Özet
Ibrutinib is a Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitor used in the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Panitumumab, an mAb for epidermal growth factor receptor, is used in the treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC). We wanted to present our case where we used ibrutinib and panitumumab in combination in a patient with metachronous CLL and CRC. A 58-year-old male patient with a diagnosis of CLL was receiving ibrutinib treatment and primary rectal cancer was detected. FOLFOX + panitumumab were started when metastasis was detected in the lung after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy for rectal cancer. The patients used ibrutinib and panitumumab in combination. There was no cumulative or unexpected toxicity due to the combination of both antineoplastic agents. The most important point to be considered in the use of combined drugs is the evaluation of drug-drug interactions. Toxic effects of the combination of ibrutinib and cetuximab have been reported in a patient with metastatic CRC. We used ibrutinib together with panitumumab in our case and we did not encounter any cumulative or unexpected side effects during the treatment.
