反应,它可能发生在利妥昔单抗治疗后数天甚至数周。在此,我们报告了一例接受每周利妥昔单抗和局部放疗治疗的低级别眼眶 B 细胞淋巴瘤患者的 LCV 病例。在我们的病例中,停用利妥昔单抗并开始口服甲基强的松龙治疗足以使 LCV 完全消退。
Rituximab-induced leukocytoclastic vasculitis in a patient with low-grade orbital B-cell lymphoma: a case report.
Rituximab is an anti-CD20 chimeric murine/human mAb mainly used to treat certain types of lymphoproliferative malignancies and autoimmune diseases. Although it has been used in the treatment of vasculitis in recent years, it rarely triggers severe vascular skin reactions such as leukocytoclastic vasculitis (LCV). Physicians should be aware of this rare adverse event that requires discontinuation of rituximab, which can occur days or even weeks after rituximab treatment. Here, we report a case of LCV observed in a patient with low-grade orbital B-cell lymphoma treated with weekly rituximab and local radiotherapy. In our case, discontinuation of rituximab and initiation of oral methylprednisolone therapy were sufficient to achieve complete resolution of the LCV.
期刊介绍:
Anti-Cancer Drugs reports both clinical and experimental results related to anti-cancer drugs, and welcomes contributions on anti-cancer drug design, drug delivery, pharmacology, hormonal and biological modalities and chemotherapy evaluation. An internationally refereed journal devoted to the fast publication of innovative investigations on therapeutic agents against cancer, Anti-Cancer Drugs aims to stimulate and report research on both toxic and non-toxic anti-cancer agents. Consequently, the scope on the journal will cover both conventional cytotoxic chemotherapy and hormonal or biological response modalities such as interleukins and immunotherapy. Submitted articles undergo a preliminary review by the editor. Some articles may be returned to authors without further consideration. Those being considered for publication will undergo further assessment and peer-review by the editors and those invited to do so from a reviewer pool.
