Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Patients with mast cell disorders frequently experience symptoms from excessive mediator release like histamine and tryptase, ranging from mild flushing to severe anaphylactic responses. Hypersensitivity reactions (HRs) to drugs are a major cause of anaphylaxis in these patients, who often worry about triggering mast cell degranulation when taking medications. The aim of this review is to explore the complex interactions between mast cell disorders and drug HRs, focusing on the clinical challenges of managing these conditions effectively to enhance understanding and guide safer clinical practices. RECENT FINDINGS Among the drugs most commonly associated with hypersensitivity reactions in patients with mast cell disorders are non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, antibiotics, and perioperative agents. Recent studies have highlighted the role of Mas-related G-protein coupled receptor member X2 (MRGPRX2) - a receptor involved in non-immunoglobulin E mediated mast cell degranulation - in exacerbating HRs. Investigations reveal varied drug tolerance among patients, underscoring the need for individual risk assessments. SUMMARY Tailored diagnostic approaches are crucial for confirming drug allergies and assessing tolerance in patients with mastocytosis, preventing unnecessary medication avoidance and ensuring safety before acute situations arise.

Prevalence of hypersensitivity reactions in various forms of mastocytosis: A pilot study of 2485 adult patients with mastocytosis collected in the ECNM registry. Allergy 2024. [PMID: 38651829 DOI: 10.1111/all.16132] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/07/2023] [Revised: 03/20/2024] [Accepted: 03/25/2024] [Indexed: 04/25/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypersensitivity reactions (HR) are common in mastocytosis. However, little is known about triggers and risk factors. The registry of the European Competence Network on Mastocytosis (ECNM) enables reliable studies in a larger cohort of mastocytosis patients. We assessed prevalence, triggers and risk factors of HR in adults with mastocytosis in the ECNM registry. METHODS Data were collected in 27 ECNM centers. We analyzed potential triggers (Hymenoptera venoms, food, drug, inhalant and others) and risk factors at diagnosis and during follow-up. The study group consisted of 2485 adults with mastocytosis, 1379 women (55.5%) and 1106 men (44.5%). Median age was 48.2 years (range 18-91 years). RESULTS Nine hundred and forty eight patients (38.1%) reported one or more HR`. Most common triggers were Hymenoptera venoms in cutaneous mastocytosis (CM) and indolent systemic mastocytosis (ISM), whereas in advanced SM (advSM), most common elicitors were drugs, including nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents and penicillin. In multivariate analyses, tryptase level < 90 ng/mL, <15% infiltration by mast cells in bone marrow biopsy-sections, and diagnosis of ISM were identified as independent risk factors for HR. For drug-induced HR, prominent risk factors were advSM and high tryptase levels. New reactions were observed in 4.8% of all patients during 4 years follow-up. CONCLUSIONS HR are mainly triggered by Hymenoptera venoms in patients with CM and ISM and by drugs in patients with advSM. Tryptase levels <90 ng/mL, mast cell bone marrow infiltration <15%, and WHO category ISM are predictors of HR. New HR occur in 4.8% of all patients within 4 years.

