A 56-year-old white man with a 74 pack-year smoking history presented with macroscopic hematuria and a significant weight loss of 45 pounds in 6 months. His clinical laboratory tests indicated iron defi ciency anemia and a computed tomography (CT) scan showed a left kidney tumor, mediastinal lymph nodes, and multiple lung metastases. A percutaneous CT-guided kidney biopsy revealed grade 3 clear cell renal carcinoma based on World Health Organization/International Society of Urologic Pathology classifi cation. The patient started first line systemic treatment for intermediate-risk metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) with combination immunotherapy with nivolumab plus ipilimumab.1 After 10 days of the first cycle, he presented with a pruritic maculopapular rash covering 20% of his body surface.

Association of Immune-Related Adverse Events With Efficacy in Consolidation Nivolumab Plus Ipilimumab or Nivolumab Alone After Chemoradiation in Patients With Unresectable Stage III Nonsmall Cell Lung Cancer: An Exploratory Analysis From the Big 10 Cancer Research Consortium Study BTCRC LUN 16-081.

Background: Immunotherapy has been widely incorporated into the treatment of patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Many of these patients will experience immune-related adverse events (irAEs) without decreased efficacy. We report a retrospective analysis of the association between irAEs and efficacy outcomes from the BTCRC LUN 16-081 randomized phase 2 trial of consolidation nivolumab (N) plus ipilimumab (IPI) vs N alone following chemoradiotherapy in unresectable Stage IIIA/IIIB NSCLC.

Introduction: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have revolutionized cancer treatment but can give rise to immune-related adverse events such as ICI-related diabetes mellitus (DM).
Case Presentation: We herein present the case of a 59-year-old Japanese man with malignant melanoma who developed ICI-related DM after 18 months of nivolumab treatment. He experienced marked hyperglycemia and diabetic ketoacidosis without a personal or family history of diabetes.
Tremelimumab plus durvalumab prior to chemoradiotherapy in unresectable, locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer: the Induction trial.

NKI, Amsterdam, Netherlands.
Background: The phase I Induction trial (NCT04287894) assessed the feasibility and safety of induction immunotherapy (IIT) prior to concurrent chemoradiotherapy (cCRT) in patients with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Methods: Patients with unresectable stage II/III NSCLC were eligible for inclusion. Patients received either one cycle of tremelimumab (75mg) with two cycles of durvalumab (1500mg) in cohort I, one cycle of tremelimumab (300mg) with two cycles of durvalumab in cohort II or one cycle of tremelimumab (300mg) with one cycle of durvalumab in cohort III.

Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of induction chemotherapy combined with programmed death protein 1 (PD-1) inhibitor (sintilimab) followed by concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) plus sintilimab, and subsequent maintenance with sintilimab (IC-ICCRT-IO) for patients with unresectable locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) in a retrospective study.
Methods: Data from patients with histologically confirmed, locally advanced, inoperable ESCC who received IC-ICCRT-IO were retrospectively analyzed. Treatment effects were evaluated after 2 cycles of induction therapy and after CCRT by contrast-enhanced CT scans and esophagograms, followed by subsequent evaluations every 3 months post-treatment.
