Abstract:
The use of immune checkpoint inhibitors in cancer therapy has increased throughout the years and will continue in the future. These drugs have shown groundbreaking survival improvements in patients with different types of cancer and are being studied in many clinical trials. Therefore, their side effects will continue to be a concern for clinicians. Endocrine immune related adverse effects (irAEs) are particularly important because of their permanent damage, need of livelong therapy and severe acute presentations. The aim of this review is to present updated information on endocrine immune related adverse effects (irAEs).
