Summary

This study evaluates the effectiveness of low-dose corticosteroids in managing grade 2-3 immune-related hepatitis in cancer patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors. It aims to determine whether of 0.5-1miligram per kilogram bodyweight prednisolone is sufficient to manage immune-related hepatitis without the need for dose escalation or additional immunosuppressive therapy.

Conditions

  • Immune Related Adverse Events
  • Immune-Mediated Hepatitis
  • Cancer

Interventions

DRUG

Low-dose corticosteroids for immune-related hepatitis grade 3

Prednisolone 0.5-1 mg/kg orally for grade 3 IR-hepatitis; adjusted based on liver function; treatment per local standard of care.

DRUG

Low-dose corticosteroids for immune-related hepatitis grade 2

Hold immunotherapy and reassess liver function at the treating physician's discretion. If liver function tests persistently worsen or continue to rise, consider administering prednisolone at 0.5 mg/kg body weight
