Development of endocrinopathy following treatment of metastatic melanoma with an immune checkpoint inhibitor is associated with better response

Mitsaki Stefania , Flynn Michael , Gore Martin , Larkin James , Morganstein Daniel

Background: Immune checkpoint inhibitors have revolutionized the treatment of metastatic melanoma, demonstrating durable responses, but can result in immune-related adverse events (irAEs). Endocrinopathies are amongst the more common adverse events, and thyroid dysfunction and hypophysitis being the most frequent; the latter of these has been positively correlated with oncological outcome. This study compared overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS) and disease c...
