Emir Sokolović: The need for systematic thyroid monitoring in mNSCLC patients on ICIs
Emir Sokolović, Medical Oncology Resident at Clinical Center University of Sarajevo, shared a post on LinkedIn about a paper he co-authored with colleagues published in Biomolecules and Biomedicine:
“Thyroid dysfunction is a common immune-related adverse event in patients with metastatic NSCLC receiving ICIs – particularly atezolizumab – and may correlate with improved PFS.
These observations highlight the importance of systematic thyroid monitoring in this population and raise the possibility that thyroid dysfunction could serve as a surrogate marker of enhanced immunotherapy efficacy.
Further prospective research is needed to clarify the underlying mechanisms and confirm the potential prognostic value of this endocrine irAE.”
