Zusammenfassung: | Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are complicated by immune-related adverse events (irAEs), such as myositis, myocarditis, and myasthenia gravis (MG). Anti-titin antibody and anti-voltage-gated potassium channel Kv1.4 antibody are anti-striated antibodies that are frequently detected in MG patients with myositis and/or myocarditis. However, the clinical relationship between positive anti-striated antibodies and irAEs of ICIs remains unknown. We herein report a case of nivolumab-induced myositis and myocarditis with positive anti-titin antibody and anti-voltage-gated potassium channel Kv1.4 antibody in a patient with non-small-cell lung cancer. We also review reported cases of positive anti-striated antibodies related to irAEs of ICIs. |
