Successful tocilizumab treatment in a patient with adult-onset Still's disease complicated by chronic active hepatitis B and amyloid A amyloidosis.
Modern Rheumatology 2011 April
We report successful tocilizumab (TCZ) use in a patient with adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD) complicated by chronic hepatitis B (CHB) and AA amyloidosis (AAA). Treatments with corticosteroid and various types of immunosuppressants were unsuccessful. Aggravation of CHB ensued, and entecavir was started. Normalisation of liver function and hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA were confirmed. TCZ was then started. His arthritis and AAA improved dramatically. TCZ is an excellent treatment for refractory AOSD and is feasible in an HBV-infected patient.
