Diagnosis and Management of Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor–related Toxicities in Ovarian Cancer: A Series of Case Vignettes.

Use of immune checkpoint inhibitors targeting cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated antigen 4 and programmed cell death protein 1 have led to improved survival outcomes for advanced solid-tumor malignancies. This report helps the reader gain a better understanding of adverse events in patients with ovarian cancer on checkpoint inhibitor therapy. We describe 3 hypothetical case vignettes of patients with gynecologic cancer on checkpoint inhibitor immunotherapy and discuss common immune-related adverse events. The typical presentation and onset of immune-related events are different from those associated with conventional chemotherapy. This report highlights the importance of early recognition and management of these events. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
