摘 要:BACKGROUND Both programmed cell death-1(PD-1)inhibitors and lenvatinib,which have a synergistic effect,are promising drugs for tumor *** is generally believed that combination therapy with a PD-1 inhibitor and lenvatinib is safe and ***,we report a case of toxic epidermal necrolysis(TEN),a grade 4 toxicity,after this combination *** SUMMARY A 39-year-old male presented with erythema,blisters and erosions on the face,neck,trunk and limbs 1 wk after receiving combination therapy with lenvatinib and toripalimab,a PD-1 *** skin injury covered more than 70%of the body surface *** was previously diagnosed with liver cancer with cervical vertebra ***,prominent necrotic keratinocytes,hyperkeratosis,liquefaction of basal cells and acantholytic bullae were observed in the *** vessels in the dermis were infiltrated by lymphocytes and *** immunofluorescence staining was ***,the diagnosis was confirmed to be TEN(associated with combination therapy with toripalimab and lenvatinib).Full-dose and long-term corticosteroids,high-dose intravenous immunoglobulin and targeted antibiotic drugs were *** rashes gradually faded;however,as expected,the tumor ***, sorafenib and regorafenib were given in succession, and the patient was still alive at the10-mo *** attention should be given to rashes that develop after combination therapy with PD-1inhibitors and lenvatinib. Large-dose and long-course glucocorticoids may be crucial for thetreatment of TEN associated with this combination treatment.
