A retrospective chart review of management strategies for lichenoid eruptions associated with immune-checkpoint inhibitor therapy from a single institution.

Immune checkpoint inhibitors and their associated immune-related cutaneous adverse events are continuing to become a mainstay of cancer treatment regimens. While most rashes are mild and easily manageable, severe or persistent rashes like lichenoid dermatoses can significantly impact the quality of life and may require ICI cessation. Lichenoid dermatoses currently have no management guidelines beyond the use of topical or oral steroids.

Systemic Treatment of Cutaneous Adverse Events After Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor Therapy: A Review.

As treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors (CPIs) for cancer increases, so has the incidence of immune-related cutaneous adverse events (irCAEs). These toxicities can significantly impact quality of life and may be dose-limiting. Current guidelines for irCAEs offer only corticosteroids or CPI discontinuation.