IN PRACTICE 2024:S2213-2198(24)00333-7. [PMID: 38556047 DOI: 10.1016/j.jaip.2024.03.040] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/26/2023] [Revised: 03/06/2024] [Accepted: 03/25/2024] [Indexed: 04/02/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Anaphylaxis is a common feature of patients with mastocytosis, particularly with Hymenoptera venoms. Hence, it is hypothesized that patients with mastocytosis may have an increased susceptibility to developing drug-induced anaphylaxis (DIA). Patients and medical practitioners are therefore concerned when there is a need to use various drugs. However, this issue has not been systematically investigated. OBJECTIVE To investigate the prevalence and clinical characteristics of anaphylaxis to various types of drugs among patients with mastocytosis. METHODS A retrospective study was conducted among 470 consecutive patients (18 years and older) with confirmed clonal mast cell diseases recruited from 2 independent mastocytosis reference centers. All patients underwent a comprehensive, individualized allergy workup with evaluation of the (self)reported drug hypersensitivity. RESULTS The overall prevalence of DIA was 6.3%, accounting for one-third of the confirmed drug hypersensitivity reactions. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs were the most common elicitors of DIA (56%), followed by perioperative agents (23%) and antibiotics (13%). Anaphylactic reactions were severe in most cases, with 43% of patients experiencing hypotensive syncope. All drug-related hypersensitivity reactions occurred before mastocytosis was diagnosed. CONCLUSIONS The prevalence of DIA in mastocytosis tends to be higher than in the general population, but is overall low. However, its severity is more pronounced. Our results suggest that patients with mastocytosis with a previous reaction to drugs should undergo a thorough allergy workup. Well-tolerated drugs can be further used without specific precautions.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Provide an overview of the expanding landscape of mast cell (MC)-targeting treatments in mast cell activation syndromes (MCAS). RECENT FINDINGS Tyrosine-kinase inhibitors (TKIs) targeting wild-type and mutated KIT can efficiently induce MC depletion. Avapritinib and midostaurin can also temper IgE-mediated degranulation. Avapritinib has been recently approved by the FDA for the treatment of indolent systemic mastocytosis (ISM). Targeting activation pathways and inhibitory receptors is a promising therapeutic frontier. Recently, the anti Siglec-8 antibody lirentelimab showed promising results in ISM. MCAS is a heterogeneous disorder demanding a personalized therapeutic approach and, especially when presenting as anaphylaxis, has not been formally captured as outcome in prospective clinical trials with TKI. Long-term safety of TKI needs to be addressed. New drugs under investigation in diseases in which non-neoplastic MCs play a pivotal role can provide important inputs to identify new efficient and safe treatments for MCAS.

Abstract
Mastocytosis is a myeloproliferative neoplasm characterized by abnormal proliferation and activation of clonal mast cells typically bearing the KITD816V mutation. Symptoms manifest due to the release of bioactive mediators and the tissue infiltration by neoplastic mast cells. Mast cell activation symptoms include flushing, pruritus, urticaria, abdominal cramping, diarrhea, wheezing, neuropsychiatric symptoms, and anaphylaxis. Up to 50% of patients with mastocytosis report a history of provoked and unprovoked anaphylaxis, with Hymenoptera venom and drugs the most common culprits. NSAIDs, antibiotics, vaccines, perioperative medications, and radiocontrast media are often empirically avoided without evidence of reactions, depriving patients of needed medications and placing them at risk for unfavorable outcomes. The purpose of this review is to highlight the most common agents responsible for adverse drug reactions in patients with mastocytosis, with a review of current epidemiology, diagnosis, and management of drug hypersensitivity and Hymenoptera venom allergy.

Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug-induced anaphylaxis infrequent in 388 patients with mastocytosis: A two-center retrospective cohort study. FRONTIERS IN ALLERGY 2022; 3:1071807. [PMID: 36545345 PMCID: PMC9760711 DOI: 10.3389/falgy.2022.1071807] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/16/2022] [Accepted: 11/14/2022] [Indexed: 12/08/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Anaphylaxis is a well-known feature of mastocytosis, particularly in relation to hymenoptera venom stings. It is therefore hypothesized that mastocytosis patients may also be predisposed to severe hypersensitivity reactions to certain medications including non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). For this reason, these patients are usually discouraged from using these drugs. The current study aimed to determine the prevalence and evaluate the severity of NSAID-related hypersensitivity reactions among patients with mastocytosis. Methods A retrospective study was conducted among a total of 388 (≥18 years old) consecutive patients from two independent European mastocytosis centers, in Sweden and Italy. Patients underwent a thorough allergy work-up where self-reported NSAID-hypersensitivity reactions were re-evaluated by an allergist in the first cohort (202 patients) and results were validated in the second cohort (186 patients). Results Overall frequency of NSAID-hypersensitivity was 11.3% in the total study cohort. Most patients reacted with cutaneous symptoms (89%), whereas severe hypersensitivity reactions were infrequent with only 11 patients (2.8%) experiencing anaphylaxis. All NSAID-related hypersensitivity reactions had occurred before mastocytosis was diagnosed. There was no difference between the groups regarding gender, baseline tryptase levels or presence of atopy, asthma/rhinitis. Conclusion Our study indicates an approximate 4-fold increased prevalence of NSAID hypersensitivity among mastocytosis patients compared to the general population. However, most NSAID reactions were limited to the skin as the prevalence of overall anaphylaxis was infrequent. Our results support that mastocytosis patients with a known tolerance to NSAIDs can continue using these medications without special precautions, whereas those with a prior reaction to NSAIDs should undergo thorough allergy work-up, including drug challenges.

