Question 4
Two days before her third dose of ipilimumab, Mrs. AK experiences moderate diarrhea (5 stools per day over baseline) and is instructed to take anti-diarrheal treatment. What are the recommended next steps for this patient?
1. Withhold the third dose of ipilimumab 2. If the diarrhea has not subsided in a week despite anti-diarrheal treatment,
start Mrs. AK on systemic corticosteroids3. Resume ipilimumab if diarrhea resolves or becomes mild (3 or less bowel
movements over baseline)4. All of the above are appropriate recommendations
