New therapeutic solutions have emerged in the last few decades with the growth and expansion of the field of cancer research. Amongst these new agents, immunotherapy has been prominent, particularly regarding the treatment of hematologic malignancies. One of the most worrisome complications of immunotherapy is cytokine release syndrome (CRS), which represents a supraphysiologic response resulting in excessive release of cytokines and a wide range of systemic manifestations. In this case report, we present a case of cytokine release syndrome following blinatumomab therapy despite premedication with dexamethasone.
在过去几十年里,随着癌症研究领域的发展和扩展,出现了新的治疗方案。在这些新药物中,免疫疗法尤为突出,特别是在血液系统恶性肿瘤的治疗方面。免疫疗法最令人担忧的并发症之一是细胞因子释放综合征(CRS),它代表一种超生理反应,导致细胞因子过度释放和一系列全身表现。在本病例报告中,我们呈现了一例尽管在使用贝林妥欧单抗治疗前使用了地塞米松预处理,但仍发生细胞因子释放综合征的病例。
