Improvement in Gemcitabine-Induced Thrombotic Microangiopathy with Rituximab in a Patient with Ovarian Cancer: Mechanistic Considerations
Gemcitabine is a potent and widely used anticancer drug. We report a case of gemcitabine-induced thrombotic microangiopathy (GCI-TMA), a known but not widely recognized complication of gemcitabine use, and our experience of treating GCI-TMA with rituximab. A 74-year-old woman was referred to our clinic for an evaluation of worsening renal function. She has recently been treated for ovarian canc...
متن کاملCancer-associated thrombotic microangiopathy
Cancer-associated thrombotic microangiopathy refers to a group of disorders characterised by microvascular thrombosis, thrombocytopenia, and ischaemic end-organ damage. Haemolytic uraemic syndrome and thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura are the two major subtypes. It can be a manifestation of the malignancy itself or a complication of its therapy. The addition of several new drugs to the therap...
متن کاملHeparin-induced thrombocytopenia associated with thrombotic microangiopathy.
Some cases of thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) are refractory to plasma exchange therapy (PE) with persistence or recurrence of thrombocytopenia. We report two patients suffering from TMA of different aetiologies (associated with disseminated malignancy, typical haemolytic uraemic syndrome) with recurrent or persistent thrombocytopenia despite adequate therapy including PE. Since both patients ...
متن کاملThrombotic microangiopathy with targeted cancer agents.
Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) and hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) are clinically similar disorders characterized by microvascular thrombosis, hemolysis, thrombocytopenia, and end-organ damage. Although they may present with overlapping symptoms, multiple etiologies have been proposed for these thrombotic microangiopathies (TMA). Chemotherapy-induced TMA, which has been described wit...
متن کاملQuinine Induced Thrombotic Microangiopathy (TMA)
Quinine is the most common cause of Drug induced thrombotic microangiopathy (DITMA), being the offending drug in 33% of cases. We present a case of DITMA after only a single dose of quinine with no previous history of quinine exposure treated successfully with plasma exchange (PEX), oral corticosteroid followed by mycophenolatemofetil (MMF). The diagnosis was made by the close temporal relation...
