Erlotinib is a small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). Erlotinib has been used primarily to treat non-small cell lung cancer. In addition to its role in tumor cells, EGFR is also an important regulator of growth and differentiation in the skin and hair. Therefore, EGFR-TKIs have been associated with a number of cutaneous side effects including follicular acneiform eruptions, cutaneous xerosis, chronic paronychia, desquamation, seborrheic dermatitis, and hair texture changes. Herein, we report a rare case of a 61-year-old woman who was treated with erlotinib and experienced cicatricial alopecia.
厄洛替尼是一种表皮生长因子受体(EGFR)的小分子酪氨酸激酶抑制剂(TKI)。厄洛替尼主要用于治疗非小细胞肺癌。除了在肿瘤细胞中的作用外,EGFR也是皮肤和毛发生长及分化的重要调节因子。因此,EGFR-TKIs与多种皮肤副作用有关,包括毛囊性痤疮样皮疹、皮肤干燥、慢性甲沟炎、脱屑、脂溢性皮炎和发质改变。在此,我们报告一例罕见病例,一名61岁女性接受厄洛替尼治疗后出现瘢痕性脱发。
