Rachel Woodford, Karen Briscoe, R. Don Tustin, Ankit Jain
Abstract
Immunotherapy is increasingly defining a role in a wide variety of tumours such that as use becomes more ubiquitous, so too will the complications. A relatively rare complication of immunotherapy use is immune-related gastritis. In this case series, we present two cases of immunotherapy-related gastritis from our institution and undertake a comprehensive review and analysis of the literature around this less common adverse event.
