Résumé

Nivolumab, an antibody against human programmed cell death 1 (PD-1), enhances pre-existing immune responses and has antitumor activity. However, it may also cause undesirable immune-related adverse events (irAEs), such as anti-PD-1-related colitis. In addition, Nivolumab can worsen pre-existing autoimmune diseases. Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the colon. Its exact cause is unknown, but it may involve the dysregulation of the mucosal immune response. Thus, it is of great interest whether nivolumab can affect UC activity. This is the first report of a patient with epipharyngeal carcinoma and ulcerative colitis who was confirmed to have been safely treated with nivolumab based on autopsy findings.
