Abstract
|
|
|
Skin-related toxicity is one of the most important adverse events from multi-target tyrosine kinase inhibitor (MTKI) to treat radioiodine refractory thyroid cancer. As hand foot skin reaction can limit quality of life and therapeutic effectiveness, it is essential to cope with a variety of severity of skin-related toxicity induced by MTKI. Herein, we will discuss two representative cases of skin-related toxicities which were managed by discontinuation/reduction of therapeutic doses of MTKI and were treated by proper medication in thyroid cancer patients with distant metastasis.
