Impact of Treatment with Ustekinumab on Severe Infections in a Patient with Uncontrolled Psoriasis and Late-Onset Combined Primary Immunodeficiency: Case Report.

A 35-year-old man with a late-onset combined immunodeficiency (LOCID) variant of common variable immunodeficiency, severe plaque psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, and Crohn's disease was attended in the Regional Hospital of Presidente Prudente and HC-FMUSP, São Paulo, Brazil. Anti-IL-12/IL-23 (ustekinumab) monoclonal antibody was prescribed due to the failure of other treatments (phototherapy, oral acitretin) for psoriasis and a Psoriasis Area Severity Index >10. We evaluated the impact of treatment with ustekinumab on severe infectious diseases in a patient with uncontrolled psoriasis and LOCID followed for 8 years.
