Abstract

Dünya Sağlık Örgütü tarafından 2020 yılı Mart ayında, solunum yolunu etkileyen SARS-CoV-2 virüsünün sebep olduğu koronavirüs hastalığı (COVID-19) nedeniyle pandemi ilan edildi. Ağır akciğer tutulumuyla seyreden bu enfeksiyon için komorbit hastalıklar tanımlandı. Çok faktörlü patofizyolojisi nedeniyle astım, en çok merak edilen, araştırılan ve komorbiditesi tartışmalı hastalıklardan birisi oldu. Gün geçtikçe kronik hastalıkların tedavisinde yeri önem kazanan ve kullanımı artan biyolojik ajanların, viral yükle ve hastalık semptomlarıyla ilişkisi ise araştırılmaktadır. Omalizumab astım ve kronik ürtikerde kullanım onayı olan insan kaynaklı anti immunglonulin E (IgE) antikorudur. Yirmi yaşında alerjik astım tanılı, bir yıldır omalizumab ile astım semptomları kontrol altında seyreden hastamızın COVID-19 hastalığı seyrini sunuyoruz. Hastamız öksürük veya diğer astım atak semptomları geliştirmeden, hastaneye yatırılmadan, COVID-19 hastalığını ayaktan geçirdi. Bu olgumuzu sunarak, COVID-19 hastalığı sırasında omalizumab tedavisinin hastalığın seyri üzerine etkisi olmadığını belirtmek istiyoruz.

SARS COV-2 Infection in an Allergic Asthma Patient Taking Omalizumab: A Case Report

Abstract

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared a pandemic due to the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus affecting the respiratory tract. Comorbid diseases with severe lung involvement were defined for this infection. Due to its multifactorial pathophysiology, asthma has become one of the most curious, researched, and controversial diseases with comorbidity. The relationship between viral load and disease symptoms of biological agents, which are becoming more important and increasingly used in treating chronic diseases, is being investigated. Omalizumab is a human anti-immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibody approved for asthma and chronic urticaria use. We present the course of COVID-19 disease in a 20-year-old patient with allergic asthma whose asthma symptoms were under control with omalizumab for one year. Our patient had an outpatient course for COVID-19 without developing a cough or other asthma attack symptoms and without hospitalization. By presenting this case, we would like to emphasize that omalizumab treatment during COVID-19 disease does not affect the course of the disease.
