Successful Management of Tumor Lysis Syndrome Following Enfortumab Vedotin Plus Pembrolizumab Therapy in Metastatic Urothelial Carcinoma: A Case Report.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Enfortumab vedotin plus pembrolizumab (EV + P) shows high efficacy in metastatic urothelial carcinoma (mUC), potentially increasing tumor lysis syndrome (TLS) risk.

Case presentation

A 64-year-old man with mUC underwent surgery and adjuvant nivolumab after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Five months post-surgery, EV + P was initiated for recurrence with distant metastasis. Non-contrast computed tomography on Day 15 of therapy revealed marked regression of hepatic and pulmonary metastases and significant reduction of the iliac soft tissue mass, with no evidence of infection.
