摘要
Paraneoplastic neurologic syndromes(PNSs) caused by immune checkpoint inhibitors(ICIs) is rare and requires clinicians to differentiate between disease progression and immune-related adverse effects(irAEs). We hereby report the case of immune-related myelitis accompanied by positive paraneoplastic autoantibodies following durvalumab treatment for extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC). A 70-year-old Chinese woman with ES-SCLC was administered durvalumab with etoposid-platinum(EP) as first-line treatment. Four cycles after treatment with EP plus ICI, she developed immune-related myelitis with positive paraneoplastic autoantibodies (CV2, SOX1, ZIC4). Spinal MRI showed diffuse abnormal signal shadow in the cervicothoracic spinal cord. She was discontinued for chemotherapy, and treated with high-dose steroids, intravenous immunoglobulin and plasmapheresis, maintenance therapy with steroids resulted in a favorable neurologic outcome. This is the first report of durvalumab-related PNSs. We supposed that the development of paraneoplastic myelitis was causally related to immune activation by durvalumab. Prompt diagnosis and therapeutic intervention are essential for the effective treatment of paraneoplastic myelitis.
