Original Abstract of the Article :
OBJECTIVE: Tyrosine-kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are chemotherapeutic agents associated with increased thyroid-hormone requirements and altered deiodinase activity. We present the first case to link these findings to the TKI ibrutinib. METHODS: Serial thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), free-thyroxine (...See full text at original site

Ibrutinib and Thyroid-Hormone Requirements: A Case Study

This case study explores the potential impact of the tyrosine-kinase inhibitor (TKI) ibrutinib on thyroid hormone requirements. The study presents a case of a thyroidectomized woman who experienced increased thyroid hormone requirements after starting ibrutinib treatment. The study suggests that ibrutinib may induce type 3 deiodinase, an enzyme involved in thyroid hormone metabolism, leading to altered thyroid hormone levels and increased requirements.

Ibrutinib: A Shifting Oasis in the Desert of Thyroid Hormone Regulation

This case study takes us on a journey through the complex desert of thyroid hormone regulation. It showcases the potential impact of the TKI ibrutinib on thyroid hormone metabolism, highlighting the need for careful monitoring and adjustments in patients receiving this treatment. The case illustrates the delicate balance of thyroid hormones and the importance of understanding the nuances of drug interactions.

Navigating the Desert of Thyroid Disease

This study reminds us of the importance of consulting with a healthcare professional to manage any changes in thyroid hormone levels, particularly when taking medications that may interact with thyroid hormone metabolism. Monitoring thyroid hormone levels and making necessary adjustments can help ensure the best possible outcomes for patients.

Dr. Camel's Conclusion

This case study provides a valuable insight into the potential impact of ibrutinib on thyroid hormone regulation. It highlights the importance of careful monitoring and prompt adjustments to ensure the optimal balance of thyroid hormones in patients receiving this treatment.
