SUCCESSFUL REINTRODUCTION AND CONTINUATION OF NIVOLUMAB IN A PATIENT WITH IMMUNE CHECKPOINT INHIBITOR-INDUCED BULLOUS PEMPHIGOID

Successful reintroduction and continuation of nivolumab in a patient with immune checkpoint inhibitor-induced bullous pemphigoid

Many advanced cancers, such as melanoma, evade the immune system by exploiting negative feedback mechanisms.Immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy dramatically enhances immune Western Bits surveillance and has revolutionized treatment of advanced melanoma.However, ICI therapy is also associated with multiple cutaneous adverse events.We describe
