Endocrinopathies are a frequent Consequence of Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor Therapy, with a Low Recovery Rate of both Thyroid and Pituitary Dysfunction

McGowan Anne , Weatherby Tom , Powlson Andrew , Parkinson Christine , Chatterjee Krishna , Corrie Pippa , Moran Carla

Background: Immune checkpoint (CTLA-4, PD-1) inhibitors are increasingly used to treat cancers including advanced melanoma. Although endocrine immune related adverse events (IRAEs) are now well reported, the frequency and type of thyroid and pituitary dysfunction reported varies considerably, with hypophysitis after CTLA-4 inhibitors reported in 2–16%, and thyroid dysfunction after PD-1 inhibitors in 2–39%. In addition, recove...
