The overall incidence of hypersensitivity to carboplatin ranges from 1% to 27% and that of hypersensitivity to carboplatin is between 5% and 20%. However, the actual incidence of cross-reactivity between platinum salts has not yet been known. In this paper, we reported a case of a 39-year-old man with advanced non-small cell lung cancer, who had cisplatin anaphylaxis after having had carboplatin hypersensitivity at the previous cycle. The anaphylactic reaction was managed successfully with adrenaline, corticosteroids, antihistamines, oxygen mask and isotonic fluid support. No further reactions were observed and after that he stopped the platinum regimen. This case illustrates that NSCLC patients may experience hypersensitive and cross-reactivity to both carboplatin and cisplatin. It is important to be aware of the possibility of anaphylaxis so that appropriate premedication or effective treatment can be promptly instituted.展开更多
