Dramatic, significant metabolic response to a one‐time pembrolizumab treatment following a relapse of pre‐existing organizing pneumonia in a patient with advanced non‐small cell lung cancer: A case report
Abstract Immune checkpoint inhibitors can often trigger immune‐related adverse events (irAEs), such as relapse of pre‐existing interstitial pneumonia. Here, we report the case of an 88‐year‐Japanese man diagnosed with advanced lung adenocarcinoma with a high tumor proportion score of programmed deat...