Abstract
Quantitation of urinary metabolites of histamine, prostaglandin D2, and leukotriene E4 can fill the gap in our current efforts to improve diagnosis and management of symptomatic patients with systemic mastocytosis, and/or mast cell activation syndrome, In addition, patients symptomatic due to mast cell activation but who do not meet all the criteria for mast cell activation syndrome can have elevated baseline mediator metabolites. Serum tryptase levels have been the workhorse in diagnosing these disorders, but it has several drawbacks including the need to obtain acute and baseline samples, which require 2 visits to health care facilities and 2 venipunctures. Recently, increased baseline tryptase level has been reported in hereditary alpha tryptasemia, complicating diagnostic possibilities of an increased baseline tryptase level. Furthermore, no treatment can specifically be targeted at tryptase itself. In contrast, the finding of 1 or more elevated urinary levels of histamine, prostaglandin D2, and/or leukotriene E4 metabolites (1) greatly narrows diagnostic possibilities for causes of symptoms; (2) informs the practitioner what specific metabolic pathways are involved; and (3) targets the treatment in a specific, direct fashion. As a bonus, baseline spot/random urine samples can be obtained by the patients themselves and repeated at exactly the correct time when symptoms occur.

Abstract
Introduction: Systemic Mastocytosis comprises a group of neoplastic diseases characterized by clonal expansion and infiltration of mast cells into several organs. The diagnosis and treatment of this disease may be challenging for non-specialists. Objective: Make suggestions or recommendations in Systemic Mastocytosis based in a panel of Brazilian specialists. Method and results: An online expert panel with 18 multidisciplinary specialists was convened to propose recommendations on the diagnosis and treatment of Systemic Mastocytosis in Brazil. Recommendations were based on discussions of topics and multiple-choice questions and were graded using the Oxford Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine 2011 Levels of Evidence Chart. Conclusion: Twenty-two recommendations or suggestions were proposed based on a literature review and graded according to the findings.

Mastocytosis presenting with mast cell‐mediator release‐associated symptoms elicited by cyclo oxygenase inhibitors: prevalence, clinical, and laboratory features. Clin Transl Allergy 2022; 12:e12132. [PMID: 35344302 PMCID: PMC8967266 DOI: 10.1002/clt2.12132] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/07/2021] [Revised: 02/21/2022] [Accepted: 02/23/2022] [Indexed: 11/07/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are frequently avoided in mastocytosis, because of a potential increased risk for drug hypersensitivity reactions (DHRs) due to inhibition of cyclo‐oxygenase (COX), subsequent depletion of prostaglandin E2 and release of leukotrienes. Objectives Here, we aimed at determining the prevalence of mast cell (MC) mediator release symptoms triggered by NSAIDs in mastocytosis patients and the associated clinical and laboratory features of the disease. Methods Medical records from 418 adults to 223 pediatric mastocytosis patients were retrospectively reviewed. Patients were classified according to tolerance patterns to NSAIDs and other COX inhibitors (COXi) and compared for epidemiological, clinical and laboratory findings. Results Overall, 87% of adults and 91% of pediatric patients tolerated NSAIDs and other COXi. Among adult and pediatric patients presenting DHRs, 5% and 0% reacted to multiple NSAIDs, 4% and 0.7% were single reactors, and 3% and 8% were single reactors with known tolerance to paracetamol but unknown tolerance to other COXi, respectively. Among adults, hypersensitivity to ≥2 drugs was more frequent among females (p = 0.009), patients with prior history of anaphylaxis to triggers other than NSAIDs or other COXi and Hymenoptera venom (p = 0.009), presence of baseline flushing (p = 0.02), baseline serum tryptase ≥48 ng/ml (p = 0.005) and multilineage KIT mutation (p = 0.02). In contrast, tolerance to NSAIDs and other COXi was more frequent among males (p = 0.02), in patients with anaphylaxis caused by Hymenoptera venom (p = 0.02), among individuals who had skin lesions due to mastocytosis (p = 0.01), and in cases that had no baseline pruritus (p = 0.006). Based on these parameters, a score model was designed to stratify mastocytosis patients who have never received NSAIDs or other COXi apart from paracetamol, according to their risk of DHR. Conclusions Our results suggest that despite the frequency of MC mediator related symptoms elicited by NSAIDs and other COXi apart from paracetamol is increased among mastocytosis patients versus the general population, it is lower than previously estimated and associated with unique disease features. Patients that tolerated NSAIDs and other COXi following disease onset should keep using them. In turn, adults with unknown tolerance to such drugs and a positive score should be challenged with a preferential/selective COX‐2 inhibitor, while the remaining may be challenged with ibuprofen.

