Two cases of immune checkpoint inhibitor-associated diabetes mellitus induced by serplulimab: Case reports
These cases highlight the clinical heterogeneity and diagnostic challenges of ICI-DM. Routine blood glucose and glycated hemoglobin monitoring before and during immunotherapy may aid early detection. Clinicians should maintain a high index of suspicion for ICI-DM, even in patients without typical risk factors. Early recognition and insulin initiation are essential to prevent life-threatening complications of DKA. This report contributes to the limited literature on serplulimab-induced ICI-DM and provides practical insights into its diagnosis and management.
