This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of low-dose interleukin (IL-2) treatment for bullous pemphigoid (BP) caused by anti-programmed cell death protein 1/ligand 1 (PD-1/PD-L1) inhibitors.
Low-dose IL-2 treatment was standardized for BP. The Bullous Pemphigoid Disease Area Index (BPDAI), 5D-Itch Scale (5D-IS), and Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) were recorded before and after treatment, and hexachromatic lymphocytes, regulatory T cells (Treg cells), and cytokines were measured.
A significant decline in the BPDAI score, 5D-IS, and DLQI score was observed following treatment. The count of B-cells, CD4+ T-cells, CD8+ T-cells, Treg cells, and the levels of cytokines (IL-4, -8, and -10) were significantly downregulated in comparison to baseline measurements.
Low-dose IL-2 could be an effective therapeutic choice for treating BP caused by PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors.
本研究旨在评估低剂量白细胞介素(IL-2)治疗抗程序性细胞死亡蛋白1/配体1(PD-1/PD-L1)抑制剂所致大疱性类天疱疮(BP)的疗效。
对BP患者的低剂量IL-2治疗进行标准化。记录治疗前后的大疱性类天疱疮疾病面积指数(BPDAI)、5D瘙痒量表(5D-IS)和皮肤病生活质量指数(DLQI),并检测六染色淋巴细胞、调节性T细胞(Treg细胞)和细胞因子。
治疗后BPDAI评分、5D-IS和DLQI评分显著下降。与基线测量相比,B细胞、CD4+T细胞、CD8+T细胞、Treg细胞计数及细胞因子(IL-4、-8和-10)水平均显著下调。
低剂量IL-2可能是治疗PD-1/PD-L1抑制剂所致BP的有效治疗选择。