Abstract
Primary and secondary mast cell activation syndromes (MCAS) can occur in patients with mastocytosis. During the past few years our knowledge about the pathogenesis and disease-triggering mechanisms in MCAS and mastocytosis have increased substantially. Whereas mastocytosis is characterized by an accumulation of neoplastic (clonal) mast cells (MC) in various organ systems, MCAS is defined by a massive and systemic activation of these cells. Mast cells are crucial effector cells in allergic diseases, thus their elevated number and activation can cause severe anaphylactic reactions and MCAS in patients with mastocytosis. However, these cells may also degranulate spontaneously or degranulate in response to non-allergic triggers leading to clinical symptoms. In mastocytosis patients, such symptoms may lead to the diagnosis of a primary MCAS. The diagnosis of a concomitant allergy in mastocytosis patients is challenging. In these patients, a mixed form (primary and secondary) of MCAS may be diagnosed. These patients may also suffer from life-threatening anaphylactic reactions when exposed to allergens. In these cases, the possibility of severe side effects of in vivo provocations can sometimes also limit diagnostic evaluations. In the current article, we discuss the diagnosis and management of patients suffering from mastocytosis and concomitant MCAS, with special emphasis on novel diagnostic tests and management, including allergen microarrays, recombinant allergen analysis, basophil activation tests, optimal prophylaxis, and specific therapies.

Abstract
Drug hypersensitivity is one of the most frequent causes of anaphylaxis, particularly in adults and in hospitalized patients. Drug-induced anaphylaxis (DIA) is also associated with more severe outcomes than other anaphylaxis triggers, and drugs are responsible for the majority of deaths due to anaphylaxis. We here review the current knowledge on the incidence, prevalence, drugs involved, mortality, and mortality risk factors for DIA. The incidence of both anaphylaxis and DIA seems to be increasing worldwide. Antibiotics and analgesics are the most frequently reported triggers of DIA. However, the importance of other drug groups should be taken into account, especially in particular settings (e.g., peri-operative and oncology). The identification of risk factors, geographical variables, and drugs associated with higher risk for DIA may improve the outcomes of this entity.

Abstract
Chronic noninfectious diseases (cardiovascular, bronchopulmonary, oncological diseases and diabetes mellitus) are presently the most common cause of death worldwide, with cardiovascular diseases (CVD) being predominant. For this reason, the key goal of a physician is not only to treat but also to prevent diseases. Acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) is considered one of the most effective drugs for secondary prevention of CVD. However, the use of ASA for primary prevention is still debated. Results of many studies of ASA are inconsistent. Some studies have suggested that using ASA in patients aged 40-70 with a high 10-year risk of CVD and a low risk of bleeding may reduce the incidence of CVD. Administration of ASA to patients with a high or medium risk of CVD is also considered.

