Abstract
Both anti-PD1 and anti-PDL1 therapies can lead to psoriasis exacerbation although more severe flares were noted in patients treated with durvalumab. Not only personal but also related family history of psoriasis are significant risk factors and need to be outlined before treatment initiation. If such related history exists, strict skin surveillance can lead to the early diagnosis and treatment of any psoriatic exacerbations that could otherwise severely affect quality of life or even compromise therapeutic protocols and final prognosis.
