OBJECTIVE
Nilotinib, a recently approved multitargeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor targeting the BCR-Abl translocation involved in chronic myelogenous leukemia, reportedly produces alopecia according to the package insert, but clinical and histologic descriptions of the alopecia are lacking.
METHODS
A
BACKGROUND
There is strong evidence to suggest that alopecia areata (AA) is a tissue-specific, T cell-mediated autoimmune disease, which is usually characterized by patchy areas of hair loss on the scalp. Tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) is a known B-cell autoantigen in patients with autoimmune
Alopecia areata is a condition involving hair loss from certain or all areas of the body. It has been considered as an immune-mediated disease, characterized by the infiltration of CD4+ and CD8+ lymphocytes in the hair follicles.The study aimed to assess BACKGROUND
We previously detected antibodies against tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) in 23% of patients with nonsegmental vitiligo and in 19% of patients with alopecia areata (AA).
OBJECTIVE
To identify TH epitopes recognized by TH antibodies in patients with vitiligo and AA.
METHODS
Recombinant plasmids
Alopecia areata (AA) is hypothesized to be an organ-specific autoimmune disease mediated by T cells to the hair follicles. Despite the fact that most cases of AA are sporadic, there is an accumulation of evidence that AA is a complex multigenetic trait with components of inherited predisposition. In
OBJECTIVE
This report describes the 2016 consensus of the Taiwanese Dermatological Association (TDA) regarding the definition, classification, diagnosis, prevention, and management of skin toxicities resulting from treatment with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors
BACKGROUND
Dermatological toxicities associated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are commonly graded using the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE). A new tool has been proposed by the Multinational Association for Supportive Care in Cancer
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
Imatinib mesylate selectively inhibits bcr/abl and other non-specific tyrosine kinases, such as c-kit and platelet derived growth factor (PDGF) receptor and successfully used to treat chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML). In most cases, the drug is well tolerated: however, side effects can be seen. Hair
OBJECTIVE
We studied the safety and tolerability of telatinib, an orally available, small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor of the vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR-2/VEGFR-3), platelet-derived growth factor receptor beta, and c-Kit in combination with capecitabine and
Several tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are now approved for the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia in chronic phase. The efficacy of these drugs has been repeatedly demonstrated, as has their tolerability in most patients. However, late and chronic toxicities become an important issue for many
Background: Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease is an autosomal-dominant hereditary cancer syndrome. Currently, studies on tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy for VHL disease are scarce. In this study, we retrospectively evaluated the efficacy and safety of four TKIs in patients with VHL
BACKGROUND
Most patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) require systemic chemotherapy. Chemotherapy plus multitargeted antiangiogenic tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI; e.g., sorafenib, sunitinib, cediranib, vandetanib, BIBF 1120, pazopanib, axitinib) has recently been evaluated in
BACKGROUND
The functional R620W (c.1858C>T) variant of the protein tyrosine phosphatase nonreceptor 22 gene (PTPN22) has been associated with a variety of autoimmune disorders. A recent study has suggested that R620W also contributes to the severe form of alopecia areata (AA).
OBJECTIVE
We sought to
BACKGROUND
Sunitinib is a multiple receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) used for the treatment of renal cell carcinoma (RCC). It increases the median survival considerably with minimum side effects. Alopecia is one of the rare side effects. Metastasis to the ovary is also rare. We report a case
