Olmutinib-induced palmoplantar keratoderma

Abstract

olmutinib is a third-generation epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI) for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), especially for those harboring T790M mutations, the most common reason for other EGFR-TKI resistance. We describe three patients who developed acquired palmoplantar keratoderma (PPK) after taking olmutinib, an adverse event which has not been reported in previous generations of EGFR-TKIs.
