Corticosteroid-dependent immune checkpoint inhibitor-induced enterocolitis treated with vedolizumab: a case report.
Article in Journal of gastrointestinal oncology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Background: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have greatly improved the survival in several cancers. Immune-related adverse events (irAEs) are common in patients on ICI therapy, as inhibition of cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA-4) or programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) leads to non-selective activation of the immune system. ICI-induced enterocolitis is highly prevalent and corticosteroid administration is the first-line treatment. Selective immunosuppressive therapy was employed for steroid-refractory patients. The monoclonal antibody vedolizumab exhibits gut-specific immunosuppressive effects by targeting the α4β7 integrin. Case Description: We report a case of corticosteroid-dependent camrelizumab-induced enterocolitis in a 58-year-old man with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who was treated with vedolizumab. The patient's diarrhea resolved following the administration of two doses of vedolizumab (300 mg), and he was able to stop using corticosteroids. He later underwent surgery and HCC treatment, including appropriate management of ICI-induced enterocolitis, and achieved a complete pathological response. Conclusions: This report illustrates the valuable role of vedolizumab in treating ICI-induced enterocolitis that is refractory to corticosteroid treatment.
