Gene signature reveals decreased SOX10-dependent transcripts in malignant cells from immune checkpoint inhibitor-resistant cutaneous melanomas

open access: yesiScience, 2023
Summary: Evidence is mounting for cross-resistance between immune checkpoint and targeted kinase inhibitor therapies in cutaneous melanoma patients. Since the loss of the transcription factor, SOX10, causes tolerance to MAPK pathway inhibitors, we used ...

The effects of B cell depletion on immune related adverse events associated with immune checkpoint inhibition

open access: yesExperimental Hematology & Oncology, 2020
This letter describes the potential effect of B cell depletion on immune related adverse events associated with immune checkpoint inhibition. B cell depleting agents such as rituximab reduce B cell to plasma cell differentiation and antibody production ...

Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors in Cancer Therapy

open access: yesCurrent Oncology, 2022
The discovery of immune checkpoint proteins such as PD-1/PDL-1 and CTLA-4 represents a significant breakthrough in the field of cancer immunotherapy. Therefore, humanized monoclonal antibodies, targeting these immune checkpoint proteins have been utilized successfully in patients with metastatic melanoma, renal cell carcinoma, head and neck cancers and

Chronic immune checkpoint inhibitor pneumonitis

open access: yesJournal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer, 2020
Background Pneumonitis from immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) is a potentially fatal immune-related adverse event (irAE) from antiprogrammed death 1/programmed death ligand 1 immunotherapy. Most cases of ICI pneumonitis improve or resolve with 4–6 weeks

Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors in NSCLC [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Treatment Options in Oncology, 2014
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Cytotoxic chemotherapy and tyrosine kinase inhibitors provide palliation and prolong survival, however, the median survival for patients with metastatic disease remains poor and more effective therapies are needed.

Intravenous immunoglobulin is safe and effective in controlling pre-existing paraneoplastic neuromuscular diseases in cancer patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors: two case reports and literature review

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2023
Immune checkpoint inhibitors cause rare but potentially fatal neuromuscular complications, leading to a concern to use these agents in cancer patients with pre-existing autoimmune or inflammatory neuromuscular diseases.

Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor-Associated Myocarditis

open access: yesJACC: Case Reports, 2020
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) can induce immunity-related adverse events. We demonstrate the clinical use of cardiac magnetic resonance and endomyocardial biopsy in the diagnosis and subsequent monitoring of ICI-associated myocarditis, suggesting ...

Immune checkpoint inhibitor myocarditis: a systematic case study

open access: yesРоссийский кардиологический журнал, 2020
Myocarditis is a life-threatening complication of immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy. Over the past ten years, drugs in this group have been used in the treatment of a wide range of hematological diseases and solid tumors.

Immune checkpoint inhibitor-associated sarcoidosis reaction [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Nephropathology, 2023
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) constitute a class of drugs that stimulate the immune system to fight cancer cells. However, they can also induce immune-related adverse events (irAEs) in various organs, including the kidneys.
