Ribociclib is an inhibitor of cyclin-dependent kinases 4 and 6 (CDK 4/6) that is used in combination with an aromatase inhibitor in the first-line setting for advanced or metastatic hormone receptor positive and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative breast cancer. We report two cases of drug-induced vitiligo-like depigmentation (DI-VLD) associated with ribociclib. The awareness of this side effect is important given the increasing use of this drug and others with a similar mechanism of action.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
