Abstract
Targeted immunotherapy became the most advanced approach for cancer treatment. Programmed death-1 (PD-1) expressed on activated T cells can reverse immune suppression and cause T-cell activation. Nivolumab, a PD-1 immune checkpoint inhibitor antibody that is a fully human immunoglobulin G4, blocks PD-1 and promotes antitumor immunity. Cabozantinib (tyrosine kinase inhibitor) inhibits the tyrosine kinase activity of vascular endothelial growth factor receptors 1, 2, and 3. As a result of enhancing immune response in normal tissues, immune-related adverse events can occur. Thyroid dysfunction is a common form of immune-related adverse event and seen on 18 F-FDG PET/CT scans post therapy.
