Gefitinib-induced interstitial lung disease-addition of intravenous cyclophosphamide to corticosteroids is a valuable treatment option: A case report
Medical Oncology, 08/21/09
Goto Y et al. – In order to allow reduction of the daily steroid dose, the patient was started on intravenous cyclophosphamide (500 mg/day). This additional treatment allowed the daily dose of oral prednisolone to be reduced to 15 mg/day. Thus, it is considered that intravenous cyclophosphamide may be a valid treatment option for gefitinib–induced lung injury.
