Abstract
Sorafenib is an orally administered active multikinase inhibitor for metastatic renal cell carcinoma that is now considered a standard agent. Skin toxicity, such as hand-foot skin reaction, is one of the frequent adverse effects of sorafenib. On the other hand, sorafenib-induced erythema multiforme is very rare, and Stevens-Johnson syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis induced by sorafenib have not been reported. We report the first case of Stevens-Johnson syndrome caused by sorafenib for metastatic renal cell carcinoma.Entities:
