چکیده

inhibition of BTK downregulates expression of myriad downstream signaling molecules, most prominently PLCγ2, some mutations in which seem to mediate ibrutinib resistance. Interestingly, a clinically similar eruption—a lymphohistiocytic infiltrate with eosinophils responsive to corticosteroids—has been described in patients with mutations in the PLCγ2 gene.6 In conclusion, treatment of lymphoid leukemiaswith the BTK inhibitor ibrutinib can lead todevelopment of a panniculitis, whichmay be induced by drug-induced immunemodulation. Previously uncharacterized, this painful rash typically occurs early during drug exposure and responds well to systemic corticosteroid use; however, low-dosemaintenance therapy may be necessary to prevent recurrence.
