Results: Ocular adverse events associated with immune checkpoint inhibitors, due to their rarity, remain poorly characterised. Pembrolizumab targets the programmed cell death (PD-1) protein on T cells, circumventing the mechanisms by which cancer cells evade the body’s adaptive immune response. To date, reports of ocular surface disease, neuro-ophthalmic complications, orbitopathy, retinal dysfunction and uveitis have been reported following pembrolizumab i

Ocular immune-related adverse events (IrAEs) associated with use of checkpoint inhibitors (CPIs) in cancer therapeutics are relatively rare, occurring in approximately 1% of treated patients. Recognition and early intervention are essential because the degree of tissue damage may be disproportionate to the symptoms, and lack of appropriate treatment risks permanent loss of vision. International guidelines on managing ocular IrAEs provide limited advice only. Importantly, local interventions can be effective and may avoid the need for systemic corticosteroids, thereby permitting the continuatio

Abstract:
BackgroundRelapsed/refractory B-precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (BCP-ALL) remains a major therapeutic challenge in pediatric hematology. Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells targeting CD19 have shown remarkable initial response rates in BCP-ALL patients, while long-term leukemia control rate is only about 50%. So far, main mechanisms of BCP-ALL relapse after CD19-CAR T-cell therapy have been either insufficient CAR T-cell persistence in vivo or loss of surface CD19.Case ReportHere, we report an exceptional presentation of BCP-ALL relapse in the eye during the systemic control through

Alveolar orbital rhabdomyosarcoma is a rare malignant neoplasm in adults and even more uncommon during pregnancy, characterized by aggressive behavior and poor prognosis. We present the case of a 26-year-old woman at 23 weeks of gestation with progressive proptosis, diplopia, and decreased visual acuity. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed an expansive orbital lesion, histologically confirmed as alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma. Management required a multidisciplinary approach, prioritizing maternal-fetal stability while establishing an appropriate oncologic therapeutic strategy. This case discusses

These findings are consistent with an involvement of the central nervous system and are thus related to the prognosis.

Choroidal melanoma (CM) is the most common malignant ocular tumor in adults. The current treatment of metastatic CM is limited by the intrinsic resistance of CM to conventional systemic therapies. Immunotherapy alone or in association with cytotoxic treatment became a realist option treatment. Advancements in molecular biology have resulted in the identification of a number of promising prognostic and therapeutic targets. Herein, we report a rare case of 36-year-old patient with metastatic CM who presented a good long response to treatment with double immunotherapy reaching 3 years of overall
