Addressing this knowledge gap is particularly important because cancer rates are higher in patients receiving dialysis than in the US general population.3Butler A.M. Olshan A.F.

Outcomes and safety of biweekly and monthly nivolumab in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma and dialysis: three case reports and literature review.Urol Int. 2020; 104: 323-326Crossref PubMed Scopus (5) Google Scholar We aimed to characterize cancer response rates and the incidence of overall and severe (grade 3/4) irAEs in nonselected patients undergoing dialysis receiving ICIs at Partners Healthcare. ICI treatment start dates were determined by oncology infusion records. Patients with at least 1 end-stage renal disease diagnosis code before the ICI start date were reviewed to confirm that they were receiving maintenance hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis at the time of ICI initiation. Clinical details such as demographics, comorbid conditions, medications, cancer type, irAEs, disease status, and patient survival were ascertained through chart review. Severity of irAEs was determined by Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events, reviewed by an oncologist, and confirmed by a subspecialist.8Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Version 5. In: Services USDoHaH, editor. 2017. https://ctep.cancer.gov/protocoldevelopment/electronic_applications/docs/CTCAE_v5_Quick_Reference_5x7.pdf. Accessed May 22, 2020.Google Scholar The Institutional Review Board approved this study and waived the need for informed consent. We identified 19 dialysis patients who received ICI therapy between 2013 and 2019. Table 1 shows baseline characteristics and malignancy type. Thirteen patients (68%) received PD-1 inhibitors; 4 (21%), PD-L1 inhibitors; 1 (5%), a CTLA-4 inhibitor; and 1 (5%), combination PD-1 and CTLA4 inhibitor therapy. All patients received standard ICI dosing regimens without dose reduction (Table S1). Overall, 6 patients (32%) experienced irAEs and 2 (11%) experienced an irAE of grade 3/4 toxicity (pneumonitis and myocarditis). Neither of the high-grade irAEs was confirmed by tissue biopsy. Three patients received systemic corticosteroids (≥60 mg/d) and permanently discontinued ICI therapy due to irAEs; 2 experienced full recovery, while 1 patient with suspected ICI-associated myocarditis had a persistently low left ventricular ejection fraction and died 5 months later of an unclear cause. Three (16%) patients had new-onset hypothyroidism requiring levothyroxine. Regarding cancer outcomes, 8 (42%) survived more than 12 months or are still in remission, including 3 of 4 patients with melanoma (Fig 1).Table 1Patient CharacteristicsCharacteristicValueAge, y71 ± 11Female sex8 (42%)White, non-Hispanic17 (90%)Cancer group Genitourinary6 (32%) Melanoma4 (21%) Merkel cell3 (16%) Head and neck3 (16%) Lung2 (11%) Gastrointestinal1 (5%)ICI class PD-113 (68%) PD-L14 (21%) CTLA-41 (5%) Combination CTLA-4/PD-11 (5%)Medical comorbid conditions Diabetes mellitus6 (32%) Hypertension17 (90%) Coronary artery disease5 (26%) Prior kidney transplant4 (21%)Dialysis modality Peritoneal dialysis4 (21%) Hemodialysis15 (79%)Dialysis vintage, y1.7 [1.0-2.5]Length of ICI treatment, d98 [42-327]Reason for discontinuing immunotherapy Progression9 (47%) Ongoing or completed treatment4 (21%) irAE3 (16%) Non-irAE side effectsa2 (11%) Death1 (5%)irAEs6 (32%)Grade 3-4 irAEs2 (11%)Note: Values given as mean ± standard deviation, count (percent), or median [interquartile range].

The irAEs prompting discontinuation were myocarditis, pneumonitis, adrenalitis, and myositis. aIn both cases, patients discontinued due to fatigue. Notably, 4 patients in this case series had prior failed kidney transplants. Three of the 4 had progressive malignancy and died within 2 months of starting ICI therapy; 2 of these patients were still receiving low-dose transplant immunosuppression (prednisone, 5 mg, daily and prednisone, 10 mg, daily). Patient 4 was weaned off all immunosuppression therapy before starting ICI treatment for melanoma and has since been in remission for 2 years (Fig 1). None had abdominal pain or other clinical signs or symptoms of rejection of the failed allograft. Our dual-center study on the characteristics and clinical courses of patients receiving ICI therapy while on dialysis substantially increases the total number of reported cases of this patient population. A recent literature review reported that 3 of the 13 (23%) patients undergoing dialysis receiving ICIs experienced grade 3/4 irAEs, including pneumonitis, encephalitis, and pemphigoid rash.4Cheun H. Kim M. Lee H. Oh K.H. Keam B. Safety and efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitors for end-stage renal disease patients undergoing dialysis: a retrospective case series and literature review.Invest New Drugs. 2019; 37: 579-583Crossref PubMed Scopus (11) Google Scholar A report of 8 patients with renal cell carcinoma receiving ICIs while receiving dialysis reported grade 3 adverse events in 2 cases.6Vitale M.G. Baldessari C. Milella M. et al.Immunotherapy in dialysis-dependent cancer patients: our experience in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma and a review of the literature.Clin Genitourin Cancer. 2019; 17: e903-e908Abstract Full Text Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (8) Google Scholar Due to the limited number of patients included in these studies, it is impossible to make definite conclusions regarding the safety and efficacy of ICIs in dialysis patients; however, we suspect that the high rate of severe irAEs previously reported in dialysis patients may be due to the reporting bias that exists in case reports. In the general population, 40% to 60% of patients receiving ICIs experience irAEs at some point during therapy.9Som A. Mandaliya R. Alsaadi D. et al.Immune checkpoint inhibitor-induced colitis: a comprehensive review.World J Clin Cases. 2019; 7: 405-418Crossref PubMed Scopus (68) Google Scholar Because ICIs are nonrenally eliminated, no dosage adjustment is recommended for patients with decreased glomerular filtration rates, and given the high molecular weight of ICIs, clearance with dialysis is likely to be minimal. However, pharmacokinetic studies examining dialytic clearance do not exist.10Centanni M. Moes D. Troconiz I.F. Ciccolini J. van Hasselt J.G.C. Clinical pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of immune checkpoint inhibitors.Clin Pharmacokinet. 2019; 58: 835-857Crossref PubMed Scopus (82) Google Scholar Our study is limited by the possible biases of a small retrospective cohort study, as well as the lack of definitive histologic phenotyping of irAEs because none was diagnosed through tissue biopsy. It is important to note that common comorbid conditions, laboratory abnormalities, and symptoms affecting dialysis patients may complicate the diagnosis of irAEs. The optimal management of patients with a prior kidney transplant who develop irAEs requires future study. The reporting of real-world outcomes of treatment with these novel anticancer therapies is of particular value for the dialysis population, which has a 5-year incidence of cancer of nearly 10% and has limited access to safety information due to exclusion from clinical trials.3Butler A.M.
