Popis: | Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) represent a new standard of care for patients with advanced nonsmall cell lung cancer, improving overall survival compared with standard chemotherapy. However, a new pattern of response to ICIs characterized by accelerated tumor growth has been recently described, termed hyperprogressive disease (HPD). We report the case of a 73-year-old patient with advanced lung adenocarcinoma who developed HPD following treatment with a unique dose of atezolizumab for a skin metastasis that was refractory to chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Potential clinical biomarkers related to HPD to ICIs are reviewed. |
