Abstract :
Immune-mediated colitis is an uncommon but well-documented adverse event in patients receiving nivolumab or ipilimumabtherapy. In this report, we present a 69-year-old man who developed severe hypokalemia and colitis with significant correctedQ-T segment (QTc) prolongation as a result of combination nivolumab-ipilimumab immunotherapy for clear cell renal cellcarcinoma.
