Concurrent herpetic hypertensive anterior uveitis and cytomegalovirus retinitis in a non-HIV patient with melanoma differentiation-associated gene-5 dermatomyositis: intravenous immunoglobulin comes to the rescue. (PubMed, Reumatismo)
After the diagnosis of MDA-5 DM, she was treated with glucocorticoids (GC), followed by rituximab and triple therapy (cyclosporin, cyclophosphamide, and GC); however, she did not improve and multiple adverse effects occurred. The patient then started tofacitinib (TOF) and improved...TOF was stopped, and the patient started oral acyclovir and intravenous and intravitreal ganciclovir, which was later changed to maintenance therapy with oral valganciclovir. Cyclical intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) administration was started, resulting in an overall improvement in disease activity associated with MDA-5 DM. This case underscores the uncommon link between CMV retinitis in a non-HIV patient and HSV anterior uveitis in a patient undergoing immunosuppressive therapy and the challenge of treating MDA-5 DM with IVIG, which led to favorable results.

Aplastic anaemia with small paroxysmal nocturnal haemoglobinuria clones developing during osimertinib therapy for non-small cell lung cancer. (PubMed, Leuk Res Rep)
We diagnosed the patient with moderately severe AA and observed hematopoietic recovery following treatment with anabolic steroids and eltrombopag...Cyclosporine and romiplostim treatment were effective, allowing for outpatient management. In the two cases described herein, a small number of PNH-phenotype cells were confirmed. The clinical importance of the small PNH-phenotype populations and the mechanism underlying AA during OSIM therapy remain unclear and warrant further investigation.

Application of Trichoscopy and Novel Non-Invasive Imaging Techniques in the Diagnosis and Management of Patients with Scalp Psoriasis. (PubMed, Psoriasis (Auckl))
Topical therapies (glucocorticosteroids, a betamethasone-calcipotriol combination or calcineurin inhibitors) remain the first-line therapy for mild to moderate cases. Patients with severe scalp psoriasis and those who do not respond to topical treatment are candidates for systemic therapy, including targeted therapy (interleukin-17 inhibitors, interleukin-23 inhibitors, tumor necrosis alpha inhibitors) or classic treatment (methotrexate, cyclosporine) Recent studies have demonstrated promising outcomes with novel treatments including Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors and other new small molecules. This review provides updated information focused on diagnostic methods and targeted treatment of scalp psoriasis with relevance to clinical management of patients.

Severe aplastic anemia concurrent with lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma/Waldenström's macroglobulinemia: A case report. (PubMed, Intern Med)
Treatment prioritized AA with cyclosporine and eltrombopag. Subsequently, the LPL/WM was treated with rituximab monotherapy...Although AA is a diagnosis of exclusion, its coexistence with lymphoma is rare. This case highlights the diagnostic and therapeutic complexity of AA and LPL/WM overlap and suggests that prioritizing the treatment of AA may lead to better outcomes.

Sustained Drug-Drug Interaction Between Cyclosporine and Apalutamide in a Patient With Metastatic Hormone-Sensitive Prostate Cancer: A Case Report and Evaluation of CYP3A4 Induction via Pregnane X Receptor Activation by Apalutamide. (PubMed, Case Rep Oncol Med)
A 75-year-old man with mHSPC was treated with Apa and leuprorelin. Apa induced CYP3A4 via the PXR pathway, leading to a sustained DDI with CsA. Careful monitoring is necessary when Apa is coadministered with CYP3A4 substrates.

Primary Cutaneous B-Cell Lymphoma Imitating Pyoderma Gangrenosum: A Rare and Complex Diagnostic Challenge. (PubMed, J Clin Med)
An 85-year-old male presented with multiple rapidly progressive, painful, ulcerative lesions, initially misdiagnosed as PG and treated with oral cyclosporine with no clinical response... The case documents an exceptionally rare cutaneous presentation of A-DLBCL, expanding the extremely limited literature on this enigmatic entity. Furthermore, it underscores the fundamental role of early skin biopsy in the differential diagnosis of non-specific ulcerative lesions, which is critical for ensuring appropriate treatment administration within the therapeutic window in cases of malignancy.
