Interleukin-2 immediate type hypersensitivity?

2008

Two patients with metastatic malignant melanoma developed immediate type hypersensitivity-like symptoms while being treated with recombinant interleukin-(IL-)2 immunotherapy. Both patients showed positive skin prick tests to IL-2, enhanced basophil degranulation in vitro and responded to anti-histamines, but laboratory investigations suggested an IgE-independent, pseudoallergic mast cell degranulation against IL-2.