Abstract
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), the medications most commonly used for treating pain and inflammation, are the main triggers of drug hypersensitivity reactions. The latest classification of NSAIDs hypersensitivity by the European Academy of Allergy and Clinical Immunology (EAACI) differentiates between cross-hypersensitivity reactions (CRs), associated with COX-1 inhibition, and selective reactions, associated with immunological mechanisms. Three phenotypes fill into the first group: NSAIDs-exacerbated respiratory disease, NSAIDs-exacerbated cutaneous disease and NSAIDs-induced urticaria/angioedema. Two phenotypes fill into the second one: single-NSAID-induced urticaria/angioedema/anaphylaxis and single-NSAID-induced delayed reactions. Diagnosis of NSAIDs hypersensitivity is hampered by different factors, including the lack of validated in vitro biomarkers and the uselessness of skin tests. The advances achieved over recent years recommend a re-evaluation of the EAACI classification, as it does not consider other phenotypes such as blended reactions (coexistence of cutaneous and respiratory symptoms) or food-dependent NSAID-induced anaphylaxis. In addition, it does not regard the natural evolution of phenotypes and their potential interconversion, the development of tolerance over time or the role of atopy. Here, we address these topics. A state of the art on the underlying mechanisms and on the approaches for biomarkers discovery is also provided, including genetic studies and available information on transcriptomics and metabolomics.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Psychological symptoms appear to be frequent among patients with mastocytosis and can significantly affect patient quality of life. However, it remains unclear whether and to which extent this may be the case. OBJECTIVE To investigate he presence and type of psychological symptoms and quality of life in patients with mastocytosis. METHODS In this cross-sectional cohort study of adult patients with mastocytosis, all patients completed the 36-item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) and the 90-item Symptom Checklist (SCL-90). Results were compared with those of a healthy groups of patients with other diseases (chronic pain and cancer) and healthy populations. RESULTS Fifty patients were included in the study. Seventy percent had indolent systemic mastocytosis. Patients with mastocytosis scored significantly worse than a healthy norm group on the total SCL-90 and more specifically on the dimensions of depression, somatization, sleeping problems, and inadequacy of acting and thinking. Strikingly, patients with mastocytosis scored similarly to patients with cancer on the SF-36 subdomains of general health perception and vitality. However, no significant difference in the mental health subdomain of the SF-36 was found when compared with a healthy group. CONCLUSION In addition to the presence of psychological symptoms, the physical symptoms that are associated with mastocytosis also have a significant impact on the quality of life of patients with this disease. Therefore, correct treatment through symptom control and psychological counseling is necessary. TRIAL REGISTRATION EudraCT Identifier 2015-004604-37.

Abstract
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) hypersensitivity reactions (HSRs) are often nonimmunologically mediated reactions which present with immediate HSR type manifestations. These are mediated by cyclooxygenase inhibition resulting in shunting towards the excessive production of leukotrienes. Important disease associations include asthma, nasal polyposis, and chronic spontaneous urticaria, especially among adults. The European Network on Drug Allergy/Global Allergy and Asthma European Network 2013 classification of NSAID HSR comprises nonselective HSR i.e., NSAID exacerbated respiratory disease (NERD), NSAIDs exacerbated cutaneous disease (NECD), NSAIDs induced urticarial-angioedema (NIUA); and selective (allergic) HSR i.e., single NSAID induced urticaria/angioedema or anaphylaxis, NSAIDs-induced delayed HSR. Much of the literature on genetic associations with NSAID HSR originate from Korea and Japan; where genetic polymorphisms have been described in genes involved in arachidonic acid metabolism, basophil/mast cell/eosinophil activation, various inflammatory mediators/cytokines, and different HLA genotypes. The Asian phenotype for NSAID HSR appears to be predominantly NIUA with overlapping features in some adults and children. NECD also appears to be more common than NERD, although both are not common in the Asian paediatric population. Between adults and children, children seem to be more atopic, although over time when these children grow up, it is likely that the prevalence of atopic adults with NSAID HSR will increase. Low-dose aspirin desensitization has been shown to be effective in the treatment of coronary artery disease, especially following percutaneous coronary intervention.

Abstract
Background Patients with mastocytosis are at increased risk of anaphylaxis. The use of nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) is often discouraged because of this reason. However, the actual prevalence and severity of NSAID‐related hypersensitivity among patients with mastocytosis is unknown. Methods A double‐blind, placebo‐controlled acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) challenge up to a cumulative dose of 520 mg was performed among adult patients with mastocytosis. In addition, a retrospective search of the entire outpatient cohort was performed to obtain “real‐life” data on NSAID hypersensitivity. Results Fifty patients underwent an ASA challenge. Seventy percent had indolent systemic mastocytosis, 18% had mastocytosis in the skin, and 12% had advanced mastocytosis. The ASA challenge was positive in 1 patient who developed urticaria. The additional retrospective chart review revealed that 8 of 191 patients had a history of NSAID‐related hypersensitivity reaction(s), of whom 3 reported severe systemic reactions. All 8 patients had already experienced NSAID‐related hypersensitivity reactions before mastocytosis was diagnosed. Conclusions The frequency of ASA hypersensitivity was 2% in a prospective challenge study and 4.1% in a retrospective chart review of 191 patients with mastocytosis. NSAIDs can be administered safely to most patients with mastocytosis. Extra caution should be taken in patients with a history of hypersensitivity reactions to other drugs, or traditional risk factors for NSAID hypersensitivity.
