Abstract
Introduction. The modern anti-tumour preparations from the group of multikinase inhibitors exhibit the high clinical effectiveness. Courses of therapy with such medications are indispensable and vitally important for the treatment of the patients presenting with oncological pathology but, unfortunately, happen to give rise to the development of a toxic reaction in the form of рalmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia which not infrequently prevents the completion of the full-scale treatment. The determination of the adequate skin condition is an indispensable component of the combined treatment of the oncological patients. Materials and methods. The present study included 9 patients treated with various preparations from the group of multikinase inhibitors. All of them developed toxic cutaneous reactions in the form of grade II-III palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia which was corrected with the use of thioctic acid-based preparation at a daily dose of 600 mg given during 14 days in the combination with pharmaphoresis of the cream containing 0.1% of betamethasone valerate. Results. The use of the proposed therapeutic modality resulted in the reduction of the severity of the clinical manifestations of palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia, such as erythema, infiltration, desquamation, fissures, etc. Simultaneously, the treatment eliminated certain subjective symptoms including pruritus, pain, and paresthesia. Taken together, these effects significantly improved the patients’ condition and allowed the course of antitumour therapy to be totally completed. Conclusion. The patients presenting with palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia should be managed with the use of multikinase inhibitors in the combination with the oral administration of a thioctic acid-based preparation and local pharmaphoresis of the cream containing 0.1% of betamethasone valerate.
