Successful Treatment of Upadacitinib in Prurigo Nodularis: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.
Background: Prurigo nodularis (PN), while rare, presents significant clinical challenges due to its diverse pathogenesis and presentation. Effective therapy recommendations for PN remain limited. Upadacitinib, an oral highly selective type 1 Janus-associated kinase (JAK, Intracellular tyrosine kinases that phosphorylate cytokine receptors). Inhibitor plays an excellent role in alleviating itching in atopic dermatitis (AD). This is a report on the treatment of PN with upadacitinib, which offers a new option for refractory PN.
Case presentation: We share our successful treatment experience of upadacitinib on a 43-year-old female patient with refractory PN failing to conventional therapies. She showed significant improvement at the follow-up visits and no obvious adverse effects happened. We also reviewed published case reports of PN patients and PN-related review researches and made a comprehensive discussion of the potential mechanism of JAK1 inhibitors in treating PN.
Conclusion: Upadacitinib may be a safe and potent alternative for patients with refractory PN.
