“…After irAE treatment, KL-6 levels in steroid-responsive patients remained unchanged; however, steroid-unresponsive patients had a significant increase in KL-6 levels at 1 month (1078 U/mL, p=0.031) compared with at irAE onset (678.0 U/mL). In Group 2, 24 patients (20.3%) developed irAE pneumonitis, with KL-6 levels elevated (pre: 360.5 U/mL, post: 506.5 U/mL, p=0.029) and an AUC of 0.683, indicating that KL-6 was less reliable in patients with NSCLC.Conclusions KL-6 is a viable screening biomarker in ICI-induced pneumonitis, particularly in patients without NSCLC. …”
