Secukinumab is an inhibitor of interleukin IL-17A, and is mainly used in the treatment of psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis. Although rarely, this drug may induce paradoxical reactions, such as cutaneous vasculitis. Worldwide, only four previous cases of vasculitis induced by secukinumab have been reported. We herein report the first case described in Brazil of cutaneous vasculitis due to secukinumab in a patient with peripheral spondyloarthritis who demonstrated good resolution after withdrawal of the drug and initiation of etanercept. Clinicians should be aware of this rare but potentially serious adverse effect of secukinumab.
Treatment with biologics can cause vasculitis.The vasculitis may be independent of class of the biologic.Only five cases of vasculitis induced by secukinumab have been reported.
司库奇尤单抗是白细胞介素IL-17A的抑制剂,主要用于治疗银屑病、银屑病关节炎和强直性脊柱炎。尽管这种情况很少见,但该药物可能会引发反常反应,如皮肤血管炎。在全球范围内,之前仅报告过4例由司库奇尤单抗诱发的血管炎病例。我们在此报告巴西首例因司库奇尤单抗导致皮肤血管炎的病例,该患者患有外周型脊柱关节炎,在停用该药物并开始使用依那西普后病情得到明显缓解。临床医生应意识到司库奇尤单抗这种罕见但可能严重的不良反应。
生物制剂治疗可导致血管炎。血管炎可能与生物制剂的类别无关。仅报告过5例由司库奇尤单抗诱发的血管炎病例。
