Combined therapy with IL-1 and JAK inhibitors in a patient with the NLRP1 gene mutation and a complex inflammatory phenotype.

ABSTRACT

A patient presented with overlapping clinical and laboratory features of 2 rare autoinflammatory diseases, NLRP1-associated autoinflammation with arthritis and dyskeratosis and familial multiple self-healing palmoplantar carcinoma. Her severe inflammatory attack was treated with the IL-1 receptor-α inhibitor anakinra along with the Janus kinase inhibitor ruxolitinib. Three years into the treatment, the patient's inflammatory symptoms are completely in remission.
