Deskripsi
Immune checkpoint inhibitors have revolutionized cancer treatment. They can induce cutaneous immune-related adverse events. One patient with immune-related eczema and two with immune-related bullous pemphigoid were successfully treated with dupilumab. Guidelines recommend the use of systemic steroids to manage moderate-to-severe cutaneous immune-related adverse events. They could potentially interfere with immunotherapy. There is a need to find alternative treatments that are safe in a cancer setting.
