Subsequently, he developed dyspnea parallel to improvement of RA. At 10 months after the administration of tocilizumab, he was urgently admitted because of exacerbation of ILD. He died despite receiving steroid pulse therapy and antibiotic therapy on a respirator. This is the first case report to describe the exacerbation of ILD during treatment with tocilizumab in the postmarketing surveillance (PMS) period., Rheumatology international, 32(12), pp.4023-4026; 2012},
