Ustekinumab-induced autoimmune hepatitis: about a case report

Abstract: Ustekinumab is a fully human monoclonal antibody that binds to interleukin (IL)-12/23. Ustekinumab-related liver injury (UST) is rare. There is limited data available on the potential for ustekinumab-liver interaction. We report the case of a patient from our institution followed for colitis ulcerative who developed autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) during treatment with ustekinumab. The diagnosis of autoimmune hepatitis was retained on the simplified criteria for autoimmune hepatitis. Therapeutic management consiste… Show more

“…Ustekinumab was described as safe from a hepatic perspective according to phase III and IV studies and PHOENIX I and II studies. To date, rare cases of autoimmune hepatitis induced by this drug have been detected, but the mechanisms by which Ustekinumab causes this type of adverse effect are not yet known [ 78 ].…”

“…[42] In another case, ustekinumab was suspected to have induced autoimmune-like hepatitis. [43] However, the patient had a relapse of autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) after normalization of liver tests and cessation of vedolizumab treatment. Thus, the relationship between the use vedolizumab and the development of AIH is unclear and might be a coincidence.…”

“…The drug was marketed in 2009 and has since then been extensively used in the treatment of IBD and psoriasis. Despite this, to our best knowledge, only 2 cases of DILI were described in the literature 42,43 . A patient developed hepatocellular injury without jaundice after the first dose of ustekinumab for the treatment of psoriasis 42 .…”
