description | Background
Immunotherapy with checkpoint inhibitors has demonstrated durable responses and remarkable antitumor effects in a variety of cancers. Although these agents are generally well-tolerated, patients can experience immune-related adverse events (irAEs) that require prompt recognition by healthcare providers. Immune-related ocular toxicities are rare, but serious adverse events have been reported with the use of checkpoint inhibitors.
Case presentation: Here, we describe a rare case of panuveitis during Nivolumab and Ipilimumab combination treatment in a patient being treated for recurrent Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC). The patient was managed with an injection of Ozurdex (Allergan, Madison, NJ), a dexamethasone intravitreal implant. The patient had a resolution of inflammation and an improvement in her vision and was able to resume nivolumab monotherapy without recurrence of the panuveitis.
Conclusion
This case highlights the importance of early recognition of ocular irAEs by ocular oncologists and the successful approach to treatment of immunotherapy-induced panuveitis in order to avoid permanent cessation of therapy. |
