Thyroid Dysfunction After Intensity-Modulated Radiotherapy and PD&#x2043;1 Inhibitor Treatment for Locally Advanced Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma by Shang K, He Q, Xu X, Luo X, Zhao C, Liu L, Li Z, Li Y, Jin F

“…Patients with thyroid dysfunction had longer overall survival, progression-free survival, and distant metastasis-free survival at both one and two years compared to patients with normal thyroid function, but the difference was not statistically significant (p > 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that pretreatment lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) (p = 0.079) is an independent predictor of thyroid dysfunction after radiotherapy in combination with immunotherapy for LA-NPC.Conclusion: The study found that the addition of immunotherapy increases the risk and shortens the onset time of thyroid dysfunction in LA-NPC patients treated with chemoradiotherapy. …”
