[Expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of anticancer drug-induced interstitial lung disease]

Drug-induced interstitial lung disease (DILD) is the most common pulmonary adverse events caused by anti-cancer treatment. In recent years, with the development of clinical oncology, a large amount of novel anti-cancer drugs have been approved and widely used in clinical practice, and the incidence of anti-cancer drug related DILD is gradually increasing. DILD lacks specific clinical manifestations or diagnostic criteria. If not treated properly, it may leads to interruption or discontinuation of anti-cancer treatment, or even become life threat in severe cases. Therefore, the Anti-cancer Drug-induced Interstitial Lung Disease Management Group have reached a consensus on the diagnosis and management of anti-cancer DILD after several rounds of discussion. This consensus aims to improve clinicians' awareness of anti-cancer drug related-DILD and proposes an algorithm for the diagnosis and treatment of this disease, and to improve patients' prognosis and quality of life.
