This is a patient with locally advanced urothelial carcinoma treated with gemcitabine, carboplatin, and pembrolizumab, developed a mixed biochemical pattern of liver injury with predominantly cholangiopathic disease, treated with budesonide induction bridged into early administration of tocilizumab to achieve steroid-free biochemical remission. The patient had a concurrent diagnosis of cholecystitis deemed to be an irAE from ICI. Liver biopsy was consistent with IMCH with predominance of cholangiopathy. Treatment of the patient’s IMCH included a brief course of budesonide, azathioprine, ursodiol, and one dose of subcutaneous TCZ, yielding normalization of AST and ALT, and stabilization of ALP.

摘要

This is a patient with locally advanced urothelial carcinoma treated with gemcitabine, carboplatin, and pembrolizumab, developed a mixed biochemical pattern of liver injury with predominantly cholangiopathic disease, treated with budesonide induction bridged into early administration of tocilizumab to achieve steroid-free biochemical remission. The patient had a concurrent diagnosis of cholecystitis deemed to be an irAE from ICI. Liver biopsy was consistent with IMCH with predominance of cholangiopathy. Treatment of the patient’s IMCH included a brief course of budesonide, azathioprine, ursodiol, and one dose of subcutaneous TCZ, yielding normalization of AST and ALT, and stabilization of ALP.
