Treating Cutaneous Immune-Related Adverse Events from Immune Checkpoint Blockade
Abstract:
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICPis) have revolutionized outcomes in various advanced malignancies. Therapeutic restoration of a robust T-cell response against malignant cells is also at the root of distinct cutaneous immune-related adverse events (cirAEs). As approved indications for ICPis increase and interdisciplinary collaboration with oncology grows, identifying the most common skin toxicities from ICPis, particularly on melanin-rich skin,1 and understanding treatment strategies are increasingly crucial for dermatologists. This brief review highlights common cirAEs and summarizes the latest evidence for interventions.
