Popis: |
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a serious and potentially fatal adverse event in lung cancer therapy. Nanoparticle albumin-bound paclitaxel (nab-PTX) is a novel, solvent-free formulation of paclitaxel (PTX). Although the incidence of nab-PTX-induced ILD is not clear, it is generally considered that this formulation presents a similar risk of developing ILD as PTX. Here, we report 3 patients who developed severe ILD following treatment with nab-PTX. We draw attention to the risk of developing drug-induced ILD following nab-PTX treatment, and highlight that this novel formulation might therefore not be as safe as PTX with respect to the development of ILD. |
