Secondary Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis Following Dostarlimab Treatment in a Patient With Metastatic Endometrial Cancer

Immunotherapy is a rapidly expanding cancer treatment strategy. Dostarlimab is administered as the first-line treatment for metastatic endometrial cancer in combination with chemotherapy. Herein, we describe the case of a 72-year-old female patient who developed hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis after receiving a single dose of 500 mg of dostarlimab. The patient's clinical outcome improved after treatment with ruxolitinib and corticosteroids. Oncological treatment was resumed in combination with chemotherapy alone.

Abstract

Immunotherapy is a rapidly expanding cancer treatment strategy. Dostarlimab is administered as the first-line treatment for metastatic endometrial cancer in combination with chemotherapy. Herein, we describe the case of a 72-year-old female patient who developed hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis after receiving a single dose of 500 mg of dostarlimab. The patient's clinical outcome improved after treatment with ruxolitinib and corticosteroids. Oncological treatment was resumed in combination with chemotherapy alone.
