Paolo Tarantino: Steroids are the mainstay for treating ADC-induced ILD
Paolo Tarantino shared a post on X by Sarah Sammons adding:
“Agree!
Steroids are the mainstay for treating ADC-induced ILD (but cause long-term toxicity)
Inhaled steroids are much better tolerated and provide benefit in RT-induced ILD + several other conditions (asthma, COVID)
Time to study them for preventing ADC-induced ILD!”
Quoting Sarah Sammons’s post below:
“We should try this either as primary or secondary prevention for T-Dxd pneumonitis…”
