    Polymyositis patients with cancer show depressed immune responses. Early treatment is effective, but cancer removal is crucial for managing polymyositis when a neoplasm is present.

    Area of Science:

    • Neurology
    • Immunology
    • Oncology

    Background:

    • Polymyositis is an idiopathic inflammatory myopathy.
    • The association between polymyositis and cancer requires further investigation.

    Observation:

    • Sixteen polymyositis cases were analyzed.
    • Nine cases had no evidence of cancer; seven had associated cancer.

    Findings:

    • Patients without cancer exhibited normal immune responses.
    • Patients with cancer displayed significantly depressed immune responses.
    • Early polymyositis treatment without cancer yielded satisfactory outcomes.

    Implications:

    • Immune response is vital for polymyositis diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment.
