Summary

Despite the lack of safety and efficacy data regarding immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) for renal dysfunction, they have been approved to treat even in the patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). We report our experience with ICI administration to three ESRD patients undergoing hemodialysis. One of the patients had a partial response for several months; however, the other patients had a stable disease while undergoing dialysis. The toxicity was tolerable; however, one patient developed grade 2 pneumonitis. A literature review of other rarely reported cases of hemodialysis revealed that 10 out of 13 patients had a partial response or complete response; in addition, grade 3 or grade 4 immune-related adverse events occurred in 3 patients. ESRD combined with dialysis may not be a contraindication for the use of ICIs. ICIs can be beneficial to ESRD patients undergoing dialysis. However, caution is needed regarding immune-related adverse events. Further prospective studies involving pharmacokinetic analyses are necessary to obtain reliable safety and efficacy data.
