Turgay Yagmur I, Guzelkucuk Z, Yarali N, Ozyoruk D, Toyran M, Civelek E, Ozbek NY, Dibek Misirlioglu E. Evaluation of hypersensitivity reactions to cancer chemotherapeutic agents in pediatric patients. Ann Allergy Asthma Immunol 2020; 124:350-356. [PMID: 31981613 DOI: 10.1016/j.anai.2020.01.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/31/2019] [Revised: 12/24/2019] [Accepted: 01/13/2020] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypersensitivity reactions (HSRs) to chemotherapeutic agents have been increasingly documented. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to investigate HSRs due to chemotherapeutics agents in childhood. METHODS From January 2007 to June 2019, the patients who were treated for neoplastic diseases in our hospital were evaluated. Patients who developed a HSR to a chemotherapeutic agent were included. RESULTS Fifty-seven patients with 65 reactions (60% anaphylaxis) were evaluated. Escherichia coli asparaginase was responsible for 38 (58.5%) of these 65 reactions. The other agents were polyethylene glycol (PEG)-asparaginase (n = 11), etoposide (n = 7), methotrexate (n = 4), carboplatin (n = 4), and procarbazine (n = 1). Of the 38 patients who had a reaction to E coli-asparaginase, 33 patients received alternative treatment (PEG-asparaginase or Erwinia asparaginase), 3 patients continued with desensitization, and 2 patients underwent bone marrow transplantation. Five patients who had an initial reaction to PEG-asparaginase continued their treatment with Erwinia asparaginase or E coli asparaginase uneventfully. Of 7 patients who had a reaction to etoposide (4 had anaphylaxis), 3 patients continued with desensitization, and 2 patients used the drug with premedication and prolonged infusion. Two patients had anaphylaxis with methotrexate. Treatment was continued with desensitization in 1 patient and methotrexate treatment was discontinued in the other patient. Of the 4 patients with carboplatin hypersensitivity, 2 had anaphylaxis. Desensitization was performed in 2 patients. One patient had procarbazine HSR, drug was given with premedication. CONCLUSION Among all chemotherapeutic agents reviewed in our study that caused HSRs, asparaginase was the most common culprit agent in children. Most of reactions are immediate type. Many of the patients can take their treatment by drug replacement or desensitization.

Abstract
Methotrexate is extensively used in the treatment of various malignancies and autoimmune conditions. Methotrexate is associated with several toxicities, while hypersensitivity reactions to methotrexate are unusual, but have been reported in adult cancer patients. Hereby, we detail the case of a child with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia who developed a hypersensitivity reaction to high-dose methotrexate infusion (HDMTX) during the fourth cycle of HDMTX. The child was rechallenged with another brand of methotrexate; she started complaining of itching on trunk within 5 min of infusion. Few studies have reported that desensitization has been helpful in children with hypersensitivity reactions allowing the continuation of HDMTX. However, it was decided to omit parenteral methotrexate for this child. Cranial radiotherapy was given for CNS prophylaxis. In conclusion, unexpected hypersensitivity with methotrexate should be kept in mind during the treatment especially with high-dose infusion.
