Many cutaneous adverse events have been identified with recently developed targeted treatments. Some of them are common and specific, like paradoxical psoriasiform eruptions with anti-TNFα, papulopustular eruptions and paronychias with EGFR inhibitors and peculiar hand-foot skin reactions with multitargeted kinase inhibitors sorefenib and sunitinib. Patients treated with these recently available biologics need a careful monitoring.
