Q

Describe the three drops used in CIN

A

Interferon-α2b (IFNα2b)

  • cytokine produced by immune cells to combat microbes and viruses
  • mechanism of action is thought to be related to its antiproliferative, cytotoxic, and antigenic properties
  • It may be injected subconjunctively or used topically as an eye drop.
  • 1 million IU/mL QID
  • well tolerated, difficult to obtain

Topical MMC

  • antimetabolite that alkylates DNA and disrupts the production of RNA
  • 0.02% or 0.04% QID - lower concentration is usually prescribed continuously for two weeks whereas, the higher concentration may be used for a week followed by 1 week off treatment
  • ocular pain, possible limbal stem cell loss, and other ocular surface toxicity
  • Punctal plug occlusion is advised to decrease the risk of punctual stenosis

5- fluorouracil (5-FU)

  • blocks DNA synthesis by acting as a pyrimidine analog after incorporation into RNA
  • 1% QID
  • Others prescribe it for 4 to 5 days every month; however, this dosing is associated with a higher recurrence rate
  • mild ocular irritation and occasional conjunctivitis
