Résumé

Combination therapy with ipilimumab and nivolumab is an adjuvant treatment approach for metastatic melanoma that boasts increased 3-year survival when compared with a single immunotherapy agent. Combination therapy, however, is associated with increased toxicities, especially cutaneous side-effects. Here we present a patient with metastatic melanoma and a sudden eruption of painful nodules on the face and arms 10 days after the administration of the fourth dose of combination ipilimumab/nivolumab. Biopsies demonstrated lymphoid hyperplasia, not clinically or pathologically consistent with an infectious, malignant or autoimmune etiology; a diagnosis of pseudolymphoma secondary to ipilimumab/nivolumab was made. After a steroid taper, the lesions resolved, and the patient was restarted on nivolumab monotherapy 2 weeks later without recurrence of symptoms or disease.
