Treatment of moderate-to-severe psoriasis in patients with HIV infection is a clinical challenge. We present the case of a patient with a longstanding history of well-controlled HIV. He had failed topical management, and his hypertriglyceridemia made use of acitretin potentially unsafe. He was unable to regularly attend a phototherapy unit. Physical examination revealed 12% total body surface area involvement with a Psoriasis Area Severity Index (PASI) of 10.2. His Dermatology Quality of Life Index (DLQI) was 20. After 3 months of apremilast treatment, his PASI decreased to 4.1. After 7 months, his PASI decreased to 2.7 and his DLQI to 1. Two years later, his PASI score was 2.4, with a stable CD4 count of 1200 cells/mm3 and an undetectable viral load. There were no serious opportunistic infections or laboratory abnormalities. To our knowledge, this represents the second reported case of psoriasis treatment with apremilast in a patient with HIV.
