Abstract | Blockade of immune checkpoints has transformed the therapy of several cancers. However, immune-related adverse events (irAEs) have emerged as a major challenge limiting the clinical application of this approach. B cells are recognized as major players in the pathogenesis of human autoimmunity and have been successfully targeted to treat these disorders. While T cells have been extensively studied as therapeutic targets of immune checkpoint blockade (ICB), these checkpoints also impact B cell tolerance. Blockade of immune checkpoints in the clinic is associated with distinct changes in the B cell compartment that correlate with the development of irAEs. In this review, we focus on the possible role of humoral immunity, specifically human B cell subsets and autoantibodies in the pathogenesis of ICB-induced irAEs. There remains an unmet need to better understand the T:B cell cross talk underlying the activation of pathogenic B cells and the development of ICB-induced irAEs. Such studies may identify new targets or approaches to prevent or treat irAEs and improve the application of ICB therapy in cancer. |
