Overview

Prognosis is generally good and symptoms usually resolve within 1-2 weeks after stopping the causative chemotherapeutic agent. If left untreated, PPE can progress rapidly. PPE is not life-threatening, but it can be very debilitating and impair quality of life.

Natural History, Complications, and Prognosis

Natural History

  • The symptoms of PPE usually develop 1–21 days after higher-dose pulse therapies and up to 2-10 months after continuous low-dose therapies.
  • PPE appears to be dose-dependent.
  • Both peak drug concentration and total cumulative dose determine its occurrence since both bolus infusions and continuous low-dose administration can cause a dose-dependent drug reaction [1] [2][3] [4]
  • In addition, combined administration of two chemotherapeutic drug which both can cause PPE usually results in an increase in the frequency and severity of PPE.
