Clinical management of patients with local control failure following stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) for brain metastasis (BM) can be frequently challenging. Re-irradiation with multi-fraction (fr) SRS by using a biological effective dose of ≥80 Gy, based on the linear-quadratic formula with an alpha/beta ratio of 10 (BED), can be an efficacious option for such a scenario with the BED of <80 Gy. However, its long-term safety beyond one year remains unclear.

Introduction: Nivolumab, the monoclonal antibody inhibitor of programmed cell death protein 1, enhances the T-cell response, including anti-tumour responses, by blocking the attachment of programmed death-ligand 1 and programmed death-ligand 2 ligands to the programmed cell death protein 1 receptor, which in turn leads to a reduction in tumour growth. Nivolumab has been approved in relapsed or refractory classic Hodgkin's lymphoma after autologous transplantation of haematopoietic stem cell and treatment with brentuximab as monotherapy.
Case Report: We herewith report a case of 65-year-old woman who developed an interstitial pneumonitis and a global cardiac hypokinesis following a treatment with Nivolumab for a refractory Hodgkin's Lymphoma.

Nivolumab, an antibody against anti-programmed death type 1, has been used for treatment of advanced non-small cell lung cancer with improvement of overall survival. Usually, diarrhea, cutaneous rash, and pruritus are reported as the most common immune-related adverse effects of nivolumab therapy. Oral lesions and secondary adrenal insufficiency sometimes occur but usually are rare events.
