Hair Repigmentation Induced by Nilotinib
A 51-year-old man with chronic myeloid leukemia visited the oncology clinic for routine follow-up. Treatment with nilotinib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, had been initiated 18 months earlier. During that time, the patient had noticed, much to his delight, the gradual repigmentation of his gray hair (Panel A, photo obtained approximately 1 year before the initiation of nilotinib) to its original color. During the same period, he had not started any other new medications and had used no hair-coloring products. On physical examination, his previously gray hair was noted to have become brown (Panel B). No other changes in his hair, skin, or mucosal pigmentation were observed. Molecular testing showed a deep molecular response. A diagnosis of medication-induced hair repigmentation due to the use of a tyrosine kinase inhibitor was made. Given the response of the leukemia to treatment with nilotinib, it was continued, and the patient’s hair remained brown.
Living with Lupus is often a battle not just against the illness itself, but also against the emotional weight of uncertainty, fatigue, and the toll of long-term medications. For one courageous woman, that battle began in 2013. Diagnosed after Lupus had already affected her joints and internal organs, she was quickly placed on medication that initially helped. But as time went on, her health declined again this time with more frequent flare-ups and increasingly difficult side effects. Like many others with chronic illness, she faced the crushing weight of hopelessness. Each day became harder than the last, and conventional treatments no longer offered the comfort they once did.
