Cancer immunotherapy, particularly immune checkpoint inhibitors, has positively impacted oncological treatments. Despite its effectiveness, immunotherapy is associated with immune-related adverse events (irAEs) that can affect any organ, including the liver. Hepatotoxicity primarily manifests as hepatitis and, less frequently, cholangitis. Several risk factors, such pre-existing autoimmune and liver diseases, type of combination regimens, play a role in hepatotoxicity (irH), although reliable predictive markers or models are still lacking. The severity irH ranges from mild to severe cases, up to, rare instances, acute failure. Management strategies require regular monitoring for early diagnosis interventions, encompassing strict cases permanent suspension forms. Corticosteroids backbone treatment moderate high-grade damage, alone additional immunosuppressive drugs resistant refractory cases. Given relatively low number lack dedicated prospective studies, much uncertainty remains about optimal management irH, especially most This review presents main features focusing on injury patterns mechanisms, provides an overview landscape, standard care latest evidence.

Immune checkpoint inhibitors have revolutionized cancer treatment, but they are associated with a range of immune-related adverse events (irAEs), and emerging evidence suggests significant sex differences in the incidence, type, severity these toxicities, suggesting an influential factor understanding sex-related irAEs as crucial for optimizing patient care improving clinical outcomes. In MOUSEION-07 study, we aimed to assess association between treatment-related patients treated immunotherapy through large up-to-date meta-analysis available trials. The present systematic review was performed according Preferred Reporting Items Systematic Reviews Meta-analysis. protocol registered PROSPERO no. CRD42024549518.

Background The occurrence of immune-related adverse events (irAEs) seemed to be associated with better outcomes in advanced gastric cancer (AGC) patients. However, research focusing on the impact single-organ irAE (uni-irAE) or multi-organ irAEs (multi-irAEs) AGC outcome is relatively limited. In this study, we investigated individually different survival as well co-occurrence patterns multi-irAEs. Methods uni-irAE, multi-irAEs, and non-irAE were identified based National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guidelines. ICI efficacy for disease control rate (DCR) objective response (ORR) was assessed Response Evaluation Criteria Solid Tumors (RECIST) Version 1.1. association progression-free (PFS) overall (OS) analyzed using Kaplan–Meier method Cox regression model. We also performed pairwise correlation analysis identify irAEs.

Immunotherapy, particularly that based on blocking checkpoint proteins in many tumors, including melanoma, Merkel cell carcinoma, non-small lung cancer (NSCLC), triple-negative breast (TNB cancer), renal cancer, and gastrointestinal endometrial neoplasms, is a therapeutic alternative to chemotherapy. Immune inhibitor (ICI)-based therapies have the potential target different pathways leading destruction of cells. Although ICIs are an effective treatment strategy for patients with highly immune-infiltrated cancers, development adverse effects cutaneous during after common. ICI-associated include mostly inflammatory bullous dermatoses, as well severe side reactions such rash or dermatitis encompassing erythema multiforme; lichenoid, eczematous, psoriasiform, morbilliform lesions; palmoplantar erythrodysesthesia. The immunotherapy-related consequence ICIs’ unique molecular action mainly mediated by activation cytotoxic CD4+/CD8+ T disorders most prevalent induced response anti-programmed death 1 (PD-1), anti-cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated antigen-4 (CTLA-4), ligand (PD-L1) agents. Herein, we will elucidate mechanisms regulating occurrence following ICIs.
