The effectiveness and safety of nivolumab, an anti-programmed cell death protein 1 mAbmonoclonal antibody, in patients with renal replacement therapy is unclear, with limited evidence supporting its usefulness in this context. Therefore, we report a case of recurrent metastatic melanoma in a patient on haemodialysis successfully treated with nivolumab. As seen in patients without renal impairment, significant regression of the lesions was observed after 8 weeks of treatment, reaching complete clinical response after 4 months. During follow-up, no dose adjustment, delay, or treatment suspension due to toxicity were required.

Tumor Immunotherapy01:27

Tumor Immunotherapy

Immunotherapy is a treatment that boosts or manipulates the immune system to fight diseases, including cancer. For instance, by stimulating an immune response through vaccinations against viruses that cause cancers, like hepatitis B virus and human papillomavirus, these diseases can be prevented. Nonetheless, some cancer cells can avoid the immune system due to their rapid mutation and division. The immune response to many cancers involves three phases: elimination, equilibrium, and escape.

Microscopic Cyst Resection for the Treatment of Patients Diagnosed with Epididymal Cyst

Here, we present a protocol to treat patients diagnosed with an epididymal cyst using microscopic cyst resection. Based on microscopic manipulation, a largely improved visualization of the subtle tissue structures of the epididymis was obtained, so the cyst could be clearly dissected apart and completely removed...
