Prospective and between trial comparisons indicate that first-line treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors improves survival outcomes compared to first-line therapy with combined BRAF and MEK inhibitors in metastatic melanoma containing BRAFV600E/K mutations. Long-term outcomes for BRAF/MEK inhibition after progression on immunotherapy have not been reported. Moreover, clinical variables associated with outcome from treatment with combined BRAF/MEK inhibition were previously identified in the first-line setting but have not been investigated when targeted therapies are administered after progression on immune therapy.

Background: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) are clinically active across multiple tumor types but the associated immune-related adverse events (irAEs) lead to treatment delays or discontinuation and negatively impact quality-of-life. Hypophysitis is often a permanent irAE that may affect multiple pituitary hormonal axes. Here we comprehensively characterize our institution's clinical experience with ICI-induced hypophysitis and the associated patterns of pituitary function loss.
