A 52-year-old man was referred to our dermatology clinic for a diagnosis of melanoma. At the time, his melanoma was excised he developed an annular, polycyclic, scaling eruption consistent with subacute cutaneous lupus erythematosus (SCLE). Skin biopsy and laboratory evaluation confirmed this diagnosis. The patient had been using pantoprazole for gastro-oesophageal reflux disease for the last 3 years. The patient’s melanoma was treated surgically, and his SCLE was treated with topical steroids and hydroxychloroquine. His SCLE cleared rapidly, his steroids and hydroxychloroquine were stopped and he remains free of SCLE off of treatment. The parallel course of the patient’s SCLE and melanoma prompted consideration of SCLE as paraneoplastic to melanoma in this case. The clinical picture was complicated by the patient’s use of a proton pump inhibitor, which are common causes of drug-induced SCLE. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of possible paraneoplastic SCLE associated with melanoma.

Capecitabine is a fluoropyrimidine chemotherapy prodrug of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) used in the treatment of metastatic breast and colorectal cancers. Drug-induced subacute cutaneous lupus erythematosus (DI-SCLE) is a rare side effect of capecitabine therapy, with eight cases previously reported. We report a case of DI-SCLE in a patient with a documented history of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). This is the second documented case of DI-SCLE in a patient with a past medical history of SLE, and provides evidence that there may be an increased risk of DI-SCLE in these patients. Further research should examine whether patients with SLE are at greater risk for this adverse event.
