Delayed presentation of pembrolizumab-induced SJS-TEN overlap syndrome

This case highlights an exceptionally delayed onset of pembrolizumab-induced SJS/TEN overlap, extending known timelines for irAE manifestation. Prior pneumonitis may have predisposed the patient to subsequent cutaneous toxicity. Despite a SCORTEN score predicting high mortality, aggressive immunosuppressive therapy led to a favorable outcome. This underscores the importance of prolonged vigilance and multidisciplinary management in patients with prior irAEs.

Abstract

This case highlights an exceptionally delayed onset of pembrolizumab-induced SJS/TEN overlap, extending known timelines for irAE manifestation. Prior pneumonitis may have predisposed the patient to subsequent cutaneous toxicity. Despite a SCORTEN score predicting high mortality, aggressive immunosuppressive therapy led to a favorable outcome. This underscores the importance of prolonged vigilance and multidisciplinary management in patients with prior irAEs.
