Immune checkpoint inhibitors and endocrinopathies in pediatric brain tumor patients
This is one of the first institutional surveys of pediatric ICIs in a high-volume pediatric brain tumor center. Thyroid surveillance commonly occurred in pediatric patients, revealing diagnoses of hypothyroidism, which is consistent with adult data. However, little information is available for non-thyroid endocrine conditions, reflecting the need for comprehensive and systematic endocrine surveillance.
