About this study

Official title: Clinical, Biological and Histological Characteristics of Bullous Pemphigoid Induced by antiPD-1/PDL-1 Therapy: A National Retrospective Cohort Study

Immune checkpoint inhibitors (monoclonal antibodies targeting cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen-4 (CTLA-4), programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) or programmed death ligand 1 (PD- L1)) have revolutionized the treatment of many cancers. The widespread use of these treatments has triggered a new spectrum of immune related adverse events (irAE). Several cases of bullous pemphigoid (BP) triggered by antiPD-1/PDL-1 therapy have been reported, and their characteristics are currently poorly described in the literature. The investigators sought to collect the French cases of BP triggered by antiPD-1/PDL-1 therapy, and to describe their clinical, biological and histological characteristics.

In this national, retrospective, observational study, investigators included patients treated with antiPD-1/PDL-1 therapy, with a diagnosis of bullous pemphigoid occurring during treatment or up to 12 months after its discontinuation. Diagnosis of BP was made by the dermatologist and was based on the following criteria: compatible clinical presentation, compatible histopathology findings, positive direct immunofluorescence (DIF) studies, positive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay BP180/enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay BP230.

Read the detailed description

All members of French study Group on Autoimmune Bullous Skin Diseases and French group of Onco-dermatology were asked to report cases of bullous pemphigoid induced by antiPD-1/PDL-1 therapy from 2014 to 2019. In this retrospective, observational cohort study, investigators included patients treated with PD-1 or PD-L1 inhibitor, with a diagnosis of bullous pemphigoid occurring during treatment or up to 12 months after its discontinuation. Diagnosis of BP was made by the dermatologist and was based on the following criteria developed by the French Bullous Study Group : compatible clinical presentation (absence of atrophic scars, absence of mucosal involvement and absence of predominant bullous lesions on the neck and head), compatible histopathology findings (subepidermal blister on skin biopsy; and linear deposits of IgG and C3 along the basement-membrane zone), positive DIF studies, positive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay BP180/enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay BP230. For each case, collected data were : sex, type of tumor, type of checkpoint inhibitor, age at the onset of the checkpoint inhibitor, time from the onset of BP compared to the onset of the PD-1 inhibitor, clinical presentation of BP, results of complementary exams (skin biopsies, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for BP180 and BP230 and indirect immunofluorescence studies if available); treatment of BP used, consequence on antiPD-1/PD-L1 therapy, course of the tumor, other irAEs. Overall tumor response was determined by the treating oncologist and classified using RECIST 1.1 (Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors).

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Clinical situation of the patient features

    Composite criteria consisting of the presence of prurit (Yes=0 or No=1). All the measure will give the rate of 0, the abnormal clinical situation

    Measured: One day

  2. Clinical situation of the patient features

    Composite criteria consisting of the presence of urticarial plaques (Yes=0 or No=1). All the measure will give the rate of 0, the abnormal clinical situation

    Measured: One day

  3. Clinical situation of the patient features

    Composite criteria consisting of the presence of the number of new blisters per day (less(=1) or more(=0) than 10). All the measure will give the rate of 0, the abnormal clinical situation.

    Measured: One day

  4. Clinical situation of the patient features

    Composite criteria consisting of eosinophil rate (more than the normal rate = 0 less =1). All the measure will give the rate of 0, the abnormal clinical situation.

    Measured: One day

  5. Clinical situation of the patient features

    Composite criteria consisting of the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for BP180 and BP230 presence =0 absence =1. All the measure will give the rate of 0, the abnormal clinical situation.

    Measured: One day

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. BP treatments

    Rate of corticosteroids, steroids-sparing drugs and other drugs

    Measured: One day

  2. Cancer evolution

    Rate of relapse remission death

    Measured: One day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Bullous Pemphigoid and Immunotherapy, run by Nantes University Hospital at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Nov 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Cécile JUZOT (33253482835, cecile.ju33@hotmail.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Clinical situation of the patient features (time frame: One day). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 24 Nov 2020.
