ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVES:

Kelch-like protein-11 (KLHL11)-IgG is associated with rhombencephalitis and seminoma. It has not previously been described as a neurologic immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI)-related adverse event (nirAE) or in association with esophageal adenocarcinoma.

METHODS:

We describe a 61-year-old man with metastatic esophageal adenocarcinoma treated with folinic acid, fluorouracil, oxaliplatin (FOLFOX), and nivolumab, who subsequently developed diplopia, vertigo, and progressive gait ataxia after 8 weeks of treatment.

RESULTS:

Owing to a concern for ICI-associated myasthenia gravis, nivolumab was held and he was treated with prednisone and pyridostigmine. EMG showed no neuromuscular junction dysfunction, and acetylcholine-receptor antibodies were negative. Brain MRI was unrevealing. Murine brain tissue immunofluorescence assay revealed KLHL11-IgG in both serum and CSF, confirmed by cell-based assay. Tumor histopathology demonstrated poorly differentiated, highly proliferative adenocarcinoma with increased mitotic figures and cytoplasmic KLHL11 immunoreactivity. He was initiated on 6 months of cyclophosphamide in addition to FOLFOX for post-ICI-associated KLHL11-IgG rhombencephalitis.

DISCUSSION:

We report KLHL11-IgG rhombencephalitis associated with poorly differentiated esophageal cancer as a novel nirAE. Tumor staining revealed KLHL11 immunoreactivity, supporting a cancer-antigen-driven ICI-associated paraneoplastic syndrome. Recognition of novel nirAEs can expedite treatment and potentially prevent progressive neurologic disability.
