摘要：
Fingolimod is an oral medication for multiple sclerosis that sequesters certain subsets of lymphocytes in lymph nodes, reducing egress into blood and their subsequent CNS migration. The initial multi-site randomized Phase III controlled trials found rates of infection similar to those in control groups. However, post-marketing surveillance has revealed an association with several opportunistic infections, including cryptococcosis. We report a case of fingolimod-related cryptococcal meningoencephalitis and IRIS after drug discontinuation and suggest a surveillance and risk mitigation strategy.
