特瑞普利单抗治疗乳腺癌诱发噬血细胞性淋巴组织细胞增生症1例

Toripalimab-Induced Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis in a Patient with Breast Cancer: A Case Report

  • 摘要: 免疫检查点抑制剂(immune checkpoint inhibitors, ICIs)可诱发罕见但致命的噬血细胞性淋巴组织细胞增生症(hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis, HLH)。而乳腺癌相关ICI-HLH报道极少,特瑞普利单抗联合化疗诱发的病例尚未见记载。本文报告1例乳腺癌患者,于特瑞普利单抗联合化疗后13 d出现持续高热,检查符合HLH-2004诊断标准。经甲泼尼龙冲击治疗后症状迅速改善,后续联合小剂量依托泊苷巩固治疗,出院1个月后复查正常,提示特瑞普利单抗可诱发乳腺癌患者发生HLH,且激素单药初始治疗有效,为临床早期识别与处理此类严重免疫相关不良事件提供参考。

     

    Abstract: Immune checkpoint inhibitors can induce a rare but fatal complication known as hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis(HLH). However, reports of ICI-related HLH in breast cancer are extremely limited, and no cases induced by the combination of toripalimab with chemotherapy have been documented. This article reports a case of a breast cancer patient who developed persistent high fever 13 days after receiving toripalimab combined with chemotherapy. Diagnostic evaluations met the HLH-2004 diagnostic criteria. Following methylprednisolone pulse therapy, the patient's symptoms improved rapidly, with subsequent consolidation treatment involving low-dose etoposide. Follow-up examinations one month after discharge showed normal results. This case suggests that toripalimab may induce HLH in breast cancer patients and that initial treatment with glucocorticoids alone can be effective. It provides a reference for the early clinical identification and management of such severe immune-related adverse events.
