Abstract
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) used for the treatment of malignancy are associated with immune-related adverse events, which include inflammatory arthritis. ICI-induced inflammatory arthritis (ICI-IA) is a new clinical entity that may lead to functional impairment and may be persistent even after ICI cessation. We discuss the clinical features, investigation and differential diagnosis. Management needs to consider the safety of immunosuppression in the context of the underlying cancer, and current practice will be further informed by ongoing clinical trials.
期刊介绍:
Clinical Medicine is aimed at practising physicians in the UK and overseas and has relevance to all those managing or working within the healthcare sector.
Available in print and online, the journal seeks to encourage high standards of medical care by promoting good clinical practice through original research, review and comment. The journal also includes a dedicated continuing medical education (CME) section in each issue. This presents the latest advances in a chosen specialty, with self-assessment questions at the end of each topic enabling CPD accreditation to be acquired.
