A 51-year-old man underwent second-line treatment for non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with the immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) pembrolizumab. On day 2 after two cycles of pembrolizumab, he presented with edema limited to the left third, fourth, and fifth fingers. Based on symptoms, laboratory results, and contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings, we diagnosed him with tenosynovitis. We prescribed oral prednisolone (0.5 mg/kg/day), and pembrolizumab was continued. Prednisolone immediately relieved the symptoms, and the tumor was still shrinking on day 21 after eight cycles of pembrolizumab. ICI-induced tenosynovitis was managed while continuing ICI usage, suggesting that 0.5 mg/kg/day prednisone might be effective for tenosynovitis without ICI cessation.
一名51岁男性接受了免疫检查点抑制剂(ICI)帕博利珠单抗用于非小细胞肺癌(NSCLC)的二线治疗。在接受两个周期帕博利珠单抗治疗后的第2天,他出现了仅局限于左手第三、第四和第五指的水肿。根据症状、实验室检查结果以及对比增强磁共振成像(MRI)结果,我们诊断他患有腱鞘炎。我们开具了口服泼尼松龙(0.5 mg/kg/天),并继续使用帕博利珠单抗。泼尼松龙立即缓解了症状,在接受八个周期帕博利珠单抗治疗后的第21天,肿瘤仍在缩小。在继续使用ICI的同时对ICI诱导的腱鞘炎进行了处理,这表明0.5 mg/kg/天的泼尼松可能对腱鞘炎有效且无需停用ICI。
