Everolimus is used as an immunosuppressant in renal allograft transplant rejection and in metastatic breast cancer treatment. One side effect of everolimus is stomatitis, referred to as mammalian target of rapamycin inhibitor-associated stomatitis. This side effect can affect treatment course and contribute to discontinuation of therapy or dose reduction, previously reported in the treatment of metastatic breast cancer. Here, we present a case of everolimus-associated stomatitis with a novel management method with intralesional triamcinolone that allows for continuous course of everolimus.
依维莫司被用作肾移植排斥反应的免疫抑制剂以及转移性乳腺癌的治疗药物。依维莫司的一个副作用是口腔炎,称为雷帕霉素抑制剂相关口腔炎。这种副作用会影响治疗进程,并导致治疗中断或剂量减少,此前在转移性乳腺癌治疗中已有报道。在此,我们报告一例依维莫司相关性口腔炎病例,采用病灶内注射曲安奈德的新管理方法,使依维莫司能够持续使用。
