Abstract

A 56-year-old woman with adenocarcinoma of the right lung developed grade 2 hypo-thyroidism after four cycles of pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy, which was considered to be caused by pembrolizumab. After full clinical evaluation, the immune checkpoint inhibitors was not discontin-ued, and thyroid hormone was supplemented, patients were educated on medication, the drug dose was adjusted according to the thyroid function, and the thyroid function of the patient returned to normal after three months. In order to improve the safety of the clinical application of pembrolizumab, the mechanism, clinical characteristics, risk factors and prognosis of hypothyroidism induced by pembroli-zumab were further analyzed by reviewing the literature of the adverse reactions related to it.
