Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have now emerged as a mainstay of treatment for various cancers. Along with development of ICIs, immune-related adverse effects (irAEs) have aroused wide attention. The cardiac irAE, one of the rare but potentially fatal effects, have been reported recently. However, the clinical comprehension of cardiac irAEs remains limited and guidelines are inadequate for cardio-oncologists to tackle the problem. In this review, we have summarized current classifications of, manifestations of, potential mechanisms of, and treatment for ICI-related myocardial injury in order to provide some clues for the understanding of cardiac irAEs in clinical work.
免疫检查点抑制剂(ICIs)现已成为多种癌症治疗的主要手段。随着ICIs的发展,免疫相关不良反应(irAEs)引起了广泛关注。心脏irAE是罕见但可能致命的不良反应之一,最近已有报道。然而,对心脏irAE的临床认识仍然有限,且指南不足以帮助心脏肿瘤学家解决这一问题。在本综述中,我们总结了ICI相关心肌损伤的当前分类、表现、潜在机制和治疗方法,以便为临床工作中理解心脏irAE提供一些线索。
