Abstract:
In the past decade, immunotherapy with checkpoint inhibitors has revolutionized the field of oncology. Checkpoint inhibitors have been approved for several types of cancer and thousands of patients in Sweden now receive oncological immunotherapy annually. Immune-related side effects are common and can occur in almost any organ. These side effects are different from those that occur with traditional oncological treatments. The side effects are usually mild, but can be serious and even lethal. In a short time, health care providers have had to readjust to be able to handle these side effects. Early and correct diagnosis of immune-related side effects, proper management and a multidisciplinary approach is crucial. Here, we give an overview of the presentation, diagnosis and treatment of immune-related side effects, with emphasis on endocrine, rheumatologic and skin toxicity.
