We report a case of an acute anaphylactic reaction to intravenous cyclophosphamide in a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus. Skin testing for reactivity to cyclophosphamide and one of its metabolites, 4-hydroperoxycyclophosphamide, was performed on the patient and on 6 controls. The patient exhibited positive skin test responses; all controls had negative responses. The results suggest an acute hypersensitivity reaction related to sensitivity to cyclophosphamide and to 4-hydroperoxycyclophosphamide, through a shared antigenic determinant or dual sensitization.
