Context: The immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy is frequently used to treat advanced cancers. Autoimmune adverse events have been reported, such as endocrine side effects including frequent thyroid disorders and more rarely hypophysitis. The aim of this study was to describe retrospectively the association thyroiditis-hypophysitis.Patients and method: From 99 patients with endocrine side effects of the ImmuCare cohort, 18 patients with hypophysiti...

Context: Anti-programmed cell death-1 (Anti-PD-1) antibodies have revolutionized advanced cancer therapy. Anti-PD1 therapy is responsible for immune-related adverse events, with frequent endocrine manifestations. Acquired generalized lipodystrophy (AGL), is a rare disease, thought to be immune-mediated, characterized by loss of adipose tissue and insulin resistance-associated complications. We describe the first case of AGL induced by immune checkpoint therapy.<p class="ab...
