View clinical trials related to Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor.
Filter by:Immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) includes agents that block cytotoxic T-cell-associated antigen 4 (CTLA-4), programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1), and programmed cell death protein ligand 1 (PD-L1). Since the FDA-approval of the CTLA-4 inhibitor ipilimumab in 2011, ICI drugs have emerged as a powerful new tool in the treatment for several advanced cancers. Now indications for ICI have expanded dramatically due to their efficacy and include a wide array of cancer types. However, the administration of ICI, whereas, carry the risk of developing immune-related adverse events (irAEs) and may lead to serious and even fatal events. Endocrine dysfunctions are among the most common irAEs that have been reported in clinical trials with ICI, including thyroid dysfunction, hypopituitarism, primary adrenal insufficiency (PAI) and insulin-deficient diabetes (ICI-DM). However, it is difficult to acquire a complete picture of irAEs from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) due to limitations in the study design and realistic practicalities.
This is an observational, retrospective and monocentric study, conducted at the university Hospital of Brest The primary objective is to assess the association between the occurrence of thyroid dysfunction in patients treated with Nivolumab® for a non-small cell lung cancer and prognosis and therapeutic response The second objective is to assess prognosis and therapeutic response according to severity and subtype of thyroid dysfunction
