Successful treatment of PD1-inhibitor induced psoriasiform dermatitis using IL-17 blockade without compromising immunotherapy efficacy.

This case prompted a literature review to further characterize the use of IL-17 inhibitors for psoriasiform dermatitis in the setting of ICI therapy. All six cases demonstrated improvement of psoriasiform dermatitis, with two cases showing partial response and four cases showing complete resolution. In three of the six cases, the patients exhibited clinical response to the primary malignancy after rechallenging with ICI, while remaining on an IL-17 inhibitor. Our case, in conjunction with the other reported cases, seems to suggest that IL-17 blockade can maintain a fine balance in this challenging clinical scenario by treating psoriasiform dermatitis without compromising the efficacy of immunotherapy.
