Abstract

Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a heterogeneous group of lung conditions whose etiology is varied, although toxins or other drugs can frequently cause it. Apalutamide is a selective inhibitor of androgen receptors used in cases of prostate cancer resistant to treatment with hormone blockade. There are three cases of drug-associated ILD published to date. We present a patient under treatment with apalutamide who developed a very rapid progression of ILD. An etiological diagnosis was made and treatment with high doses of corticosteroids was established, however, the patient died.
