Publication number: 20220202906Abstract: Checkpoint inhibitor-induced pneumonitis (CIP) is characterized clinically by dyspnea, cough and tachypnea. Hypoxia results from a lymphocyte-dominated alveolitis leading to ground glass opacities and consolidations observed by CT scan. Histological findings include lymphocytic infiltrates, granuloma formation and eosinophilic accumulation. In the management of CIP, systemic administration of steroids such as methylprednisolone is the standard therapy. Moreover, CIP in most cases leads to discontinuation of checkpoint inhibitory therapy and steroids limit the therapeutic effect of checkpoint inhibitors resulting in progression of the underlying malignant disease. Therefore, there is a need of other therapeutic options in CIP that ideally could abrogate the alveolar inflammation induced by checkpoint inhibitors without affecting the systemic effect on the immune system.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 5, 2020Publication date: June 30, 2022Inventors: Joachim MÜLLER-QUERNHEIM, Björn Christian FRYE
