IgA Nephropathy Secondary to Ipilimumab Use

Ipilimumab is a human monoclonal antibody targeting cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 approved for the treatment of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and other malignancies. Despite a high prevalence of other immune-related adverse events (irAEs), checkpoint inhibitor (CPI)-related nephro...
