Literature analysis of ocular adverse drug reactions related to dupilumab / 中国药房

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE To analyze the clinical manifestation and characteristics of ocular adverse drug reaction （ADR） related to dupilumab， so as to provide reference for clinically safe drug use. METHODS Retrieved from CNKI， Wanfang data， VIP and PubMed databases， the case reports about ocular ADR caused by dupilumab were collected， and then analyzed statistically in terms of gender， age， primary disease， drug use， occurrence time of ADR， main clinical manifestations， treatment or outcome， etc. RESULTS A total of 20 pieces of literature were selected， involving 46 patients， among which there were 29 males and 17 females. Mainly patients were under 60 years old. The results of the association evaluation was given as follows： 13 were “very likely” and 33 were “likely”. All patients were treated with dupilumab for atopic dermatitis （AD） without off-label medication. The occurrence time of ADR was 2 weeks to 2 years after administration， mainly within 6 months after medication. All patients received dupilumab monotherapy except that 3 patients with hypertension and 1 patient with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and human immunodeficiency virus received other drugs simultaneously. Twenty-eight patients had a history of allergic disease， and 11 patients had a history of eye disease. Ocular ADRs were mainly conjunctivitis and uveitis， and the clinical manifestations mainly included conjunctival congestion， swelling， eye secretions， etc. Ten patients developed severe ADR， including uveitis， severe conjunctivitis， and tear point stenosis； 45 patients were improved after symptomatic treatment. AD， serious initial symptoms of AD， allergic disease and underlying ocular diseases might be the high-risk factors of ocular ADR caused by dupilumab. CONCLUSIONS Whether the patient has the history of allergic diseases and basic eye diseases should be asked in detail before clinical use of dupilumab. When using the drug， attention should be paid to monitoring whether the patient has intraocular inflammation， be alert to the occurrence of new or serious ADR， and give timely symptomatic treatment to ensure the safety of drug use.
