Comparing the impact of steroid sparing immunosuppression vs. steroid monotherapy for immune-related adverse events in non–small cell lung cancer and melanoma.
Abstract:2637 Background: The effect of steroid-sparing immunosuppressive agents (SSIAs) for immune-related adverse events (irAEs) on immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) antitumor activity is not well-known. We compared tumor outcomes of patients who received corticosteroid monotherapy versus those who received an addition of SSIA for irAE treatment. Methods: We conducted a retrospective case-control study of patients age ≥18 years with melanoma or non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who were treated with ≥1 ICI at a qua… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
